Mass last night at the Biou in one.of the quickest
games record. Tho actual playing time was

played Of which the Globes won two and the Bilious
one. The playing of both clubs was the best yet
seen here. The Bilious could not have done better
and every one of them seemed to be alive to the
occasion. The playing was unusually lively and
there was but very little if any roughness used

flying back. First a body stop. then straight
liner and then bitf by the hockey, and it seemed
almost impossible to get ball past him. Kief of
the Globes also did finely after he got warmed up
to it. Connors of the Globes is considered an ex-
ira good rusher but Foster got ahead of him every
time. Bolan is also considered of the best
cover points in the country. These two men have
been added since the Bilious met them in Haver

Lie game Started Win all Ino play In the vicinity
of the Bijous goal. The Globes made het work
there for half minute and then the ball went out
side. 1t was again started and in another half
minute Foster got the goal by one of his peculiar
back handed shots from under the band stand.
The next goal Orr got after ohehalf minutes play.
The third goal also lasted half minute and was
got by Foster, who ran the bali around the corner
of the cage into the netting. Of course there was
wild applause at this and cries for MORE so three
exhibition goals were played. The first one lasted
five aud one-half minutes. 1t was secured by Con-
nors for the Globes, who struck the ball into the
cage Just as time was called by Of the Bilious.
In the second goal after one-haf minutes play Orr
sent the ball into Kefs feet, but it sent back
again. Orr ran up to meet it and put it into the
goal. But the game was played under Massachus-
etts rules and Orr was thought to be in the goal
circle when he struck the ball. No goal was al
lowed. After six minutes more play Orr sent the
ball again into the Globes cage but it went in with
such force that it bounded out again. 1t was only
in motion half minute after that when one of the
Globes had it Gagged in the Bilious goal. The third
and last one was won after seven minutes play by
pretty pass from Foster to Orr, who Gagged the
ball. The audience then appeared to be satisfied
and the climbs left the floor

land alone every year necessitateS the death
OF 80, 90 elephants, aud from various
causes the annual death rate of this most
interesting Of quarupeds is estimated at not
less than 100 900. Breeding in captivity
must then be depended on eventually to
propagate the species, and how far success
full this has been may be inferred from
the general re ocing among show peOpls
when at rare intervals q baby elephant is
born.
In death Jumbo, by his tusks alone,
proves his immense value. Ivory at Liver
pool has brought as high as 1900 pounds
sterling per ton. In 1879 it went down to
900 pounds sterling per ton, but has since
advanced nearly 100 per cent The dead
