RULES FOR GOVERNING EXHIBITIONS.
The Yaie-Princeton Game.

On Saturday the Yale team took vengeance on the Princetons and thrashed them to the tune of 10 to 4. There was probably no one whom the result pleased more than Damn. When the Yales were making six runs, and when he had come home after sending two men before him on one of his hits, he smiled and said: "Rub it in, boys" The Yale team won by their finding Mercur's curves. If King had been in the box during the entire game it probably would have been close and exciting. Nc Bride carried of the batting honors, hitting for total of seven bases, but his hits did not avail so much as Dann's, who on two hits sent four men home. Dann's catching was superb. There is no catcher in the country who is doing any better work. One of the many mysteries which surround the Tale team this year is why such good hitter as Mcbride is placed at the foot of the batting order. Heyworth played right field and was about as useless as they make them. He did nothing, although there was one fly which good fielder would have got under. At the bat he trifed viciousiy with the at moephere. Neither Osborn nor Walker got hit, although the other players were bang ing the ball all over the field. McConkey did splendid work and it only verifes what has already been said, that he could play well if he tried. One of the drawbacks to the Yale team this season is the management. The press accommodations Saturday were wretch ed. Things seem to be carried on parsimo- niously. This is due to penny-wise policy and inflated ideas.

ELOQUENT ADDRESS
At United Church by a Mfssiona
 From France.

At United Church by a Missionary
 From France
 At the evening service of the United
 church Rev. Mr. Hunter, missionary from France, gave an eloquent address on the country itself, our ancient ally and sister re- public. The religious revolution is, he said, as important as the changes in the civil gov ernment. Instead of intolerance and oppo- sition to Protestant teaching and preaching of the gospel the people of France welcome the McAll mission workers. They are anx- ious for Bible instruction and public halls and churches are opened to the new teachers. The Protestant population number now from 600, ,o00 to 100000. The nation is wonder fully industrious, contemplating and prosper ous. Besides the German war debt of twenty eight hundred millions, he said, they have paid an old national debt of one thousand millions of dollars. Freed from the burden of old monarchical institutions the nation is growing strong and powerful, not so much by the increase of the army and navy, great as that is, as by its new reformed institutions of learning supported by the government, giving the people universal education and uplifting all classes of society. The singing by choir and congregation was of the very best as usual. Dr. Munger introduced the speaker.
