Put Up a Fine Game.


New Haven, Conn, May 3.-Thc
Brown University nine, which blanked
Harvard. . to o. at Cambridge last Sat-
urday. went down before Yale yester-
day afternoon. The score was to 4.
Wdth the exception OF a bad case Of
rattles and yellow playing I'm two In
stances, the Providence boys played
the fastest game seen here this season.
Yale put In Garvan. her strongest
pitcher. while the Brown team was
made up as it was when II conquered
the crimson. At the outset, Brown, by
a hit-and-run game. scored MS only
tally. Tobey led off with a pretty two
bagger. just inside the left field foul
line. Bacon sent a grounder to Camp
and scratched u hit by getting to fret
ahead OF the ball Tobey went to third,
and, on a sacrifice by Clark TO first
base. came home. Barry sacrificed, and
Detmers went out.
The visitors put up a game In the
field that astonished Yale. For four
innings Washburn served them up well,
and had perfect support. But two Ellis
reached second In this period. Brown
also went out in apple-pie order.
In the fifth. Sharpe's bounder took
sudden turn over Tobey's head and he
was safe. Guernsey bunted to Wash
burn. who threw wild to Detmers.
Sharpe reached second and Guernsey
was safe on first Whittemore, the
Brown backstop. threw TO second to
catch Sharpe mapping. but the ball
rolled 10 center field. Sharpe went
down TO third and scored when Clark
threw the sphere over Cranes head.
Guernsey also came In on the misplay.
Practically the same combination of
errors enabled Yale TO tally three more
in the seventh In the ninth. Brown
took a fighting chance OF pulling out.
but hot double play from Camp to
Sharpe ended all.
The game was watched by 25oO peo-
pie. The score:

ried and thoroughly delightful of the

who has but recently made himself a
very great favorite in "the legitimate"

ors of the piece. winning the plaudits
OF genuine appreciation of artistic act

Mr.. Edeson was formerly for several
years leading man in the stock COM
pany of the Boston Museum, and for
the past six years has been one OF the
most popular leading men in the Froh-
man forces. holding position in the
esteem Of the management occupied by
no other. He is the actor always Sc
lected to fill in most trying part in
an emergency and who is called upon
when the requirements of role i'm a
new drama are of the most exacting
character.
Mr.. Edeson has been induced upon
the closing of Mrs. LeMoyne's season,
TO play brief engagement on the Keith
circuit, his earlier effort I'm that di-
rect.on, in the New York Keith house
having been most unqualified sue
cess; and during the coming week he
will be seen in a little comedy from his
own pen. entitled "Palmistry." which
is said TO be very dainty and we'll
written. and at the same time highly
amusing and entertaining sketch OF the
best class seen in vaudeville. The star
will be supported by Miss Ellen Burg.
formerly prominent member OF the
Boston Museum Stock company and la
ter playing leading roles in many OF the
best road companies" and the combi-
nation OF talents is said to be most
happy one for artistic results.

Secretary Long in his letter says:
The Department regrets that IL has
occasion to reprimand an officer OF
your rank and experience for inexcusa-
BILE indiscrxtion and offence against the

.It appears from your letters that in
your interview with Mr.. Atkins, whom
you knew 10 be newspaper corre-
spondent. you spoke OF a fellow officer,
your senior In rank. in away calculat-
ed TO bring him into contempt. You
knew this to be "A violation OF the naval

the good order and discipline OF the
service. because II In the example or
one officer in high rank rejecting upon
the honor and character of another--an

knew the risk you ran. and within q
year had been reprimanded for similar
misconduct in putting yourself and the
welfare OF the service TO the same risk,

fidence OF the Department In your dis
cfetiOn. -
''It is true that your case differs from
some recent cases of offence on the
part OF other officers In that objection
able remarks made by them were made
on occasions and under circumstances
which they knew assured their public

reservedIy accepts your statement that
your remarks were i'm no sense and In
