OUR SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT: MISS MARY MARDEN; TOO LATE!; THE MERRY WIVES OF WINDSOR AT THE HAY-MARKET THEATRE; A ..

... OUR SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT. WOLVES. A EACE FOR LIFE. It is only necessary to say of our special supplement that it is a Polish scene by a Polish painter.

It is then that the wolves, too, starved into ferocity, become an absolute terror, and such an incident as is depicted is not ...

THE LAST OF THE CURLING SEASON.-- ABER--FELDY v. WEEM

... THE LAST OF THE CURLING SEASON.-- ABER- FELDY v. WEFM. THE roaring game all Scotchmen declare to be king o' games, and when the icy board is hard and holding the angler forgets the rod and the golfer thinks not of his favourite driving club; the broom and the curling stones, the cram pit, the hoose, and the potlid are all uppermost in his mind. It is possibly more the game of the people ...

AN INTRODUCTION TO GOLF

... . By a Novice. BY an introduction to golf I do not wish the reader to imagine that I am about to relate the difficulties and disappointments I encountered during the first game I ever played; that would scarcely edify a schoolboy. My intention is really to try to prove that the intricacies and difficulties of the game are such, that, to a person taking it up late in life, an introduction of ...

TROUT FISHING AT KENMORE, N.B

... Locu Tay is year by year becoming more important for its trout fishing, owing probably to its judicious stocking and careful preservation by the Marquis of Breadalbane. His lordship takes great interest in this branch of sport, more, I am told, than he docs even in salmon fishing, although of the latter he has some of the finest in Scotland, at the very doors, so to say, of Taymouth Castle. ...
