Come, Love, come, the bonny boat
On the blue seas lies ahoat,
With her red flag flying steady
And her white wings spread already;
Come, the waves are whispering low
In the music that We know,
And the wooing western breeze
Whispers DER the sunny seas,
Mocking lingering doubts delay;
Youth and gladness, come away,
Leave the cares Of earth behind,
Trust the waves and trust the wind
Come, Love, come, says hope and youth
In the glow of passionate truth;
What have we with fear 10 do,
We, LIES own triumphant twoi
Age and prudence whisper warning
In the glory of the morning,
Shall not noon be glad and gay,

Come and face the world In faith;

Eeep, If thou wilt; for tears are good.
Ay, tears are like the gentle rain
That hringeth flowers In the dark wood,

Such moving springs our nature needs
Deep through these stony hearts they go,
And turn tho mill wheels of good deeds.

 The freshman cricket club plays it's first game to-day at Hamilton Park against the New Haven cricket club. The eleven will play day as follows: Bissell, Blair, Broatch (captain), Coates, Horr, Jewett, Long, Moor head, Treadwell, Wales and Young; substi- tutes, Ackroyd, Jessup and Wells. Eight of these men have played on teams before. The eleven will not be permanently selected until after this game. A game is being arranged for Saturday against picked team of juniors under the captainship of Stokes '89.
 The wonderful work of Bates, the Har- yard freshman who pitched for the crimson in Mondays game with Princeton, has spread consternation among the Yalensians. He struck out sixteen men. It is evident that he will give the Yale batsmen no small amount of trouble.
 The number of candidates for the athletic team has been reduced to the following: Lentilhon '89 S., Davison go S., Bayard go, Lane '88, Griswold go, Sherrill '89, Harmar go, Bardwell go, Shearman 'S9, Robinson go, Skelding, 89 S., Berger 'SS S., Walker 'S9, Richards '88 S., Holton, T.

Four shower baths have been erected in the cottage at the field, which will be supplied with water from the city pipes. These baths are especially intended for the mem bers of the athletic team, but tennis and ball players are at liberty to use them when not otherwise required.

EASE HALL.
Yale to Meet Harvard Next Week-The
 Werk of tho Two Teams.

Yale to Meet Harvard Next Week-The Work of the Two Teams. The Yale team plays it's first champion ship game with Harvard week from Satur- day. Great interest is being manifested over Saturday and if she should be defeated Yalensians would be greatly pleased for that would give the Yale team some show of win- ming the pennant.
 The probability is that Harvard will not win, but for all that base ball is mighty un- certain. If Harvard wins she will take the lead in the standing.
 Yale has certainly some hard work to do between now and next Saturday week. It seems as if she ought to win the first game from Harvard. But Stagg is not doing so we'll this year as usual. There is a marked contrast between what Bates of the Har- yards and Stagg did against Princeton. Bates struck out sixteen men in one game, while Stagg struck out but twelve in two games. The Princetons made eight base hits off Bates, while they made nine off Stagg in each of the two games he pitched against them.
 As regards the score of the Harvard Princeton game, 9 to 3, but little can be drawn as to the relative batting strength of the two teams, as Mercur pitched in and won one game from Yale and was batted out of
 
 Harvard had to face King, who is much better pitcher than Mercur, and they made tour safe hits for a total of six off him, while Yale made three with total of five off him in three innings.
 One trouble with the Yale team is that as soon as Stagg commences to be hit they go to pieces. The long hits the felders cannot get. A fly batted in front of them they get, but on side or backward run they are ut terly at sea. Their picking up of ground balls is very bad, but they did much better in that respect in the second Princeton game.
 The Yale team seem to have found their batting clothes, but how long they will wear them remains to be seen. Moves will be able to play in the Harvard game and Cal houn will go back to right field. This will strengthen the team.
 Although Yale ought to win, yet it is going to be hard struggle. Harvard will be here with blood in her eyes.

 Halpin has been released from the Troys. Damn is doing elegant work behind the bat for Yale.
 "Dickie" Burns is doing nothing for the Scrantens.
 The Washington team is said to be back ing the Troy team. Crane is not pitching winning ball for New York, but he is batting well. Whats the matter with Gruber? He won the game from Boston on Monday and Boston had her $2O, 1000 battery in. The Sporting Times last Sunday had an elegant supplement of the Washington team. Amongst the number was sfJimmy" Donnelly of this city. It is to be hoped that Fnlmer will not um- pire the Harvard- Yale game. A man who cannot give prompt decision should not be allowed to umpire. latest scheme is to induce the Yale and Har- yard teams to take 8 trip to England this summer to give exhibitions of base ball. It must have galled the Bostons to have Gruber, whom the Pittsburg and Detroit papers had been calling the ''Kid" pitcher, win game from them. Gruber's stock has gone up.
 Gruber is nervy. After Nimiok of Pitts burg had made arrangements with the Detroit management he asked 9ruber what he want ' ed, and was told $2, 500. Negotiations stop ped there Gruber is not getting $2, 900 on the Detroits. The Central league will probably go under. The Jersey City and Newark teams are the equal of the American association teams. The other day the Jersey Citys defeated the Philadelphias, and Newark and Baltimore played tie game. Jimmy Kelly is the best umpire in this If fho in He is the only umpire besides Gaffney and Ferguson who goes behind the pitcher when there is 6 man on first. He gives good satis- 1 faction by doing It..

LITTLR THINGS THAT KILL.
The Musings Of a Great Doctor.

 "It is a curious thing" said a prominent physician in conversation with reporter. f'how many very little and very insignificant things often cause death. A tack or broken needle in the bare foot; the nib of pen or piece of glass in the hand produce lock jaw; grape seed or an orange pit may lodge in the bowel and produce fatal abscees; the sting of a wasp has been known to produce paralysis and ultimately death; a little draft of air may cause pneumonia; little disease germ, of which it would take million side by side to make an inch, may cause cholera or typhoid fever; pin prick in the face may cause erysipelas; the puncture of hairpin or toothpick in the ear may rupture the ear and cause chronic deafness; 8 bit of steel in the eye may result in total blindness, and so the examples might be multiplied. "And just as little things as cause death and disease may save life and insure health at certain times. A few drops of Scotch Oats Essence has saved many an over worked brain from insanity, has made many an otherwise fatal spasm of the heart harm less, has prevented many person from lock jaw and kept many cradles tenant free from convuleions.
 "A kernel of Scotch Oats is very little ] thing, but locked up in it are three wonder full medical principles: 1st, a brain and nerve remedy; 2d, phosphorus, brain and nerve food; and Sd, boskine, an agent that acts on bowels, liver, stomach and kidneys. AS oats or oatmeal It would take bushels or peeks to do what a few drops of Scotch Oats Essence, concentrated medical extract, does quickly and we'll.
 q must say that Scotch Oats Essence is the littlest big thing, CT the biggest little thing, in the way of a medical discovery made this century. The old, the middle aged, the expestant mother, the nursing mother, the boy, the infant at the breast, the invalid, the convalescent, the athlete, are alike affected benefcially by it.
 f'Easy labor, natural childbirth, 8 full supply of milk, children free from convul- sions and nervous diseases, and less liable to teething disorders, freedom from the opium
 habit, quick recovery from overwork for doc tor, minister and lawyer, rapid recovery while convalescent from acute diseases, free dom from sudden death by the heart, healthy appetite, good digestion and sound sleep are all certain to follow it's use
 "And best of all it is purely vegetable, perfectly harmless, from the lap of nature | herself, and certain, effcacious and pleas ant"
