 The most remarkable finish ever seen at a ball game on the Yale field was that in the Yale Princeton contest there Saturday afternoon, which was won by Yale by the score of to 8. The score was to against Yale when she went to bat in her half of the final inning, and after one men was out there was apparently not the slightest chance for victory. The cheering and yelling of the Yale contingent completely rattled Cosgrave, the Princeton short stop, to such an extent that he threw three times far over the head of First Base man Meier the ball going in the crowd lining up against the grandstand Grounders from the bats of Cook O'Rourke and Winslow were fielded beautifully by him and he had plenty of time in each case to retire the run ner at first, and if he had the side would have been retired and Princeton would have come out the victor in game that was, from a Yale standpoint, one of the worst ever put up by Yale team on its home grounds. Cosgrave was "up in the air" and up there to stay, and he couldn't put the ball with in ten feet of Meier. The second time he threw the ball to the grandstand, and as he saw the Yale men tearing over the home plate he cried like a child, but on the next play, when he did the very same thing, the play that lost the game for his side he collapsed and had to be almost carried from the field. Everybody felt sorry for him. even the Yale men.
 Yale did not deserve the victory. Her playing during the first seven or eight innings called forth groans from the followers of the blue, and time and again there were plays made that would have put a high school team to shame. Men were caught between the bases just as though they were learn ing the game they juggled grounders and dropped fly balls in a. way that was shocking to Yale men and followers, who supposed the team to be one of the best that has represented Yale for number of years past. Princeton, on the other hand, with the exception of the ninth inning, play ed beautiful ball, were wide awake and LOOK duNdlIdS0 Ol GNClS iilcH' AAANsN'N " 1 the Yale men. Their base running was daring and good, their fielding and throwing were almost perfect and their batting and judgment while at bat were far ahead of that of the Yale men. | Their play called for applause at ire | quent intervals from the whole crowd, and to lose a game like that of Satur- day must have been hard blow The score of the game in Princeton next Saturday, when Princeton will have her big commencement crowd will be an | interesting one.
