...both teams, '89 excelling in the number of errors. Downer pitched a winning game for his nine, but the support given him was wretched, both in the field and at the bat. Magee and Downer did all the batting for the juniors. For '88, Bailey and Stetson played well in the field, while Allen and Holden excelled at the bat. McLean '90, umpired very acceptably to both nines, being strictly impartial and showing good judgment on close decisions. Eighty-nine plays the freshmen Thursday on Jarvis. The score...

...Harvard, and he pitched a remarkable game for a man with so little experience. It was his first championship game, but he pitched like a veteran, striking out no less than sixteen men. With the exception of the first two innings, he was well supported, and this, combined with numerous errors by Princeton, won the game for Harvard. Although Harvard was outbatted, her errors were not costly, while Princeton's errors resulted in runs for her opponents. It was distinctly a game of pitchers, and had King received the support he deserved be would have won the game. W. Price...

He reached second on a pretty steal, took third on Knowlton's sacrifice and scored on Willard's two-base hit to centre. Willard was left at centre by Henshaw's easy grounder to Wagenhurst. With two men out in the ninth, Mercur made a hit to right...

...keenly interested in the story of "The Reverend Ambrose Wilson." The plot is less worthy than the treatment, and were it not for an unsuspected turn at the end, would seem shallow. The ins and outs of country churches, however, must have been observed to have been so well portrayed. The essay on Philip Dormer Stanhope, fourth Earl of Chesterfield, though instructive, well written, and displaying in its argument original thought, seems somewhat out of place, in the field which the Advocate has chosen. "Carmen" needs a second reading to be appreciated. The author's conception is delicate; his expression...
