For the opening event at the New Jer-
sey Athletic Clubs carnival on Labor
Day the committee have selected the True
Blues. of Paterson, and the ~Centrevilles,
of Bayonne, to meet in an Association
foot ball match, and a rare treat is
promised patrons of the dribbling code.
The True Blues with the possible excep-
ton of the MANI team of Philadelphia,
are considered the most skilful and
scientific playerA in the country. They
played all the frst-class clubs in the
East last season and met with but five
reverses in twenty-eight games. The
Centrevilles have. sustained a local repu-
tation second to acne, both for brilliant
work in the field and their strict
adherence to the rules of the game. Their
supporters are %sanguine of the success of
their pets over the doughty Paterson
players, and Manager Boyd reports that
his men are rounding into shape rapidly.
The game will be called at Has A. M.
sharp, and Oliver S. Jones'. of the New
Jersey A. c.. will be the referee. A game
of Gaelic foot ball will follow at l o'clock.
This will be between the champion Will
lam M. Barry Association of this city,
and the John Mitchells of Brooklyn. This
will be one of the best contested events
of the day and should bring a large
crowd of admirers of the Irish game to
BayOnne. The members of the Barry
team rave begun practice. They have
gen Point, but are none the less con-

BIOYOLIsTs COLLIDE.
No One Hurt and the Participants
Call Each Olsatr Names.

What came nearly being a very seri-
Gus accident occurred last evening on
the Boulevard, at Linden venue, where
two bicycle riders smashed together.
Linden avenue was recently macadam-
lied, and it being the only macadam
road in Greenville which leads to the
Boulevard, it is used by a large number
of cyclists. About eight o'clock last
night George Hawkins, who lives in Ho-
boken, was coming along the Boulevard
from the Point. When he reached Lin
den avenue another rider, coming down
Linden avenue, crashed into him. Hawk
ms wheel was uninjured, and he was
thrown to the ground. escaping with a
few scratches. The other rider, whose
name could not be learned. had the tires
of his front wheel smashed. 1t was
thought for a time that there would be
a fight between the men, each charging
the other with being careless. Nothing
serious, however, came of the wordy war.
