First Baseball Games of the Season in DeLand. STETSON GAINS DECISIVE VICTORIES- The East Florida Seminary baseball team, from Gainesville, played here Friday and Saturday#afternoons and received two decisive defeats at the hands of the Stetson nine, the scores of the two games standing, respectively, 13 to 1 and 10 to 7 in favor of Stetson. This makes four straight games won by Stetson this .season, and the boys are straining every nerve to keep up to this high standard. The games were attended by only moderate crowds, and the Athletic Association lacked several dollars of meeting the expenses of the occasion. It is to be hoped that during the remainder of the season more Interest will be shown, and that the baseball nine will receive the backing it deserves. FIRST CAME. stetson went first to Sat, and the boys landed on Harmon, the Gainesville slab expert, with a dull, sickening thud. Several clean hits were made, and the visiting team were speedily up in the air, allowing men to take bases and score on the merest taps. Stetson made six runs in this inning. When Gainesville came to bat, they found that they were up against a tough proposition in Pelot, and they went down in one ,two, three order, without getting near first. After the first inning, Harmon and his support pulled themselves together, and -shut Stetson out until the seventh, when our boys again landed on the twirler for several hits and brought in five more men. Coombs was substituted for Harmon in the eighth and succeeded in holding Stetson down to two more runs. During all of these innings, few of the Gainesville men got so far as first. In tlie ninth, however, Thomas was hit by a pitched ball and given base. He reached second on a bunted ball, stole third, and came home on a clean hit by Boulware. The score by innings was as follows: Stetson—fi 0 0 0 n 0 5 0 2—13. Gainesville—0 0 0000 0 0 1—1.

Gainesville went first to bat. and succeeded in getting around twice before they were retired. Stetson made two runs also in this inning, and added two more in the third. In the fifth. however, Gainesville brought in three men, and in the sixth two more. The -core now stood 7 to 4 in favor of the visiting team, and the day looked i>n> for Stetson, but Iter boys responded nobly and tallied four more runs. Gainesville was shut out for the other three innings, and Stetson advanced her score to 10 in the seventh.

The South Florida Military Institute team, from artow, will arrive in DeLand tomorrow evening and will play Friday afternoon and Saturday. games to be called promptly at 3 o'clock. Ftetson defeated this team two weeks ago in the two closest games •1l" hf>$ yet played, and since then both teams have been strengthened. These games will probably be the best of 1' ■ easow and everyone should at- te" ' •','1 give the home boys a good s<md-oflf. Business College Education, America leads the world in business. Her position of pre-eminence is due to her splendid resources, her geographical ] osition freeing her from entangling alliances, tlie splendid energy of her people. This preeminence is not due to the technical education of her neople for business. Germany leads the world in technical busines education. There are special schools all over the empire de- ••" ' I ' lms'res - e lucatibn and in all the co ' seho'nls of Germany boys ■ o-ht the nrincinles and methods r>f eoun eree and industry. They are taught foreign languages with reference to its business utility. There are 145 chambers of commerce scattered throughout Germany. These bodies are composed of the great business •en. por years they have fostered the growth of schools These schools are of five trades, terminating with Commercial Universities. Every 01m of th° 145 chambers of commerce has voted money to maintain these business schools. All the details of business theory are taught. The government appropriates large sums for business editcation. The whole empire is alive with business activity. Their consular service aims to enlarge commercial Germany. If Germany had America's resources and geographical position, this education would make her business men simply irresistible. Every one knows what Germany has accomplished in philosophy, in music, and in University research work. The Stetson Business College with its high ideals, is one of the agencies for accomplishing in America what Germany is striving for. People hardly realize the importance of this work to the business world. Introductory bookkeeping, business arithmetic, com- nercial law, business form, commercial geography, the common English branches are tlie elements of such an education. These being mastered, the next in importance would be banking, wholesale jobbing house work, the work of commission houses, renting agencies, freight offices, shorthand, typewriting, telegraphy. Toe aim of fiie Stetson Business College is not to turn a lot of smart men into business. shrewd at driving a bargain, but men capable of mastering and controlling the fundamental elements of sound business. «» » » Vesper Service. Only about forty people attended Vespers last Sunday. The pouring rain was too much for most of the musically inclined. Those who did attend, however, were charmed with the excellent and delightful program that had been arranged. We are also pleased to hear that the same program with a few'changes, will be repeated next Sunday. It is hoped that Miss Pearl Spaulding. who was ill last Sunday, will be able to sing. The tenor solo by Mi-. Hill was breathlessly enjoyed by the audience and of the anthems by the choir the "Recessional" was doubtlessly the most beautiful. ORDER OF SERVICE Organ Prelude.

A Fine Production of the College Play. When the College Play comes off, there is sure to be a large audience on hand and "Ingnomar" was no exception to the rule. The advertising had been plentiful and everyone was interested beforehand in the "1500 feet of specially prepared scenery," and the imported costumes from Philadelphia, to say nothing of the play itself. This play is perhaps the most difficult that lias ever been attempted here and the actors deserve congratulations for producing it so successfully. The place of honor should be given Mr. LenfeSty who nobly played tlie role of the hero, Ingomar. He made a magnificent barbarian, fierce and warlike, but yet with an innate gentleness and high sense of honor that won our admiration. The scene in the barbarian camp, with its setting of dusky woods, and the savage Alemanni quarreling in the foreground, would have struck terror to a timid heart. Alastor, the spokesman of the tribe, was the incarnation of fierceness; it took a brg stretch, of imagination to believe that the black-haired savage could be our college senior, Mr. Lofberg. Perhaps the most pleasing scene was that in which Parthenia tames the giant barbarian. Miss Morrison made a bewitching Greek maiden, and her acting was especially good in this scene. The two principal characters were, of course, Ingomar and Parthenia, but mention should be made of scheming Polydore and the dignified Timarch. as well as of Myron and Actea, with whom we have no fault to find, except that they appeared remarkably young to be the parents of Parthenia. The Greek costumes with their rich and varied colors, added much to the picruresqueness of the play, which afforded abundant opportunity for artistic and effective grouping. The scenery too, was an important element in the effectiveness of the play, and we owe a debt of gratitude to the student folk who worked at it so unflaggingly. In fact we feel under obligations to all who in any way contributed to the success of "Ingomar." CAST OF CHARACTERS. The Timarch of Massilia Mr. Mcllvaine Greek Citizens of .Massilia.
