pitching sensational ball. and the Della
ware boys were falling easy a prey to his
elusive shots and tremendous speed. In
the eighth inning Byrd weakened, and
walked two men and struck another. Two

The scene that followed this great piece
of base running has never been equaled
at the college, the student body tossing

1t was announced last night that there

Metropolitans Defeated by Stock
Exchange Men.

Forcing q bull market" when at the
bat. and carrying out 4 successful bear
campaign when in the field, the New York
Stock Exchange sheared the Metropolitan

the White Lot yesterday. It was dis

as a side issue. and the length of the
game was governed by the time available
before luncheon. AS it happened seven
innings We're played. and the final score
was n. y. S. T., I; Metropolitan Club, 4.
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth and scores of
other society folk watched the struggle.
and much sympathy was expressed, after
the first inning. for the rapidly developing
symptoms of sore arms, singing lands
and stiffenlng muscles. Arnica, witch
hazel and linament were in great demand
last night.
Except for the fourth and fifth innings
the home team played base ball almost
like real amateurs. but those Two sessions
closely re.embled the gentle pastime of
tag, the only trouble being that none of
the visitors would be it. FalcJner
earned the hero laurel wreath in the
gifi-fest because he made mighty motions
like catching the ball every time 1t was
lobbed in his direction, but each time
the sphere lodged his waiting hands and
rolled into the left field.
Porter also managed to assist the visit
ors by miscalcuiating HorsimannAs ability
as high jumper at first. Two men were
on bases and TWO were out in the fourth
when W. Babcock drove liner directly
into Porter's hands. Horstmann did the

but he jumped only eight feet In the air.
while Porters throw whizzed over his
head at the height of ten feet. Greenway
and Romans ambled home. In the fifth
Lowell drew a pass and sole second. and
he was in the act of pilfeIing third when
Falconer made his first miscue. A base
on balls and a single put Norris and
Greenway on bases after that and aga n
the Metropolitan Clubs third sacker gaze /
into the budding trees while Mitchells per-
feet throw sipged the grass in left field.
Norris and Greenway registered.
These two disastrous innings speedily
dimmed the home teams hopes of victory
