All the London newspapers will, Fri
day, publish comments on the CORE
spondence contained in the Blue book
on Turkey. The Liberal organs join
with the Conservative papers in paying
tributes to Lord Salisbury for his great
diplomatic triumph in inducing the
powers to assume strong attitude on
the Turkish question. Even those
papers which have heretofore harped
on Great Britian's alleged futile efforts
to bring about a concert of the Powers
regarding Turkey, now join in chorus
of praise Of the British prime minister's
.niastcrly diplomacy.

ieited 10 Augusta.


In the second period of the Augusta
Gardiner polo game, Friday evening,
in City hall, with the score Augusta, 3;
Gardiner, 0-and fouls to the discredit
Of the latter team-Referee O'Melia
had occasion to fine Houghton 81 for
driving the ball at him, and Nc
Gowan IS additional for calling him a
foul name. Houghton was also ordered
from the floor, whereupon the Gardiner
team was withdrawn from the floor by
the manager. and Referee O'Melia an
nounced the game Augustus by forfeit
ture, by score of 3 too.
Subsequent to the event Houghton
had had fouls called on him; Nc
Gowan, /; and Doherty, 1 in the period
and two-thirds which had been played.
During this time only one had been
called on Augusta-on Mccain, during
a scrimmage when Houghton was also
given one.
Referee O'Melia says regarding the
matter: Il saw that there was a plain
attempt to hit me. Houghton was the
first offender, hitting the ball deliber-
ately at me as 1 stood few seconds
after I blew the whistle on the rush
after the third goal, stepping back as
usual. The second attempt Immediately
followed,b MCGOWAN, and fined them
accordingly, and MCGOWAN for calling
me vile name"
The three Gardiner players on whom
the fouls were called played a rough
game, with frequent attempts at trip
ping which has no license, and which
was promptly called by Mr.. O'Melia.
The game previous to the withdrawal
of the GARDENERS, was an exciting one
The Augustus played the best game
they have yet put up here, with good
passing and general team work that
did one good to see. Hackett made some
brilliant stops. as usual and was right
in his element. Broadbent made a

up his usual strong game, and Mccain
played a hard aggressive game, Lee, as
usual did great work.
The Gardiner team played a good
passing game, with some sharp work
by MCGOWAN, who carried the ball along
well number of times. eastman made
some good stops, and got lots of ap-
plause for his work. The drives of the
visitors We're not as accurate as usual
and they were unable to get a single
ball by Hackett in the nearly two
periods of play.
The game, this evening, with Lewis
ton, will commence at 8 o'clock, thus
enabling many who do not close up
their business until that hour to attend
the game. If the Augusta team plays
evening. it can be depended up6n to
give the visitors a hustle.
Manager Smart has secured new
half back player, Harry Barlow of
Valley City. He has an excellent
record, and can play a strong game.
