THE DARTMOUTH GAME.

The first Harvard-Dartmouth game was played yesterday afternoon at 4 P. M., before an audience of about 1000. The game opened with Harvard at the bat. Beaman reached first by an error of the second baseman. Tilden hit for three bases, bringing in Beaman, but was put out in his endeavor to reach home. Nichols got his base on balls, stole second and third, and came home on a passed ball. Willard struck out, and Allen went out pitcher to first. For Dartmouth, the first three men were struck out. Score, Harvard, 2; Dartmouth, 0.

In the second inning, Smith got his base on balls, took second on a passed ball, third on a wild throw by catcher. Wiestling went out on a foul tip, Smith came home on a hit by Edgerly, who stole second, and went to third on a wild throw by atcher. Winslow went out short-stop to first base, and Edgerly was put out while trying to come home on a passed ball. For Dartmouth, Quackenboss struck out; Chellis out at first, assist by pitcher; Seruton made a base hit, stole second, but was put out while trying to steal third. Score, 3 to 0.

Beaman struck out; Tilden hit to left fielder, who muffed, but was caught off his base and put out. Nichols got first by a fumble by third baseman, and scored on a passed ball, wild pitch and Willard's slogle. Allen and Smith followed with singles, the former coming in on a passed ball; Wiestling went out, second to first, and Smith was left on second. Dartmouth failed to score in this inning, and the tally was six to zero in favor of Harvard.

In the fourth Harvard was blanked for the first time, Tilden being the only man to get in a hit, but he was left at first. Dartmouth now made her first score on a two-bse hit by Quackenboss, a single by Chellis, and an error of judgment by Winslow, who held Scruton's fly to right field, but failed to field the ball home. McCarthy went out Wiestling to Willard, and the ining closed with the score six to one, for Harvard.

In the fifth, Harvard made three runs, two of them being earned, off a three-base hit by Nichols, a single by Willard, and another three-baser by Allen. Allen scored on a passed ball and Smith was put out at home in a foolish attempt to score. Dartmouth added two runs in this inning bringing the score up to 9 to 3 for Harvard. In the sixth, our nine failed to score for the second and last time; Dartmouth likewise receiving a blank, although Scruton reached first on a wild throw by Wiestling, and went around to third on two put-outs.

In the seventh, Harvard added one run. Willard went out, short-stop to first; Allen took first on balls, second on a passed ball, and scored on Smith's three-base hit, The latter, however, was put out at the home plate, and Edgerly went out in the same way as Willard did. Dartmouth added two runs. Dillon reached first on a muff by Willard, Springfield followed on an error of Smith, Dillon goint to third. Weeks flied out to Smith, and Hale went out on a foul tip to Allen. Springfield meanwhile had reached second, and Quackenboss' single brought both Dillon and Springfield in. Chellis, however, went out, Smith to Willard, and Quackenboss was left at first. Score, 10 to 5. Two more were made by Harvard in the eighth, on hits by Beaman and Tilden, and a wild throw by right-field which sent the ball beyond third base up to the seats, and let in Beaman and Tilden. No more runs were made; although Allen hit safely for first, he was left there, the outs being made by Winslow, McCarthy to Hale; by Willard. Chellis to Hale; and by Smith, McCarthy to Hale.

Dartmouth was blanked, the men going out in order, and the score remaining 12 to 5 in favor of Harvard. The ninth inning was not played, as the Dartmouth men had to leave. The coaching and base running of our team was wretched, and the play in this respect must be improved before any more games are played. The best batting was done by Tilden and Allen, and the finest fielding by McCarthy. It the seventh innin, Johnson injured his hand, and his place was taken by Artz, the regular catcher. A catch by Weeks in right field deserves especial mention. The Score:
