Origin of Billiards.

Billiards are played 80 much in this coun-
try that the game is not unfrcquently men
toned as American, although its origin is
either French or Italian-it is uncertain
which. The game, however, was imported
into Britain from France, and was known
to Englishmen by name as early as the six
tecnth century, since Shakespeare speaks of
}it-he seems to have been little less than
omniscient- in several of his dramas. He
even portrays Cleopatra as amusing herself
with billiards, but this is unqucstionably
one Of the palpable anachronisms to which
he appears to have been Indifferent, and
which he scattered throughout his plays.
The game itself was in all likelihood medi9-
val, but as played nowadays is compare
lively modern. For two centuries it was
played with only two (whitQ) balls, and
when the third (red ball was imported into
Britain, the red winning hazard. or holing
of the red ball was we'll nigh tho sole object
Of the players The billiard table of the
present is as different as it we'll can be from
the billiard table Of two hundred years ago,
as persons know who have noticed their
evolution as represented by the tables of
divers eras. The greatest biiardists nre
the Russians, Spaniards, French and Ameri-
cans, who now play far more than any
other nation. The popularity Of the game
has increased greatly here within the last
twenty years. 1t is said that there are now
six times as many tables in the country as
there were at the beginning of the civil war.
Europeans suppose that all Americans play
billiards. irrespective of sex, age or position.
