CREWS AWFUL EXPERIENCE.
the Mast of the Sweeney for More
than 21 Hours.

Philadelphia, November 16.-Af-
ter having been lashed to a mast for
more than "a hours and with hope of
rescue almost abandoned, Captain
Fisher and crew of seven men of the
Brig c. G. Sweeney. were taken from
their perilous position Tuesday after
noon by the steamer Hawaiian from
Honolulu for this port.
The men suffered greatly from ex-
posure to the weather, but are ap-
Darently no worse for their experience.
The, brig left Charleston early last
week for Philadelphia with a cargo OF
lumber. and encountered the southern
hurricane Sunday, off the Virginia
coast. The brig withstood the ter
rife wind and sea for a short time
only and then became waterloeged.
The deck load and houses were swept
away and the vessel finally broke in
two. The crew then climbed the
main mast, and lashed themselves in
the main sail to keep from being
washed away. They remained in the
position until Monday afternoon by
which time the sea had moderated
enough to permit them to return 20
the deck of the half sunken hulk.
No vessel was sighted until Tues
iay morning. when the Hawaiian re-
sponded to their distress signals and
rescued all hands. The brig wa<

Result OF FOOTBALL GAME
PLAYED YESTERDAY.
The Contest Was at Chapel Hill and
Was One Of the Most Stubbornly
Fought Ever Played In the State.
Roth Scores Were Made I'm the First
Half, and Though Carolina Was
Making Rapidly for the Goal, the
Referees Whistle Ended the Game
the Score q Tie.
Especial to The Messenger)

Chapel Hill, n. c., November 16.-The
game Of football this afternoon between
the University of North Carolina and
the Agricultural and Mechanical college
resulted in a score of six to six. The
gene was a beautiful exhibition, but
was marred by fumbling By both teams.
North Carolina kicked off to AgricuI-
tural and Mechanical, and on the form
ers tumble gained the ball. BY hard
iIpe plunging, the ball was Carried over
the line for a touchdown. Time Of
touchdown two minutes. Barry kicked
an easy goal, making the score six to
nothing in favor of Carolina. North
Carolina kicked to Agricultural and
Mechanical. The ball was returned
five yards. Both sides have the ball in
their possession for the remainder OF
the half, but Agricultural and Mechan>
ical, in the last few minutes carried
the ball over for a touchdown. A dis
astrous tumble by the locals virtually
score. Lukes kicked goal, score, end OF
first half Carolina 6 Agricultural and
Mechanical g.
The play in the second half was of
the most spectacular sort. The ball
changed hands frequently, but neither
side was able to gain any material
distance. In the last four minutes of
Play however, Carolina secured the
ball on her own Is yard line and by
terrific line plunges by Robertson and
and a beautiful 45 yard run by Win
bornt advanced the ball to A. and Ms
q yard line.
A touchdown would have been made
il the half had lasted one minute lon>
ger, but the blowing Of the referee's
whistle put an end to the hope of a
touchdown.
The A. and NJ. team played
a strong game and showed the COED
training they have had. Carolina was
greatly handicapped by the loss OF
Carpenter, who was not allowed to play
owing to some technicality by whicn
lie was disqualified His absence from
the game greatly crippled the team
This game will make Carolina work the
harder between now and Thanksgiving
and she will play Virginia the hardest
game of the season. North Carolina
underra ted the strength of Agricultural
end Mechanical and to this may be at
tributed the score. Carolina played
brilliant ball in the second half, and il
was only hard luck that the game re.
suited in the way it did. Bear, Rober.
son and Newton starred for Carolina
and Alternately and wilson played q
f.ne game for A. and NJ
