The scare resulted in favor of David City to the extant of IS to 0, which was dne to the fact that Coloa bus was handicapped, by the absence of two or khree regular players togeth er with the decisions of a David City umpire in zhe last half, who seemed to be groping among the cob webs of the post when a decision was required relative to rules of rhe game, besides being incased in a heavy armour of local prejudice. Bus all is not lost as another game with David City will be plaved at Columbus Saturday, October 8, and the home team brought up to it3 normal strength by the ad dition of the players absent at David City together with the loyal support of the Columbus people ought to start ' the "'Indians" on their loumev to the 'happy hunting ground.
