Nobly They Played and Well We Are In It! Did You See It? A Record of the Day—The Crowd—The Train—Baldwin—The Policemen's Pistols—The Game — The toughs-Baker's Woe-K. S. U's. Joy- Home- The Usher Guards-The Procession-Crew's Umbrella- The Bonfire-All About it, a Glorious Time. Never in the history of the University has there assembled a more enthusiastic crowd of students than gathered at the Santa Fe depot Saturday morning to go to Baldwin to cheer the University nine on to victory. The limit of tickets was soon sold. Still more came. When the train pulled out promptly at eleven o'clock to the prolonged cry of "Rock chalk, Jay Hawk, K. U.," !! every seat was full and the platforms and aisles were crowded. Manager Bowersock reporting 224 tickets sold. It was a happy crowd,brim-full of enthusiasm. When the train came in view of the University, floating the stars and stripes from her dome, the enthusiasm of the crowd broke forth in repeated cheers. The ride across the country was delightful but soon ended. A procession was formed at the Baldwin depot and marched up town, with the mascot in full dress uniform in advance, his august head protected from the rays of the sun by Dan Crew's big Japanese umbrella. A rush was made for the hotels and restaurants and for half an hour Baldwin eating houses experienced such a rush of business as they had never before known in the memory of the oldest inhabitant. Guta percha pies, and beefsteak that surely had fed on the same pastures as Pharoah's famous poor kine, which indeed from its extreme indivisibility might have been one of the famous seven, vanished with astonishing rapidity. An hour or so was then spent in wandering over the campus and through the building of Baker University. At half past two the crowd began to gather and before three o'clock it seemed as though all the south half of Douglas county was there to witness the contest. Policemen, great and small, fat and lean, black and white, dressed in a little brief authority and a tin star, armed with shilla-lahs and murderous looking revolvers, strutted about giving vent on the slightest provocation to expletives more forcible than polite. Prof. Camfield was chosen as umpire. Promptly at three o'clock the game was called. THE GAME. How those runs were made. K. S. U. was first to bat and "there was blood in her eye" and all the boys knew it. It might have been the reflection from the large Japanese umbrella, but it was there just the same. At 3 o'clock Prof. Canfield threw out the ball and called play. Sherman stepped up to the plate—we all knew how it would be, the ball went away from his bat on the safest kind of a hit. He stole second and came home on Kinzie's hot grounds to left field a safe hit for two bases. While Hogg, Simmons and Harvey were busily engaged in striking out, he enticed an error from Messinger on second and came in on it. Baker came in, shouldered their telegraph poles, knocked a pop up to Hogg, struck out, a long fly to Harvey, and out they went again. Crawford then gave Dudgeon a little fly, Smith and Fess picked up their bats and laid them down again, Baker came in and went out again only knocking a little one to Sherman who put it over to 1st in short order. K. S. U. at the bat. Now or never. Therman at the plate. A base hit, two stolen bases and a two bagger by Kinzie brings him in. While Hogg is getting four balls, Kinzie steals third. Simmons sees a chance to get hit and does so. Crawford to bat. Will he hit it? Yes, slightly so. See it go a safer. Kinzie and Hogg come in. Simmons on third, Crawford on second. Simmons gets Topping to throw the ball to third, gets hit in the back for his pains. The ball goes out in the crowd looking for the big parasol to hide in, Simmons thinks a Baker man has hit him and runs for home plate as if scared. Crawford s es a good opportunity and scores while Baker wonders at him. Smithy knocks a foul to Topping and "our boys" are out in the field. Baker fills the bases. Fessler helps Crawford put one out. Sherman catches a fly. Hogg makes one of those noble catches and the xylophone begins to play again. Fessler and Morse get on bases by errors in fielding from Baker. Sherman does the same. Kinzie knocks a fly to Rice who holds it. Hogg knocks a high one to left field. Leake and Brown both try for it, collide like two mad bulls, and while they are picking themselves up, three runs come in, Simmons knocks out a rifle shot three bagger into the same field and and the score is increased by two more. Crawford fans and so does Smith. The score is now 12 to 0. The game is won. Sherman fans them out or they bunt easy ours to the infield. Everybody finds that it is good to be there. In the seventh Baldwin crowd shows its hand and try to rattle Sherman. K.S. U. goes over to celebrate with them, and the police draw out the cannons and try to scare the boys. In the fuss and general muss Baker gets its 4 runs. Our boys in order to clinch things bring in two more runs. Baker is blocked and up town we go (15 to 4.) The game is won and we feel that the pennant's ours. did not like to be defeated did not act as did the howling unkempt mob.

The Usher Guards and nearly two hundred students met the train at the depot on its return. After several salutes from the Usher Guards, a procession was formed, four deep, which marched down Massachusetts street to the cry of "15 to 4!" "15 to four!." In the evening a big bonfire was made at the corner of Massachusetts and Henry. Enthusiastic speeches were made by Chancellor Snow and Profs, Dyche, Blake and Mayer. Kinzie was captured after a struggle and hoisted upon the hogshead and made a short speech after which the crowd dispersed. SOME "POP UPS." Of all the ungentlemanly tricks which were enacted by the rough and woolly populace of that charming and enchanting little village, the worst was the attempt to bully Schott into striking some one of the hoodlums who were surrounding him and calling him foul names. What would have happened to Schott could best have been told in an obituary notice if he had struck at them. At least twenty of them around him and only one of him. When Noble came up and Dave Miller elbowed his way through the crowd, the mob turned their threats and menaces to Schott into a sickly Baker yell, thus endeavoring to turn the disgraceful affair upon the Baker students. Baldwin! Thou art past redemption. Your courtesy to visitors has long been dead and shows no signs of resurrection. The B. U. Burr ball club are as gentlemanly a set of players as we've seen for quite a while. The long, lean, lank, slabsided, sorry apology of a diseased Jack ass who so far for forgot himself in his envy and rage over the defeat, that he hit Sherman in the back, when the boys were raising him up on their shoulders, we are glad to state that it is not, nor ever has been and probably never will be a Baker student. He's just pure Baldwin, that's all. Baldwin you are over run with police. All your toughs and niggers were sworn in and supplied with pistols. Chan. Snow to policeman:—"No I shall not interfere as long as the boys do nothing but yell—Rock chalk! Jay Hawk—K: U.: if they attempt to do anything contrary to law and order I think I could stop it." Right, Professor. Lamar, Sawtell and Blackman were kept in Lawrence by a guard of eight men, with muskets and fixed bayonets. The Faculty who were down to see the game: Chancellor Snow, Profs, Bailey, Sayre, Mayer, Crotty, Dunlap, Carruth, Newson, Slosson, Ganfield, Moody, Watson, Ward. Strings for all string instruments at Fluke's. The Pennant Ours. By the decision of the umpire at the last game between Baker and Washburn, K. S. U. has the triangular league pennant. We have worked hard for it and have won it fairly. It now stands us in hand to organize at the very opening of school next fall, a strong foot-ball team and sweep the field with it. Three cheers for our ball club! The special commencement correspondent of the Lawreuce Journal has been going out of his way to stab his enemies in his reports. No attempt has been made to tell the truth, or to treat all fairly in his reports of the commencement proceedings. When the representative of a daily paper stoops to such low despicable tricks as the Journal reporter has been guilty of it is time that his methods were exposed. Of course the proprietor of the Journal is not responsible for the biased reports in his paper, and has no means of knowing that they are written to reward the friends and punish the enemies of the reporter. The Harwood Guitar and Mandolins at Fluke's. John Sullivan, the Kansas City lawyer, and one of the best friends the University has, delivered the address to the graduating law class on Monday. The address was well worthy of the occasion. It was a credit to Mr. Sullivan, to the class, and to the University, of which Mr. Sullivan is an honored graduate. Prof. A. R. Marsh, of Harvard, who left the University two years ago and has been traveling in Europe since, is here for commencement. Prof. Marsh has many friends in Kansas who are glad to see him here for the Quarter Centennial celebration. Straw Hats in every style at Abe Levy's. The Celebrated Washburn Guitars and Mandolins at Fluke's. A. L. Burney, '90, left his banking duties for, a few days at commencement. Dr. John H. Long, '77, of Chicago, one of the University's most noted graduates is attending the Quarter Centenial anniversary LAWRENCE AND ATCHISON Business Colleges. The Lawrence Business College, which has been established twenty-two years and has a constituency all over the west, has recently been purchased by Coonrod & Smith, proprietors of the Atchison Business College, and the two schools will hereafter be under one management. These colleges have always enjoyed an exceptional reputation for the completeness of their courses of study as well as for the thoroughness with which instruction has been imparted, and the present management, with their increased facilities, will spare neither expense nor individual effort to bring the work of both schools to a still higher degree of efficiency. Each will be equipped with all the appliances for successfully teaching the science of business, and will be in charge of instructors who are familiar with the latest and best methods employed in their several departments. The same advantages in every respect will be offered at both schools, and all scholarships issued will be good at either institution. The apartments occupied by the Lawrence college in the National Bank building of this city, will be re-papered throughout and otherwise improved, making them, with their steam heat, fully equal to the quarters of the Atchison college and unsurpassed by any similar institution in the country. A handsome catalogue representing both colleges will soon be issued and should be in the hands of every young person who expects to attend a business college the coming year. A copy will be mailed free upon application. Address Coonrod & Smith at either Lawrence or Atchison, Kansas. John A. Rush, '90, is reporting the Quarter Centenial for his paper, the Kansas City Journal. W. E. Higgins, '88, is shaking hands with old friends. E. F.
