exception, however, to this precise

The battle of Trenton was fought
again recently in mimicry on the old
battlefield, and the glory Of the pa
riot soldiers of George Washington
was sounded in the crash OF musketry
and cannon, the blare Of brass bands,
he uproar of human voices and the
,adences Of fine oratOry.
The feature of the day was unques-
tionably the sham battle, which was a
facsimile, so to speak, Of the real bat
tie Of century and quarter ago.
Three mimic forces were in the field.
They were those of General Washing
ton and of General Sullivan and the
Hessians. The original battle-ground
was gone over and every care was
exercised to make the sham battle
as realistic and as historically ac-
curate as possible.

 Two Straight from Meriden-Larg'
 Crowd-Other Games.
 On Yale Field, yesterday afternoon Yale won the opening game of the series with Princeton by trouncing the Fig CTS, 10 to 6, in loosely played, yet ex- holiday, college affair. The audience numbered fully six thousand people and the pretty gowns of college girls from Smith, Vassar, Wellesley and other schools and colleges blended attractive ly with the light, summer attire of the Yale and Princeton graduates and un- dergraduates. Yale flags were every where conspicuous The orange and black pennants were not by any means absent and what the Princeton contin- gent lacked in numbers it more than made up in enthusiasm. The Yale uni versity band added to the occasion it's repertoire of selections, the Yale sBoola- boola," and other college pieces being played with force and enthusi- asm. The game, while technically not first class, was decidedly interesting from Yale point of view and the good plays of the players were heartily re- < Warded.
 Yale assumed the lead from the start but Princeton made fine rally in the ] last three innings and came near over- hauling the Blue. Garvan was batted heavily, the Tigers getting eleven with g total of thirteen hits. Stevens kept the hits pretty we'll scattered but they were sandwiched in with several of Meier's most lurid errors.
 Yale began scoring as soon as the game opened. Metcalf, Wear and Barn well filled the bases in the first inning on errors of Meier and Stevens Cote made himself solid at once by poking out a clean single into right, slamming Wear and Metcalf across the plate. Guernsey smashed Barnwell home with a long fly to right and Cote scored on Wells huff of Littlefield's hit In this inning Winslow and Miller were given bases on balls but loose batting by Yale failed to score any more runs.
 Princeton got her first run In the sec pnd inning, Davis reaching first on a sharp hit which Guernsey failed to ne- gotiate. He stole second and scored on Garvan's wild pitch
 Yale really put the game on the shelf an the third Guernsey poked one through Meier. Miller, Garvan and Metcalf singled, two runs resulting.
 In the fourth Princeton got another on Brownt hit to Miller which was thrown to Littlefeld, who forgot to keep his foot on first base. He stole second wild.
 In the fifth Littlefield singled. Met calf and Barnwell followed with safe hits, and Meier's error coming along opportunely netted four more runs. Yale was blanked in the fifth, not a man reaching second base.
 Princeton made a fine atting rally in the sixth. Meier, Wells, Davis and Stevens hit safely and Miller's wild throw gave the Tigers three runs. Princeton scored her last run in the eighth on Wells triple and Stevens single.
 The features of the game were the fielding of Metcalf and Winslow for iYale, that of Captain Steinwender for Princeton. and the batting of Stevens and Meier. The score:
