D 2 The Nebraskan-Hesperian GLEANED PROM EXGHANGES. The ode to the meerschaum brown, And the clay with Its coat of jet, Were writ Dy a man who never could bear The scent of a pipe or a good cigar, Not oven a cigarette. And the sonnet to rare old wlno Was composed by a temperance younth Who was bursting with rhyme Of the hlgh-old-tlmo, Yet never was full, In sooth, Of the fluid that lightens the heart And gladens the gloomiest day, And colors the nose Like the rich, red rose To frighten the horrors away.

A BASE BALL IDYL. She sits on the bleachers and watches him play, She knows he's a hero, he thinks he's a jay. But he's king of the diamond, a Fresh man at that, A corking good baseman, a fiend at the bat, And Cupid, the sinner, I blush for his namef With the two youthful hearts is play ing a game. When the last man Is out, the game Is all o'er, I'll bet then Dan Cupid has captured the score. 15 HOURS AND 10 MINUTES, LIMCOLM TO CHICAGO Vim The mwlhwtit, ...IS A GREAT SUCCESS...
