Preps Scared, Last Friday evening three Preps went over into the mountains back of Shingletown to camp out. About twelve o’clock their slumbers were disturbed by a knocking at the door of the cabin, a dark lantern was flashed in their faces, and they were commanded to produce their eata bles, which consisted mainly of bread and cheese. The “moon shiners” (?) at the point of a re volver deprived the scared youngs sters of everything and then, chok ing back their laughter and glee at the success of their ruse, retired some distance and enjoyed a mid night feed. It was not until the next day that the badly scaied Preps learned that it was some of their own classmates and acquaintances who had so completely taken them in. The University Library at Ithaca, New York, received a valuable col lection of letters and correspondence of the late Bayard Taylor as a donation from Mrs. Taylor, with a promise of his Faust collection later. The papers are very valuable from an educational point of view. The only condition imposed by the donor is that no part of the writings shall be published during Mrs. Taylor’s life. Base Ball. Continued, from ist. page hits off their favorite pitcher, Mc- Lane, while the real fact of the matter was that State out batted Fordham throughout the game.

Some Notes on the Eastern Trip, “Andy” Lytle, Esq., accompa nied the ‘ ‘State’ ’ team and helped the boys win from Dickinson. After every Dickinsonian cheer came Andy’s thrilling cry, “State” against the world.” It is reported on good authority that “Billy” Yoder will take a trip to London immediately after his graduation here in June —By Jove ! State’s players were fortunate enough to occupy the same coach as the Hon. William Jennings Bryan en-route to Harrisburg. “Andy” Lytle explained his views on several weighty political matters with great fluency. A certain member of State’s team got mixed up with a wedding party at Lancaster and drew a thunder of applause by kissing the bride. The murky fumes of the ‘ ‘Sub way” somewhat impaired the bat ting eyes of State’s players. Dr. George S. Conant, who willed his brain to Cornell to aid scientific investigations, was robbed of his wish through a blunder of the un dertaker who embalmed the body before learning of the peculiar char acter of the will. —Ex.
