...result of yesterday's game was more than the most sanguine could expect. The nine played an admirable game at the bat and a variable game - both brilliant and bad in the field. Our battery worked with wonderful effect and the whole nine showed snap and cool calculation at the right moments. Such a victory as we gained yesterday recalls our career on the diamond two years ago and makes us look to the final result of the series with more assurance. Every man in the nine should receive warm applause of the whole college...

...ideas embodied in both essays would not suffer from greater elaboration. The best bit of writing in this issue is undoubtedly a sketch, "Mr. Blanc," which shows maturity of thought and excellent mastery of language. The task of describing a character is accomplished without the usual effect of wearying the reader. The idea of the whole sketch resembles in a way Hawthorne's "Christmas Banquet." Two stanzas on "A Dead Girl" are full of charm; the idea of death being "beguiled" by her smile is such a one as might have occurred to Heine. A rambling poorly-told story entitled...

The college has suffered long enough for the squabbles and corrupt performances of the Union. That society, unless something is done to stay its progress, is, as one of its own members declared at a recent meeting, "fast degenerating into...

...composite photograph of the voices of '88 and '89, taken during yesterday's game, would be a curiosity. The junior picture would have a sky-rocketty effect, due to the introduction of the Princeton cheer, while that of '89 would have a lurid background and a leaden finish. McPherson established a good record for himself in the box, but Gallivan's three-bagger in the eighth knocked off a finger-nail and forced him to withdraw. Eighty-nine put in Downer in his place, after some little discussion, and the '88 men nearly knocked the ball to pieces. That eighth...
