The Island cham

| plonship and trephy that tne A beg weits

and their adu irers wished ao dearly to re- main ion Charlottetown passed ‘to the Crystals last night, after one of the best games «f hockey ever played bere. The pace was very fast througbout and both

teams showed splendid endurance. Though individual play and one man rushes are not to

be encouraged, still the play oftnis kind witneswed last night was in every way excel- lent. Combination play wae sbi!lfully and effectively used by beth sides, Kill- ing though the pace was, checking wae not very severe. In weighithe Crystals nad the sedvamtage and profited by it. Their agile opponents generally outskated them, but the Oryatals’ defence was admirable. Bethune, Howait and Sullivan «cored a goal each for the Abbies. Grady, Baker, McArthur and Saunders scered for the Crystals,

The second Abegweits just aucceeded in the Stars When in the second half, the score siood 6—4 for the Sters things were blue. But the Abegweits fally deserve the name of whirlwind fiai«here, for in a very short time near the end of the game they ran up three cewsecutive goals. Previous to this the Stars had secured three goa!s io succession. The game was fast and interest- ing aod wae an excellent example of hockey. The final score stwod 7-6 for the Abeg- weits. There was much dispute over tbe referce’s decision, many claiv.ing 7-7 to be the corr-ct score. Mr. Geo. Roy refereed the senior match, and Mr. Grant of New Glasgow, the secord.

The assemblage at the rink was one of the largeat ever alteuding a hockey match.

An Exelusive Book.

The “Almanach de Gotha” is the most exclusive book of its kind, and perliaps of any kin@ im the world, and to get one’s name ip its pages implies that vue is either an exalted personage or something very much like it. And of those whose names appear very few nre able to boast of having a portrait between its select and scarlet covers.— London Letter.

tvhy He Hurried.

“Young man.” said the old gentle- man, “my daughter is too young to marry. A girl of her age cannot be sure of ber ewn mind in a matter of such importance.”

“l fully realize that.” replied the young man, who had just secured the fair one’s consent. “That's why I don't want to wait.”—Chicago Pest.
