    THE GAME OF QUOITS.
CAN BE PLAYED ANY PLACE AND 13
SPLENDID EXERCISE.

the tinrxiHH.tod, It may bo that thn timn
in nrnrly ripe for qnoit to be tnken ont

id to th HtutnH of a national Rnme, to
have weekly pnjirrn naintit after it and
to have columns in tho sporting prea
devoted to the doing; of its champion!".
Ptrnnjror thins have happened. Who.
for inHtani'O, wonld have r.M when nt
the end of the gixtlea. a few energetic
nportumen went wobbling nbont on bono
hakinff bieyclin whieh it wonld have
been far easier to ptnth than to ride
that nt the end of the centnry consider
ably more than 100.000 bicycles wonld
be mannfartnred annually in Great
Britain alone and thnt a great part
of the popnlntion wonld adopt thin
means of locomotion t One rnnnot Im
agine that qnoita will ever attain nch
popnlarity as tho bicycle, bnt the nn
prejndicfid person can see no reason
why it shonld not become as favorite a
pastime as golf, which a very few years
ao was almost nnheard of sonth of the
Tweed.
Qnoits is a very fine name, especially
in the winter time. It is splendid exer
cise and trains tho eye and the hand to
act together in a way that few other
sports can do, for the very essence of it
is accuracy of aim at a mark placed be
lcw the level of the hand. It has been
objected that throwing qnoits makes
the player lopsided, bnt, nfter all, that
is easily remedied, for there is nothing
to prevent tho player throwing the
qnoit with his left hand if he so pleases,
and such a chnnge would make a varia
tion in the game and also afford an ex
cellent method of handicapping the men
of unequal skill. Qnoits strengthens the
arms and shoulders, bnt it is not a pas
time which primarily demands strength.
A great advantage of the game is that
it can be played in any small space and
that the ground need not be particular
ly level. Any rough field or waste bit
of ground is good enough for a qui, its
pitch, and no rolling or cutting is re
quired to satisfy the demands of the
most exigent. For cricket yon need a
carefnlly prepared wicket, for lnwn
tennis and croqnet a piece of turf like
a billiard table and for golf the best
part of a country all to yourself, but for
quoits yon only need a few yards of
rough ground, and yon have as good a
place for throwing as any one can pos
sibly require.
People certainly might play qnoits
more than they do, but the taking up
of a game is usually a matter of fancy,
and perhnps two things stand in the
Tray of quoits. First, there is an idea
that it is "rustic" sport and can only
be played by the rough country lads,
and, second, there is the legend that
the game is derived from the classical
discus throwing, a suspicion which it
must be confessed is enough to throw a
alnr on any well regulated game.
No treatise on qnoits can begin with'
ont the time honored pedigree of the
qnoit from tho discus. Strntt, who lived
at the end of the last century, of course
dealt with it, and equally of course he
dragged in the discus even if he did not
invent the descent of qnoits from the
sports of ancient Greece. The thing, of
course, is absurd. To make a discus,
the artisan did not, in the words of the
immortal Irishman, take a hole and pnt
some iron around it. The discus waa
more like a flattened Dutch cheese and
waa a solid missila Moreover, it was
not held in the same manner as a qnoit,
bnt waa bowled underhand, in which
indeed it alone differs from pntting the
weight. That quoits is now played
chiefly in the country is the fault of
' those who do not play it and bring it
into fashion.
It is no doubt a very ancient English
game, and its beginnings ere lost in the
mist of ages. Hakluyt mentions it in
his book of "Voyages, " so it was well
known in Qnoen Elizabeth's time, when
it probably was one of the favorite
sports of Merrie England. In some
parts of the conntry the rustics nsed to
employ horseshoes for want of properly
made quoits, and there are districts in
which the qnoit is called a "shoe" even
to this day. This gives ns the clew to
the most probable origin of the sport
and hints that the first game of quoits
was started by throwing old horseHhoes
at the hob or mark, and from this grad
ually grew up the practice of having
qnoits specially made for throwing. So
much for the discna legend. As for the
word "quoit" itself, its etymology is
more than doubtful, and it gives ns no
clew whatever to the origin of the
game. .
Shakespeare, who mentions evecy-
thing except tobacco, of course has a
reference to the sport, and as Hakluyt
was a contemporary of his it may be
hold to show tliut the spacious times of
Great Elizuboth wore the palmy period
of quoits. It 1b true that he does not
ipeak of the sport in very rnputuble
connection, for the only mention of it
occurs in the scene in which Prince
- Honry, Falntnff, Poins and the rest
.were in the Boar's Boud tavern, in
EoHtuhopo. FulHtuff, in giving a char
acter sketch of the young prince, ob
serves that he plays qnoits well, but the
context very dourly shows that in
Queen ElizubutU's time at any rate
quoit playing was looked down upon as
the lUlu man H recreation, much us skit
tles is with us. That fat Jack Fulntuff,
disrepntuble old fellow as he was.
mount to imply no good ( the prince
by his reference to quoitM Is very evv
dent. This is the only refurence to
quoits in Bliukutmuure, uud it is a libel,
though the sting Is taken out of it by
the fact that it is put into tho mouth

The orange of Louisiana is an excep
tionally fino variety of that frnit, and
Commands ft good price in the market.
Tho orange wa first introduced into
colonial Lonlsinnn by tho Jesnlts, hav
ing been first grown by the members of
the society on their grounds, which
formerly comprised that part of tho city
of New (Jrl'Miia which constitutes the
lower part of the first district, down to
Common rtreet.
While St. Bernard and Plaquemines
parishes are tho chief centers of the
orange tnltnre of Louisiana, the fruit
also grows well in the parishes of Or
leans. Jefferson, St. James, St. John
Baptist, St. Charles. Assumption, St.
Mary, Terrebonne, Lafourche, Vermil
ion, Cameron. Iberia and Sabine. The
orange tree begins to benr at about the
seventh year, although it is not reck
oned to have reached its full growth
until its twelfth or fifteenth year.
The orange culture in Louisiana is
probably tho most profitable Industry of
the state nnder favorable conditions, a
full gTown tree producing from 8,000
to 8,000 oranges, the frnit on the tree
generally selling for (10 a thonsnnd,
and as some of the largest orchards in
tho state yield as many as 8.000,000
oranges their market value gives a
princely income to the owners of the
trees. Comparatively a very small acre
age of the state is devoted to the growth
of oranges possibly not moro than
S.000 acres.
The sweetness, delicacy and jniciness
of tho Lonlsinnn orange, the best of
which are regarded in the markets out
side of Louisiana ns superior to even the
oranges of Cuba, to which island the
frnit is indigenous, render the Louisi
ana oranges highly prized in tho north
and west of tho United States, so much
so that tho supply is not by any means
equal to the domnncj. New Orleans

When he was a Harvard student, the
late Sbernmu Hoar became famous as
maker of epigrams. One evening he had
been indulging in his usual style of
conversation in the rooms of Professor
D., a man after his own heart, but too
apt to interlard hii lectures with ap
parently original witticisms taken, after
the in miner of Moliere, wherever he
found them. Whou Hoar and a fellow
student had left the academic presence,
the latter enthusiastically cried; "By
Jove, Sherman, bow do yon mannge

bright things yon said just now. "
