Upton Team Was Clearly Out
Of the Running During the
Contest of Friday Night at
The Coliseum.
CURTAIN RAISER WAS Bet
TER GAME OF THE TWO.
Kibbeys and High School
Played a Tie in Sensational
Fashion, Muncie to Come
Next Week.

Before the largest crowd that has
attended polo this season, Richmond
defeated Upton Friday night, by a
score of : 10 /. Upton came here
with a record of having won - out
of 10 games, but the team proved to
he a quintet of Youngsters and not in
Richmonds class. The score does not
represent the respective strength OF
the clubs. the Quakors being head and
shoulders above the Upton bunch.
The curtain raiser was the more in
resting game of the evening in
which the kibbeys and High School
played a tie game. The score WAS &
TO 6. On account of il being past the
hour for calling the Zig game the
Two local teams did NOT get to finish
their contest. The high school lads,
showed much stronger than they did

particular star and his work was of

The Rchmond-TiptoH game was
pretty much Richmond all the way
through Richmond took the lead and
then toyed with the visitors until they
threatened to tie the core. Then the
Quakers braced and easily regained i
good margin.
During the latter part of the third
period. Van Etten Of the Richmond
team was put out of the game for
rough playing, he being replaced by
Barker. Barker worked the floor in
pretty style and seems to be as good
ST not a be tier man than Van Etten.
Center Parry Of the Richmond club
who is being much sought after by
splendid game. He Gagged two of the
locals goals and figured in the max.
ing of nearly all the others.
The best work for the visitors was
done by their nervy little half back.
Next Friday. Muncie will play here
and the best game Of the season is eX
pected, as it is always Greek against
Greek when Richmond and Muncie
meet. The Richmond team since the
acquisition of Quisley is much strong

and the winning streak it has been
enjoying will likely continue unless

Phantom Hounds.
Conan Doyle's Hound of the Bas-

to have its origin in the legends of
packs of spectral hounds which are
popular in various parts of England

these apparitions ar known as Ca

Vest" or Heath hounds" in Wales
"Cron Annwn' or "Cwn Wybir" and
in Cornwall the Devils Dandy dogs"
They are supposed to be evil spirits
hunting the souls Of the dead Gener-
ally they are only heard and seem to
be passing swiftly along in the air. as
they usually choose cloudy nights for
the pursuit of their prey. Their yelp-
ing is said to be terrific, resem bling

tends TO show that the origin of these
legends of goblin hounds is to be found
in the terrifying noises made by focks
of wild geese.

KEEP TO THE RIGHT"
MAYOR LEAGUES ADVICE

That the members OF the Police De-
partment use all diligence to keep
trafic on the streets Of Montgomery on
the doubly right side of the street Is
the import Of letter of instructions
directed yesterday by Mayor league
to Chief OF Police w. H. Taylor.
Section 1893 Of the CITY Code pro-
the streets keep to the right. and the
public disregard of the section. the
Mayor thinks occas sion confusion.
Following is a copy of the letter Of
the Mayor:
Dear sir:-Through reason Of a
public disregard of the provision of
Section 1898 of the City Code. occas-
stoned for the most part by lack of
knowledge on the part of most OF our
citizens of said provisions. somewhat
of a confusion has arisen on our
thoroughfares during the busy hours
when the streets are crowded with We
hicles. This Section, as Il will be seen,
provides that all vehicles shall be
driven to the right, and because these
provisions are not followed, the con-
fusion mentioned Is existing on the
streets of Montgomery.
You will kindly direct the attention
of your Department to this Section,
and instruct each member of the same
to use every effort to see that citizens,
when driving in the downtown dis
trict especially during the rush hours,
keep to the right of the street With
occasional reminding by your men, !
am sure the citizens of Montgomery,
who cannot but realize the merit of
this Section, Will gladly adhere to its
provisions.
"The observance of this law Will
tend in no uncertain degree to relieve
tn e. congested condition of our streets
during certain hours.
Yours very truly,
W. M. league. Mayor.
