Death on tho Football Field.

An English athlete who does not
believe in cultivating muscle at the
expense OF human life has some very
vigorous things to say about the re-.
cent craze for tho stirring game of
football. In order to render his
arguments the more effective he has
backed them up by statistics on the
sport which embrace the deaths re.
corded between the months OF
September and March OF last year.
He styles his list roughly but graph
cally as "the butchers bill" No
less than twenty-six young and pro
missing men met their deaths in the
game during that period, and in the
majority OF cases the deaths were
horribly painful, the victims linger-
ing for few hours in irdescribable
agony. Those whose necks We're
broken or who died from sudden
heart failure are to be esteemed far
more fortunate than those who re-
ceived fatal internal injuries, or who
were kicked during the scrimmages
until it was impossible to preserve
the vital spark, The compiler OF
this record was unable to obtain the
set OF statistics which would have
greatly increased the list Of fatal
accidents. This list would have
dealt with those who died from the
effects Of injuries received on the
fields, and il is probable that il
would not have been shorter than
the list Of direct deaths. Manly and
vigorous as the sport may be, these
statistics may detract a little from
its popularity, and the words of an
aged divine may be echoed in many
parts Of our Dominion "From bat
tie, murder and sudden DEATH" ol
