THE INDIANS WON.
They Easily Defeated the Honesdale
Eleven Saturday.

The Indian Football team of this
city added another scalp to its belt
Saturday, when 1t defeated the Homes
dale eleven. The game was exceeding
ly interesting throughout the first half,
but the second half was rather slow.
The weather was much too warm for
the good fast playing for which the
Indians are noted.
The Honesdale team was slightly
heavier than their opponents but were
not as scientific. During the first half
the game the Indians scored two
touchdowns through the excellent line
backing of Gilhool, Walsh and Frank
Murrin. The onslaughts of these three
men on the Honesdale line was some
thing irresistible. Murrin kicked both
goals. making the score at the end of
the first hale II to in Carbondales
favor.
The second part of the game was
mostly line-bunking by Honesdale's
back, their opponents adopting the
aggressive throughout. Neither side
scored, although Swift Menner and
fsegan did some excellent work on the
offensive. The game ended with the
score ~ to 0. A large number of Car
bondalians witnessed the game. Eu-
gene Schroeder, of Scranton, full back
of the st. Thomas eleven of that city,
acted as referee.
