Then the oval fell to young Garda-
nieF, and the speed he put into those
two a abbreviated limbs of "hiSn," dis
tancing the man on left end and going
down the field like a comet, the tackles
missing him by a couple OF feet. just
set the crowd wild. He got clear of
the whole Butte fraternity and made
the first touchdown ten minutes after
the ball was put into play. Groesbeck's
foot or his eye failed him, and the oval
did not set within the posts on his
kick.

eight yards, and then it was up to
faithful Alb Howell to do his famous
hoochie-coOchie through the center,
twisting himself clear of everybody and
going behind Captain Smith for the
second touchdown. the farmer render
ing helpless Brown OF Butte, who
seemed TO be in the way. Howell laid
the ball behind the goal after run of
fifty yards, seventeen minutes in all
having been consumed. Groesbeck
again missed goal.
Visitors Were Watchful.
The locals, in the succeeding minutes
of the first half, tried the famous
turtle-back formation and Smiths
hurdle, but the visitors were watchful
and succeeded pretty well in heading
of their opponents scientific gyratiOns.
They caught Smith while he was still
up in the air, and il was a case Of push
and shove. neither side being able to
haul him down. After a brief second
of suspense, the referee called down.
The Criss-cross, Gardanier to GrOes-
beck. which has always been a winner
for the red and black, netted less than
five yards.
Farmer Smith took the oval and
started around left end for Bingham
Junction, covering twenty-five yards
before being brought to a stern real
izatiOn that he was out of bounds.
Smiths next try found Early crawling
all over him in the captains tracks,
and several times in succession the boy
with the real football hair worried the
life out of lions backs, the half end
ing with the ball on Butte's thirty-yard
line, after Early had lowered Alb How

In the second half Johns kicked off
and the locals brought the bail back

Same Old Story.
It remained for Cfardanier to brea K
the mOnOtOny. He graSped the pig
skin like a young Indian going after
a venison steak. and only dust could
be seen on his trail for thirty-five
yards. Groesbeck and Smith increased
the lead by eight yards each, and Gar
danier again got the ball. CorreJte.

~ NE LORD DURHAM, who
may cut quite a figure
among the aristocracy of
81 England. but who, in the
language of the sporting fra
ternity, had better get a reputation in
this country, has created quite stir
by his accusations against American
Jockeys that they are guilty of foul
riding. He is also backed up in the
statement by Mrs. Laugtry, along
with numerous lords, earls and dukes.
The trouble seems to have originated
over the fact that the long list Of Amer
lean Jockeys who have invaded the
other side this summer are winning
more than their share of turf events
and a movement seems 10 be on foot
TO stop their success by drumming up
some. excuse TO bar them from the Eng
Jish tracks. In ali justice 10 the Eng
lish sporting public it can be said that
Durham is not upheld by a majority
OF the race going people and if the mat
GER is sifted down it may develop that
his lordship has been playing the wrong
tip.

weeks in cycle racing ever known in
