Dann Deever —Damrosch. Banjo Song—Sidney Homer. Monticello 40. e SL Joseph’s 9. At Monticello Friday night, the Varsity demonstrated that they can lo'se on a small floor. Being only the third defeat of a strenuous season does not mar their record much. This was the hardest and toughest proposition the team has been up against. Had it not been that they defeated the same team earlier in the season, there would have been a better accounting for the crushing defeat at the hands of the militia company. Winter had to be taken out at the very outset of the game because of a badly crushed nose; that crippled the team’s spirit; Mr. Ardle was forced to quit the man should have been taken out there but there was no substitute to take his place; that weakened the defensive. Against all these and other odds the Varsity showed the true St. Joe spirit and fought gamely to the bitter end. St. Joseph’s 51. Lafayette Hebron C. 12 With three regulars missing in the line up the Varsity entertained the Lafayette visitors in the college gymnasium Sunday afternoon. The visitors were by far heavier, but with their fast pass work the Collegians lan rings around them on the big floor. Elven the Purdue men that were in the game could not save the day. At no time was the game in flanged, and the only inspiration that kept the team from lagging was the fact that the Varsity went into the KOJrnd half determined to reach the half century mark. Every St. Joe player scored points, but Reicherte starred with ten field goals to his credit.

CAP, THE FIRE DOG

Cap had lived with the firemen ever since he coulcL remember. He had been brought to the station when he was only a little puppy, and every fireman loved him and declared that Cap was the wisest dog that he had ever seen. One fireman had taught Cap to stand on his back feet and say, “Bow-wow!” whenever he was hungry. ~ Another fireman had taught him to scratch the floor below the water faucet and bark whenever he was thirsty. He could walk on his back feet, drink from the fire hose, and drag the hose about whenever he was told to do so. The chief of the flra department said that Cap could do more “tricks” than any dog he bad ever seers, and the best one of all he had learned to do without ever having been told how to do it. The firemen slept upstairs over the station in long rows of white beds, and, whenever the fire bell rang in the night, the firemen would spring from their beds, dress before you could say “Jack Robinson,’’ run to. the four large holes in the floor, and come sliding down the poles one after another: then they would run to the horses, which at the Sound of the bell had found their places in front of the engine, the hose-cart, the hook-and-ladder wagon, and the chief's cart, buckle on the harness, and each’fireman" would spring into place ready to drive away to the fire. Cap longed to slide doWn the poles as the firemen did, but of course that was something no dog could do. So, if he happened to be upstairs, as he often was, when the fire bell rang in the daytime, ho would run to the stairway, clear the steps at three bounds, and spring to his place on the seat beside the chief. But at night Cap stayed downstairs, sleeping very near the telephone and fire bell; and, when the alarm sounded, the firemen -would hear Cap’s loud “Bow-wow!” almost as soon as they heard the bell, and, no matter how quickly they dressed, they would always find Cap in his place ahead of them. “He is the best fireman in the station," the chief would sometimes say. “He is always dressed and ready for work.” And the firemen would laugh and pat Cap’s head, and say that, if they slept ih their clothes as Cap did, they, too, would be ready and in their place* in one minute.

But no fireman ever slept after the bell rang, and not one of them was ever known to say, “Wait a minute,” or, “I am too sleepy to go.” Even the horses would run to their places the Instant they heard the bell, so Cap thought it his place to do th* same. One night there was a great storm, and something happened to the tele, phone and fire bells, so that they could not ring; and, in thp night time, when all was dark and still and all the firemen and the fire horses were sound asleep, a house caught fire, and the policeman on the street corner ran to the telephone to call the firemen out. The fire bell tried its best to ring; but, instead of a loud “Ding-a-ling,” could say nothing mote than “BH,” Not a fireman heard it. Not even a fire horse moved. “Bs-«-z!” said the bell again, and suddenly Gap opened his eyes, and with a loud “Bow-wow-wow ! M sprang to his place in the chief’s cart. 7 1 - The fireman rolled out of their bode, and each one asked: “Did you hear that? Did the fire ben rings" And the answer came: “No, It was only Cap barking; but he to certainly saying ’fire.’ We had better dress and slide down and see about it” "Bow-wow! bow-wow-wow I” barked Cap. “B-s-e-sI” said the bell just as the first fireman camo sliding down the pole. “Flrol” shouted the fireman. “Cap wae right. Oome on!” And in a moment there was a clattering of many hoofs as the fire horses dashed to their places, the jingling of harness as it dropped into place on the horses’ backs, shouts of “Fire, keep out of the street!" from the policeman In front of the station, and “clang, clang, clang!" from the gongs of the engine, the hose cart, the hook-and-ladder wagon, and the chief's wt m they duhed away down the street. The fire was soon found and put out; and. when the people who lived in the burping house came out to thank the firemen, the chief patted Cap on the head and aald: “Do not thank us. Thank Cap. He is the best fireman of us all.” And Cap, who had never for one moment ceased his “Bow-wow-wow!” wagged hie tall and said, dog fashion. “I did the best I could, but I am not a fireman, I am only Cap, the fire dog.” —Mdna Bverett, in Kindergarten Review.

THRE IS NO PLACE LIKE IT

■ W V ■ “Home!”; said Mr*- -Lummy. “Home at last!” She opened one of the long-closed rhutters and made a careful examination of the house to her right, S “The Blumers have a new pair of curtains in their upstairs ball; they have had the -floor of their piazza painted and another brick has fallen off their chimney.” ? £. . “Poor devils-!” said Mr. Lummy from behind his coat of tan, “they couldn’t go away.” ' Mrs. Lummy opened another shutter and made a careful examination of the house to her left. “Hum!” she said. - “Well?” said Mr. Lummy, with impatience. . “Somebody has bought a new lawnmower!” she exclaimed, with scraping sarcasm. “Well, well!” said Mr. Lummy bitterly. “And a new garden hose.” “Somebody,” said Mr. Lummy more bitter than before, “is getting quite gay in their old age.” Mrs. Lummy closed the shutter with an emphasis of marked displeasure and, sitting down with a good comfortable bounce, she opened her mouth and yawned to a frightful extent. “O-o-o-o-o!” she yawned, making the exclamation a staccato one by clapping her hand on and off her mouth with every evidence of enjoyment, “but it’s good to be home!” “Yes,” said Mr. Lummy fretfully, “but you needn’t yawn so blessed much!” “William Lummy!” she cried with spirit, “I’ll give you to understand that I shall yawn all I please in my own house. Why, ihere have been times this summer waen I have nearly died because I couldn't yawn when I felt it. O-o-o-o-o!” she yawned again, closing her eyes and using her right hand, and “O-o-o-o!” she repeated using her left hand. She opened her eyes,to see how he was taking it and cried at once: “William Lummy!” “Well?” growled that gentleman. “Here I am.” She merely looked ajt him, all eyes and indignation. “Well?” he asked again, raising his voice a few notes. “What is it?" “You know right well what it is!” she cried. ” , “No worse than your yawning!” be cried back. “William Lummy, you take your foot off that chair this instant! This instant!” “Well, then, you stop yawning!” • “I shall yawn all I want to!” “All right; then I shall put my foot on the chair all I want to.” “No, you wont!” “Yes, I shall!” “No, you won’t!” “Yes, I shall!” “No, you won’t!” “Yes, I shall!” , And with an impudent look Mr. Lummy threw his other foot upon a chair and gazed at his wife in suck a tantalizing way that she arose to her feet, her back comb trembling with indignation and enjoying herself immensely. “William Lummy!” said she, “for the last time! You will either take your feet put of those chairs or else you will take the consequences!” And her eyes flashed so that, the back of William's neck .cease 1 to ex-, ert a pressure against his collar and he faintly grumbled: “Well, if you’ll stop yawning——” '“I shall stop yawning, or I shall not stop yawning, just as I please, but if you ” Sowly and reluctantly Mr. Lummy’s feet came out of their respective chairs. “There!” cried Mrs. Lummy, beaming. ‘Now I’ll make you a lemon pie for dinner!” She leaned Ovor, embraced him fondly and with the light of victory still in her eyes she paused in the door on her way to the kitchen and turned around, seying: “Isn’t it good to be home again!” —New York Sun.

Legend of Magpie and Robin.

The peasants of France, in accordance .with a tradition, pierce the head of a magpie with a thorn whenever they catch one. According to the French legend, after Jesus had been nailed to the cross two birds alighted on the extended arms of the Instrument of death. One was a magpie with a beautiful aigrette on Its head and a long waving tail, then the handsomest of birds but the wickedest, chirping insult at th* suffering Jesu*. The other bird was a modest little biyd with gray plumage, which approached the cross timidly, uttering cries of grief. With its beak it tried to pluck away one of the thorns. A single drop of th* blood fell on the pitying little gray bird and gave the'Tobln redbreast
