White Pines did not play as well as
usual, and think perhaps there will be
a big difference in the next game.
There was large crowd of spectators
to witness the game, and contrary to
general expectations everything was
quiet. This may have been partly
due to the action of Mr. Culver, who
shut up his bar during the day. The
Clarion club have been written to
play another game at the same place
on Saturday next, but as yet no an
swer has been received. The "Blue
Stockings" of this place have also
challenged the "Red Caps" of Clarion
to play them on the same grounds on
the same day.
The walking match between A.
G. Porter and G. S. Hunter, which was
to have taken place yesterday, did not
come of, and each party seems dis
posed to blame the other. Mr.. Hun
ter says he was on the ground prompt.
ly and Mr.. Porter failed to put in an
appearance. Mr.. Porter SAYS that
Notwithstanding his request that each
party put up the amount of the wager
in the hands of some responsible man,
Mr.. Hunter never "came down" Thus
it is at the present period. Whether
the amateur Westons will ever again
have an opportunity to test the mus
cles of their legs over the long road
from here to Clarion, we are at loss
to determine. If both mean business,
it is pity that they cannot have an
opportunity to lose their money.
IS. Fl. Haslet, Capt. Ridgway, Jno.
Mcfarland, and some other gentle
men were up the creek looking after
some deer, last week. They found lots
Of partridgcs and squirrels, but up to
the time that Mr.. Haslet returned, on
Friday, no deer had been killed,
though one or two had been shot at.
On account of the absence eff one
of the charter applicants, the Odd

was anticipated on Thursday evening
