Another Celebration on tbe Yale Campus
 on R eceipt of the News of the Yale
 Harvard Game What the 'SS Men
 ThinF OfIt.
 The Yale students who were fortunate enough to remain in New Haven to take part in the jubilee of Thursday went to bed tired at various hours yesterday morning, and dreamed of @ place where there should be nothing but fireworks and blue flags, load of anxiety had rolled from the mind of every Yale man when the race was over and when at daylight the last weary student crawled
 from the smouldering heap of ruins in front
 of South college and the last howler had lost
 his voice, leaving the wonted quiet of the
 place to reign once more, it seemed as if there
 was nothing to interfere with the happiness
 of all. The pIodding freshmen rose early
 and wended their steps toward Alumni hall,
 lookine so meek that it does not seem possi-
 ble that in a few years, very few years,
 they will be boldly making bonfres, calling
 the tutors names across the campus and wink
 ing at the young ladies on Chapel street AS
 the sun began it's daily trip down the vest
 ern slope the students came out and awaited
 the news of the base ball game with liar
 
 fence and watched for telegrams.
 About 5 o'clock word came that the
 game stood 2 to 1 in Yale's favor in the third
 innings. This caused cry of delight and
 the students began to count their change in
 event of another victory and an other cele
 bration. Later it was stated that the game
 was to in YaIe's favor in the sixth inning
 and later still that the score was the same In
 the eighth innings But no word was received officially at Beers drug store, Where such de- spatches are always sent, after the third in nipgs. Shortly after six o'clock a despatch came saying that Yale had won the game, and consequently the college championship for 1884 Although the conflicting reports in regard to the game left many doubts Tn the minds of the students as to which was correct, or whether Yale had really won the game, crowd col | lected and the college bell was rung. The work of collecting material for bonfire was actively prosecuted. Merchants were visited and all their spare boxes were readily dis ! posed of Another raid was made on the places where fireworks are sold and soon the ! cannon firecrackers were booming and the ! red light buring as noisily and as brightly as ! on the night before when the crowd went \ wild with joy. The scene on the campus was a repetition of Thursday nights demonstra- tions, somewhat subdued, however. By 8 | o'clock a large crowd had gathered Y in the neighborhood of the corner \ of Chapel and College streets. Tin horns ! were blown, mostly by small boys, however. | One enterprising youth went through the | crowd selling small tin horns at ten cents | apiece. They met with ready disposal. I Two large bonfires were started. Barrels, I boxes, blinds and everything available were heaped upon the flames. One man brought a good-sized bureau from 8 room in South | Middle and sacrificed that on the altar of en- thusiasm. From the balcony of the Univer- sity Club house 8 continued stream of red lights and Roman candles were fired, and oc- | cupants of rooms in South did their share in ! adding to the display of f1reworkF. Sky | rockets were sent up, and in one or two 1n- 1 stances came unpleasantly near persons on I the corner. Very little cheering was done | as nearly every body had exhausted his cspac- \ ty the night before. It was definitely ascer- { tained that Yale had won the championship and the students were delir.ous with joy. A party of candidates for the freshman \ class were watching proceedings from quiet Y corner of the campus last night. They con
 versed thusly:
 q say, Jack, if they have this sort of thing here much, fellow can't get much slee ." II tell you it is great thing to belong to \ a college where they have such celebrations Why they say that President Porter fires of skyrockets every time Yale wins game or ' race'
 "One great thing about our college is the | enthusiasm that our victories always creates. ! You always tell Yale man by the way I he yells There is nothing dudish or Eng \ lish about that, but it's real out and out, \ old fashioned shout"
 | Yes, and Yale always supports her nine | by cheering. Why, Yale's cheers won this championship. You know they have tutor ' of cheering. He trains every freshman class ! till they have got it down fiue."
 Fellows, you know Jim Ballard, who was | going to Harvard? He has changed his mind | since the race and says he's coming down here in the fall to take the examinations" II don't see why they want to blow about ! the faculty being so strict here. They
 wouldn't allow this at prep school" 'Hurrah for Yale"
