A most exciting game of football was
witnessed yesterday at the Johnston av-
enue grounds, between the Jersey City
Field Club and the st. Alphonsus Club OF
New York City. The teams were very
evenly matched, and the result Of the
game was no score. There was another
result, however, that will keep the mem-
Dry Of the game fresh for some time, and
that feature was the general row which
closed the call of time by the referee. The
teams were most evenly matched, and
neither side had any decided advantage
at any stage of the contest. The elewens
swayed back and forth and succeeded IN
keeping the ball pretty we'll in the centre
of the field. Both teams had their root
ers'' present in large number and the
closeness of the game got the two factions
on the side lines greatly excited with the
result that clashes were narrowly pre-
vented by the police several times.
Toward the close, however. the New
Workers succeeded in making a number of
gains that promised nc good for the local
