the actual time of playing was seventy
minutes, the longest limit allowed by the
rules OF the association. A great deal OF
time had to be deducted on account of
temporary knockouts to the players, al
though no one was seriously hurt. At
times men on both teams were completely
knocked out, but they were all game and
finally came up smiling.
The Alabamians had the ball and kicked
off at the opening. For the first FIVE min
utes the ball remained practically in the
middle of the field, and it looked as If
neither team could get an advantage If
anything, Auburn was little the stron-
ger, but as the players warmed UP, 1t be-
came apparent that the Georgians were
in better form than their opponents. The
ball vacillated for fifteen minutes between
the two goals, then Lovejoy of the Geor-
gians got 1t, and by magnificent feat
made the first touchdown. The goal was
kicked in fine form by Nally, which gave
the Georgians a score of six to nothing.
Auburn had nothing to her credit when
the first half was finished.
In the second half the Georgians made
another touchdown and kicked their goal,
making their score IL to 0, with only about
fifteen minutes until the end of the game,
when the Alabamians, taking the advan-
tage Of a magnificent kick in which the
ball was punted forward fifty yards,
made their only touchdown, the goal
which made their score 6, being kicked
just as time was called. Many people left
the grounds believing that Auburn had
been completely shut out
Throughout the game the Georgians
played in better form than the Alabama
ians. They made better end runs and dis
played superior strategy in every point.
Cannon for the Georgians clearly out
generalled Tichenor of the Alabamaians,
although the latter did some magnificent
individual work. Nally the pride of the
while Lovejoy kicked the prettiest goals
ever seen on any southern field.
In the first half great kick by Gam
mon, for the Georgians was all that kept
the Albamians from scoring. Just In the
nick of time, he sent the ball fifty yards
away from the goal, and made the way
clear for the first touchdown of the Geor-
gians.
The second touchdown for the Geor-
gians, in the second half, was made by
Cothran, who made an end run that set
the great crowd wild with delight
The star playing Of the game was done
by Nally, Blanch, Wight and Kent for
the Georgians, and by Tichenor and
Stokes for the Alabamians the bucking
of the latter being very fine.

Scott, John Cockerton. Frederick Kast
and William Aylott for criminally libell-
ing Earl Russell, Lady Scott's son-in-law,

you know that Earl Russell was expelled
from Oxford for malpractices and are you
also aware that he was guilty OF miscon-
duct with a Chlnaman who was after
wards shipped 70 China2"
Earl Russell said there was not the
slightest foundation for the story OF witt
ness misconduct with tho boy.
In continuation OF his cross-examina-
tion earl Russell admitted that Ayott
had slept In his cabin. Aylott was a noto-
rious liar, but witness had nevertheless
given him good character when he left
his service. The whole of Ayiott's state
ment, Earl Russell said was one filthy lie
None of the male defendants, Lord Russell
admitted, had ever attempted to blackmail
him.
Sir Frank Lockwood, Q. c., for the pros
eeution, re-examined Earl Russell, who, in
answer to questions, said that Lady Scott
had not objected to the tone Of the letters
which he had written to her.

letters written 70 Earl Russell by Lady
Scott, all Of which were couched in the
most affectionate terms, after which the
trial was adjourned until tomorrow.

Mckinley aud the Democratic Press.

1t is a significant fact, and 1t is set
ting Republicans to thinking. that the
Democratic prcss is reproducing. with
favorable comment. everything that Is
being said and done against Major Nc
Kinley by Republicans who are OPP
posing him for the nomination.
Senators Chandler and cullom have
recently made some statements calcu-
lated to prejudice the public against
Mckinley. Everybody understands
why they have done this. Mr.. Chandler
IS supporting another candidate. Mr..
Reed. while Mr.. cullom is himself n
candidate Tor the nomination. Yet the
Democrntlc editors have eagerly grasp
ed upon their statements, and are dish
Ing them UP as sweet morsels.
1t Is a matter which Is beginning to
attract the attention OF the country
that Major Mckinley has the united
opposition OF the Democratic free trade
press. and that the combine against the
great champion, Of protection has Its
united support.
This means something. 1t means
that the Democratic press and politicians
fully realize that Mckinley is the popu-
lar choice OF the Republicans Of the
country. the favorite OF the masses of
the plain people, and the strongest man
in the field. The Democratic press does
not want him nominated. This is the
reason why the demand for him is grow
Ing. and why he Is stronger to-day as a
presidential factor than ever before.
Whoever is the nominee OF the st.
Louis convention will receive the united
support OF the Republicans OF the whole
country. but the nomination will be
made without the assistance OF the DEM
ocratIc newspapers. Even the Wheel
ing Register. which is waging such
bitter war against Major Mckinley.
