Augusta Wins Over Gardiner in City

Ing Psais Of Applause.

In a good big elegant old game, Au-
gusta and Gardiner struggled for three
periods, last evening, In City hall, the
home team winning out by q score of
8 to 4. Great was the enthusiasm, and
there was a medley of yells of every
note. The supporters of both sides
were out in force, and no good play on
either team escaped the notice Of the
vigilant audience.
We are absolutely tired of saying
sThe Best Game of the Season." But,
for fact, last evenings game was
the nearest to polo. as it should be, of
all past performances seen on the City

The game was anyones up to the
last minute. The last goal scored was
8 seconds from the lend of time," and
with Augusta only one goal in the lead,
it was awful waiting for anyone with
nerves in his makeup.

and Hackett did some worthy work at
the cage.
1t was no easy game. Both teams
were there to win, and defeat was a
too bitter pill for either to swallow
with any grace.
Doherty for Gardiner played a
wonderful game, and again and again
got in the way of the ball with the
jump of a great flea. Smith did good
work also. as did Houghton, in spots;
those spots being rather few and far
between. Referee Long found two
fouls on him, last evening, the only
ones called on either side.
