Staten Island, 17; Harvard, 15.

The nine played its seventh game of the season Saturday afternoon on Jarvis field with the Staten Island Athletic Club team, which is composed of men well known as old players on college nines, including Tyng, the famous Harvard pitcher. It was the first time the Staten Island team had played together this season and their lack of practice was painfully evident. The Harvard nine did not do justice to the great amount of careful practice which it has received; indecision, bad throwing, and poor base running were the rule.

Staten Island came first to the bat but made no runs. Harvard followed with five runs in succession, owing to an opportune base hit of Dean's, but Staten Island made six runs in the second inning and Harvard did not catch up again. The features of the game were the home run by Howland, the batting of Willard and Henshaw, the double play by the Staten Islands, and a pick up by Wood in the fourth inning. The game occupied three hours and was so void of interest that nearly everyone had left the field before its finish. Only eight innings were played. In the fifth inning. McLeod was replaced by Hawley in the pitcher's box. Each side made seventeen errors. The umpire was incompetent; he was not in the game and his decisions were unjust to both sides. Harvard played Staten Island last year on May 4; Staten Island won 10 to 3 in seven innings. Appended is the score of Satterday:
