The Abegweits’ Trip.

Tus Abegweits returned from their trip to Halifax on Saturday evening, all in good health and soundin body, only excepting for 14 indry bru'ses and scratches, the inevitable | resul “of such hard football as they had during the week. In Halifax they put up | Hotel, which was

Johu McDonald.

As allreaders of Tas Examiner know, the game resulted in a magaificeat victory for the Abeywelts, by a score of 4 to O. Hubert McDonald was the terror of the Wanderers inthe line up. Several times he burst through their line, only to be checked by the backs. Bat he was not to be stopped every time, fur once he got the ball a few feet from the touch line, about thirty-five rards from the Wanderers’ goal line, and after a most brilliant dash throngh the Wanderers’ forwards aad backs, ran within six inches of teuch, directly behind the Wanderers’ goal. This was soon cunverted into a goal by a kick from Moore, Robin- sn made a beautiful drop at goal shortly after, which missed the gual just by about six inches. ‘There was great cheering for the Abegweits this half.

In the evening the Abegweits attended the Academy of Music as the guests of the Wanderers.

The next day's game was with the D4l. housie team. The Abegweits have twice before met the College boys, viz , in Pictou, in 1887, and in Chariottetown, in 1888, and on both occasions the game resulted in a draw. Friday's game was not more de- cisive. The College team won the toss and chose the goal that would give them the wind. In the first half the A begweits sev- eral times scrimmaged the ball down near the Dalhousie twenty-five yard line, only to have it returned by a vigorous punt froin McKinnon, the Dalhousie half-back. Sulli- van did good work in returning the ball and the Abegweits quarter back play could not be excelled. Once Hundle had the ball almost over the Dalhousie gval line, but was called back by the referee. In the first half the Abegweits rouged once. This was the only rouge in the game. In the second half the Abegweits were kept pretty much on the defensive. The scrimmages were the hottest the ‘‘Abbes” had ever been in. Both the Abegweits quarters were injured and rendered incapable of any offensive play. But the half backs all did good work and every attempt of the Delhousians to carry the ballover the line was frustrated. The excitement and cheering were tremen- dous. Unce Perey Macdonald, by a fine tun, succeeded in carrying the ball well down the field, but it sooncame back to within the Abegweits twenty-five, where it re- mained for the rest of the game. The game thus resulted in a draw, with a slight alvantage tothe Collegians, inasmuch as the Abegweits were on the defensive during the second half, and had rouged once. In the evening the Abegweits were the guests of the College boys at a dinner in the Queen. Everything went off very enjoy- able, and by all the hope was expressed that the next merry meeting would not be at a too distant date.

Potatoes were selling here. on Saturday at 21 cents—an advance of one cent since Thursday.

The Presbytery of P. E. Island meets in the Presbyterian Church here on Wednesday next, the 12th inst., at 11 a. m.

On Saturday, the Ist inst, the M. A. Starr took over to Point du Chene seven- teen carloads of freight, probably the larg- est amount of freight taken away at one time by any of the Island buvats.

On Thursday morning Messrs. Avard & Drummond snipped 400 sheep and lambs on board the St. Lawrence, and on the fol- lowing morning Mr. John H. Henry ship- ped 410 for the United States. On the same days twelve horses were sent across, six of which belonged to Mr. Edward Kins- man.

An event which has been the frequent topic of conversation for some time past occurred on the evening of Wednesday last, viz., the nuptials of Mr. George A. Godkin, jeweler of this town, and Miss Sadie M., daughter of W. H. Brown, Esq , of St. Eleanor’s. The marriage knot was tied by the Rev. Henry Dickie, the cere- mony being performed at the home of the bride.

tev. D. J. Gregory McDonald held a meeting of the leading men of his congre- gration im the vestry of St. Paul’s Church here on Thursday evening, at which the subject «f temperance was discussed. It is the intention of Rev. Mr. Macdonald to establish a branch League of the Cross in this community, a society which was origin- ated by Cardinal Manning in England. Father Gregory intends preaching upon the subject of temperance on Sunday, the 16th inst., when this matter will be brought before the congregation. Wo also learn that the pastors of Miscouche and Kinkora intend establishing similar secicties in their congregations at an early day.

Mr. J. 8S. Mayo, the well-known oi! dealer, arived from New Brunswick the other day, and tel s of an incident that tock place cently on board the C. P. KR. train from St, John. Amongst the first-class passengers was a burly-looking Prince Edward Islander, who took particular delight in displayiag his wealth iu the shape of several ten dollar bills, and teasing the newsboy on the train. When within a few miles of McAdam Janction the man in question purchased prize package for aquaiter, and handing a $10 bill ef the Confederate States of America to the boy, promptly asked for the change. The news agent quickly put the bill in his pocket, and said; ‘‘see here, mister, as soon as we arrive at McAdam Junction you will be arrested | for endeavoring to pass worthless money, and | this is not your first attempt” ‘Mister” wilted in a moment, and begged so hard that the boy decided not to prosecute, but the Prince Edward Islander soon lett the train. —Quehec Chronicle,
