Wild Times At Wolcott.

Therewasa witd time wt Wolcott, on Thanksgiving Day. Those anoieut enemies and bitter rivals in the foot-ball world, Remington and Woloott, met at the latter place. The teams are very evenly matched, and during the first half neither side oould soore. In the second half Wolcott made a touohdown and a goal kick, in seven or eight minutes. A decision of the umpire however gave- Remington rank offense, and they quit the field. The umpire, whose name ia Oohs, and pronounced ox, could hardly have wanted to "hook” the game from Remington, for he is a Remington man himself, but the RemiDgton boys kicked Ochs like steers. An incident of the conflict was a fight on the side-lines be tween the adherents of the two teams, but it waß suppressed without any disastrous results.
