A GAME ON FEBRUARY 1 ciAc-fti Tt-anis Waue Uj Town Team--Review of the Season--'Varsities Withdraw from the Association- After a game among the piembers of the All-Ctelveriinit team, which will play Dallas February 22. the season will be over and the young nu-u will put as-ide their suits, nose tjuards. shhi i-u-Uciors and other football paraphernalia until next season.

The ending of nssm-Utiion's season, as announced oxchislvoly in Tlii Xrws yesterday, was of to the Kirtre numbt-r of pouple in this city who are Interested in football. Tt will be rememhertd that when the last game was played the result wus as follows: 'VarsiUos had tied and won a game; Hoyals had lost and tied a game; Rugbys had lost and won a game, and the 'Varsity- Royal tie was to be played over before the awarding of the pitnnant could have been season was done by Post and recognition of his ability was shown by bis made captain of the AlMJahvston The averages of the teams follow: AVer- Teams.

At the New Year's game som misunderstanding arose between the 'Var sities and the association with regard the appropriation of certain funds.

Bot sides were positive that their view of -th matter was correct. The matter wa brought up a a committee whe. it was decided that a subcommittee shoul wait on the 'Varsities and try to explain matters. The 'Varsities, in an assemblage listened to the argument offered by th association, and finally in order -to be am cable decided to accede to the association' demand, but not to play any more thi season. This was a sort of compromise an was accepted by 'the committee on the! part.

This is the reason why the tie not played over. However, there will be one more gam between the AlI-Galveston team on Febru ary I and another on February 22, when th home team has challenged the Dallas eleven. In order to mduce the Steers come "down this way the association hac to offer a guarantee of $250. While up tc this, time no word has been received from Dallas, still it is generally known that tha team will accept, as on a former occasion they challenged 'this city for the day named. Some time this month teams composed employes of The News and Tribune wil contest for gridiron honors.

Another notice -this massacre will appear later in The News. With regard to 'the work of the teams this season, nothing but words of common datloii cam be spoken. They all played gen tlemanly games and some good latent talent was brought to view. The teams contested hard, and it can be said to their credit that all the teams, with the exception of one, practiced hard and faithfully for the games. In regard to the playing of the teams the following is to be drawn; the Royals were the weakest.

This was caused by several things. First, they did not have weight, and second, they did not have experience. Captain Monroe did his best, as did- all the men on the team, but they were clearly outmatched their -adversaries. This team was composed of the following man- Lane 155 pounds, Wootdridge ICO, Steirnr .50, Burns 155, Langbehn 155. Lauve 135 Flughes 150, Monroe 135, Dulltz 150.

The former had experi- nre, the latter had strength. The Rugbys ailed to practice snfljclently, while the Varsities played whenever they had the pport unity.

IJoth teams developed some plendid material, and the All-Gnlvestoii earn, i one or two exceptions, is com- osed entirely of Knshy-'YarElty men, as 111 be seen from report of last night's fleeting given below. The men composing these teams are as Jllows: Rugbys: Heurn 163 pounds, Homer 17.1, Ichlttz ISO, Goree ir.5, Romanet 175, Fulton 0, Stone 163, Alack 175, Rogers 145, Sin- air 140.

At the Thanksgiving and New Year's games nt least 1:100 people were In attendance, while nt the Christmas game, wher weather was as disagreeable as could be, people braved the alarm to witness the contest.

A word must be spoken In praise of Messrs. Hmislcln, Mann and Sealy who officiated at the games. They rendered their decisions perfect firmness and accurate judgment. The mojt brilliant Individual work of The only way in the world to get an aver- ot a team is to divide the- number of itmes into the number of games (See SpaldJnir's Baseball Guide.) the average, a lio game counts as no gtinio at all; so that before to-day's ganxa is iilayed the averages of the teams art- us follows: Itugbya 1000, having played and a K'it me. lioyals 0000, tied a game ana lost a game, tie counting as no jjiune.

"Vaj'riHits have no average, liaviiitj playeti a tie gmrff. It can -easily be seen that a tie game counts as no gajn, because an average is gotten by the number of games won divided into the number of games played. The only difference in getting an average between a tie gi.im.8 and a lost game is that the de must be played over and the con not. Should the 'Varsities win to-day's game their average is undoubtedly 1000--a tie gajnu counting' as no game at all. But they ore.

not entitled to the pennant, be- coiuse a tie game counting for no game a.t all, they rHrve only played one game, wihile the Itugbys have played two, and consequently had twice as many chances to lose, acoording to average making, and thus it would not bo fair to give the pennant to the 'Vairsitles. The only way a decision could be fairly gotten would be for the Royal- Varsity tie to be played over. Should the 'Varsities win on the latter game they should get the pennant. Should they.lose, then all ttans will hn.ve 'an average of 500, and all the series will have to be ulayed over again. Should to-day's sama iresult in .1.

tie, all the ties would have to be played over, -as it would be the same as though the 'Varsities had never nlayed a game, while th-e other two teams have each played one. Tho 'VaU'sltles won the New Year's game and the association, accepting The News' advice, intended having die KoyaJ-'V'airpity tie played over, when the college- boys withdrew, and the pennant lies furled for this season nit least. THE GALVE3TON TEAM. At a meeting of the football committee held last evening it was decided to have, beside the Dallas game, a game on February 1 between the twenty-two men who have been selected by the three captains to comprise the all-Galveston team. Mr.

John R. Post was elected captain of the town team, and it is safe to say a better selection could not have been madie. TJte twenty-two men who will play February and from whom the Galverton team will be chosen are the Messers. Mack O'Brien, Gomez, Elchlitz, Siercovich, Fulton, Lane, Stone, Hughes, Woolci-ridge Sinclair, Post, Hosty. Hume, Romanet, Ward, Kilisor, AIcKee, Iticker, Ruhl, Lauve and Rogers.

A NAVAI, A Russian War Vessel That Holds the 1'alm for Speed. London Engineering. Very few vessels that have yet been built have excited more interest than the Sokol, the latest addition to the Russian fleet. The guaranteed speed of twenty-nine knots was alone sufficient to account for this, it having been two knots in excess anything promised at the time the contract for the vessel was made. It may be said at once that the interest shown by engineers and naval architects In the progress of the vessel has been more than The vessel is 390 feet long by eighteen feet six inches beam.

She is, of course, twiu screw vessel, and has three stage compound engines of the type ordinarily fitted by Messrs. Yarrow in vessels of this class, having cylinders eighteen inches, twenty-six Inches and thirty-nine and a half inches In diameter and eighteen Inches stroke. The boilers are eight in number. They are of the well known Yarrow type, and it mav be stated that boiler arrangements are" similar to those of the Hornet, the vessel built by this firm for the English government, but which was about two and one-fourth knots slower than the Russian vessel. It will be remembered that at the preliminary trial the maximum mean speed of thirty and a quarter knotr was obtained as a second mean of three: rnns, with and against 'the tide.

Since then the official three hours' run had been made in the presence of Prince Oukhtomsky, naval at- tache to the Russian government, and chief of the Russian commission; Captain Behr, who will command tho vessel; Mr. Poretchkin, engineer In chief to the commission, and other naval representatives. The mean speed on the six: runs was 29.777 knots. As the mean revolutions per Are You Wise? Then you'll buy now while the trustet'a sale of the J. W.

They appear to obey mc- hnnlcal laws that apply i unfailing Igor throughout the entire universe and their atory in rhythmic motions i uelinses. Thus it lias been osKihlo to reaJ Alpol's signals, nd Dr. S. V. Chandler of Cambridge has ct'ompHshcd thy task.

The story Is a strange one. The star wo see has fallen in with two nelgh- oring suns that jrlve no light ut one of at times passes in front stops from Algol. This dusky sun miles in diameter. This is a trlile smalk-r than the sun of our aolar tem. Also! Is about 1.000,000 miles across, and 0 Is (ant R.uOU.000 miles from strange companion.

These two great orbs of night und ilny revolving 1 In perpetual embrace must be a strange Bight to those Inhabitants of any other worlds that may bo near enough to discern them.

The coal burned during the three hours was ten tons seven hundred weight, with an average air pressure of inches. Tt will be seen, therefore, that the palm for the swiftest vessel in the world has once more reverted the Poplar yard, and the British navy once more loses the supremacy in speed, which It has held for some time past.

The remarkable cf the Sokol has not been due to a exercise of what may aptly, if not correctly, be termed the brute force of horse power. The maximum power exerted did not reach 4000.
