The present professional game of
roller polo is some 20 years old. Among
the cities that first took it up are New
port, R. l., and Lowell Mass. The
game was first played with six men
on each side but this number was aft
erward reduced to five, the present
number. When the game was first
played, the contest was for the best
three goals out of five, but it was
found that such plan made the games
of too short duration, and time limit
was made of two halves of 20 minutes
each, and this again was subsequently
changed so that three periods OF 10
minutes each were played.
The game quickly took root when
first introduced, and leagues were num-
erous east and west, but in few years
the sport completely died out IN all
sections except New England. Here
the interest was kept alive. New BED
ford, Brockton, Salem and Boston were
old standbys of the game. The inter
est in Boston began to wane, when a
change was made in the location of the

There is wonderful revival of pop
ularity in the game of roller polo this
winter. The fact that twice as many
leagues have been organized as ever
before existed at any one time indi-
Gates the renewed interest in the sport.
In several cities new and expensive
Kinks have been built especially for use
in the game. Whereas few years ago
roller polo was not played to any
great extent outside of the New Eng
land States, it has now gained a
strong foothold in several other parts
of the country.
The fact that New York city has
taken up the game with great enthus-
iasm and has entered team in the
Southern New England league. will
have great influence in booming the
sport. The first contest in the metro
polls was recently played in the pres
ence of about 1900 people, who were
wildly enthusiastic over the fine points
of the game.
| asked Mr. Jacob c. Morse, the pres
ident of the National Polo League, and
one of the finest experts regarding the
game in the country, a few days ago
for short account of the history and
/ prospects of the sport this season. The
following is his reply:

WON BY PETER THE GREAT. Michigan Colt Beats the Favorite for 8
 $l0,OOO Purse.

Lexington, Ky, Oct. 6.-The fall meeting of the Kentucky Horsebreed- CTS association, began to-day with six races on the programme. The event of the day, the $1o,0oO futurity for three year-old trotters, was surprise for the talent, being won in straight heats by Peter the Great, a Michigan colt who sold for $15 in pools of $100 The favorite, Charley Herr, made a game fight for every heat, but was outfooted. Peter the Great wor each heat with something to spare. Second, third and fourth moneys were divided between Charley Herr Limerick and Seraphina. The stake was worth $7,5OO to the win ner with $500 to his nominator, D. D. Streator, Kalamazoo, Mich., who still owns him.
 In the 2:o9 pace Searchlight sold at $15 to $1O for the field. The real contest was for second place, which fell to Sherman Clay, Nichol B. third. The third race on the card was split heat. This race was trotted before the Flu turity and while the track was still heavy, and was better race than the time indicated. The futurity for two- year-old trotters was won by The Mer- chant, Handspring and Boralma divid- ing second and third moneys. The Merchant was 8 strong favorite and won with ease.
 The Merchant is owned by his nonni- nator, w. A. Paxton of Omaha. The race for trotters for the 2:08 class brought out strong f1eld with Tommy Britton an even money favorite. In the first heat Pilot Boy led until well into the stretch, when William Penn passed hiw and won by two lengths. The second heat was repetition of the first until the half was reached when Foote loomed up with Rilna and won. The driving of Foote was much criticised and he may be punished for laying up the fourth heat. This race was unfinished going over until to- morrow

CAME PROTECTIVE SOCIETY.
Meeting of the County AssocIa ton Held
 Last Night.

The New Haven County Fish and Game Protective association held a largely attended meeting last evening in the office of the secretary, Charles G. Morris, at 139 Orange street. Tn ob- ject of this association is to enforce the game laws. Reports were made last night of a number of prosecutions brought and conviction secured of per- sons who had violated the game laws within the last few weeks. It was re- ported that the prosecutions brought by the society during it's existence has had good effect on the game fields and that already results are noticeable in the greater amount of game. The association now numbers about fifty members. An invitation is extended to all sportsmen interested in the work of the association to join the organiza- tion, information of which may be ob- tained from the secretary. Prosecu- tions are brought by the association not only against those caught shooting out of season, but also against those found with game in their possession when the law is on.
