The inter - divisional hockey trial season was brought to a conclusion on Saturday by the meeting of the Midlands and South at North- ampton and of the East and North at Cam bridge . The former match , the first of the kind to be played at Northampton , provided a sensation in the decisive victory of the South by 5 goals to 1. The Midlands were the fueled team , but the visitors displayed reniarkable form both forward and in de fence , and thoroughly deserved their hand- some victory . A great factor in their success was the brilliant play of the left wing , Crutt- The latter was moved up . well and Stocks . into that position vice Matthews , who was un- able to play , and gave a wonderful exhibition , scoring three splendid goals .

A portion of the nie was also sent to the Roard of Agriculture , laboratory . and the chief Inspector there confirmed his Mr. Steward's ) opinion . In reply to the Chairman , the witness said it would be difficult to say how long the pig had been dead , or how long it had been buried . P.S. Kendall deposed that he visited the defendant's premises with Mr. Money . The defendant said he sent the pigs to the mar- ket . He also said that they were castrated on the 19th of January , and that the pig in onestion had died only two days before , which would be the 17th January .
