FIELD OF SPORTS.
FOOTBALL AT WATERvILLE

Yarmouth Athletic Clubs Game with
Colby.
The game of football at Waterville On
Wednesday between Colby and the Var.
mouth Athletic club, was a victory for
Colby, 90 to 0.
The first half was on hut a short time
before it was proved that Yarmouth was
outciassed Not only did Colby play
snap2ier ball, but more than that, Var
mouths lima was no match for the sturdy
Colby backs. The line men continually
opened up holes big enough TO drive a
team through, and through these holes
the backs with splendid interference
pushed ths ball along for and som g.
times l5-yard gains.
Not once during the,whole game was
Yarmouth able to hold Colby for downs,
and the nearest the ball ever came to
CoIby's goal was when the ball was
punted down the field. At all times 1t
was in Yarmouth's territory.
Colby fumbled at times, but lucky
turns of fortune gave the ball back to
Colby. During the first half Colby
scored 81 points and In the second half
forced Yarmouth back over her own
Iins for safety,

The house succeeded in compelling
he senate to agree to the number of
new warships authorized by the orig
inal house naval bill, but the limita-
ton of the cost of armor to $500 ton,
in the bill as finally agreed to, makes
it impossible to make any contract
for constructing the battle ships pro-
vided for, without further legislation,
because the bill provides that no
contracts shall be given for the con-
struction of the ships until contracts
for the armor have been made, and
no contracts for armor can be
made at that price. But Secretary
Long says he can and will go right
ahead with the cruisers provided for,
as the armor they require does not
come under the prohibitory clause of
the bill.

MORRISSEY Is NO FIGHTER
ROASTED IRISH CHAMPION PUT OUT
QUICK ORDER.
1t Takes Peter Maher Only a Moment to
Vanquish His Fellow Countryman,
Two Blows Did the Trick.

New York, June 20.-Peter Maher, the
Irish heavyweight pugilist, scored
quick victory over his fellow country
man, Mike Morrissey, Of Tipperary, be-
fore the Lenox Athletic club tonight.
Morrissey had been heralded as an in
vincible Irish champion. Maher sized
his man up quickly and went for him.
There was apparently no fight in the
new conner.
A light punch on the breast and a
right cross to the jaw were the only
blows struck, and these We're delivered
by Maher. The blow that Maher land
ed on the jaw was insufficient to knock
out any man. Maher weighed TIA
pounds and looked well. Morrissey had
a retinue of handlers when he reached
the Tingside and said he weighed 1872
pounds. The moment the men shaped,
1t was clearly evident that Morrissey
was afraid and that Maher had the
easiest task ever given him. Both fid-
died for a few moments and then
Maher went right for his man with
light left lead, which landed lightly on
the chest. and sent his right over to
the jaw. Morrssey fell in a neutral
corner and lay there resting on his
right elbow, while Maher strutted
about the ring until the referee counted
off 10 seconds Maher then walked to
his corner and the master of ceremonies
announced that Maher had won and
that the time of the bout was IS sec
