Two of Milan's most self reliant croquette cranks assumed to scalp some Mooreville urchins even upon the public arched arena. Af ter three separate attempts the reliants retired crest fallen and dejected minus a plume. The kids did them proud placing them in line with our ball team. The spectators intimated that the balls had absorbed so much egotism that they could not pass those barn-door arehes. Not a run in ball, not a rover in croquette, the protest against Milan's making any more public exhibits. Give us oblivion, sweet oblivion!
