Il see where the rush comes in; but why
do you call it a Dutch rush"
Because it's Dutch treat, you know
every girl buys her own ticket.
Suppose some day an usher should come
and put you out of the front seats"

Boys principally, and dress a great deal.
Yes; we talk an awful lot about marriage
more than about anything else. Most of us

SLUGGING TO BE BARRED.
THE BRITISH FOOTB all TEAM AND
THEIR COMING VISIT.

They Will Play Picked Teams in New
York and Elsewhere Throughout
This Country and Canada, and May
Challenge the Great College Teams.
a Scientific Game in Which Slug
Cling scrimmages and Other Excit-
ing Features are Ruled Out.
CCopWi9atl
NEw YORK, July 5-Football. as it is
played in Great Britain, under association
rules, has made rapid strides in the United
States aad Canada during the last five or
six years. There are now in New York
city and vicinity eight clubs, and number
Of others in New England and the Domin-
ion, the more prominent being the Olymplcs
of Fall river, who hold the championship of
the United States, the Pawtucket Free
Wanderers, the Fall River Rovers.
and the Nonpareils Last year Amer
lea sent over to Britain Its cham
pion base ball nine to show US
how their national game looked
when played at its best, and it must be
admitted that the impression among ath-
letes over there was that the game was a very
scientific one, although we never could get
on TO the rules thoroughly. Partly as re-
turn the international football players of
Great Britain have decided to send over
here in August next a representative team,
holding the championship of the Old World
under associate rules, and it is to make the
necessary arrangements for that visit that
| have come to this country at the present
time.
The British team will consist of twelve
men-eleven players and asubstitute, under
the captainship of one of the best players in
the three kingd ms, in all probability John
NJ. Pollock, the present captain of the Clyde
Football Club of Glasgow, an international
association player. The members will be
picked men, chosen from the three
leading clubs belonging to the asso-
ciatlon-the Queens Park, the Third
Lanark and the Rangers. Last year
the former club won the associa-
ton cup. capturing % out of total of 81
matches, while the latter won 81 out of a
total of 81. This international team, while
representing the finest players in the United
Kingdom, will be essentially Scotch in its
composition, although some of the members
may be drawn from English clubs as we'll.
The game of football, as played under
association rules, differs materially from
that played here by many of the college
teams. Perhaps a little description of it
may be of interest at the present time.
When the game is called, each team has
eleven men in the field. The ground is laid
out as sketched in the following diagram:

The Portsmouth Times, Democratic pa
per, has procured the opinion of Judge E. r.
Hoar and Hon. William G Russell on the
legal points involved in the New Hampshire
legislative controversy. These lawyers hold
that the members elected under the new
census are not entitled to take part in the
organization, that the members from the
small towns expressly authorized to elect In
1890 can do so, while the unbiased towns are
barred out. The effect of this opinion, as
Stunning 1t to be sound, is uncertain. The
Republicans claim that it would give them
the House, while the Democrats maintain
just as stoutly that under it they would have
majority in that branch. The soundness
OF the opinion is brought in question by the
Hon. j. Fl. Drummond in communication
to the Portland Advertiser, in which be
maintains that the new census members
have right to take part In the organization.
AS to the Other members in dispute, he
agrees with Messrs. Hear and Russell. The
reasons Mr.. Drummond gives for his opin-
ion seem conclusive. But the case is full of
intIicacies.

A woman residing in the eastern part of
the State is believed to be suffering with
CHAMBERS, taken from horse which came
from Massachusetts and which had the dis
ease when brought into this state. In all
probability the seller of this horse knew
perfectly well that the animal was afflicted
with the disease. DR.. Bailey, the veteri-
nary surgeon, says it is not uncommon for
horses thus affected to be sent into this
State from Massachusetts, and the Provinces
to be sold. Chambers is most loathsome
disease. and is easily communicated to
man. To sell horse SO affected ought
to be made penal offence. Compared with
such an act, many of the offences for which
we send men to prison for long term of
years are as white as snow.

Schemes for the reform of our system of

the difficulty of reducing it to practice that

country have grappled with problems of
taxation. and yet great many Of them still
remain unsolyed. 1t is hardly to be expect

that will apportion the burdens of govern

their intent ever SO honest they will find
many difficulties which are well nigh insup-

be before them the report of the tax commits
