COLLEGE BASE BALL.
PrincetOn's Team Plays n Remark
ably Good Game With Boston.

aDly UOOO tame with Boston.
The Boston professional team played the
Tigers at PRINCETON yesterday and from all
accounts the game should have been tie
with the score at 2-2. AS 1t stands official
ly, the score is to 2 in Boston's favor
through a most questionable decision made
by Mr.. CAMEL Of the Boston team, who
was acting as umpire. The trouble oc-
CURED in the first inning. Two Bostonians
had been retired and Tenney was on third,
when Kafer threw Duffy out at second
Tenney tried to score, but was yards away
from the plate when Duffy was touched
out. Camel merely said that Duffy was
out, but said nothing about Tenney scoring.
Every score book on the grounds and even
the official scorer of the Boston team did
not credit the run. When the last half of
the ninth inning came, with the score sup
posedly p, Camel said the game was
over, and 1t took him some time TO explain
that Tenney had scored in the first. OF
course there were protests, but they avaiied
nothing against the decision of the umpire.
The Tigers outplayed the Beaneaters at
almost every point and the hackers of the
team are more than pleased with the show
irg made. Lady" Jayne, who is not even
one of the regular pitchers. occupied the
box the whole game and allowed the Bos-
tens but five hits, none Of which was better
than a single.
The Tigers also made but one error in
the field and batted well, Altman securing
two singles and q double. Boston changed
pitchers three times. employing Dolan, Stiv-
etts and Lewis. The fielding Of the Tigers
was 80 sharp and fast that two double
plays were registered in their favor against
team that Is remarkably fast on the
bases.
