Abegweits Win Both Games.— First —7-4, Secoud —7-2. At last was the ice in a fit condition for hockey. Nothing better could be desired. The cevotees of the game were out en masse, and witnessed two of the most in- teresting and cleanest games ever played in Charlottetown In the senior match both teams were very strong, as individuel players and et-ck haodler-, but last n ight saw combination work entered into with greater skill and eo filenee than ever be- fore. The Vic vocit fast ard active playing, vuuia bv ictocd up against the combined rushes of the Abgeweit for- wards. The puck was acually passed with accuracy and without fear. The game was in several instances decidedly rough, aod heavy falls were frequent. For roughness McLeod finished on the boards. Bat it is not io be supposed that heckeyists will ever eutirely eliminate checkiog and use the stick alone, Frem a spectacular aspect everything pleased. The runs of Sullivan, Howat, aod of H. Brebaut and Worth were the liven'ng in- cidents. T.e playing of Unsworth wes splendid, and McLeod’s dashes were breash catching moments. Of Betbune’s work at cover point itis enougb that the puck never remaiced an instant near him. By b.s lifts be captured three goals. S:rrague was in excellent formand played well for bis side. The Abegweits have made a decided gain in J. MecMillaa. Yn> goal tespers wee both new men, Woods was a surprise to all and stopred some fierce shots. Jost played well and wary. Tbe puck was faced off by Macleod and H. Brehaut. In less than ten minutes Bethune lifted a goal. Abegweits 1, Victorias 0 In a few minutes H. Brehaut rushed & gcal. Abegweits J, Victorias 1. ~ The next goal wae made by Sullivan, who by a spleodid rush down the ice was enabled to score. Abegweits 2, Vic- torias 1. Bethune agein ecored by a long lift. Abegweits 3, Victorias 1. One mere goal was made in this half. Worth by acleverrun scored for the Vic- torias. Abegweits 3, Victorias 2. The second half began very fast. Sooa afer play a goal was secured by Sullivan. Abegweits 4; Victorias 2. From vow to finish the scoring was not slow. MeLeod, Howatt avd Bethune made a goaleach. H. Brehaut was everywhere, and was rewarded by making two goals. Abegweits 7; Victorias 4. Tim: came without more scoring. The match between the second teams was milder hockey than the: cther, and altbough the ouicome was not so momen- tous it was fully as interesting. The Vic- torias were the same team that played bes fore, while the Abegweits were considerably changed. O. McKachern was one of the Temperance Crousabers.-~Public enter- tainment in Wright’s hall on Monday evening. Doors open at 7, entertainment at 730. Instead of tickets there will be a colicction.
