The Crickets won the _ baseball 
game last Saturday on the Brook 
street playgrounds, with the May- 
flowers as their opponents. The 
score was 5 to 4 and was plainly the 
locals from the 1st inning. Rust, the 
first man up lead off with a two- 
bagger, Gray, next man up put it 
over the road for a home run. Then 
Dunbar, third man up got another 
great ovation, as he jogged around 
the bases, having put the ball away 
over Norwood avenue into the 
brook beyond. This gave the Crick- 
ets a lead of three runs. Dunbar’s 
and Gray’s batting were clearly the 
features of the game. Crocker 
pitched an excellent game and fin- 
ished up a season of good work for 
the Crickets. Dunbar was in ex- 
cellent form as usual. Both men 
played exceptionally good ball. The 
games have been a source of great 
pleasure all summer for the resi- 
dents who have showed their appre- 
ciation by their regular attendance. 
The Crickets are planning on giv- 
ing a dance in honor of the May- 
flower baseball team next week.

A Dome of Marble. 
Some day, too, there will be a 
marble dome placed on the Capitol 
instead of the iron dome which now 
covers the rotunda. The architects 
are practically a unit in saying that 
marble is the only proper material 
of which to construct the dome. 
Tron shrinks and expands in a man- 
ner which is distressing. Leaks re- 
sult, and these are patched by strips 
of canvas painted over. Undoubt- 
edly the dome will be replaced some 
day, and it was intended to bring 
this matter before Congress at this 
session, but the pressure of debate 
on the tariff caused it to be post- 
poned. Possibly it may come up at 
the next session, and during the long 
recess two years from now, if every- 
thing goes well, work may actually 
be commenced on the gigantic task 
of putting a new roof over the 
great rotunda where tourists now 
stand and gaze in wrapt awe at the 
paintings on the concave surface so 
far above their heads. 
T heard a raven croak, but I persuaded 
myself it was the song of the nightin- 
gale. I smelled the smell of the mould, 
but thought of the violets it nourished.

If I have faltered more or less 
In my great task of happiness; 
If I have moved among my race 
And shown no glorious morning face; 
If beams from happy human eyes 
Have moved me not; if morning skies, 
Books, and my food, and summer ram 
Knocked on my sullen heart in vain:— 
Lord, Thy most pointed pleasure take 
And stab my spirit broad awake; 
Or, Lord, if too obdurate I, 
Choose Thou, before that spirit die, 
A piercing pain, a killing sin, 
And to my dead heart run them in! 
—Robert Louis Stevenson.
