We Hear

That Mr. Albert Hart has initiated a first-class idea. He is presenting a massive silver cup to be competed for by the teams representing the various trades in the town. All matches will be played on the Folkestone Ground, and the proceeds, after paying expenses, will be handed over to the hospital. This should make Folkestone`s football season next year doubly attractive.

Wednesday, December 17^th: Before Alderman Banks, Lieut. Colonel Hamilton, and Messrs. Herbert, Wightwick, and Swoffer.

Mr. G.W. Haines appeared for the applicant, and pointed out that it was not his client`s intention to allow any liquor to be sold there.

Mr. Herbert suggested that it would be possible to sell liquor from this office.

Mr. Haines said that there could be no object in so doing. The house itself was quite near.
