INT ERPROVINCIAL FOOTBALL MATCH.

Auckland Defeated by Taraiuiki

The hitherto invincible Colours of tho Auckland Rugby footballers were lowered in the match by a representative fifteen from Taranaki, which took place at the Associa tion Ground, Epsom, yesterday. The vrenther was most unpropitious, but de spite the unpleasantness, there Wore fully 2,500 spectators on the ground at 3 o'clock, the hour Appointed for the commencement of the match. Mr Thomas Henderson acted as referee, Messrs Crowe and jYlajor as umpires, wliilo the opposing team were captained by Arneil (Auckland), and Hempton (Taranaki). We have not space at our disposal to give a descriptive report of the match, and must content ourselves with a few general re marks. The Auckland team, though a fair one, was perhaps the weasest team we have ever put into the field to uphold our prestige in an interprovincial match. This was partly duo to mistaken notions of tho Selection Committee in the matter of form, and also, perhaps,that; a team of very moderate ability could successfully cope with the visitors from the country of "butter and fungus." The result of the match was a complete sur prise. Coming Up here unostentatiously, with their prowess quite unheralded, when the Taranaki men stopped oii the ground yesterday, doubtless most of the spactators felfc, as we did, that Auckland's laurels ■wore not in the slightest dogied in danger. A few momenta of the play sufficed to show that'the men nvm Taruuaki could play football, and play it better than our cham pions too. Early in the first spell—tho match was played in two spells of 45 minutes each—Rodgers passed to the Tara naki Captain Hempton, who rushed on and got a try close to the goal. Tho kick at goal proved unsuccessful, but the fact that tliey_had a score of two points to Auckland's nothing, greatly encouraged tho visitors, who played with dash and, combination, and during the remainder of the first* spell they frequently had the ball in dangerous proximity to Auckland's goal line. In tho second spell the superior condition of the Auckland team began to tell, and the match assumed a more even aspect, for more than once the Taranaki goal was menaced; indeed, Marshall, the North Shore player, got over the line, but the try was disallowed, on the grounds that the ball had been knocked on by Lecky. The match terminated without further score on either side, Taranaki thus being victors by two points to nil. The utmost friendli ness existed between ,the players during the match, though unfortunately on one occasion when Taranaki forced down, some illinannered spectators hooted. The visit ing, team were'entertained at dinner at the Imperial Hotel in the evening, Mr E. Mitchelson, M.H.R., presiding.

POSTPONEMENT OF ONE HUNGA RACES.

The Jubilee Meeting of. the Onehuno-a Racing Club announced for yesterduy did not take place. Over a thousand must have journeyed to the Te Papa station ' with the intention of witness ing the races, but they were.doomed to dis appointment. It was urged that the in clement weather during the morn ing was the cause of the post ponement, but on the other hand it is said that the Club had not received a permit to work the to talisatbr from the Colonial Secretary. The meeting'is»announced to take place on Saturday next.

MAN DROWNED.

Late last night a man, whose name is Forgus Chary, was drowned off the outer tee pi the Queen-street Wharf. Mr J. Williamson, quartermaster of the steamer Mararoa, saw him sitting on the edge of the quay, and warned him, as did other per sons, •of his danger. Shortly after wards he was seen attempting to rise when he staggered and fell into the tide. On the recovery of the body, half an hour later, a big wound was found upon his head behind the ear. The deceased was a man about thirty years of age, and stood about 5 feet 7 inches high having, a sandy beai-d cropped, and is sup posed to have been a blacksmith. His right hand was cut, and in a sling. Tho dress consists of a blue serge.; coat and trousers and check flax shirt, and blucher boots. ; In the pockets_ of the coat were found a railway excursion'ticket from Te Avyamutu (return), .which points .to his having arrived from that place for the Jubilee week. An inquest is being held at Gleesor.'s Hotel as we go to press.

FOOTBALL MATCHES.

North Shore v. Thames

This game was played at the North Shore yesterday and resulted in the Thames being defeated by 22 points to nil. The visitors were decidedly overmatched, and had no show in the game from the first, but they played a plucky game, and took their beat ing With a good grace. In the evening the Shore boys entertained the visitors at dinner at Robson's* and the two teams spent the evening in a very pleasant manner. Victoria V. Albert. This match was played on Monday afternoon in Dilworth's paddock by teams eclected from the local clubs of the Auckland Football Association in honour of Hef Majesty's Jubilee. The Auckland and Taranaki Rugrby teams were present by invitation, and wero loudly cheered on arriving. The match was well contested, and ended in a tie, each side securing a goal. That for the Victoria was kicked by AJassqy, and that for the Albert by Owen. For the Albert, Owen Hill and F. Rotherh.ini tfoit tho most prominent among tho forwards, and the brothers Chamberlain, McMurtio and Shannon played well among tho backs.
