...cheering with a three base hit, and scored on a passed ball. Humphreys struck out. Wright and Brooks both got their bases on balls, and Trenchard was hit by a pitched ball. The Princeton cheers at this point were beyond description. Guild came to the bat and did his level best to pound out a home run, but Frothingham fielded the ball beautifully and threw him out at first. Harvard got two more runs in her half of the eighth, and thus ended the scoring for Harvard...

For the last year they have been in an indifferent condition, while at the present time, there is not a level alley, nor are there more than two or three good balls or pins in all of the alleys.

It is over 8000 feet above the sea level and is especially fortunate in the remarkable steadiness of the air and the clearness of the sky. The Bashe telescope was mounted and during the year, 1224 photographs have been taken. The thirteen-inch equatorial - which is the largest refracting telescope in the southern hemisphere - was also mounted and, although...
