YALE WINS SERIES,
Better All-Round Play Gives Her the
Final Game With Princeton.
The University’s confidence in Cap-
tain Greenway was justified for the sec-
ond time, when the final game with
Princeton went to Yale last Saturday in
New York. This Princeton series has
been one of the most satisfactory a
Yale baseball team has ever played.
Everybody realized that the home team
did not do themselves justice in the
New Haven game, when they were so
badly defeated. Good judges said Yale
would do better at Princeton the next
Saturday, even though the Princeton
team would be backed up by a Com-
mencement crowd. It all depended
upon whether Greenway could pitch or
not. In spite of a bad arm he went
into the box, and by his steadying ef-
fect on the team and excellent play,
the game was won. So sure was
Princeton of a favorable outcome that
the members of the team had their
possessions packed ready to go to their
several homes after the game was over,

but they found it necessary to unpack
them and wait another week, for the
deciding game.
To answer the question how it was
done is not difficult. The bulk of the
credit lies with Yale’s Captain. He put
the balls over the plate, but not neces-
sarily in a straight line, and even when
Princeton did hit, Yale’s field proved
impregnable. Outside of Greenway, no
one man can be picked out as having
done work that discounted the rest, un-
less it be the four who made the
phenomenal stops of the day. Umpire
Gaffney called the game promptly at
3.30 o'clock. At that hour, the big
stands at the Polo Grounds were filled
with a typical college crowd, with the
exception of a few seats on. the ends.
Princeton supporters seemed the most
numerous, but when the little bunch
of Yale men in the cheering section
got together, it was plain to be seen
that Yale was not to be outdone in
vocal loyalty. A moderate breeze was
blowing across the field from second to
home. Captain Greenway won the toss
and sent Princeton to the bat. Only
four men were up in Princeton’s haif
and no score was registered. deSaulles,
Yale’s surest man to first, brought the
Yale crowd to their feet by scoring on
a passed ball, one to nothing looking
very well. In the first half of the sec-
ond, deSaulles made one of the prettiest
plays a person is likely to see on a
baseball field. A hot grounder was
knocked down toward first base just
out of reach of Wadsworth’s hands.
deSaulles, from his position near sec-
ond, sprinted after it, but just before it
reached him it bounded high. He arose
several feet, seemingly, after it and
pulled it down, but the impetus of his
run prevented him from making a
throw. With characteristic cleverness,
he made a back hand toss, the ball
rollng slowly into Wadsworth’s hands
just before the man reached the base.
The three other phenomenal plays like-
wise made the Yale crowd wild with
enthusiasm. In the first half of the
fourth, Hazen, at third base, made a
dive for a grounder and was just able ©
to stop it with one hand. He recovered
the ball and threw the man out at first.
In the seventh, at a critical point, a hot
liner was hit which Greenway caught
about two feet from the ground. And
in the ninth, Wallace made the most
beautiful play of the day by pulling
down with one hand a long fly to right,
which was apparently a home run.
There were two men on bases and if
he had not reached it, Princeton’s score.
would have come up to six. The fifth
inning proved to be Yale’s lucky one,
instead of the eighth, as is usual. With
the score three to three, Yale, by the
timely hits of Greenway, Wallace and
Camp, advanced it to six. In the next
inning, the two finals runs of the game
were made by deSaulles and Wear, and
Yale had won by eight to three.

An English Remark on Yale’s
War Enthusiasm.
[Cambridge (Eng.) Review.]
The outbreak of war has been fol-
lowed by innumerable demonstrations
of martial enthusiasm among _ the
younger members of the great Ameri-
can Universities. We notice with in-
terest that at Yale large numbers of
undergraduates are attending daily mili-
tary drills, and that a complete battery
of Horse Artillery has been equipped,
entirely by the New Haven students,
for active service with the Connecticut
troops. The United States Govern-
ment, displaying a knowledge oi aca-
demic youth which has never been
paralleled on this side of the Atlantic,
has re-christened the steamship ‘Paris,
now an auxiliary cruiser, the Yale. A
vigorous and immediate response to the
compliment took the form of a large
and daily increasing contribution
towards the new cruiser’s equipment
for war, raised by voluntary offerings of
past and present members of Yale
University. When will our Admiralty
begin to attend to the economy of
nomenclature?

A BIT OF HISTORY.
[From Woodward’s “ Insurance in Connecticut.’’]
The Etna escaped the fire of December 16th, 1835, in New York City—the first in the
series of great American conflagrations—which destroyed property to the value of $15,000-
000, and bankrupted twenty-three out of twenty-six local insurance companies.
It entered
the city the following year, having for agent Augustus G. Hazard, afterwards the organizer
and president of the Hazard Powder Company of Enfield.
It was not so fortunate in the fire
of 1845, which swept $6,000,000 of property from the business center of the metropolis, and -
cost the Aetna $115,000. When the news reached Hartford, Mr. Brace called together the
directors and told them that the calamity would probably exhaust the entire resources of
the company. Going to the fire-proof vault, he took out and laid on the table the stocks and
bonds representing its investments.
Little was said, each member waiting for some one
else to take the initiative. At length the silence was broken by the question: “ Mr. Brace,
what will you do?”’
“Do?” replied he.
“Go to New York and pay the losses if it takes every dollar there,”
pointing to the packages, “and my fortune besides.”
“Good, good,’’ responded the others. “We will stand by you with our fortunes also.”
So it had always been with the 4tna in every crisis which it had before
faced. The same spirit had carried this famous Company through where
others had gone to the wall.
This was the last close call for the tna. To-day with its cash capital of
$4,000,000, a net surplus of nearly $4,500,000, and a system built on the
priceless experience of seventy-nine years, it is hardly possible to conceive of
its having a close call.
