BASE-BALL.

Newton, 8; Harvard, 5.

The game Saturday was not particularly well played on either side and was won by the Newtons by bunching their hits in opportune places. The features of the game were the pitching of Fish, the right field play of Lovering and the beautiful stop of a hot ball off Hackett's bat in the seventh inning by Baker. Bowen, the catcher of the Newtons, split his hand in the sixth inning and his place was taken by Daniels, whose play was an improvement over that of his predecessor. In the second inning, while trying to steal second, Nichols turned his ankle and was obliged to stop play. Crocker went behind the bat and Keep took Crocker's place in centre field. The Newtons occupied a good part of the time in "kicking" against the decisions of the umpire, in spite of the fact that his doubtful decisions were almost without exception against Harvard. It is hard to see why the nine should be allowed to play against a nine which makes such an ungentlemanly exhibition while practice with professionals against whom nothing of the kind can be said is still forbidden.
