...game was played under nearly perfect weather conditions before an enthusiastic crowd of about six thousand persons. Princeton won by heavy batting in the first four innings, when all their runs were scored. Harvard had nearly as many hits, but most of them came with one or two men out. The fielding was rather erratic on both sides. Kernan was substituted for Stillman in the fourth inning and did excellent work, allowing but two hits, and no runs during the remainder of the game. Reid strained his leg in the first inning, but played nearly all of the game, being...

The inner corona was visible in the telescope some seconds after...

His home run brought in three others in the eighth inning, and his single made it possible for Kendall to score in the first. He gave Stillman perfect support, threw well to second, and in the third inning made a remarkable double play by catching Steinwender's foul near the backstop and throwing to second in time to retire Watkins. Devens hit the ball hard every time he came to bat, but was twice put out by the good...

Special efforts will be made next fall to increase the value of the furniture loan system by thoroughly overhauling the sets and putting them in perfect repair.
