Edmonds running him a close second. The three halvos-Hale, Martin and Mit chall-played so well, especially in the first half, that it would be invidious to pick out any one for special mention. It is doubtful whether Hongkong bas a safer trio of halves than the Club three the fastest played this season, the Indians -- The game, taken altogether, was perhaps
making up in brawn what they lacked in science and often, by their very vigour, getting the ball through their more scientific opponents' defence. In the first half, the play was very even. The Club scored two goals, Braga obtaining the first and Mackenzie the second. Railton' and Hickling, with Jones-in- gnal, managed to keep the others from scoring, and when the interval was called the Club were leading by two goals to nil..
The following times were taken pester- day, the large majority of the gallops being over the sand course:
