You can do that I' "Sparklo Spry did as he was bid , but though he brought the wood as fast as he could , ho found Ulat he couldn't bring I fast ' enough.

Mr. Corcoran went early and sat hot Car from his dear friend , the spcker. lie loved 1r , Webster a a brother. _ With deep-set eye flashing Intensely : with a deep , sonorous voice , rInging through the crowded senate chamber , Mr. Webster flashed his eloquence upon the waiting , silent listeners. On and on flowed his uninterrupted , magIcal words. . Mr. Corcoran watched and listened Intent- ly. lie , salll to a' senator \Iho \ sit near him , when Mr. Webster took l l ; seat "That man's Came will culve this marble capitol : no accounts wonder ho !

Mr. Webster sImply said : "Whnt a royal gift from a royal frendl" : UuUor 5t"i ; A magnificent new game tor boys especi- ally and also those of a larger growth Is "roller bal , " and elubare.now , being formed In all parts of,1 chtI'ttind some few In New York City to play the game. Briefly It Is a species at toot bal , but Is played wIth the hands , and thersfrew He-g vlng every opportunity for activity ' and display , . It Is not so dangerous or so . rough. I Is , how- ever no girl's game. The ground on which It Is played Is a fell not less than 300 feet long br 160 feet wide , and It Is marked ol With whitewash so as to clearly define the outer ibnite. At each end are the ordinary toot bal goal posts , ant the bal Is a large leather bal like a foot ball . but perfectly round , about thlrty- sx : Inches In diameter. and wchhln twelve ! pounds or more. In the game this b:1 must not be kicked either with the ' feet or the legs although I It bounds , whIch Is very seldom It may bs force forward by the In- terventon or the body " front which It will rebound. A kick of any description counts 110 poInts against the side klcldng Tackling between hip and neck Is allowed , and personal - sonal Interference by placing the body be- tween the attempting roller and the bal , but no "haeldng" or "running trIp" Is allowed , and only the player right at the bal may be taclded. I will thus be seen that the element of accident ( of a more serIous nature than a bruise or a alight sprain , Is reduced to a mlmlmum. Bloven players for , a side Is the , correct I number but boys will , play any number and' ' have fun. The two sides toss for position , and then line up In the center of the field , each side ten yards distant from ' the ball , which lies In the very center. The word Is given by the umpro : and one boy from each side rushes at the ball , the others remaining - maining motionless until the bal Is touched These two start the play and the first one to reach the bal gives It a "spat" with lila hand to one side , or straight , as seems best , and away go the rest ' of the players trying t. drive It with their hands only , to the op- lonents' goal , or to a touch down , which Is marked the same as In , foot bal The only scoring Is a goal 4 , or a touch down 2. The latter gives the right to punt for goal , and then the players arrange them- selves as In foot bI xcept that the punt- lag side select theIr two tallest men and these two hold the ball high hi the air between - i twoen them while the most skilful player ' on their side tallos , a short run , tnd with his hand knocks the bal from their hand over the crossbar. The , game Is played In ten- minute halves with five minutes intermnis' slon betwEen each half , and , It will be found that this time yil ) , jyj. . ! hJ.hio , " play the average player can sLnl . n.s hustle from start to finish , not child's play , but full of magnificent energy , and " 'strateglc expertness. . . . , 'rLl .

A MORNING ALAHM. That my readers may obtaIn : n Idea at the system or fire extnguishment by whIch the lives and property of New Yorlers'are protected - tected and of the way In whIch men like Dresnan and Hooney go aleut their work , let us suppose that on a cold rainy morning a sle watchman . , making the rounds ot an uptown hotel , discovers that a fire has broken out In a storeroom al one of the upper floors and that the flames , already beyond control , are spreadIng rapidly The nIght clerk , dozing In his easy chair behind the marble counter In the gorgeously decorated lobby down lalrs , hears the dreaded cry cr at fro and bidding a servant ring the alarm lt fre.And once lal < cJ qUick time to the scene of the And whlb the watchman Is arousing the guests on the upper floors with his warning shouts , the servant rushes bareheaded across the way to the street lamp with the red glass . opens the alarm box and by simply pulling a hook transmits what Is called a " lrst alarm. . " It Is to meet ' such I precisely emergencies ns this that the alarm boxes were so ar- rahged that anyone who discovers a fire can ring a first alarm , while only the proper officials are entrusted with the keys b ) means ot which the second and third alarms , which summon more trucks and engInes , are sent out. The message sent from the alarm box Is carrIed to' the department headquarters In Sixty-seventh street , where operator are al- wars on duty , and Eent Crom there to thc companies whose quarter are nearest to the poInt from which the alarm came. There are two gongs In each company's quarters , and In order to prevent ns tar as possible any mistake , two la-rma , are sent , one by means ot an ordlnary.sltch l ( and another by al Ingenious autontatic' machi toe.
