| with the faculty, and who visited tn
| campus in the matter of harmony
have been SO astounded by the evi
| dence of double dealing on the par
of those currying favor with Presiden
| Jordan that they have. left the place
disguised. The recent ruling of tbs
| academic council refusing to grant
Harold Fitch a degree, @aIthough h
had done the required work, because
he publicly criticized the Indiana
push,' has raised a storm of protest
even from faculty members. AS de-
grees are granted on a two-thirds vote
of the council. minority vote won
out, and the man was refused a di-
ploma which he had earned. 1t is I'M
derstood he will wait until the council
meets next fall. and if the degree is
not granted at that time suit will be
brought against the university.
The deplorable state of affairs has
aroused the greatest interest in the
educational world, and the total in
ability of DR.. Jordan and the Indiana
men to control the situation has been
the cause of wide comment and critf-
cisnR That there are men on the fac
ulty who can control the situation is
NOT uOupAS0s out LH6 INDIANA push
will not for a moment permit these
men to exercise any authority or in
huence except along the lines laid
down by them.
The whole unfortunate affair has
shown the complete change in the at
titude of the students toward DR.. Jor-
dan. and old Stanford men can not
understand this. The greatest sympa-
thy is expressed for DR.. Jordan, who,
after giving the better part of his life
to the upbuilding of the university, and
who was once the most beloved man
at Stanford, is now possibly the most
man with the students
Among the alumni the sentiment is
gaining ground that until DR.. Jordan
and the Indiana push" retire, the uni
versity will not go forward. This
policy is advocated by the radicals,
while the more conservative feel that
if DR.. Jordan could rid himself of the
"nonentities'' and ''small'' men on the
faculty who control affairs, harmony
would exist between the various fac
tions. The students are not unmindful
of the sacrifices made by Dr. Jordan
in the past, and feel that the old
friendship could be renewed were it
not for the Kitchen cabinet which
hangs to the university like q 1eech
and prevents both a free discussion of
the uniyersity's needs and any action
tending to broadening influence.

WADDELL SAVES A LIFE
The Rube Was Fishing When H'
 Made a Rescue From Lake.

While the St Louis Browns were getting the worst drubbing of the season at Sportsman's Park Tuesday afternoon, Rube Waddell was hitting fowls and saving the life of sports man at Pittsburg lake, near East St Louis. After killing several ducks, Rube saw a distress signal in a boat several hundred rods away. He row. ed to the place and found J. c. Ken nedy struggling to get back in the boat from which he had fallen. The spot was in the deepest water of the lake. Kennedy was clinging to the side of the boat. which dipped water every time he tried to climb in. I'll show 'em I'm a pinch hitter vowed Waddell, and at the risk of capsizing both boats, helped Kennedy back into his craft.

TOOK BOTH GAMES.

New Britain, Sept Billy Hanna is a prophet. He predicted that his Havanas would take the double header from the Orators yesterday, and sure enough they did. Billy hasn't been seen consulting any clairvoyants, either. It is quite like ly he called the Perfectos together and exchanged few cabalistic signs with them before making his pro phecy. The Cubans worship Billy, and If they could only play polo like they can base ball they would hake their winter quarters here.
 The Hannaites won the first game, 4 to 2, and the second, 3 to 2. The games bore a striking resemblance in that the nothing doing sign was out until the finishes, which were thrilling enough to suit the most fastidious fan. The scores:

RoRTY FINED THEM ALL.

Holyoke, Sept 5.-Though some Senatorial supporters may attribute yesterday afternoons defeat of Hart ford to a couple of decisions by Um- pire Rorty, the real cause of the downfall of the Nutmeg Capitalists was their inability to solve Joe Sindler's slants with men on the bases. No less than half a dozen runners were left panting on the paths, where a hit would have un- doubtedly turned the. tables. but only once did the much wanted bin gle article arrive and then a man was thrown out at the home plate The single score Of the game came in the sixth, when Dolan doubled with one gone. made third on a scratch hit by Boucher. and scored on Perkins's sacrifice fly. Only once before or after did a localite get as far as third base.
 Up to the arrival of that run, the Senators had strolled through each section without undue noise and ths game was tame. But as soon as thai tally was ehalked up the henchmer of T. Dovd sbuckled on their armol and sallied forth to make war CT Umpire Rorty when they realized Ethat they couldn't do anything witi Sindlev. Manager Tom began -th' nagkin8 in the sixth and 1t was con

 Dear Sir: We beg of you ton enough space to print the folloWinga
 We, the Ponies, played the Park. Avenue base ball team at the golf! lots last Friday, August 2S, and desl feated them 8 to 5. At the end ot| this game it was arranged to play tho Ponies a return game, Friday, Sep-@ tember 4, for the championship of' the city. At 12 o'clock Friday, Sep- tember 4, a messenger was sent toH say that they, the Park Avenue basea ball team, would not play the Poniea return game on their diamonds The Ponies finally consented to 5ours ney to the golf lots and play. Thl4 was done, and we, the Ponies. r1s ceived a very raw deal. First, when they obtained lead they tried t0 say five innings had been piayeds| while only four had been played. The umpire upheld the Park Avenuo| team and we, the Ponies, would not bat Finally the umpire admitted 1t was only the fourth. This was fol~ lowed by the umpire being removeds Second, we, the Ponies, were cheate6 out of a run in the eighth. Tn thlg. inning, with two gone, we rallied and scored four runs, making the score q tie. But the umpire said the score was 6 to 5. We. the Ponies, s to 6, and they, the Park Avenues, 6 to Y. The umpire said 6 to 4 in favor of the Avenues and we protested. but were not needed. Finally in this in- ming they were maddened by us when we removed the umpire and he wa8 replaced by MT Clary, good, square' man. In the ninth two men walked and the third man was three ball4 when wild throw by Platt gave nss the Ponies, the game. Score by in~ nings:

Cubs Fall Back In Race.

New York, Sept 5.-Although 5. the four leading teams in the race for the National league pennant were pitted against each other yesterday, the re- suit. of the games did not change the standing of the clubs. While New York, the leader, was trouncing Phil adelphia, Pittsburg, which holds sec ond place, was beating Chicago and making the gap between that club and itself wider. Philadelphia, which is in fourth position, has been rapidly overhauling the leaders, but its de feat yesterday was a serious setback. New York is considered to have a slight advantage because of the fact that Pittsburg and Chicago, its near est rivals, are playing a series togeth- CT, and every victory on the part of Chicago will pull Pittsburg back.

BASEBALL NOTES.

New Britain here tomorrow. ss The Cubans are playing great baseball and the double header should be corker.
 Hartford fell back again yester- day and missed a good chance to pull up close to Springfield Only a frightfpl slump can hold the Ponies from the championship now. E The fans in Cincinnati are accus- ing that team of laying down to New York and Pittsburg in order to beat Chicago out. If Springfield goes any higher, the Hartford fans will begin to squeal too.

T wouldn't take 5000 to quit now" said Red. ' "Notiing short of murder or sudden death will make me throw up the sponge after having gone so fai through season such as this one has been" Red" said he hadn't made any definite plans for next year but that he would sidestep the Conn" circuit if he saw chance to get anything else.
 Some of the Hartford players while still claiming to be in the ring and not likely to drop from one ol two punches, were bit dishearten ed after yesterdays game. Dowt had banked on beating Holyoke and had prophesied that a gain would I.be made on Springfield, as hs thought New Haven ought to wres at least one game from the Ponies. | The results of the day..

Little sympathy was expressed for him Thursday when his action became known, for the cranks haven't a great deal of use for a man who will leave his team in the lurch in that manner and particularly at a time when that team Is in straits through 2 long series b of defeats. They think 1t would have been a more manly thing for him to have played the string out.

BY A NARROW MARGIN.

New Haven, Sept. 5.--A wild throw by pitcher Paige, with two men on bases in the ninth inning of the second game at the Savin Rock ball grounds yesterday afternoon, saved Springfield from losing both games of a double header, the home team taking the first contest 6 to 2, because of timely hitting and costly errors by. the visitors, the Ponies taking the second game to 2.
 More excitement was displayed during the ninth inning of the sec ond game than was shown during the IT innings. previously played, The score was 1 to 1 at the beginning of the final session, when Springfield made two more runs. The locals went to bat with the score 3 to 1 against them, and scored a run, but were un- able to tie the score again.
 Had it not been for Paige's wild throw Springfield would not have scored in the ninth, and the one run made by the locals in that session would have been sufficient to give New Haven both contests, causing Ponies much humiliation. Aside from the ninth inning Pitcher Paige's work was suburb, and was plenty good enough to have landed vic- tory. The scores:
