Referee Mr. Roas.

The Club kicked off and made tracks for their opponents' quarters. Play was indiffer ent and many wide and wild kicks were indulged in. The Military forwards, however, got going and they looked dangerous and narrowly missed scoring, the ball only being

too high by inches.” The Fusiliers were con tinually attacking, but, a good defence, was ollered to their efforts. The "Vics" made several spurts, but in their eagerness to score they had to be cautioned by the referee for fouls. The Club played so well to half tins that, with the ball round the Military goal and the custodian several yards in front of his charge in his endeavours to keep the ball away, a goal was registered by the V. R. C. and hail time was called with the Soldiers in arrear by one.

The Fusiliers restarted play but the "Vics" forwards were playing better. From good passing in the centre of the field, Henderson shot from well out, and the ball dropped into the net, thus putting his side' two goals ahead, The ball travelled quickly from one end of the field to the other and piny for a time settled round the Club's goal. They conceded a corner and from the kick, an easy goal was last, as with a litle "go" a score was certain.. The game fluctuated and was not of a very high order. The whistle brought time with the result

All lovers of aulnials certainly ought to pay a visit to the Circus, if only to see the tigers and the two elephants. Duke, the Bengal tiger, is as fine a specimentas is to be seen anywhere. The two young tigers are fine animals and are

splendid condition. Babe, so-called because it is the bigger of the two elephants, is a very clever trick animal and is, most polite to visi tors. As for the haby elephant, we feel sure that every longkong chill who sees it will want to possess one as a pet. Our tame na turalist has a had poacher's coat made with extra large pockets, but we notice the elephant keeper always has a sharp eye upon hint."

The Crocodile Act is as fine a contortionist exhibition as we have seen. The man appears to have no bones, whatever, and his joints and everywhere where one least expects them to be In many of the positions which he assumes i is difficult to tell which is chest and which is back and he is apparently as comfortable when strolling sound on his hands with his legs curled up over his back and his feet tucked under his chin as when walking in the posture, usually assumed by the ordinary mortal.
