The weak battiDg, and rather loose battery work of the Seniors gave a comparatively easy victory to the Juniors, where many expected the reverse. liidley pitched a very much bet ter game than when against the Sophs, and showed good nerve at critical points. Halsey made a beautiful catch, running from sec ond far into left, and at the bat made the best game average of the year, thus far. Butler in left, and Brown at short, distinguished themselves, playing with snap and certainty. The following is the ecore: JUNIORS at his mercy. In the seventh inning no longer restrain their tears and Stubbs went behind the bat, and | it was only by a passed ball nml a for one unused to the position did wild throw to first that they were well. His throwing to bases is su- allowed to tie the score. POSITIONS. a. n. K. B. II. I*. O. A. K.

It is a faot that the outfielders on the class teams are some on fly alls, but cannot handle grounders, thus often allowing two and three bases on base hits. AMICABLY SETTLED. It is a source of regret that the game of ball between the Sophs and Freshmen on Thursday afternoon last should have been interrupted by an unfortunate misunderstanding between Messrs. Claude Fleming of the Sophomore team and Chis holm Ferrell of tho Fresh team. It occurred in tho 7th inning, whuu Mr. Ferrell, who was near the play ers bench, interferred, as Mr. Fluiu iog thought, with a fowl ti.'t knocked, making him miss it. He then approached Mr. Ferrell and struck him a blow in tho face, when bystanders separated them. It was shown, however, that Mr. Ferrell did not intentionally interfere with the hall, and Mr. Fleming realizing that lie had acted hastily, anil while under the heat of passion, tendered a full and acceptable apology. Mr. Ferrell, however, thought that while an appology was acceptable ill j cases of affront or misrepresenta tion, did not think it could settle an insult mid blow.
