Idaho Wants Game Preserve.

Boise, Idaho.-Idaho is negotiating
with the federal officials for a national
game reserve of 10000 acres of land
included within the Pocatello national
forest. The negotiations have been
opened with the Idaho delegation at
Washington, Senators Borah and
Brady, and Representatives French
and Smith. The aim is to stock the
reserve with elk from jackson hole,
and to have a law protecting them.
Sportsmen say that Idaho must take
immediate steps to set aside large re-
serves like that proposed for the Poca-
tello forest in order that rare game in
this state can be kept from becoming
extinct.

POLO AN OLD GAME
Sport Popular in Persia Under
Name Of "Chaugan."
Women Played In Early Times, Ac-
cording to an Old Painting Now In
British Museum-Fiourished
In 600 e. c..

New York.-When polo was first
played in England in 1869 it was
styled hockey on horseback Yet
hockey itself was one of the III
Gus games with stick and ball de-
rived from the common ancestor, polo.
They called it 'chaugan" in the days
when the sport was popular with the
Persians. AS far back as the sixth
century B.. G. this sport Of the Per
sian aristocracy was in a tiourishing
condition. The ancient Persian poets
sang its praises even as do h sport
ing writer's today. The game was
played by Persian women, too. In the
British museum there is al old paint
ing OF several Persian ladies playing
a game Of polo. The painting shows
that the Persians bandaged the legs
OF their mounts exactly as the polo
ponies are b%andaged today.
The Mohammedans, when they con
Quered Persia, learned the game of
"~chaugan," and liked it SO much that
they o it up for one OF their own
sports.
The game travelled from Persia to
Tartary, and then to India via Afghan
istan. Japan and China. too, had
games bearing a close resemblance
to it. in fact, throughout the entire
east polo was the principal game. 1t
derived its present name from the
pull of the Tibetan tongue, mean
ing a willow ball.
Among tie natives OF India the game
was "kunjai," and was introduced into
England, after having been brought TO
Calcutta by English army officers. The
Ninth lancers played the first polo
match in England in 1871. There was
on great interest taken in the sport
by the English public until many inn
proyements We're made in the rules
From eight men on a team the num-
Der Of players was gradually reduced
to four.
The style of play changed also. At
first the ball was thrown into the cen
ter of the field and all the players
spurred their horses to the center of
the field after 1t. This was changed
so that the teams lined up as they do
now. The sport then became popular
in England, and, in 1880, the Hurting
ham club, now the representative polo
club in England, was formed.
Polo vas introduced into the United
States in 1873. 1t was first played
at Dickler's riding academy. Two
polo clubs were organized, the West.
chester Polo club and the Brighton
polo club IN 1870 In tho fret match
in the United States, held at Prospect
park, Brooklyn, the Westminster team
defeated the Brighton team. The IA
nous Meadow Brook club was started
