SPORTING NOTES.
The most interesting sporting events to-day perhaps are the Football Shirld tier, especially that between the H.K.F.C. und the Neval! Yard. In this engagement the Club has one of its regular imeks missing and Danby is still compelled to play in the half-back line. 80 little has been seen of the Naval Yard team an yet that it would be safe to prophesy as to the result. The winners have to meet ILM.3, flcean in the second round, and us the Ocean on Thursday beat the Leviathan, who last Saturday knocked the long, the Shield holders, ent of the competition, the prospects are not encounging I shall not expect to soo a civilian trun in the semi-final, eyon though the II.K.
