THE HISTORY OF FOOTBALL.
THE HONGKONG DAILY PRESS, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 29TH, 1910.
From a sietel in the State of South Africa, by Porty S. T. Jones, apropos of the ap. proaching visit of the British Rugby team, ono gleans the history of football. Football in Great Britaiu owes its orign to the Romans, who played with a ball of cloth or leather stuffed with flocka, called harpastum, or with a windbag, called follis. The writer proseeds→→→
"It is not possible to produce any direct evidence of the progress or popularity of the game in England prior to the your 1175 It is fairly conclusively established, Lowever, that football goes back everal cun- turies further than cricket. In 1175 William Fitzstephen, writing in his history of London. of the young men of the city to play mention the fact that it was the habit at the well-known, game of ball after die gano was football, but what, its outstanding features were can only be a mattor at user work. The game was conflued to the classen: no rules existed for its control; the contests som to have been more in the zatare of general servibles, the goals being placed at either end of a town or street; and the number of players seems to have boon unlimited."
And there can be no boubt that
FORBIDDEN BY LAW-IN VAIN!
Although popular it met with opposition frog the authorities. Edward II. in 1304 forbade football unster pain of imprisonment, owing to the "groat zoise in the city caused by busting over large balls from which many svita might arise, W
which God forbid." The game nevertheless progressed. In 1315 Ed-
Ed ward III, ordered his sheriffs to suppress "anch idlu practices," because the skill at shooting with arrows was airest totally laid aside for the parpose of various useless and But 40 persistent were the unlawful
almost national pastime popular classes: that Richard II. and his successors had to continue to proclaim against tennise, foot bale, and other games," This determined perareation had no appreciable effect, however, The peoplu parsisted in the game they loved better than the law. James II of Scotland also found it necessary to order quarterly prac tices of arms when "footballo and golfe be utterly

"THE BUFFS ARE LOOKING,”
Sir Houry Pollatt, in his reply to the vivio address of welcome which was proconted to him on his arrival in Toronto from England with the Queen's Own Rifles, said:
During our visit to the Motherland we have very great pleasure in acknowledging many had grand and enthusiastic receptions, but I car fly say that not one has boon more appreciated than the magnificent reception which has been tendered to us today by our fellow-citizens of the tender grand old city of Toronto, our home.
Our waicome in the Motherland was truly British with the one exemption that the old tro- diticual British reserve was cast to the grids, and we were made to feel at once that we were heartily welcome. We went to see the British soldier in his own home, that we might benefit by his long years of military education, and have learned to admire his steadiness on parede and his endurance and efficiency on the teid..

INDIA AND OPIUM.
Following the publication of the Christian Appeal for an earlier suppression of the opium traße, several letters have appeared in the Times representing the effect of opium suppres aion on India.
Ernest Barnes, retirel, Inte of the Major Inding Political Service, writes:
It not only a question of the poorer classes among the Indian tax payers. The extinction of the opium will, in the absence of some sab- 13 LIL real fionncial stiinto or compensation, disaster to and cousonacat dislocation of severel of the Native State Governmanta.
