It is hinted^that Mike O Mara was hired not to play.^Tbe feature of the game was Kibble's^matchless base running. The outsiders^were very boisterous and meddlesome^and should have been suppressed by tbe^police. KILLEDBY A TRAIN, RobertCrawford Una I^own and Killed WhileDiuuk.^Special te the Standard.
