Joyful over their unexpected and well earned victory from Yale on Saturday, the freshmen began their celebration by carrying the victors from the field on their shoulders. On arriving at the gymnasium, rousing cheers were given for the eleven and for the individual players, while the Yale team was down stairs in the sparring room changing their apparel. At half past seven about one half of the class met in the square near Beck. The torches lately used in the 250th anniversary parade, were made to do duty a second time, and with a band of horn-blowers and fire-cracker throwers the victorious class marched through Harvard Street to the yard. Roman candles, colored fire, rockets and shouting, mingled with the noise of bombs, made up the equipments of enthusiastic freshmen. On the steps of University cheers were given for the eleven, individual players, the classes, and finally for Harvard. Then a rush was made for Jarvis field, the scene of the victory, and a good-sized bonfire was soon in progress where lately the Yale rushers were in vain attempting to keep the ball away from their goal-posts.

The excitement was over before it had grown very late, and by twelve o'clock the gallant defenders of the crimson were taking their much needed rest. The freshmen made a good celebration upon very short notice. They behaved themselves well and deserve credit for the enthusiastic but withal guarded manner in which they gave vent to their natural and proper feelings of pride at their success.
