FOOTBALL ENDS IN DISPUTE.
Smyrna Win From Harrington, Score 6 to 5,
But Visiting Team Left Game Unfinished
Because Of Referees Decision.

The second and most exciting game
of football played here this season,
was that between the elevens of Smyrna
aud Harrington last Thursday after
noon. The teams were very evenly
matched, with an equal determine
ton on the part of both to win, and a
good game was the result
The ball was in the center of the
field until near the close of the first
half and Harrington by good end runs
worked the ball down near Smyrna,s
goal, where Capt Wright, by an excel
lent play broke through the line for a
touchdown. Smyrna braced up in the
second half and kept Harrington on
the defense. By the splendid line
bucking of Weldon the ball was worked
down within one yard of Harrington's
goal when a dispute arose. In the
next play Harrington player jumped
in and grabbed the ball before it was
In play. Referee Taylor refused to
give the ball to Harrington claiming an
"Otfside" play. The Harrington boys
refused to finished the game and left the
field. Referee Taylor allowed the
Smyrna team to make a touchdown
from which a goal was kicked making
score 6 to in Smyrna's favor. The
home team complained greatly of the
"dirty" PLAYING of Rosa.

ELECTION DAY IN SMYRNA.
A Lively One Throughout, Especially When
Returns Began to Come In.


Yesterday was a day of splendid
weather for the Presidential election
a condition that prevailed throughout
the nation-and the night with it's full
orbed moon and bracing atmosphere,
was equal to the day. There was con-
sequently large number on the street
to hear the returns. The Democrats
had their headquarters in the basement
at the Odd Fellows Hall and the Re-
publicans in the Opera House to hear
the telegraphic returns. The display
of advertisements, pictures and latest
returns on canvass stretched across
the street in front of the Transports
ton Office, the thoughtfulness of Mr..
A. L. Jardlne, was feature that all
local business men as well as the
masses in general received with
hearty applause. The returns came
slow, but the Democrats saw in the
early part of the evening that Bryan
was defeated, end by late bed time the
most of them had retired to their
homes. There were no difficulties
whatever, but drunkenness and profan-
lty among the younger element pre-
vailed to a larger extent than usual.
