SCENE: U. 24. Professor By-Path's Seniors are crowding the benches. Freshman Tutor Sleet is in the chair. Professor By-Path, it seems, is cutting.

Sleet loquitur. - I will request Mr. Snodkins (of '83, late '82) to stay after the recitation. I beg your pardon; I should have seen you were Seniors.

He flees to his real recitation-room in U. 23, and finds his section gone; time, 10.06. Grind on Sleet and the swell Seniors.

HARVARD FRESHMEN VS. ST. MARK'S.THE game began at 2.15 P. M., with Harvard at the bat. After seven innings were played, the game was called at 4.30 P. M., as by a previous agreement between the two captains, to enable the visitors to catch the last train from Southborough for Boston. As St. Mark's was ahead at this point, the Freshmen were naturally dissatisfied. St. Mark's courteously consented to go on with the game, but decided among themselves to stop at the end of the next half, whatever the result, being determined to cling to the original agreement. The Freshmen then went in, and made five runs. St. Mark's then withdrew.

The following is the score by innings:-

1 2 3 4 5 6 7

St. Mark's 3 0 1 6 1 0 1-12

Freshmen 2 0 1 4 2 1 1-11
