game. Ho it proved. The1 Victorias retained their title of amateur hockey hamplon of the world by beating the Grand Mere uevea by the decisive score uf four to one. That score made the total on the round ten to' five, thus demonstrating the superiority of the. Vies beyond the possibility of a doubt.

The great crowd was tremendously enthusiastic whea the bell i a us for full time, and all the Vies were chaired off the ice on the shoulders of their supporters. The Vies simply played the Grand Here team off their The visitors fought gamely, their captain, Ritchie, especially bo, but they were beaten In. the first five minutes of the game, and what is. more, knew it. their attack at times savored of the desperate, but they could not penetrate the Vies' great defence.

The back-checking of the Vies" forwards was so strong that few of the easterners' rushes after the first ten minutes went as far as the- actual defence, and still fewer went pas them. With McCulIoch in. Koal playing a Merlins game, tho defence was all but impenetrable. The one goaf the challengers did secure was a long shot, almost from centre ice. which Kelly put by McCulIoch in the last minute of play.

Vies Three Up The half-time' score as three to nil for the Vies, and the teams were dual, so far as was concerned in the second half. the play was all to the Victorias, and only Oautiiier's great work in goal and Richie's defensive, play, held the score down. The Grand Mere team' made a tactical mistake by playing on the defensive in the second 'half, when they had everything to gain and nothing to by sending their entire team up to the Vies' goal. The crowd was the largest ever assembled at a sporting event in Kcgina. Those in the rink numbering slightly over l.r.OO while outside of tho rink and in front of the newspaper offices, about 4.000 more who were unable to secure admittance were gathered.

The excitement was intense throughout the game, as the crowd was not satisfied to see the Vies retain their possession of tho Allan cup, but wanted to see the eastern challengers decisively beaten, so that there should he no doubt as to which was the better team.

Moliski again played a wonderful game. The little man had both Kelly and Hoffman checked to a standstill, and was boring into the husky defence of the challengers regardless.

Cushing, Secretary, Returns and Gives Reasons for Change A Surprise The result of the game was something of a surprise. No one expected to see the Vies beaten, but Regina generally believed the score would be closer.

On the showing Monday night, the Vies had a slight margin of superiority, particularly in staying powers and in team speed. On the showing last night, the Vies are the better team in every department of the game. Their team play was decidedly better; on speed they were overwhelmingly superior, the only member of the GrHnd Mere seven to show up at all in this particular beiir.f Ritchie; in staying powers stick work and checking ability also they had a good margin. The game started promptly on time, but half an hour before the rink was filled to capacity. As high as $16 for wo seats was paid, which is fair proof uf the enthusiasm of those packed inside the small structure.

The ice was considerably better than in tho previous game, although toward the end of each half it became covered with a sticky slush which slackened tho speed of the players and made the puck difficult to carry. I MEDICINE HAT. March IS. Special Correspondence to The Herald. MACLEOD.

Nicholas rink, when it defeated the Vancouver six by 10 to 1 tonight. The contest gave Quebec a grand total of 6 goals in their two matches. The contest tonight was the best seen so far during the tournament. The ice was faster, and as a result the men played decidedly better hockey than they did in any of the other games. ft was particularly lbelv in the second period, when it looked as though the experts from the far west were going to win the game.

At the end of the first period the score stood to 2 in favor of Quebec. During the second period Vancouver got the lead. 9 to 6. Although themselves than on Monday night. It was generally considered that after TOBACCO the long train rid they went on the ice Monday night in rather poor condition.

"High-handed," is the way some of the minor league magnates describe the way that organized ball is being run, and there is some talk that the thirteen leagues who have been refused better classification, which all consider they are justly entitled to, will bolt at the meeting next. November if the commission still refuses to grant their demands, and join the Federals in the formation of another association of minor leagues. Vies Start Early The Vies pressed the play from the' start, inside the first minute three or four shots were poured in on Gauthicr and he stood them off. Rut the Vies' attack was not to be denied and Moliski fired in the first inside a minute and a half. From the fare off Abbott and rushed and Abbott put the puck past Gauthicr in -0 seconds.

Grand Mere ihen pressed for a moment, but the Vies' defence relieved and in another minute the Vies were again crowding Gauthier hard. The speed of the game at this period was terrific, with the Vies showing absolute superiority, in three minutes more Moliski had put another against the Grand Mere net guardian and the game was on ice. With the score 3 to 0, the Grand Mere team seemed to come to life again for a short period. the Vies held off the attaek Willi ease, though they could not themselves penetrate the challengers' defence. Ritchie played a truly marvelous game at.

the period, and his work was auly sevond-ed by Stevens, who checked hard, and Hoffman, whose back-checking was also a feature. Vies Had Speed The Grand Mete attacks were, smothered by the speed of the Vies' forwards, Wilson and Abbott especially checking back with determination and great speed. The Vies began playing mure of a defensive game, although always they wen; threatening the i rand Mere nets. The half ended without further scoring, and the Vies left the ire with a margin of five on the round. In the second half the play was much the same.

There was little or no foul work seen. The one or two penalties handed out by tile officials all were for minor fouls. The. Canadian rule of allowing substitutes any time created one little bit of trouble during the third period. Vancouver claimed that one of the Quebec goals was shot while seven men were on the ice.

There was a little argument over the play. Finally the referee allowed the goal. The first of the final games will be played Saturday night. The second contest will take place next Monday night.
