THE EXCELSIORIC UMPIRE.
The crowd was gathering thick and fast
As from the outside inside passed
A man who stood up, strong and proud,
And in a brave voice shouted loud.
"Play ball!"
His brow was sod ; his eye beneath
Flashed like a falchion from Its sheath,
And like a silver clarion rung
The accents of that well-known tongue:
"One strike!"
In many an eye he saw the light
That warned him how to shape the fight;
Beyond, the spectral bleachers shone. '
And from his lips escaped a groan:
"One ball!"
"Let up on that," one bleacher said,
Another yelled: "We'll punch your head!"
And forty yelled: "(Jo soak your hide!"
And loud that clarion voice replied:
"Two balls!"
"Oh, stay," a small boy guyed, "and rest
Your weary head upon this breast."
A tear stood lit his bright blue eye
As now be answered with a sigh:
"Two strikes!"
"Beware the pine tree's withered branch;"
"Beware the awful avalanche!"
These were the grandstand's words and he
Braced up and shoutod lustily:
"Three strikes and out."
" " the bleachors yell.

pleted so that all connections may be

weeks. The board of health will Issue

been known as the worst drained dis
trict on the West Side, and the sanitary
condition of the many crowded dwell

ter of comment. The sewer has been
laid at a great depth and has been de
signed to accommodate all properties
bounding on Dockor's court, so that no
further grounds for complaint will
exist. 1

LITTLE RED SC1IOOLIIOUSE.
For The Tribune.
How oft to the mind comes a dream of
past summers;
How wide an expanse In the fond heart
they nil;
There Is one I recall as my thoughts
backward wander
Thut I spent In the schoolhouse just un
der the hill.
A dream of sweet summer as spuing time
Is dawning.
E'en now as I ponder my heart seems to
thrill
As I listen In fancy to voices of children,
And tho notes of sweot warblers Just
under tho hill.
The little red schoolhouse with white'
blinded windows,
The natlonnl colors that festoon the wall,
The trees that o'crspread It, the huge
rocks around It
Ah! each In its own way fond mom'rles
.recall.
Rut the days have gone by and the chll
dren aro scattered
Who gathered each morning In that little
hall.
I hear as I'm looking the well-known plaoe
over,
Each voice as It gladly responds to roll
call.
Yes, the years have gone by and no more
will thoy gather,
Who glnddened my heart that bright
summer, until
The "Cirund ltoll" shall be called, when I
pray all may answer
Who have sut In the sohoolhouse Just
under the hill, Loah,

FASHIONS IN FEET.
Tho Natural Ronnty of tho Foot Ohsourdo
by Modern Shoes.
The fashionable idea of a fine foot Is
something quite at variance with the artis
tic one. Any person who saw the civilized
foot only when shod an Inhabitant of
Mars come among us, let us say, If such
a thing could be might suppose It was a
slender wedge-shaped thing tapering to a
point, and with a most singular projec
tion under the heel bone. Why we should
think that sort of a foot flno or desirable
Is a riddle that can no more be answered
than tho riddle proposed by the Sphinx.
Every great sculptor, says Harper's Iia
sar, has had a very different opinion. The
foot on no choice statue Is either slender
or small; It Is of a slzo fit to support tho
flsure: It is Arm. with rounded munclnii.
and like that which has never been oom
pressed out of Its primitive shape by any
slow process of wear. Although the san
dal was ch lolly worn In the days when the
great statues first saw the light, yet the
Greek women did wear shoes also, and
foet distorted by too close covering were
not unknown; but the sculptors perfectly
well understood that nothing was gained
by disproportion; they made no effort to
have the foot small, only to have It per
fect, as Trilby's foot was perfect. It Is In
the freedom or the foot the sandal gav
that we always fancy Diana and her
nymphs and the gods and goddesses mov
Ing with fine and elastic tread, the strong
free tread which we sometimes see on the
stage.
The shoes of today are certainly unlovely
and Inartistic. We have a-llowed shoe
makers and not artists to contrive them;
we And ourselves enduring them because
they are neat, chic, and also because they
are expensive. And perhaps It Is because
In our Inner consciousness we know they
are ugly that we want to have as little of
them us possible, and So wear them as
small as may bo, and give ourselves all
sorts of distress In doing so.
Hut it Is not only the shoe which Is toe
small that Is unfortunate; that which is
too largo Is Just as well able to rub up a
blister and make a corn as that which
tits like a vise. Still, If a shoe fits the
foot at tho heel, and Is exactly close
enough over and under the instep, Its ex
tremity may be as large as one will; for
the foot, being held firmly In place at the
Instep, cannot move or work about, and so
receives no rubbing or Injury of the sort
resulting from a too loose or too large
shoe.
No one can feel well whose feet ache or
burn, or torment and disturbs him In any
way, and articles of wear that suit exactly
are the only ones to prevent such discom
fort. It is to be rememberod, however,
that stocking which does not fit is quite
the equal of a shoo for muklng trpuble.
But a shoe or boot should always be of
soft leather, stiffened at the heel and un
der the solo of the instep; and a boot Is
always butter than a shoe, both for
warmth and for support, and because It
supports the ankle and prevents the mus
cle there from working to such a degree
as to Increase In slsc, and because It also
upholds the calf of the leg, and binders It
from running down and doubling the mon.

Ho Was Interested.
From Wochenblatt.
Kruu von 8., well known for her kind
ness and generosity, was waited upon the
other day by a well dressed gentleman,
who spoke to her as follows:
"I wish to draw your attention, madam,
to tho sad ease of a poor family. Tne
father Is weak and advanced in years, tho
mother Is bedridden, und their five little
children are clamoring for bread. The
poor creatures arq about to bo turned Into
the street with tholr wretched belongings,
unless somebody will undertake to pay
their arrears of rent, amounting to SO
marks.
Frau von S. at once went to fetch tho
money. Handing It to her visitor, she
said:
"Now, sir, I should like to know who
you are, as you seem to take so warm an
interest in them?"
"I am their landlord, madam!"
