Gainesville Tour Closes the
Season.
Last Thursday night the baseball team left on the midnight
train for Gainesville, where two
games of ball were played with
the Oak ball team of that city.
Both games resulted in victories
■for Stetson.
In the first game, with Pelot in
the box, Stetson allowed three
runs in the first inning. After
this the team settled down and
only allowed Gainesville to score
two more runs. Stetson scored
several times in the early innings, ?
and finally tied the score at 5-5)
in the eighth inning. Stetson
wras last at the bat and in the
last half of the ninth inning she
managed to score the winning<|
run. The final score was, Sfcet-^
son 6, Gainesville 5. The feature
of the game was the heavy hitting
of the whole Stetson team and the
three base hit by Kirby to the
center field boards.
The second game* in which
Mickle was in the box, was an
easy victory for Stetson, with the
final score : Stetson 6, Gainesville
3.
The team report a fine time,
and that they were well treated
by the Gainesville boys.

Mr. E. N. Hell, an earnest ministerial student at Stetson, is
proving a successful pastor in the
big State of Texa*. He writss :
''I came to Ft. vVorth, Texas,
January 1, 1905, as pastor of the
North Ft. Worth Baptist church.
This was a small, weak church at
that time but now has & Sunday
School of 215 scholars, a church
membership of 875, and the best
congregations in her history. This
winter has been mild and ever)
Sunday of the new year lias witnessed additions to the church, at
our regular services.
"In these two years I have married thirty-nine couples, but have
not yet found a girl for myself."
Mr. W. P. Kiles writes from
near-by New Smyrna :—
My line of work for the past
five years has been with the ton-
sorial artist, am still scraping the
faces of people from every clime,
in the quiet little town of New
Smyrna. I like my work more
and more, but my mind often
carries me back to the many happy days at Stetson. Rest assured
that 1 shall make an effort to enjoy at least a part of this commencement."
Miss Elizabeth Longwell, with
true scientific brevity, writes from
the Empire State:
"I am a teacher of Chemistry,
Physics, Solid Geometry and Trigonometry in the Newark High
School."
Girls Give Program—Poet

The fact that the young ladies
vho compose the Young Women's
Christian Association have much
energy and progressiveness was demonstrated last Friday evening at
the entertainment held undertheir
auspices in the Auditorium.
As the event had been but little advertised, the audience was
rather small and contained mostly students. The numbers by Professors Morse, Hill and Suhrie
need no comment to those who
know their standards. fn'e quartet, composed of Messrs. Webb
Hill, D. Carlton, Cotton and W.
Mickle, did well, especially, con-
si iering that they have not done
quartet work together before.
Miss Eiizibeth Oi-rsori, so justly
popular among the student body,
and recently elected President of
the Y. W. 0. A., surprised and
delighted her audience with her
ability as a reader.
The numbers were arranged in
the following order:
1. Organ Sprin - Serenade
Prof. Morse.
( 3. Vocal Solo May Morning
( Prof. Webb Hill.
c 3 Heading Selected
c Prof. Suhrie.
( 4. Quartet Fairy Moonlight
c5. Reading Higher Culture in Dixie
c Miss Carson.
( 6. Vocal Solo As the Dawn
? Prof. Webb Hill.
f 7. Quartet Vive la Cookery Maid
) Last Saturday evening's program was, as announced in last
week's number, a commemoration of Longfellow's centenary.
No program of the year has
equaled it. The spirit in which
each member performed his part
did respect to the occasion.
This was different from any
program we have ever had be-
