...Patten sailed late in March on the "Seneca," whose duty is to patrol the southern limits of the ice fields and to warn steamers of any danger. A few days after sailing the first of the icebergs was met. These icebergs are over a year old, coming down from Greenland a year ago, and, although growing smaller in the warmer water, many of them will be carried back to the north and will regain their size. The "Seneca" also encountered miles of "slop" ice-fields, the largest being nine miles square...

Wentworth, who has been in special training for the past month, is known, to be a speedy pitcher, and McGraw, of the Giants, says there is nobody like him. The captain of the Kappas refused up to a late hour last night to make known his final choice for today's slab artist; but it is rumored that there is a dark horse not mentioned in the line-up. The teams will approach the plate as follows: PHI BETA KAPPA. LAMPOON. Davis, c. 2b., Thayer Harwood, s.s. 3b., Connell...
