Way Outpitches Deyo in Deciding
Came Of Series Between Colleges

NEW YORK. June 17.-Yale tri-
umphed over Princeton in the third
and deciding game of the season at
the Polo Grounds yesterday afternoon
by to 3. Bill Deyo pitched a nice
gam for the Tigers, but his support
fell down in the pinches. while pie"
Way. the Yale hurler, was strong in
the tight places and his support hung
together nicely.
The New Haven team was first to
score, garnering one tally in the first
banked in their half. Middlebrook
was given a life on Douglass muff of
kelleher's throw. Easton promptly
sacrificed and Middlebrook scampered
over the home plate on Milburn's dou-
BILE to left. Lesore and Hunter were
retired easily.
Princeton forged to the front tenn
porarily in the third round. With one
out Deyo was given life on Ways
wild throw to first base. Hanks singled
TO left and Gill forced him. Deyo and
Gill worked a double steal successfully,
Deyo scoring. Gill stole third mo-
ment later and scored on briggs sin
gle through the box. briggs died
stealing.
Yale evened the score in the fifth on
singles by Reilly and Vaughn. Ways
sacrifice and Middlebrook's out to the
infield Reilly getting the run. Prince
ton again took the lead in the sixth.
Tiger Gill doubled and took third on
briggs sacrifice. Greene walked. Scully
grounded to Leeore and Gill went out
at the plate. while Greene moved to
third. Douglas singled, scoring Greene,
but Scully was out at the plate trying
10 follow.
Yale squared matters in the seventh.
Reilly walked and got around on
Vaughn's single. Ways sacrifice and
Middlebrook's infield out. The game
was won by the Elis in the eighth.
With Milburn out, LeEore was safe on
ScuIlys error. He stole second and
rode home on Hunters single to center.

Land Office scored just twice as
many runs as the Bureau of Mines in
the Home Club League, the count being
10 to D. Neither team felded very well,
and the batting honors were about
even. Perhaps the best exhibition of
individuals was that of Conover, who
played shortstop. He had one err
ror, three assists and two put-outs
charged to him as his fielding record.
while he drove out Il three ba gger and
two singles out of four attempts.

There were no particular features, each
team doing about the same amount oil
batting, and neither giving very good
exhibition behind it's pitcher Schnurr.

about the best batter and fielder of the
game. He handled six assists and drove

Three shut-out games We're played in
the amateur leagues yesterday. In the
Terminal Railroad Y. NJ. G. A. circuit
the General Office nine won from the
Auditors by to G: in the Potomac
circuit the Drillery took the measure
of st. Teresa by the same score, and
in the Departmental the War team, APP
pearing for the first time in quite
awhile. was whitewashed by the Treas
ury club by . to 0.
The game in the Railroad 'Y'' League
went only five innings, but during that
time Laverine, who was on the mound
for General Office, allowed but two
hits and was hardly in danger of be
ing scored on at any time. Rasmussen
and Ebbert engaged in a pitchers duel
in the Potomac circuit, the former
working for st. Teresa and the latter
for Drillery. Rasmussen, despite his
defeat, was batted safely only three
times and struck out twelve. Ebbert
allowed the Drllery batters four safe
ties and famed nine. The exhibition
given by these two men was about the
best shown by any pitchers in the 20
tomac organization this season. Ryan.
who did the hurling for Treasury, did
not allow hit nor a run in the six in
nings against War. He did not eX-
perence much trouble in winning his
contest, holding War helpless and his
teammates getting runs almost when
ever they pleased.
The work of Mortimer. third baseman
of Treasury, featured the play in that
contest. He made four hits out of four
times at bat, one of the drives being
three ba gger. Aside from the splendid
pitching of Rasmussen and Ebbert
there was no special feature to the
game between st. Teresa and Drillery.
Fischers batting and Browns fielding
were about the best of the accomplish
ments in the Railroad Y. NJ c. A. cir
cult with the exception of Lavertne's
work on the mound.
The Marines had little trouble win
ming from Library in the Government
League, their play being superior in
very nearly every particular. Good
win, star pitcher of the Marines, was
on the mound and he held the Libra
rians to two hits and famed ten Aft
er his team had gotten him a lead
Goodwin was never in danger of losing
it. In contrast to the light hitting of
the Library the Marines drove the ball
ards and Quackenbush leading with
three each. All Richards wallops were
singles, but two of those of Quacken-
bush went for extra bases.
Minis did some splendid work at third
for the Marines, accepting eight chances.
He also batted well.
Loomis struck out seven in five in
nings and allowed only two hits while
pitching for Advent against Reforma-
tion in the East Washington Sunday

ASK him to come up here" said

'No, no, I need nothing"
She had hurried before him down
the little stairs leading into the gar
den from the balcony, and she had be-
gun to speak to the native before Tre-
mont appeared. In this recital he ad-
dressed his words to Julia alone.
Il am very poor man, Excellency,"
he said In mellifiuous tone, and very
sick"

duke sharply. Let him tell what he

"You are very frank" said fremont
brutally. 'Why do you come here at

''Hush," said Julia Redmond i'm
ploringly. DO not anger him, Mon
sieur, he may have news" She asked:

note In her voice that made fremont
glance at her.
II have seen the excellency and
her grandmother" said the native,
many times going into the garrison" :"
What news have you of Captain

Without replying, the man said in a
melancholy voice:
II was his ordonnance, saw him
fall in the battle of Dirbal. l saw
him shot in the side. l was shot. too.
See?"
He started to pull away his rags.
fremont clutched him.

pushed him back. IF you have any
thing to say, say IT.
Looking at Julia Redmond's color

Does the excellency wish any
news?"
"Yes," said fremont, shaking him.
And If you do not give it. it will be
the worse for you"

"You see the fellow is half lunatic

her voice and asked the man:

she found sympathetic; the woman's
eyes had drawn Julia to her. 1t was

young as herself and. as Julia said,
vastly better-looking. Turning to
fremont on the balcony, when he told
her she was beautiful, she said:
Madame de la Maine is my ideal of
loveliness."
The young man wrinkled his fair
brow
DO you think SO. Mademoiselle? :?
Why?"
"She has character as well as per-
feet lines. Her eyes look as though
they could weep and laugh. Her
mouth looks as though it could say
adorable things"
fremont laughed softly and said:
Go on. you amuse me-"
"And her hands look as though they

fremont said nothing. and she
glanced at him suddenly.
"She says such lovely things about
you. Monsieur"
Really! She is too indulgent."
