TALE PLAYED LIFELESSLY.

They Won the Game at Hat and
 Pitched n Fine Game Considering
 His Support-Not a Very Kncour-
 aging Outlook for the Game With
 Princeton on Saturday.
 The game between Yale and the Staten Island Athletic club at the field yesterday was notable mostly for the errors made by the Yale team at critical points and the generally listless way in which they played. Davis, the freshman pitcher, started off to pitch beautiful game, but his support was disheartening. He gave Van Zandt to the shortstop, which Harvey fumbled and seemed to bat with his hand eff toward second base. Instead of an easy double play 8 man perched on second and another on first. Brill hit to the outfeld, but no one tried very hard to get it and hit had to be counted made off Davis. Van Zandt scored and Krauss and Brill got to third and second respectively. Carter had an uniucky passed ball and Krauss gave the visitors lead of two runs. Brush sacri- feed by high fly to Case, which brought in another run. Strebeigh was lost in the maze of the freshman's curves. Cumming got hit without any effort on the part of Harvey to shut it off. Mcdonald was fielded out at first by Norton. In the next two innings the visitors failed to add to the score and Yale got six runs off six hits for total of eight bases. In the seventh Yale lost the game. Cumming got base on balls. Singles by Mcdonald and O'Connor brought him in. Harvey fumbled Clare's grounder which let in Mcdonald. Norton muffed VanZandt's fly, and the bases were filled. This excited Davis and he forced two runs in by giving bases on balls. Brush sacri- feed by high fly to right field, and brought in Van Zandt. Davis pitched wild, bringing in Kraus. The next two men were put out and the awful strain was re- moved from the nerves of the spectators.
 Yale batted well and Davis pitched we'll so long as he had an apology for support from the felders. The team played like fagged-out tail-enders who had played in hard luck for a whole season. Whether this is a result of over-training or because Murphy was not playing to steady them, or because they were not over confident in their pitcher, at all events the wise specta- tor will not stake his car fare home on the result of the game Saturday. Still Yale always plays brilliant game when the honor of the college is at stake, and no loyal Yale man does not believe in the bot tom of his heart that Yale will be victori- ous Saturday.

It is in itself most costly affair, but, of course, its projectors find their recompense-andt they most certainly should. The best of these parades has always been the one given by the Adam Fore paugh shows. This year the shows yield still further to the demand for spectacular display and will produce as an integral, component part of the shows sublime, historic, Bible spectacle, The Fall of Nineveh.

In view of recent events this may be
fairly called the golden age Of pugiiism.
Six professional fighters have met in the
same ring-one pair on each of three sue
cessive nights. The victorious trio have
received as the reward for their superior
ability to punch the impressive total sum
OF $Sl, 500, while one of the defeated, lad
whose wage earning capacity as cooper
is probably about SO week, received the
balm Of 81 coo as plaster Tor his battered
physiognomy. Thus we see three cham
pions of the squared circle divide among
them as the result of their respective bat
ties, from which they came forth un-
scathed, and which were won in an aver
age time of slightly over an hour. almost
Sig, 600 more than the cabinet Of the presi-
dent of the United States receives in
year, and this huge reward is but small
fraction of what they can earn in twelve
month by exhibiting themselves to the
fsric-mad community st large.
So much for the bounteous harvest that
today awaits the reaping by the champions
of the ring. and be it added, by the crafty,
blatant aud self-advertising second and
third class theatrical spectators who fat
ten on them in the guise OF managers. !"
On the other hand, what of the defeated
stars of modern pugilism? Well, they
are relegated promptly to the ranks of the
"hack numbers" and the has beens" and
are generally regarded with scorn by their
formers hackers, and under the depressing
influence Of adversely they, as q RUE, drink
themselves to death as fast as do good

Is very doubtful if in the entire course of
their combined careers this quartette of

pride to the wonderful mechanism of the

bad usage or inheritance, to say nothing
of bad and unskilled operations, accidents,

the fate of the average pugiiist, be he great
or be he small, to be finally knocked out
by drink, and by far the larger number of
the worlds mighty prizefighters have fallen
victims to intemperance and dissipation
and have gone to their graves unwept, un-
honored and unsung.
To those who admire the manly art and
its great opponents there is. however,
more than a grain of consolation in the
fact that the history of pugilism shows
that in several worthy instances the fame
of the giants has been fittingly honored in
memorials more substantial than the mere
black and white of printed records. En-
gland. the birthplace and home of boxing
as we know it, has erected four such mon
uments to a quartette of her fistic heroes.
and the fact is worth noting in the face Of
the whirlwind of adulation now heard
when modern champions are within ear
shot, for it is extremely doubtful if all
the enthusiasm would result in subscrip-
ton to a monument in the event of the
death Of any of them.
The four men upon whom the English
world of sport has bestowed the honor Of
erecting monuments TO their memories
were all champions in their time. and
champions of the type that reflect both
glory anu Cfcult Oh tuclI pIticSSfoH. vi
the first, John Jackson. who was the
champion of 100 years ago. it is quite cafe
to say that no man ever figured in the
professional ring who better deserved the
title OF gentleman. The new champion,
Corbett, is at present credited with this
title, which is unfortunately rare one in
the prizefighting world, and if his future
career be similar to that of John Jackson
he will perhaps get monument, too.
Jackson was the son Of rich London
builder, aud. like Corbett, took to boxing
from love of il. and to the profession Of
pugllism as q source of income more
rapidly productive than the SLOW climb
ing of the ladder of commercial prosperity.
He fought but few fights. beating one or
two first-fate seconG-class heavyweights
for very small purses and then knocking
out the great Mendoza, when that celeb
rity was on the pinnacle of tistic fame, in
the short space of ten minutes. Then he
opened boxing school, and was the tutor
OF all the mobiles and aristocrats of the day
including Lord Byron. whose diary at one
period is filled with kindly illusions to
his tutor in the manly art.
He was veritabie swell and dandy in
the world of sporting London and the pet
of royalty. for whom he constantly pro
vided private contests in the ring. Roya
dukes headed subscriptions to present him
with testimonial silver salvers and cups
and he died, at AZ. q rich man, resp ected
