ON THE ROLLERs.

MAAcoTs 8; wooDMAN-TRUEs O.
The Mascots of Gardiner defeated the Woodman-
Trues of this city at the Bijou Saturday night by
three straight goals in about forty mir utes. The
ing on rubber rollers, but when they went to Gar
diner they played on them TO accommodate the
Maseots, who were unaccustomed TO lockwood.
When the game last night was arranged the Mascots
were asked to return the favor and use boxwood
This they utterly refused to do and therefore the
two games cannot be counted as fair test between
the two clubs. The Mascots play strong game
and many expressed desire TO see them in a game
with the Bilious. Joe Norway was referee.

The Gloucesters were defeated at Bath Saturday
night by score of to Q. The first goal was won
by the Gloucesters in four minutes, the second by
the Alamedas in nine minutes, the third by the

NTH by the Alamedas in thirty seconds and one
minute respectively Roberts got two rushes;
Gloucesters three. Fred Kimbal of Bath, referee.
Doe of the Gloucesters unable to play having q
felon on his finger, and so the Gloucesters played
only five men. The reports that have been sent
from Bath in regard to the game have not mention
ANOTHER CIRCUS.
The Granite Citys were scheduled to play the
Alamedas at Bath Saturday night, but owing to the
Gloucesters' game Manager Morse postponed the
league game. 1t seems the Granite Citys were moi
parties to this agreement and went to Bath to play
Leighton of the Granite Cftys says that the Ala
medas would not play the game, and that the
Granite Ctys claimed it by forfeiture. Whether
the league directors will allow it to the Granite
Citys or not remains to be seen, but if they do i
will be good lesson to Manager Morse that there
are other clubs in the league besides his and tina
when they are scheduled to play they should b
consulted In regard to postponement. The report
from Bath say the game will be played next Thurs
day, but Mr. Leighton'S despatch would indicate
that this was another one sided arrangement.
