of Kearny have contributed their money
for a purpose that will not be a success.
Over $165 was donated for the purchase of
a gold medal and an effort was made to
enlist the attention of the very best foot
ball players in the State. and the origina-
tors of the idea had planned to lave the
games decided at Cosmolitan Park. Kear-
ny. Besides the clubs from Newark and
Paterson this county was represented by
the Centreville Athletic Club of Bayonne.
and the International Athletic Club Of this
city announced their willingness to COM

was arranged accordingly with the names
of these clubs among the probable con-
testnats. The games were to have been
begun Saturday between the Centrevilles

enthusiastic over the arrangement. and
at the last minute decided to Withdraw
without the formality of notifying the Kear-
ny people. and a large crowd gathered,
but Centreville did not appear, and their |
opponents rather than d%isappoint the
spectators saw a game for their money.
