He then ge all the money he can together, say £2000, | and puts all of it, except £5, where no | one can find it. With the £5 he goes to | a Judge of the court and tells him he wants to become pakarapu. The Judgé then calls all the lawyers together, like- wise all the men to whom the pakeha | owes money, and he says: ‘This man is | akarapu, but he wishes to give you ali| e has got, and so he asked me to divide | this £5 among you all.’ The Judge ther upon gives the lawyers £4, and the re- maining £1 to the other men.

Home Team and the Woodland Seniors Tie on Six Points Each. MARYSVILLE, Dec. 26.—The game of football played here to-day between the Senior team of Woodland and the Marys- ville Athletic Club’s eleven resulted in a tie, the score being 6 to 6. The visitors made their points in the first half. The second h§if was hotly contested. Ray Wright, léft end for Woodland, was hurt on the stomach and head, requiring the services of a physiclan. ~Hudson, for Marysville, suffered a scalp wound and Learmont of the same team had to retire on account of injuries to his back. The game was witnessed by 1000 people, quite a number having come from Woodland. e e “Black Griffo” Defeated. TRENTON, N. J., Dec. 2.—"Black Griffo” was defeated this afternoon at the Trenton Athletic Club in the four- teenth round by “Jack” Waldron. The men fought at catch weights. The early part of the contest was very sclentific, and Waldron showed the most skill. In the ninth round Griffo began to force the fighting, and apparently tired himself out. Waldron had Griffo at his mercy in the thirteenth and fourteenth rounds, and unched him at will. At the end of the ourteenth round Griffo staggered to his corner, and at the call of time for the fifteenth round he failed to respond. The decision was given to Waldron. About 1500 persons witnessed the contest. Poultry and Bench Show.

Members and friends of the London Manx Society, which, as its name indicates, is composed of residents in London of Manx birth or descent— dined together at the Guidhall Tavern on Saturday evening under the presidency of Mr. 8. 8. Stevenson Moore, barrister-at law, himself a member of the Manx fam- ily of Lhergy-dhoo. The night was that of Halloween, a great Manx festival, used to a great extent and still In a great measure prevail. It was sald in the course of the evening that the Isle of Man had in its time borne over a dozen names, of which six or seven were given to it by the Greeks, and that the people of the isi. and, in proportion to their numbers, were, next to the inhabitants of Newfoundland, the greatest seafaring people in the world. Of the Manx language it was said it was the best of all tongues for “coorting” in, there were in it no fewer than ninety- seven ways of saying ‘‘my dear.” The musical programme, of course, comprised the national air of *‘Mylecharaine” and the “Evening Song” of the Manx fisher- men.—London Telegraph. : e Lurline Salt Water Baths, Bush and Larkin sts.

PORTLAND, Or., Dec. 26.—Mult- nomah put up her best game of foot- ball to-day and scored 0 to the Univer- sity of California’s 27. This was rather more than the majority of the §000 peo- ple who crowded Multnomah field came to see, but they saw the best football ever played in Portland, so they got their money’s worth, The Oregonians played under their own melancholy sky, and in their own soggy, sticky mud. The former dropped an occasional tear of sym- pathy on their brawny backs, and the latter followed them about the field | and clung in confidence to their gar- ments. But such touching marks of interest availed them nothing. They were playing away out of their class, and at no stage of the game did they stand a chance to score. A battalion of California volunteers— | eympathizers, of course, with the vis- {ting team—came from Vancouver Bar- to ‘“root” and remained to scream. Multnomah's partisans were in good voice, but their opportunities were limited, and they were not much heard from. The crowd covered every available point of vantage inside the field, packing the grandstand, standing ing like flles on the east slope of the field. Hundreds collected on the high ground outside the fleld to enjoy the sport as best they could without the inconvenience of paying for it. The uniforms of the nation’s gallagt defenders on the side lines and the rib- bons of red and white and blue and gold that fluttered from the feminine devotees of the game, made the field the gayest picture to be seen in all Portland.
