'riran Review, on the Fast Set at Harvard
which the most sesndalous ASSERT ms are
made ABOUT the ! f. and morals of Harvard

Harvard is no worse than any Of her sis,
ar colleges On the contrary any unbia.ed
iost Tyer will admit that in no other college
IN America are the students more gent IN IN
" than hs re- Novher do they pre.erve
better order among thcmse Ives than mere
o~here are hak ny and rowdy-hke amu,e-

he fast set" smaller in proportion. People
'ho have lived In other college towns will
uimtt that nowhere are the students on b L
Ter terms with the ,habit,nt, than here
II" writer Of the article In the North
american, who has not the courage to sign
Ms name, says that the fast set is the
no I noticeable here. On the contrary this

" he reason for objact,ng to the publica-

Rase IsalI Rures.

New YoRK, November 24.-The principal
changes in the playing rules as adopted at
the base ball convention were rs follows:
Relative to substitutes, the rule requires
that one player, whose name shall be printed
on the score card as an extra player, NAV
substituted at the end of any complete in
ming by either club, but the player retired
shall not thereafter participate il the game
'Hhe only change in the definition of a dead
ball Is that the umpire must be standing on
foul ground if the ball strikes any part Of
his person or clothing 10 make such g ball
dead.
a foul tip is defined as follows: ga foul
tip not rising above the batsman's head and
caught by the catcher playing within ten
feet of the base shall be termed a foul tip. -
In defining the powers of ths umpire to i'm
pose a fine of not less than IS or more than
$50 for abusive, threatening or improper
language to the umpire; an amendment was
made as follows: "a repetition of the of
tense shall subject such player to a removal
from the game and the immediate substi-
tuition of another player there IN uniform.
By the new rules also every fair ball which
hits the umpire Is credited as a safe hit
when the umpire Is on fair ground.
