the jagged edge of a rock. The wind blew her fair hair over the cruel gash; the snow drank up the blood which flowed slowly, drop by drop.
When the guide came back with two men from the ranch, he found her dead and half-covered by the drifted snow. They buried her there on the mountain, tenderly straightening the rigid limbs and closing the blue eyes still full of piteous appeal. On her grave was placed a wooden headboard, bearing her name and the date of her death.
In summer time many tourists stare curiously at the rudely carved inscription, and listen in wondering silence to the story told by the guide. But when winter comes the mountain is free from all intruders. Then the great winds sing in unison a mournful miserere; the gray wolf slinks across the grayer rocks and on a lonely grave, marked by a simple headboard, lie the fairy flowers of the snow.

K. U. vs. Haskell.
The third game between the Haskell Institute boys and the K. U. team, on Saturday last, clearly demonstrated that the Indians are outclassed by the University team. They won the first game early in the season, and almost before the K. U. boys had become acquainted with one another. The second and third games have been easy victories for our team. This does not belittle the Haskell boys who are a splendid lot of ball players, and in the past have been able to hold their own against the University teams. It simply emphasizes the fact that this year's team is the superior of any aggregation K. U. has been able to get together.
Saturday's game was a pretty exhibition despite the miserable fielding of the Indians. Our boys played a splendid game both in the field and at the bat. Gear added another laurel to his merited crown by holding the hard left-handed batters down to nine scattered hits. For the first five innings they made only three hits from his delivery. Kelsey caught his regular brilliant game. Mitchell had a quiet time at first, but got even at the bat with a two-bagger and a three base hit, the latter coming in the second inning with two men on bases. Alden kept up his good work at second and got in another three bagger. The double play of Williamson and Mitchell in the second inning was the feature of the game.
For the Indians Augusta pitched excellent ball, as he is prone to do. In the third inning he struck out Agnew, Chamberlain and Wagner in order. He was well backed up by the old war horse, Buckhart. Marian, on first, played like a foreigner, and the whole out-field acted as if they were on sentinel duty. Ogee is a remarkable player who is continually making sensational plays, but is as uncertain as the Kansas rains.
