Base Ball Was Mediocre.

In considering the character of base
ball played this year. II is only fair TO
admit that Il has not reached the usual
high standard made by college men.
Princeton and Cornell had the most con-
sistent teams In the country. the differ
ence between these two being very slight
Both were inclined to be erratic. while
Pennsylvania. Yale and Harvard were
plainly mediocre.
There Were a number Of very good
pitchers developed this spring. The man
who made the best record was ably
Davis OF Williams. The effectiveness OF
this man was decreased somewhat at the
end of the season by reason Of the fact
that he was called upon to pitch all OF
the games. He first came into tho lime
light by holding Princeton TO one hit
After that he sustained his reputation
fairly well. Another man who was in
almost the same class was Cottrel OF
Syracuse. Against Columbia Cottrell
pitched no-hit game. In fact. ne made
such a reputation on the college diamond

NEW USE FOR LEMONS
DR.. Dunlap, of the bureau of chem
