POOTBALL AT THE PARK.

———

Abegweits Victorious

nan

Yestexoay, the day set apart for the celebration of the seventy-third birthday of Her Majesty Queen Victoria was observed in this city in the usual way. The weather throughout the day was beautiful. Most of the public offices and places of business were closed, and there was a profuse dis- play of bunting.

At noon a reyal salute of twenty-one guns was fired from Fort Edward by a de tachment from No. 1 Battery, G. A., under command of Captain Davison.

Shortly before one o'clock the steamer Heather Belle arrived with the New Glas- gow football team and upwards of one hun- dred excursionists on board. After attend- ing te the wants of the department of the interior and spending a short time studying the architecture of the city and admiring the beauties of that fence and the elegant curvatures in the sidewalks in cer- tain quarters of the city, the great bulk of the party repaired to the Park.

As early as one o'clock people beyan to pour into Victoria Park to witness the two football matches advertized to take place By 2 v'colock, over 1200 people were on the grounds anxious for the fun. As a prelude to the more important event of the after- noon, the Prince of Wales College team played a match with St. Dunstan’s second fifteen, anc| a very pretty game it was throughout. Both teams were very evenly matched, snd neither scored a single point. Below are the players :

ST, DUNSTAN'S TEAM :

Goal—J L Salomon.

Half Backs—J T Gallant, N Casaault, St C Gallant, (Capt), P B Gaudet.

Quarter Backs—R Johnston, F Murphy.

Forwards—-Jos Gallant, Jos Gillis, Thos Byrne, Wm Daly, S J McKeuna, W Mce- Kenna, J O'Brien, V Robins.

PRINCE OF WALES TEAM :

Goal—Addison Miller.

Backs-—-P J Trainor, W McPhail, (Capt.)

Half Backs—T A McLean, M B Trainor.

Quarter Backs—T D Rogers and Wm Martin.

Forwards —N Carruthers, M McPher- son, C McCallum, J Jones, E Jordon, J Blacquiere, J F Owen, Fred Kennedy.

The St. Danstan captain won the toss, and Salomon, the full back, made 4 fine kick off. The bill was quickly returned by Miller. After some loose play near centre the ball was ‘‘held”’ and scrimmaged. The St. Dunstan's forwards played well and slowly gained ground. In the second scrimmage the ball was passed to Miller, who made a good kick, but it was prompt- ly returned by St. Dunstan's backs. The greater part of this half was taken up with scrimmages near the Prince of Wales 25- yard line, and at times it looked very dan- gerous for the latter. But the ball was gradually worked out of danger and sent down the field. Half time was called dur- # scrimmage near the 25-yard line of the Prince of Wales.

After ten minutes’ resi, the teams chang- ed goals. Muller made a good kick off, but the ball was promptly returned by T. Gal- lant. Several lively scrimmages near centre followed, and the Prince of Wales forwards seemed to gain ground. After several good runs by the backs of both sides, the Prince of Wales students were allowed a free kick ona foul. Time was called while the bal! was being scrimmaged in centre fiel il. The game thus resulted in a draw. McPhail and Miller played well for their side, while Casault and J T Gallant made some fine runs for St. Dunstan's. Two halves of twenty-five minutes each were played.

Reterce—Jas Johnstone.

aBrowetTs, 8; NeW GLAscew, VU.

The great attraction, of course, was the game between the Abegweits and the New Glasgow team. It will be remembered that these teams played in New Glasgow last Queen's Birthday, and the former were easy victors. This spring it was very difficult co get the Abegweits together, and for a time it seemed as if the New Glisyow men would not get a chance tu wipe out their defeat. Two or three of the more active members, however, worked hard and got a team able to give battle to New Glas- gow, and notwithstanding the boasting of the Chronicle—New Glasgow was white- washed. Taking into consideration the fact that the team has never practiced together the result is all the more to be wondered at. Following are the men as they lined up for the kick-off :—

ABEGWEITS.

Goal—C McKinnon.

Half-backs—H Robinson, J Sullivan, N Rundle.

Quarter-backs—Jas Rundle, H D John- 80h.

Forwards—H McDonald, A H MeNeill, 3 J McDonald, J A McDonald, R P Gaudet, JC McKianon, J Johnstone, E Matheson, J F Whear.

NEW @LAscow,

Goal—E McLeod,

Half-backs—H Graham, R McColl, Geo Patterson, A D McRie.

Quarter-backs—J F Fraser and W Thompson.

Forwards—Jno Fraser, D Fraser, D Campbe!l!, D K Grant, F H Ooops, E

McKay, W Rice, H Andrews,

As both teams lined up the great differ- ence In the size of the respective forwards was apparent. Robinson, the Abegweit half-back, opened hostilities with a good kick-off, and the forwards following up the ball prevented a return, Three or four lively scrimmages followed near the south 26-yard line of New Glasgow. Rundle, one of the Abegweit quarters, quickly secured the ball as it came out of one of the scrimmages, and after dodging the New Glasgow backs, secured the first touch down for the Charlottetown team, amid

great applause. The ball was taken out and placed, but no gual was scored. The New Glasgow team quickly kicked‘off at the 25-yard line, but the ball was promptly returned. More scrimmages in the vicinity of the New Glasgow goal ensued. Rundle

advantage well. Several scrimmages took place near centre, and more loose play followed. In a tackle after following the ballup, Wheat was knocked a’most sensless, and a cessation of play was ordered. In a few minutes he recovered, the ground was cleared and play resumed with a scrimmage. The New Glas- gow forwards gradually gained ground and by good play sent the ball down near centie field. During some bad play here, the ball was muffed several times. Dr. Johuson again secured it, and after dodging the New Glasgow backs, by a mignificent burst of speed secured another touchdown. Nogoal. Thiscertainly was the star play of the afternoon, and was wildly applauded by the appreci tive crowd.

The forwards followed the ball well, and their tackling was excellent. Two halvesof twenty-tive minutes each were. played with ten minutes rest. As an exhibition of running, tackling, and passing it was certainly the best seen in this city for a long time.

At the conclusion of the play cheers were given fur the Abegweits and the New Glasgow team, and Johuson, the Abegweit quarter back, was ‘tbounced”’ by his club- mates, after which the visturs were driven to the Hotel Wavies. After tea the Heather Belle left on return to Pictou with the ex

rHE DAY AT SOURIS, The Queen's birthday, the 24:h, was partially observed at Souris in the ser-

vices held in the Methodist and Presby- terian churches, in which Her Majasty was specially remembered in the prayers of the otliciating clergymen. At the close of the Sunday schvol of the former church, the Superintendent re juested the children to sing ‘* God Save the Queen,” which they did right reyally. The day, however, was more fully observed on Monday. Aj) the stures in the village were closed. Early in the morning two or three rounds from the cannon of the Souris Artillery awakened the drowsy to a sense of the situation. Soon afterwards the strains of the brass band were heard in the vicinity of the skating rink. Then came the military procession which paraded some of the principa! streets, the riflemen haulting in front of the freight shed, and firing a fer The big cannon was next resorted to, from which a royal salute was fired at nédon. The Stars and Stripes at the residence of Consular Agent C. C. Carleton floated gaily on the breeze, as did also the British flsg from shipping in the harbor and one or two private dwellings. This, we may add, was the most geuerally observed and enthusiastically celebrated Queen's Birthday that ever was known in Souris. To Capt. Brennan much credit is due for the very creditable military dis- play on the occasion, and for the loyal way in which the day's proceedings, from beginning to end, were carried out:

—_ OO tO ——_——_———-— An Important Decision.

_—~

The Master of the Rolls gave judgment at noon to-day in the suit under the Mechanics Lien Act, brought by Robert Palmer & Co. against John Fennell and others, to enforce a lien on Dr. Warburtou’s house on Kent Street. His Lordship held that the plaintiffs were eutitled to their lien, and gave judgment in their favor with costs against Fennell and his assigne, Mr. Louis H. Davies. As Dr, Warburton offered no resistance to the payment of the claim, but simply desired to protect him- self and pay the right person, costs were awarded him to be paid out of the amount paid into Court. The lien on the premises was discharged. The judgment is a very lengthy one, and took nearly av hour to read’it. This being the first case under the Act, every possible objection was raised and had to be dealt with. --— ---- -— -- OOo e ——-—- --—-

The Way to Victoria Park. Six.— What did the Lieutenat-Governor mean by preventing the public from walk- ing along the shore between bigh and low water mark to Victoria Park? Surely he doves not seriously pretend to have any right to doas he did yesterday. It is to be hoped that the Lieutenant-Governor will stop short of closing of the harbor.

Sin,—We awoke this morning and found our little Island home in the eame beautiful spot notwithstanding the fact that we heard that the New Glasgow foot ball team, after ecmpletely demolishing the Abegeweits at Victoria Park yesterday would tow the Island back as atrophy of thei viceory. Something must have miscarried. We would suggest that they enlist the sympathy and assistance of the Halifax Garrison Artillery in their little sh//t-ing job, for we are of opinion

A gentleman who was present at the Hope River meeting held on Saturday eveuing writes: ** Mr. Warburton was the first to speak, and his principal theme was

trict—that he was an old Liberal. He took | credit for the reputation his father had by | being associated with Coles and Whelan— specially pleading that he should be elected because be wasa Liberal. He rdiculed the peoples’ platform, yet could not sub- stitute anything in lieu of it. He was op- the abolition of the Council, although he would be = satisfed with one

House. He riticuled Neil McLeod and Donald Ferguson, for offering, as he al- leged, to seli the tunnel for $47.527 per

year, and said that this would always meet every successive Cov- errment, who exposed the hypocrosy of his friend the lawyer, and showed that the Govern- ment were sailing under false colors. He said that the leader should have published his card so that the electors of the Prov- ince might know what they had to expect from him, and showed that Messrs. Mc- Leod and Ferguson did not offer to sell the tunnel scheme, but claimed that this Island was entitled to compensation for the bur- dens it is required to bear in contmbuting to the construction of Railways and Canals in the benefits of which it does not partici- pate, and that if the Island received tiis compensation, it did not by any means free the Dominion Governmeat from carrying on the terms of Union. He pointed out that the peoples’ platform required us to start right; and he showed that the indebt-

get our claims with the Dominion settled. Hle made a splendid show and left a good impression on the people.

J, C. Clark spoke briefly. fle was not in favor of outside representation and said that we had enough of she lawyers from Charlotte- town—if he wanted a doctor he would not pass Dr. MacNeill.

Thomas Doyle made a masteily appeal to the electors and showed them their duty ina very impressive manner.

Donaid McKay, Esq., M. P. P, spoke briefly and said there were too many lawyers in the House already and this district should be careful not to add to the number.
