HooPs, The proper and legitimate
hoop should be made of II stout ashen
lath, round ON the outside and Hat on
the inside, and should be well fastened
mt ats point of juncture it should be IN
height So as TO reach midway between
the youngsters elbow and shoulder, so
that he may not have to stoop while
striking it. The stick shOuid be about
sixteen inches long and made of tough
ash; aud in bowling the hoop the
bowler should strike it vigorously in
the centre, aud IN IL direction horizon

else is exceedingly good, and u good
run with such hoop Will warm the
youth in the very coolest weather.
Nothing can be more Objectionable
than are modern IRON hoops; they are
exceedingly dangerous 10 by-passers,
and many are the shins that hive been
broken, and not few old men have
been thrown down and killed by them.
The practice OF running them with a
crooked piece Of iron is also foolish,
for il defeats the end of the hoop.
which is to give exercise to the arm.
while running gives ii to the legs. The
game called encounters can be well
played with wooden hoops, but not
with iron ones. Ii consists of two
players driving their hoops against
each other from long distances, the
victor being he who beats the other
hoop down. Sometimes string is ex-
tended across the diameter of tine hoop,
and another at right angles with TINS,
while some pieces OF TIN are tied loose
~ in the centre, to jingle as the uoop
is driven.
Hoor RAcE.-Any number of boys
can join IN TINS exciting sport, but they
ought all TO be provided with hoops as
hearty equal in size as possible. At q
given signal, The players all start to-
gother and each eudcayors to reach

regular distances, and their number is
regulated by the number of keepers.
When all is ready, the first player
starts his hoop and endeavors to
drive it through all the turnpikes !;
should he succeed in this, he turns the
hoop, drives it back again, and retains
it until it touches one of the turnpikes,
the keeper OF which now becomes hoop
driver. When player touches the
hoop with his hand, or allows it to fall,
he must deliver it up to the nearest
turnpike keeper. Each keeper must
stand on that side of his turnpike
which is toward the right hand OF the
hoop-dr. Yer, and it therefore follows
that he must alter his position when
the hoop-driver returns. Should a
keeper stand on his wrong side, the
driver need not send the hoop through
his turnpike. When the players are
numerous, here may be two or more
hoops driven at once.
The PoP-GUN. The best pop-guns
are made of strong straight piece of
elder, and should be about six inches
long. The pith of this should be pierre
ed out by an iron ramrod fitting the
hole; and when tho INSIDE is Thorough
ly smooth by rubbing the rod up and
down, it is ready for use. The pellets
are mede with moistened tow-blown
paper is nasty thing to put into the
mouth, and we shall never advise the
use Of it. When the pellet is prepar-
ed, it should be laid over the mouth of
the gun IN such quantity as to require
squeezing and plugging in. The first
pellet should be driven through the gun
to its other end the second pellet is to
be driven III, in a similar manner to the
first, and then, as it is forced through
the gun, the air between the pellets
being incompressible beyond certain
point, forces out the lower pellet with
a loud pop" hence the term "pop-
gum, which has been applied to them.
Pop-Buns are not very healthy exer-
else; the pressing of the hammer against
the put of the stomach frequently lead
ing to arrangement of that organ. To
prevent this, the lad who plays at pop
gun should have small round board
slung over his neck by string hanging
as low as the PIT of his stomach, against
which he should press the handle of his
ramrod when he fires off his pop-gun.

The Horse Disease.

The gravest apprehensions are felt
about the horse disease, which seems
alarmingly ON the increase in New York.
1t is now believed to be not only cpl
demic, but contagious. 4 great many
blood horses are said to have been
seized with the disease-those of Bon
ner, Vanderbilt, Wilkes, Belmont, Fisk,
and Stewart among the rest. 1t is re-
ported that during the week as many
as 30 or 40 horses, valued at IS, 900 to
S10,0 900 each, have died of the plague,
and all horse.owners are greatly alarm
ed for the safety of their property. At
present, at least 1900 animals are suf-
teung from the contagion, which baf-
tles all the skill of veterinary surgeons.
There is little doubt the epidemic will
spread hence all over the country, and
no limits can be set to its diffusion. -
The disease has increased in violence to
an extraordinary degree within the past
fortnight.
