The Georgetown University baseball
team, which seems to be iuyincible, added
another leaf TO its wreath of iaurels yes
terday afternoon at Annapolis, by winning
from the strong team of naval cadets
by the over rwhelming score Of 80 to L.
1t was the greatest coat of frost the
Georgeto wn boys have administered to any
OF the collegiate teams this season, and
that to one of the snappiest 1t has COM
peted with The Cadets had the reputa-
tion of putting up very strong game and
they have won by large scores and been
defeated by small margins in games with
the big college teams aud the local Varsity
never dreamed they would have such an
easy thing of it.
In the presence of very large crowd OF
spectators, including many naval officers,
and lots of fair admirers, the coming Adj
mirals suffered their most disastrous defeat
but took their medicine like true tars.
The playing of the Admirals in the first
inning wassnappy and gave some indication
that the game would be close eandinteresting
but subsequent developments, especially
in the second inning when Georgetown
scored thirteen times, knocked all calcu-
lations and hopes endwise. From that time
forward it was only a question as to how
many scores the Varsity would make.
NEVER LOOKED PRETTIER. D
The afternoon turned out to be perfect
one for the game and the magnificent field
OF the academy backed by the blue waters
of the Severn, never looked prettier. All
nature smiled ard even the grim naval Of
ficers and the stern implements of war on
all sides beamed at the sight and the
sport in the prospect, but all these vanished
as Georgetown rolled up score after score
and buried the acmiTals deeper and deeper
under the turf.
Big Mike Nahoney was in the central
poiut for the visitors and he was at his very
likewise in the third and fourth. In the
fifth, Mccarthy poked out a two-bagger
and e. MahoDey was given his base and Nc
Carthy scored on the overthrow TO first to
catch Mahoney. McGTath's hit scored
Mahoney; Murphy hit safely; Reardon went
out at first; Harley's fly scored Murphy.

scored their only run on McCounack's gift
by being hit by pitcher, and Henry's pretty
single and Stanley's fly, which scored Nc
Cormack.
MORE IN THE SIXTH.
Georgetown made two more in the
sixth. After Sullivan's out from Hender-
son to Barnes, Carmody flied out, e. Ma
huoey came and cracked out the longest
drive of the day, on which he reached third,
scoring Mccarthy, who had been given a
life. aud then McGratb's hit scored Ma
honey. Murphy was out on a difficult
catch of a fly by Tozer.
A blank was drawn in the seventh and
three more were made In the eighth.
In the sixth Carmody exchanged places
places with G.. Mahoney, and pitched a
splendid game.
In the eighth Mahoney retired and Martin
Murphy went TO first, accepting all his
chances without error.
Thencamethe wiDdup and what a clincher
it vast Nine runs more were added and the
spirits of cadets and rooters and even the
trees dropped in sadness. 1t was bad
enough to reach the ninth with twenty-five
to the good but il was driving it too deep
when nine more runs Were scored and when
the mist had cleared away the score stood
80 to l and the crowd and players went
boat race with the Potomacs the dropping
spirits wou Id be revived and things
eyened up.
The whole Georgetown team played
gilt edged ball, batting like fiends, fielding
spiendldly and running bases with Judgment.

beyond doubt, MahonAy exchanged places
with first baseman, Carmody, who con-
tinued the good work. Both were splendid
ly received by steady old Sullivan, whose
catching and throwing and batting were
features.
The story OF the game is told by the fact
that the visitors made thirty hits off Hen.
derson and earned eighteen runs, while but
eight hits were made off the visiting pitchers.
Georgetown went first to bat. Hartley
hit safely and stole second and scored on E.
Mahoney. Sullivan's hit past second ad-
vanced Mahoney, who scored on Carmody' g
drive past third. Mccarthy hit to third and
forced Sullivan. g. Mahoney's single forced
Mccarthy at second and was himself run
down between first and second.
The Cadets went out in order in their
half, and
THEN CAME THE SLAUGHTER.
McGrath's fly was missed by Henderson,
and he scored on Reardon's two-bagger to
center, Murphy having flied out to center
Harley's hit was fumbled by Stanley, and
Z. Mahoney's and Sullivan's singles scored
Reardon. Carmody was presented with
his base, which forced Harley in Dan
McCarthy's hit scored Mahoney, and the
good work was continued when g. Ma
