So Chaucer Elliott Said to a Toronto Reporter -- Working Back on the Game of Base- ball--Sporting Nates. "Chaucer" Elliott, who was in the old days--not so very long ago, either somewhat of a football player him- self, was in the city to witness the game between the Rough Riders and Varsity for the championship of Can ada. In conversation with a representa tive of the Toronto News, he had something to say regarding the foot ball situation as it exists in Canada to-day. In the first place, he consid- ers it high time that something was done to give a semblance of unifica- tion to the rules as they obtain in the diffecent.-unions, and, in the second place, he is vesy emphatically of the opinion that the Burnside game does not afford the ultimate degree of ex cellence in this respect. "The situation as regards the rules under which football is played at pres ent is very unsatisfactory,' he re marked. "Of course, the Hamilton ligers are not now caleulated to meet tke Rough Riders, of Ottawa. It is just as well that this is so. Even if they did the game would be a farce on one side all the "time, and ven muth of a farce on the other half of the time. By that I mean that th Rough Riders would be practically un able to play the snapback game, nc matter how much they might try, while the Tigers woukl at least be able ti. make a blufi af playing the serimmage unequalled values Diamond Hall can offer customers through having factories. its own The article is of first quality silver plate in Colonial design of hand pierced effect.
