VAUDEVILLE.
COLBY DEFEATS U. OF M.
Wins Hot Basket Ball Game by Score
Of is to 3.

Those who attended the Colby-U. of NJ
basket ball game certainly got their mon
eys worth if it was excitement they Were
after. Colby won by just one goal and it
looked along. towards the last of the
game as if she was going to be robbed of
victory gained in the first half of the
game.
Colby started in with snap and vigor
that seemed to tie the hands of the Wis
itors. Everywhere the bali went there
was Colby man with it whether it was
at one end of the floor or the other. But
it was in the neighborhood of the visit
ors' goal most of the time during the
first Is minutes. Colby played a good
game and did some very fine passing.
The Colby men were stationed in the
gallery and cheered every good play with
the Old-fa shioned football yells The
visitors were by no means without
friends and they got their share of the
cheering. although the noise was nat
urally not so great.
When time was called for the first half
the score stood 10 to in Colby's favor.
1t looked for a while as if the visitors
were going to complete the first half
without a smell, but they got a couple
along towards the last.
The tables turned in the second half.
Someone had evidently been prodding the
visitors some and they started in with
much more vim and snap than they had
showed in the first half Colby on the
other hand seemed to be tired or some
thing and lost much of the snap she
showed in the first half. The visitors

THE ICE RACE.
Maud N. and Brenda Win Out Before
Great Crowd.

A big crowd gathered at the ice track
on the river and on the shores. Mon
day afternoon, to see the third and
probably last of the series of races.
Soon after o'clock the starter sent
the horses down to make ready for the
first heat for PAGERS. Although there
were but five horses in this class they
were among the fastest houses in three
cities. and the one that could stay with
this speedy bunch must need be a good
one. Besides being fast ones they were
very evenly matched and the winner
could not be picked out until the last
heat was over.
Granite Wilkes took the first heat.
which was close. Maud NJ captured
the second, third and fifth. the fourth
going to William P. Each heat was
exciting, the. first being. perhaps, the
hest seen here this year.
In the trotting class only three
horses were entered and it was at first
thought that the race would go to
Horace without any opposition. but
to the surprise of all. Brenda, owned
by Walter Webb, Augusta, won the
race, partly because Horace led them
under the wire once while in a break.

steadily gained on her, while the crowd
went Wiid with excitement. constant
uln OF cheering and yelling was main
lance lance during the last part Of the game,
Inc players caught the spirit OF their
supporters and went at their work IN
hurricane style. 1t was the hottest bas-
ket ball ever seen in the city and al
times was pretty rough. There were foot
ball players on both sides and in the heat
OF the play they would forget themselves
ana use some football tactics. This
pleased the crowd although it was not
strictly according to Hoyle.
A goal from foul helped Colby out
good deal when the visitors were but one
goal behind her. as two goals were then
necessary to beat her. The pace was
faSt and furious when time was called
with Colby just one goal ahead. a goal
from foul having evened things up for
Maine. The crowd-the gymnasium was
full! to its capacity-yelling so that the
whistle announcing the end of the game
could not be heard. 1t was the kind of =
finish to stir the blood and the crowd
went away well satisfied with the game
Some very pretty plays were made by
both sides. Colby outplayed her oppon-
nets all right in the first half but was
more evenly matched in the second 1t

1t started very quickly, but before it
turned the bend short whistle was
given and 1t came to a standstill with
a jerk. Everybody about the station
ran down, thinking some one had been
struck by the train, but were greatly
relieved to find that it was only load

After little coaxing and with little
help the horse moved the load and the

continues to be very brisk. Apples are
now bringing as good a price as they
have for many years, from "a to $3.50
being paid for barrel for them in the
cellars. There are very few of the
Baldwins and Greetings left, but
many Russets are found. 1t was
thought that the apples would rot
more. this winter, than usual on ac-
count of the great amount of water
that fell during the summer and fall,
but this. fortunately, did not prove the
case. The farmer that has held on to
his apples until this time, is far better
oft than those who sold them early in
the season.
