He had Just returned from his annual

On a soft and muddy field the mem
bers of the Franklin A. A. and the
Crescents, Of Orange, engaged in a
scoreless tie game at ark A. A. Oval
yesterday morning. Both teams put
up an excellent game, despite the con-
dition of the field. Although the Frank
Inns were outweighed, they put up a
safe all the way.
A twenty-hve-yard run by Paul, the
crack fpllback of the Valley A. A., won
for that team against the Elmwood
A. c. at Athletic Park yesterday after
noon. The game was a most exciting
affair. The ~lateness in starting made
1t possible for both to continue play
in darkness.
