THE BEST GAME YET.
The Martins Ferry Foot Hall Club Derca
cd for the First Time.

The Martins Ferry Foot hall Club Defeat
cd for the First Time.
The Martins Ferry foot ball club
which has made one OF the best records
OF any newly organized team in the
country was defeated on Saturday for
the fret time. The Beaver Falls did it
by "a score of IA to 0. As predicted by
the IyTRLLGENcgR the game was the
best ever played in the neighborhood.
1t was called at AS and the halves
were thirty minutes each.
Beaver Falls made two touch downs,
kicked one goal and lost one in the first
half and scored one touch down aud
lost one goal in the second. The three
touch downs were made by Morton. a
Geneva college man, and the kicking
WAS done by Weisner. Martins Ferry
averaged 1850 pounds and Beaver Falls
l55 pounds. +. L. Barber, OF Beaver
Falls, was referee and George Chessell,
Of Martins Ferry, acted as umpire.
What the visitors lacked in weight they
made up in superb work.
They work as team and not as lndl-
viduals, and in this way and good gem
eralship outplayed the Martins Ferry
boys. They moved like clockwork,
we're nearly always close together and
their bucking, rushing and screw V
work was more than Martins Ferry
could stand. Their players are expert
enced players and athletes, all being
gymnasium men and several college,
and tho wav thev worked together won
the admiration of everybody. The
team is very strong one and too much
for Martins Ferry with its limited
practice. The longest runs were made
by Gjertsen, Montgomery and Edwards,
OF Martins Ferry, and Weisner, Morton
and Furgeson, OF Beaver Falls. Gjert-
sen made two great kicks and Weisner
two. The fine all round playing OF
Gjertsen pleased everybody, and Nc
Aninch, Long, Edwards and Sweeney
did excellent work. Charles Mean
inch, a brother of Ed, the heavy
weight, played his first game and did
we'll. FurVoson was disabled and re-
lieved by Howarth, and Broomtield lay
with cramps in his leg for five minutes,
but resumed work.
The only Martins Ferry man who
was disabled was Giertsen, but only
temporarily. Knots appeared in the
muscles OF his lett leg, and latterly his
lace was badly cut. go.
The ground was in bad condition
and rain fell nil afternoon. Notwith-
standing this fact the attendance was
large. The ladies were out IN force.

statement that the outlook for the DEM
ocratic candidate for commissioner was

crat is within the fold when the votes

because it is raining and two or three
hundred remain at home. But rain or
shine there will be 600. This much is
conceded by the Democrats who know
