A NEW GERMAN GAME.
BERLIN, Oct. 26.-The emperor
has been earnestly studying foot ball
for weeks past. The idea first sug
gested itself t. him during the tiue
he was nursing his injured knee on
board the Hohenzollern. Immedi- !
ately upon his return to Berlin the
London embassy received lnstruc-
tions to buy up every available book |
upon the English national game
and the bookshelves or all the Lon
don publishers were rausacked with
out moments delay. The result |
has been the arrival at Potsdam of
cases upon cases containing nothing
but works upon the pastime under
Rugby, Association, and every |
other rule ever invented. His
with the aid of several
officers of bis personal staff who are
with the English Ian
guage, has waded through these
various works, and the result is, the
inception of new and wonderful
game which is going to make Eng
Ianders and Englanderines fairly sit
up in establishment.
There are to be two distinct games
one played with large ball and the
other with a small one. The in
fantry of the line are to play the
arge ball game and the cavalry and
guards the other. The major ball is
about two yards in circumference
and constructed of sheepskin in
Hated and surrounded by strong
eather bands; the miner ball is an
ordinary hollow ball of india rubber
sncased in stout untanned leather,
md about twice the size of an Eng
ish cricket ball. There is a compli-
,ation of goals placed at stragetic
points in the game which covers a
much more extended area than the
English one.
The English residents in this city
ire chucklirg at the startling inno-
and are ready to man to
urn out en- mssse and witness the
irst terrible encounter between two
egiments whenever the public eye
5 permitted to gaze upon the con-
est. At present the troops are TAX
ng private lessons within the con-
ines of the barrack yard, and
anathemas on the incon-
1enience of barked shins are pouring
rom the mouths of officers and
