this week Ives won three and Schaefer two,
While GARNER lost four There was just a
possibility that the Americans would tie to-
night, but there were very few who thought
that Schaefer would be able to beat the
young Napoleon and secure tie with three
wins to the credit of each. Ives, owing to

tenth inning, thus leaving Jake Ito points
magnificent run. He soon got perfect control
or the worries, and when he had gathered
one hundred the cheers which greeted him
were deafening. AT $50 the applause was
renewed. With his notwithstanding
fifth shot he tied the score and did not quit
until he had gathered in 176 points, missing
lucky thirteenth for Schaefer, and he re-
ceived an ovation. The score then stood:
Ives, 267; Schaefer, 278. Neither man scored
in the following inning. Ives secured the
slight lead which Schaefer held and ran up
a fine bunch of eighty-three. Schaefer then
made another wonderful run, adding 159 to
his string.
In the last inning Schaefer required just
forty-Seven points to finish the game, and
he got them in an unfinished rum beating
Ives by sixty-six. This makes tie between
Ives and Schaefer, which will be played off
in Chicago next month. The second series

BASEBALL.


The first baseball game of the season was
played at Riverside Park Monday with the
Vermont Academy and Mt lIcrmon school
teams as contestants For several years both
of these schools have been hot rivals in all
kinds of athletic sports; in football Mt Her.
mon has always won the honors. while in
baseball she has never been able to win II
game. SO on account of the sharp rivalry
which exists between the two schools, both
teams brought with them large delegation
of ardent supporters which with the many
local admirers of both teams, made the al
tendance large. V A won, as usual, by the
excellent pitching of Fox. who although not
having nearly half the speed of Johnston, he
had excellent control and Il deceptive pace at
critical stages, which scattered Mt lIcrmon'>
five hits well, except in the third innin.
when three hits were punched which earned
the only two runs of the l3 made in the
whole game. which doesn't speak much of
the fielding and hitting Of either teams.
Whitmore and Robertson both caught fine
games, with the honorS slightly in the latter'S
favor, on account of his quick, accurate
throwing. Douglass played the best fielding
game but a pretty running catch by Hunt
was one of the few features and it made up
for his other bad muiis. Outside the pitch
ng there was no startling features except
.Johnston's two-base drive into center. Both
teams INDUCED in some "dumb" plays in
both fielding and base running.
