A New Lawn Game.

At the Queens Club West Kensington, an
exhibition was given of the new lawn game
Tema. which has recently been introduced
The game, which can be played with equal
enjoyment by both soxes. possesses many
claims to popular favor. 1t can be followed
in any season. and by as few as four or as
many as fourteen persons at once. Skill.
agility and good eye are far moro requisite
than mere physical strength. and the proper
manipulation OF the wand by means of quick
wrist turns develops and renders flexible the
muscles of the arm and wrist.
A screen of wood or canvas, fixed on light
frame and having iii the centre cir cular
aperture eighteen inches in diameter is er, acted
Behind the hole is fIed a bagnet. ana the
main object Of the players. who stand some
distance away, Is to throw mum Dor Of
colored balls by means of the wand in to this
bag. The wand has at one end pc :uliarly
shaped crook for holding the ball. br L some
little skill Is necessary TO retain the bi III in il
for the purpose of making the throw.
The number of pot balls'' to be cored by
either side before it can complete the frs,
stage of the game corresponds with he mum

has scored the number of pc, balls
agreed upon, it enters upon the sec ,nd stage

THE SOUTHIN 1891 AND THE
DUTY BEFORE IT.

DUTY BEFORE 1T.
With the clearing of the skies that
have been overcast SO long come re-
ports of renewed activity in develop
ment circles in the Virginias, the
Carolinas, Tennessee, Kentucky and
the further South. Much of what
will be done during the summer of
1881 will rest on frmer foundation
than do some of the plans now in
operations; that is to say, they will
start with better send off, more
complete calculations rs to probable
success have been made, and hence q
considerable part of the long strug.
gle to ''catch on" as the phrase is,
will be done away with.
This is o condition Of things which
should call forth the heartiest con
gratulations. The South is admit.
edly land of vast resources and of
wonderful possibilities, but it is BY
no means land that will yield tho
spe ulntor or visitor o. rich return
with no expenditure of labor. Ma
ture has been prodigal in her en-
dowments. bat she has left some.
thing for man to do and to do that
as best he can is his duty. To this
need, the Virginia Manufacturer has
again and again called attention and
other Journals throughout the South
have echoed it's words. The devel.
opment that is now going on accor-
dug to well defined plans should
receive no set back. The South has
stood the financial depression won
derfully well. Perplexing questions
as to labor, manufacturing, transpor.
tation, markets, etc, seem to find nm
easy solution here. Capitalists ev-
erywhere have confidence in the
worth of Southern Investments and
