Series of Victories for the Redskins.

Inc only game, save the savage pleasures of the
war and the chase which the white man found
the red men of North America enjoying when
he landed on these shores was the Indian ball
game known among the Five Nations BY
name which had nearly as many consonants
as there were players, Observation-Disclosures
and among other tribes by the more mellflu-
GUS appelation "Baggataway." The sport
commended itself to the Indians by its simpli-
plicity of aim and its wild rush and excitement.
They found in it the divine fury of combat, and
its trial of endurance and muscle gave it zest
and importance which no mere trial of skill, no
quieter sport could command. The early tray.
elers among the Indians say that the utter
widness and fury of play in the original game
surpasses anything ever before or since re
corded OF any field sport. In its exercise the
grave and taciturn red man became as noisy
and hilarious as an Irishman at Denny brook
Fair. Certainly no other game of the kind has
so tragic story is connected with this, for it
is associated with one of the saddles
episodes OF our colonial history, that
massacre of the British garrison at
Fort Macklnaw which was the first fruit of the
Conspiracy of Pontiac. On the 4tb of June,
1863 the ojibywas assembled in large numbers
before the Fort and invited the garrison to
witness the game of ''baggataway' The
gates were thrown open and the officers and
men lounged about to see the sport The In.
dams under pretense of driving the ball through
the goal next the gate gathered their whole
force of warriors under the walls of the Fort,
L.
every man in the garrison. This deed of blood
has given Lacrosse place in history which
happily no other field sport possesses.
The capabilities of the game were early seen
ana appreciated by the white settlers in Cana

TG-DAY's PROGRAMME.

When Col. Needham telegraphed that GAL
Massachusetts is coming to the New England
Fair" he but half stated the case. He should
have said that all New England would attend,
and if he was in attendance yesterday as he
was the day before, he would have been aware
of the fact that he had miscalculated the num-
Der who would attend. 1t is true there was a
crowd the day before at both Park and Hall.
but yesterday there was more than a crowd-a
perfect jam. The fact that the interesting
play of Lacrosse was to be played for the first
time in the state drew an immense throng to
the grounds in the morning, and the interest
Ing races in the afternoon greatly increased the
number. No one who comes to the city thinks
of neglect;ng the fair at City Hall, and SO all
the attractions given at the Park assist the
whole fair.
The dust is the only drawback to the exhibi-
top. The weather has been as fine as one
could wish, but the same wind which cools the
air also bears heavy volume of insufferable
dust, binding all within its reach. The shell
road leading to the track has been worse than
usual, if possible.
There is now but one more day of the exhibit
ton, and if there are any who have not yet
availed themselves of the opportunity to see
the finest fair ever held in Jew England, they
should improve this the last day.
