Losinq Their Grip in Curling.

With five men topping six feet five
inches in height, the Scotch curling
team has again invaded the United
States and Canada, and departed with
a string of hardwon victories to it's
credit. Out Of a total of 113 games,
the list marks SO for it's honor. But
it is entertaining TO the American
sense of pride to realize that the ma
jolity in the Scotchmen's favor did
not fall to them so easily this year
as heretofore. The fun of the curling
game has been discovered on both
sides of the Canadian border, and, as
in the case of cricket, in which the
Americans now and then succeed in
soundly drubbing their opponents, the
Yankee and Canuck determination
has gone into the thing for something
else than second place. Another year
or two of games, it is thought, may
put the brawnw men of the other side
of the water to the bad.-COl)ier's
