SOCCER FOOTBALL.
WIN FOR AUCKLAND. DUTCH NAVAL MEN BEATEN. AUCKLAND, Saturday. The third international Soccer match in which navymen have opposed the local representative eleven was played this afternoon, when the men from the Dutch ships provided the opposition. The foreigners, who included several coloured players in their ranks, were not exactly novices at the game. The greatest drawback to the visitors obviously was the state of the ground, which made footing—and they were without: studded boots—impossible. in some parts of the arena. Auckland won by 8 goald to 2. The band of the Java discoursed music during lhe game, the proceeds of which are for..the Conquer Cancer Campaign.
