 and over the ground, a delay. being thus occasioned. It was not of long duration, and it was Kildare's throw in. However, the ball was returned to touch at the same spot, and the next throw in was caught by a Kerry player, but he held on too long, and the referee sounded the ball into play again. Immediately following this Kerry was awarded a free, and Fitz- gerald, from a favorable position made a rather poor attempt to score, the ball going wide behind. The kick out brought no relief to the Leinster representatives, who had their hands full now in keeping out their oppon- ents The defense was very strong, indeed, and the goal keeper, with a fine kick, relieved the pressure to touch near the goal line. Kerry, from the throw in, strongly attacked again, but once more the ball went wide. Kerry returned the kiek-out, and all most immediately what was thought to be a point was scored. But the whistle had just gone, so that the hopes of Kerry supporters were not realized. The ball was brought back and a free awarded to Kildare, who, by some combined play amongs their forwards, took the game to center, where O'Neill got possession, and with magnificent kick J. T. Fitzgerald landed point amidst an enthusiastic uproar on the part of all Kerrymen. From the kick-out the Leinster men combined well, and in a grand rush passed the half way, but foul occur ring, Kerry got free, but gained very little ground, as Kildare returned the ball to touch near the halfway In trying to stop the progress of the play O'Neill came into contact with a Kill dareman and sustained a fracture and disl0cation at one elbow joint, which necessitated his permanent removal from the field. He was attended by Dr William O'Sulliyan. Play was re- sumed, and Kerry were again on the aggressive. They worked well in the right direction, and Buckley, seizing a favorable opportunity, landed a second minor. Play was still in Kildare ter ritory for some moments after the kiek-out, until a Leinstef forward got the ball at his toes and dribbled on to- wards the center. Here he was fouled by Kerryman, and free granted to his side. The kick was an excellent one, and play was within yards of the Kerry posts, but the defense was very stubborn, and the ball was sent gradu- ally back to the Leinster goal. Matters looked again desperate for Kildare, but they manfully resisted all attack, and play was sent back again to the Mum ster posts, where it was of the most exciting nature possible. A free was given Rafferty on the quarter line, but he kicked wide. He again took free after kick-out, but the ball fell short and some desperate tussles were en- gagged in. Kildare now had it all their own way practically; they were play ing in dashing style, and when they brought matters within yards of the Kerry posts they were ably assisted by an opposing player who, in endeavoring to drive the ball of with his hand, actually sent it in for an initial minor. Excitement now ran high, and the kick out was again favorable to Kildare; they played in grand fashion, and Ken nedy sent in second score for his side. The tables were then turned on them; they had succeeded in coming on level terms with their opponents, but they somewhat Jagged, and the Southerns ran them down the field. Play was on the Kildare quarter when foul was committed. and the free was glgepf taD D. Fitzgerald for, Kerry, Hesstbfed 'aht ekceliehf point from q difficult angle. One minute and half was all to elapse now, and the half time whistle sounded the resnlt at that moment as follows:

 Kildare immediately. by some fine kicking, attacked, and capital shot for goal was cleverly frustrated by Dillon. The Kerry forwards then got possession, and transferred play to near midfield, where their opponents were awarded a free, and matters looked dangerous for the Southerners, who rallied splendidly and cleared again for midfield. But Kildare. who were playing with greater combination, returned once more to the attack. The defense was too good for them, and the Kerry forwards coming away in a rush, J. 0'Gorman got pos session and he wound up single handed dribble of nearly fifty yards with splendid shot between the posts, scoring point. This seemed to put great heart into his team. who now for some minutes kept up fierce att tack opposite their opponents posts, which ended, after several attempts, In W.
