X THE ESMOND SADDLE Is A NEW DEPARTURE. The Rider moves the Saddle. Not the Saddle the Rider. NO VIBRATION. NO SADDLE SORENESS. £ 2 ^ NO PERINEAL PRESSURE. THE ESMOND SADDLE is not immovably fixed to the Cycle, but is slung from an elliptical bar attached to the |_ pin, so that the rider glides over all obstacles, and the vibra- tion and shocks sustained by the machine are not communicated to him. In addition to this swinging motion from back to front it has a slight rock from side to side which allows it to yield to the pressure of the leg muscles in making the stroke on the Pedals, permitting the full weight of the rider to bear on them, giving greatly increased power.

In the Historical and Commemorative Section many of the pictures illustrating the life of Her Most Gracious Majesty the Empress-Queen are, it will be observed, lent for the purpose by Her Imperial Majesty herself, and H.R.H. the Duke of Cambridge, and will prove most interesting to all visitors, of whatever nationality. Not only is Her Majesty represented in these pictures at every period of her life, but many of her relations and most intimate fiiends are also portrayed. Her Majesty’s interest in art matters is well known, but it has not been given to all to see her actual handi- work. Drawings by Her Majesty and other Members of the Royal Family, notably the Empress Frederick of Germany (our Princess Royal) are here exhibited, as well as Art Leather Work by Their Royal Highnesses the Princess of Wales, the Princess Victoria of Wales, and Princess Charles of Denmark. The End Gallery has been devoted chiefly to Ceremonial Pictures, such as “ The Coronation — Taking the Sacrament,” lent by Her Imperial Majesty, and to Portraits of Her-greatest Ministers, and of others distinguished in Science, Art, and Literature during Her Majesty’s reign. Heie also will be found the Insignia of the various British Orders of Knighthood, and the War Medals issued during the past sixty years. Col. the Hon. H. F. Eaton’s col- lection of Medals are a record in themselves of the military history of the nation during the reign of Her Majesty, and this is supplemented by a gallery of Naval and Military Pic- tures, amongst which is the “Wreck of the Birkenhead.” Of the two subsidiary Galleries included in the Section, one contains the smaller portraits of Her Majesty and Personal Victo rian Era Exhibition . 1897 .

On the outer walls of these subsidiary galleries, Mr. Algernon Graves has hung a series of pictures exhaustively illustrating the art of engraving during the reign. The loans to the Histofical and Commemorative Section illustrative of the history of sports and pastimes during the Victorian Era are so numerous and important that they have naturally formed an independent section, exhibited in one of the larger buildings of Old England ; and Mr. Charles Fagan, to whom the Directors of the London Exhibitions, Limited, are indebted for the remarkable suc- cess of the collection, has written a separate and special introduction for it. George Birdwood. LIST OF EXHIBITS HISTORICAL ROOM. 1 . The Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone. H. J. Thaddeus. The Right Hon. W. E. Gladstone was born in Liverpool on December 2gth, 1809, being the fourth son of the late Sir John Gladstone, Bart., a Liverpool'Merchant. He entered Oxford and, having taken a high degree, at the age of twenty-three years became Conservative Member for Newark. A remarkable volume on che connection between Church and State first brought him into notice as a man of great gifts. Sir Robert Peel selected him as one of the Junior Lords of the Admiralty, and a year later he filled the office of Under-Secretary for Foreign Affairs. In 1841, when Peel formed an Administration, he chose Gladstone as the President of the Board of Trade. In 1851 he left the Conservative benches, and after the death of Lord Palmerston he became Leader of the House of Commons. His great powers as a debater had long before been felt in the House — strong, ardent, and full of manly courage — assiduous in everything pertaining to work and discipline — a memory of surprising tenacity — every quality, in short, suitable to make him what he is generally known to be — “ the old Parliamentary hand.” He formed several Administrations ; and retired from public life after the passing of his Home Rule Bill, which was thrown out by the Lords. He is the author of many books, and still, at the age of eighty-eight, takes much interest in everything pertaining to the prosperity of Her Most Gracious Majesty’s Dominions.

African traveller and missionary, was born at Blantyre, near Glasgow ; began life as a mill-hand, but resolving to devote himself to missionary work offered himself in 1838 to the London Missionary Society, and was sent out to Port Natal. Here he met the Rev. Robert Moffat, whose daughter he afterwards married. He spent his life in exploring the interior of Africa, and on two occasions, in 1865 and 1870, expeditions were sent out in search of him. He was discovered by Henry M. Stanley at Ujiji, Central Africa, who was unable to prevail upon him to return home until he had completed the * Those pictures , &c., marked with an asterisk are for sale.

He died of dysentry at Ilala, near lake Bangweolo; but his body was brought to this country in the care of two of his faithful attendants, and accorded by a grateful Nation a resting-place amongst her honoured Sons in Westminster Abbey. Lent by Malcolm Stewart, Esq., R.S.A. 5 . * Lord Shaftesbury, K.G., &c. Malcolm Stewart. Anthony Ashley-Cooper, 7th Earl of Shaftesbury, K.G., was educated at Harrow and Christ Church, Oxford, and before quitting the University began to interest himself in that great humanitarian movement which characterised his life. He entered Parliament for Woodstock ; was a Commissioner of the Board of Control, 1828-30 ; a Lord of the Admiralty, 1834, an d an Ecclesias- tical Commissioner, 1841-47 He was essentially a man of intense feeling — a philanthropist of the most humane type, and during his long public life intro- duced by Acts of Parliament much reform in the amelioration and enlighten- ment of the lower classes. He effected the exclusion of female labour and of boys under tender years from working in the mines — also the “ Ten Hours” Bill relating to factories, and was President of The Ragged School Union. He was Chairman of the Lunacy Commission for fifty years, President of the Bible Society, &c., &c. He earned the title of “Social Reformer ” in an unique degree, was loved and respected by all classes, and died at the ripe age of eighty-four years. He became Earl in the year of the Great Exhibition, and was made K.G. in 1862. Lent by the French Reformed Evangelical Church, Bayswater. 6. The House of Commons, 1874. F. Sargent.

Isambard Kingdom Brunel, F.R.S. (1806-1859). J- C. Horsley, R.A. Eminent engineer. Son of Sir Marc Isambard Brunei ; born at Ports- mouth ; assisted his father in the construction of the Thames Tunnel. He also constructed the Great Western Railway with its numerous branches, bridges, viaducts, and tunnels, and the South Devon and Cornwall Railway, with its stupendous Albert Bridge over the Tamar. In addition to railway engineering he took a leading part in the development of ocean steam navigation, designing the Great Western, the Great Britain , and the Great Eastern. He also designed and built the Monkwearmouth Docks, and was engaged in works of a like nature at Bristol, Plymouth, Brentford, &c. He was elected i6 a F.R.S. in 1830, and received the honorary degree of D.C.L. from Oxford in 1857. Lent by H. Marc Brunel, Esq. 10 . George Stephenson. J. Lucas. The name of this eminent Engineer, and that of his son, Robert, will ever remain identified with the greatest mechanical revolution effected since the discoveries of James Watt. He was born at Wylam, near Newcastle, and spent all his leisure time in working out the great problem of his life. Beginning as a pit engine-boy, his light did not long remain unseen, so that he was advanced from position to position. His first locomotive was constructed in 1814, and his first railway at Hetton. He ultimately took the lead in railway construction and died in 1848 after a life of manly simplicity of character. He declined the honour of knighthood.

He entered Parliament at the age of twenty- five, and on the succession of his father to the earldom, two years afterwards, took the courtesy title of Lord Naas. Under the first Derby administra- tion he became Chief Secretary for Ireland without a seat in the Cabinet. He was then returned M.P. for Coleraine, and in the following December quitted office with the Ministry. In the second Derby administration he assumed the same office and quitted it the following year. He returned to the post for the third time in 1866, this time as a member of the Cabinet. A year afterwards he succeeded his father as Earl of Mayo. In November, 1868, he was appointed Viceroy to India. Soon after his arrival in India he had an important interview at Umballa with Shere Ali, Ameer of Afghanistan. In January, 1872, he visited the Camp of Exercise at Delhi, received the King of Siam at Calcutta, and before the end of the month sailed on a tour of observa- tion to British Burmah, the Andaman Islands, and Orissa, from which he was doomed never to return alive. At Port Blair, a convict station in the Andamans, Shere Ali was detained in custody, but managed to assassinate the Earl on the 8th of February, 1872. His body was brought to Ireland and honoured with a State funeral, at Dublin, on the 25th of April of the same year. Lent by The Committee of White’s Club. 24 . Thomas Carlyle. T. Tait.

Lent by The Committee of White’s Club. 33 . “Victoria Regina.’’ Her Majesty Receiving the News of Her Accession to the Throne. H. T. Wells, R.A. On the 20th of June, 1837, King William IV died. The Archbishop of Canterbury and the Lord Chamberlain, accompanied by Sir Henry Halford, the King’s physician, arrived at Kensington Palace at a very early hour with the announcement of her accession to the Throne of Great Britain and Ireland. The feelings with which Her Majesty received the intelligence may be more easily felt than described. Only eighteen years of age, gentle in disposition, approached at an early hour with information of such vital importance, cannot but have created in her young heart feelings that can- never be realized by those born in humbler life. Yet Her Majesty, it is said, maintained her composure and self-possession in a most remarkable degree. Later in the day (the Lord Chancellor having administered the oath) she took her seat at the Council Chamber, and, in a sweet young voice, trembling with emotion, spoke as follows: — “ The severe and afflicting loss which the nation has sustained by the death of His Majesty, my beloved uncle, has devolved on me the duty of administering the government of this empire. This awful responsibility is imposed on me so suddenly, and at so early a period of my life, that I should feel myself utterly oppressed by the burden, were I not sustained by the hope that Divine Providence, which has called me to this work, will give me strength for the performance of it, and that I shall find in the purity of my intentions, and in my zeal for the public welfare, that support, and those resources, which usually belong to a more mature age and to long experience.” At such a period as the present, and amid the many manifestations of loyalty and goodwill, it is pleasant to recall such words of trustful devotion, and to know that that support for which she prayed has maintained Her throughout, and that Her people are even now more loyal than at the dawn of Her Long Eventful Reign.

The painful circumstances which surround, even to the present day, the long chain of incidents of which the gallant heroes forged the last link with their lives, and the noble endeavours that were made to solve the great mystery, are too well known to need repetition, even in the most succinct form, here. The story as told by the above picture “ adorns a tale ” of unprecedented suffering and great devotion to the elucidation of scientific research. Lent by W. Thomas Smith, Esq. 41 . Admiral Sir W. Edward Parry. Rear-Admiral Sir William Edward Parry, F.R.S., D.C.L., &c., was born at Bath in 1790. Entering the Navy in 1803, he accompanied Sir John Ross, as second in command, in his first attempt to discover the North-West Passage. Captain Parry afterwards commanded several other expeditions of a similiar kind, the nature of the ice on each occasion obliging him to return. He was knighted in 1829, and from 1830 to 1835 lived at Port Stephens in New South Wales as Commissioner of the Australian Agricultural Company. His task was no light one ; but aided by his wife he succeeded in overcoming them. He died at Ems, in Germany, in 1855, and was buried in the Mausoleum at Greenwich. Lent by Mrs. Coote. 22 42.

Ross, who was nephew of Sir John Ross, the distinguished navigator, was born in London in 1800, and entered the Navy at twelve years of age, when he accompanied his uncle in the first of his two voyages in search of the North-West Passage, after which he accompanied Parry in his three voyages to the Arctic regions. He became Post-Captain in 1834— promoted for his able services during his uncle’s second voyage. In 1839 his most remarkable expedition, which lasted four years, was undertaken : this was to the Antarctic Ocean. He commanded the “ Erebus,” and was accompanied by Crozier, who was commander of the “ Terror.” Much valuable scientific knowledge was the result— Magnetism, Meteorology, Zoology, &c., being the fruits of the Expedition. Of these discoveries, Sir James published a full account, for which he was knighted and created D.C.L. Oxford. Many honours had been previously bestowed upon him, amongst which may be named F.R.S., F.L.S., F.R.A.S., and F.R.G.S. He also received the Royal Geographical Society’s Gold Medal in 1841. Seven years subsequently he undertook a search for Sir John Franklin, but failed in the attempt. He died 3rd April, 1862. Lent by The Rev. James C. Ross. 44 .

He is known as an opponent of the writers of the Tracts for the Times , was the author of Evidences of Christianity , &c., and his tenure of office as Archbishop will be memorable by the revival of the synodical powers of the two Houses of Convocation of Canterbury and York.

From the age of 15 years, till the end of his life, he was esteemed by the rich and poor alike. He established various beneficient organisations connected with the Church, from which much good has been obtained by the humbler classes. He died at Mentone in 1892 ; but was brought to England and buried in Norwood Cemetery. Lent by the Pastor and Deacons of the Metropolitan Tabernacle, Newington, S.E. 52 . Professor Huxley, F.R.S.

Arthur Wellesley, first Duke of Wellington, K.G., fifth son of Richard, first Earl of Mornington. Born in Ireland ; was educated at Eton and sub- sequently at Angiers, in France ; and received his first commission as an ensign in the 73rd regiment of Foot in 1787. The military career of this illustrious hero is too renowned to render any detailed account of it requisite in this Catalogue. After 1818, Wellington turned his attention to politics, and in 1828 was called upon by George IV. to form an administration. His opposition to Reform made him very unpopular, and he resigned office in 1830. He returned to power from November 1834 to April 1835, during the absence of Sir Robert Peel, under whom he served as Foreign Secretary, and 24 in 1841 became a member of the Cabinet -without office, and supported the Free Trade measures of the government. On June 22nd, 1852, he made his last speech in Parliament. He died soon after, and was buried in St. Paul’s, amid great national grief, near Lord Nelson. Lent by Henry Graves & Co., Ltd. 55 . Samuel Wilberforce, Bishop of Oxford and Winchester. W. Tweedie. Samuel Wilberforce, Bishop of Oxford and afterwards of Winchester, was born at Clapham, a suburb of London, on September 7th, 1805, being a son of the well-known anti-slavery champion and philanthropist. Passing through the usual grades of promotion he became a Canon of Winchester Cathedral, and in 1844 Sub-almoner to the Queen. At 40 years of age he was appointed Bishop of Oxford, and ex officio Chancellor of the Order of the Garter. Lord High Almoner to the Queen followed in 1847. h e P ut forth those extravagant claims for the Church which in their essence are identical with those of Hildebrand. He held an unfriendly position towards Dissenters, but was even more hostile to members of the low and broad Church parties. His claims to the primacy were never acknowledged, but in 1869 he was translated to the see of Winchester. Dr. Wilberforce was a man of singular versatility, and in the House of Peers let his voice be heard on all subjects with energy and earnestness. “ He had the keenest relish for out-of-door life and all the delights of summer air and landscape beauty.” His death was sad in the extreme, being killed by a fall from his horse while riding in company with Earl Granville, near Dorking, July 19th, 1873.

Queen Victoria, launched 1843, “The Victoria and Albert” — Admiral Sir William Symonds, K.C.B., F.R.S. “ This year, 1843, the Royal Steam-Yacht “Victoria and Albert” (now the “Osborne”) was launched at Pembroke by the Surveyor. She was built, decorated, and prepared for Her Majesty the Queen, in the short space of seven months from the time she was ordered, and under adverse circumstances. Her keel was laid on the Prince of Wales’ birthday, 9th of November, 1842 ; a copper box of coins of the realm being placed with due ceremony in the stern-post. Her length was 200 ft., by only 33 beam, tonnage 1034. She had a mahogany deck, joined together by Jeffreys’ Marine Glue. The par- titions were lined with thick felt to deaden the vibrations of the Engines, which were contracted to the smallest possible space. All the steerage was left for the accommodation of the Queen ; and the officers and men being sent forward, 100 tons of lead and water were put in at the stern to ballast the unusual weight at the head, and give the necessary stability. The furniture was transferred from the old Royal George Yacht. Her engines, were by Maudsley. A patent steering apparatus was used ; and Sir George Cockburn said, “he was never on board a vessel that steered better;” ‘however, at first it was pretended that the Yacht steered wild, and I” “was sent for, in company with the Rattler, and Black Eagle, to” “report on her. On the first day I discovered what was the matter with ” “the rudder. She was docked at Pembroke, and by a most trifling” “ expedient, was made to steer perfectly.” The Queen, before visiting the French Coast to meet Louis Philippe, made a trip to the West of England. Sir William Symonds was of course highly gratified when Her Majesty called him to her side at Plymouth, and complimented him on the vessel’s excellent qualities; “So clean — and no noise, no motion, yet so rapid. She is not to be surpassed We are much pleased, Sir William.” The Prince was also loud in her praise.” From Memoirs of the Life and Services of Rear-Admiral Sir William Symonds, K.C.B., F.R.S.

Longfellow’s poem, “ The Discovery of the North Cape,” supplied subjects for the panels, the first of which shows Ohthere discussing his projected voyage, the next a walrus hunt, and lastly 30 him offering a walrus tusk to the king. The base of the cup is composed of Norwegian scrollwork, on the lid, walrus, narwhal and fish are represented swimming, and on the top is a Viking ship with gold sails and rigging. 508 . The Royal Monogram. Formed of red feathers, encircled by a wreath of Royal Hawaiian yellow and green feathers. The whole enclosed in a plush and gilt frame ornamented with the English and Hawaiian arms in enamel and gilt stars, each with eight points symbolical of the eight principal islands of Hawaii. The Royal yellow feathers are from the 000 or Royal bird, and are the same as used in the formation of the State cloak. The birds are black and possess only one yellow feather under each wing. They are caught and the feathers are picked out, the bird being then released so that the feathers may grow again. The green and red feathers are from other birds the use of whose plumage is confined to Royal personages. The Jubilee gift of Her Majesty the Queen of Hawaii. 509 . A Circular Plaque of Crown Derby Porcelain. In the centre of the Plaque is a portrait of Her Majesty the Queen, and around the rim is the following quotation from a speech of His Royal Highness the Prince Consort: — “So man is approaching a more complete fulfilment of that great and sacred mission which he has to perform in this world. His reason being created after the image of God, he has to use it to discover the laws by which the Almighty governs his creation, and by making these laws his standard of action, to conquer nature to his use, himself a divine instrument.” At the back of the Plaque is an inscription similar to that used under the foot of each vase. 510 . Two Vases with Covers of Crown Derby Porcelain. In the centre of each Vase is a panel in which are heads representing Painting, Sculpture, Poetry and Music. The Covers, which are perforated, are surmounted by the Imperial Crown. The ground work of the Vase is of mazarine blue, with a lighter tint in parts. Underneath the foot of each Vase is the following inscription in gold letters : “ This Vase (together with No. 509), was presented by ladies of Derby to Victoria by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, Queen, Defender of the Faith, to commemorate the 50th year of Her Majesty’s reign, June 21st, 1887.” 511 .

His Royal Highness, first cousin to Her Most Gracious Majesty the Queen, was born in 1819, being the son of Adolphus Frederick, Duke of Cambridge. He succeeded to the title in 1850. At the early age of eighteen he entered the Army and was appointed Commander-in-Chief in 1856, which he held for the long period of 40 years. H.R.H. commanded a division of Highlanders and Guards during the Crimean Campaign, 1854-5, an d led his troops at the battles of Alma and Inkerman with conspicuous coolness and intrepidity.

The many incidents in the Great War waged by England, France and Turkey, against Russia, and the year of constant hardships before the walls of Sevastopol which were suffered by the combined forces, when they died in hundreds of cold, sickness and want, induces the feeling that many times and oft must the generals of the Allied forces have met to discuss how best to make an end of the great citadel before them.

As a Major-General, the Earl of Cardigan took command of the Light Cavalry Brigade in the Crimean War (1854-5), distinguishing himself by great bravery in the famous charge of the Six Hundred, whom he led, and so graphically described by Tennyson : — “ Half-a-league — half-a-league — half-a-league onward.” He was soon after nominated K.C.B. He died at Deane Park, Northampton- shire, 28th March, 1868, from the effects of a fall from his horse a few days before. Lent by The Countess of Cadogan and Lancastre. 715a.

For these services he was made a K.C.B. in 1842, received the thanks of Parliament, and an annuity of ,£"1,000 from the East India Company. Lent by the East India Company. 717 . Vicount Ranelagh, K.C.B. Henry T. Wells, R.A. Lord Ranelagh was the foremost of the pioneers of “ The Volunteer Move- ment,” 1859.

He was gazetted Major- Commandant, 14th October, 1859, and commanded the regiment until his death in November, 1885. He was gazetted K.C.B. on the Queen’s Birthday, 1881, in recognition of his services in connection with the Volunteer Force. He organised the First Volunteer Easter Monday Review at Brighton, which has since developed into the Easter and Autumn Manoeuvres, arranged by the Authorities. Lent by Col. Horace W.

The British troops having fought their way to Cabul and Candahar in the Autumn of 1879, Yakub Khan, son of Shere Ali, Ameer, of Afghanistan, was sent a prisoner to India. In the following year a British army was defeated near Kandahar by Ayub Khan, who was one of the claimants to the Afghan throne, but this disaster was amply revenged by General Roberts in 1880, when Abdur Rahman Khan was recognised as Ameer, and the British withdrew from the country.

Was educated at Foyle College, Londonderry, and at Haileybury, and in 1829 went out to India, 65 where his brilliant abilities were first displayed in the capacity of Com- missioner of the provinces added to the Indian Empire after the first Sikh War. On the annexation of the Punjab in 1849, he was appointed Com- missioner of that province, and by his admirable reorganisation so completely reconciled the natives to British rule that they remained faithful throughout the Mutiny of 1857. For these services Lawrence was rewarded with a ' baronetcy and the Grand Cross of the Bath, and 1863 succeeded Lord Elgin as Governor-General of India. On his retirement in i86g he was raised to the peerage as Baron Lawrence of the Punjab. After his return to England, Lord Lawrence took an active interest in educational questions, and was Chairman of the London School Board from 1870-1873. Lent by Col. H. Lawrence. 725 .

Born at Bishopwearmouth ; was educated at Charterhouse, and called to the bar in 1813, but two years later entered the Army and served in the first Burmese War, his History of the A va Campaigns appearing two years later. He distinguished himself in the Afghan War in 1842, fought through the Sikh Wars, 1845-48, and commanded a Division in the Persian War in 1856. On the outbreak of the Indian Mutiny he was chosen to com- mand the column which was to relieve Lucknow, and if possible Cawnpore. After a series of bloody engagements he effected both, thus giving the first decisive check to the Mutiny, but he died shortly afterwards of dysentery, at Lucknow, worn out by anxiety and toil.

On the annexation of Oude in 1856, Sir Henry became Chief Commissioner of that kingdom, and went to Lucknow, which he nobly defended when the Mutiny broke out in the following year. He was mortally wounded by a shell, July 2nd, 1857, and died two days afterwards. A marble statue was erected to him in St. Paul’s Cathedral, and a baronetcy was conferred on his son.

It now became necessary to take this position by storm — under cover of the fire of a battery of screw guns, and supported by a portion of the 2nd Gourkhas and 23rd Pioneers, the Highlanders, responding with alacrity to their leaders’ call, darted forward and drove the enemy from the entrenchments at the point of the bayonet.” — Extract from Forty Years in India.

Fearless under all circumstances, and never shirking when called to the fulfilment of what he considered duty. He was loved by all classes from our most Gracious Queen to the poorest waif for whom his heart ever bled — and died honoured and regretted by the country. The incident here represented may be stated in these words : “ As far as can be ascertained General Gordon was in Government House, Khartoum, when, hearing an un- usual commotion in the street, he — perhaps hoping that the British had really arrived at last to rescue him — advanced to the door and was killed on the threshold.” The gates of the city had been treacherously opened to the Mahdi’s troops by Faragh Pasha, whose life Gordon had on one occasion saved after he had been condemned to death for treason. Lent by Geo. W. Joy, Esq. 736. “ Running the Gauntlet.” S.S. “ Safieh ” on the Nile. On the 1st February, Lord Charles Beresford left Aboo Krou in General Gordon’s steamer Safieh, taking two Gardner guns, detachments of Blue Jackets, Mounted Infantry, and some Natives. The steamer went on successfully until she was about three miles from where Sir Charles Wilson 67 and his party had been wrecked by the treachery of the pilots on going to the relief of Gordon, when she was partially disabled by a round shot from the enemy which went through the boiler. During the night which succeeded, the damage was rapidly repaired when he immediately steamed to the assistance of Wilson whom with all his party he embarked and saved. The subject of the picture is the action which took place between the Sajieh and Fort El Hareshi, commanded by the Amir Nuraga. Lent by Lord Chas. Beresford. 737. Zereba at Abu Klea. General Stewart in his report to Lord Wolseley wrote: — “ It has been my duty to command a force from which exceptional hardships, and, it may be added, exceptional fighting has been called for.” Unfortunately the Abu Klea victory was only secured at a heavy cost of British blood in officers and men. The picture represents a gathering of the chief officers on the morning of battle whose names will be found on the Key attached below. Lent by Major R. J. Beech. 738. Night Charge of Kassassin. R. Caton Woodville. The state of Egypt in 1882 when the native army under Arabi Pasha was in revolt against the authority of the Khedive, caused considerable uneasiness to Great Britain as the highway to India and other British interests. The Government, under the premiership of Mr. Gladstone, sent out an army under SirGarnet Wolseley whoadvanced upon Cairo from Ismailia, on the Suez Canal, and after a preliminary night skirmish at Kassassin completely routed Arabi’s forces at Tel El Kebir.

The ioth Hussars were stopped at Suakin on their way home from India, and provided with horses. The Marines, the Hussars, and the Irish Fusiliers were landed and moved to Fort Baker, that in the morning they might march to El Teb, for the battle was to take place on the ground which proved so fatal to Baker and Moncrieff. Great courage was exhibited on both sides. The battle lasted between three and four hours ; when the loud cheers of the Gordon Highlanders, and a blast from their bagpipes, told that the ever valiant British were once more victorious. Lent by The Committee of the Savage Club. 745. The Last Stand of the 24TH at Isandhlana. Chas. E. Fripp. The Zulu campaign remains fresh in the memory of most of the present generation. At the cost of much British blood, and the sacrifice of many lives on both sides, the subjugation of the Zulus was made complete. Cetawayo, their chief, having been captured at Ulundi, was brought as a prisoner to this country, made much of, and ultimately died in captivity. The picture presents to us the British camp surprised by an overwhelming force of the enemy at Isandhlana, in which attack the 24th were almost totally annihilated. In 1887 the territory was annexed to the British Empire. It will be remembered that it was during the Zulu campaign that the young Prince Imperial of France lost his life on a scouting expedition in which he took part as a volunteer, much to the grief of our own Queen, who was, with the rest of the Royal Family, greatly attached to him.

Entered the service of the East India Company in 1802 ; was present at the sieges of Deeg and Bhurtpore in 1805 ; and greatly dis- tinguished himself in the Burmese War in 1821. In the Afghan War of 1841 he had command of the armies west of the Indus, and having effected the relief of Sir Robert Sale at Jellalabadin 1842, recovered Cabul. In 1844 he became a member of the Supreme Council of India, and in 1858 was nominated a Director of the East India Company. He was made a Field-Marshal in 1870, installed Constable of the Tower of London in 1871, and in the following year created a baronet. Lent by the Secretary of State for India. 69 747 . The Wreck of the Birkenhead. T. M. Hemy. The “ Birkenhead ’’ had on board nearly five-hundred officers and men who met their doom with the bravery of true British heroes, which made a profound impression in England, and indeed wherever the details of the disaster were read. The then King of Prussia was so much struck by the heroic conduct of the soldiers and sailors on board, that he caused the splendid story of iron discipline and perfect duty to be read aloud at the head of every regiment in his service. 748. The Last Stand of the 44 TH. Michael Angelo Hayes. The British Government having reason to feel suspicious relative to the intentions of Russia upon our Indian Empire was naturally anxious to have on the throne of Afghanistan a monarch friendly to English interests. Dost- Mahommed, the usurper, had shown very unequivocally his aversion to the British. Hence their interference in 1839, when they sent a force to depose Him and re-establish Shah-Soojah on the Afghan throne. The expedition proving successful a portion of the army was withdrawn, and everything for a time seemed satisfactory, the remaining soldiers being allowed to send for their wives and children. The Afghans, however, disliking the government of foreign arms, rose in rebellion, and completely surrounded the British forces. Akbar Khan, son of Dost Mahommed, had already occupied the Khyber Pass, which was the only available road to Hindostan. It was agreed by General Elphinstone and Akbar to evacuate the country, and a conference was summoned, resulting in the murder of Sir Wm. MacNaughton and several officers. The retreat of the British was immediately commenced (January 6th, 1842), consisting of about 4,500 soldiers and 12,000 followers, besides women and children, through a rugged and mountainous country, in most severe weather, and in face of a cruel and blood-thirsty enemy. Before three days’ march had been accomplished 3,000 had perished by starvation and the hands of the foe, increasing day by day as they pushed on towards Jelalabad. On January 13th a single man, Dr. Bryden, mounted on a miserable horse, was seen approaching the city’s walls — the only one of the force which had left Cabul only a week before. Lent by Messrs.

A few words will suffice to introduce the Visitor to that portion of the Exhibition which it has been a pleasure to have under my special charge. No period of English History has witnessed a more striking manifestation of that inborn love of Sport so characteristic of the British Race, as that which it is the purport of the Victorian Era Exhibition to commemorate. In no phase of the national life during Queen Victoria’s reign, has there been a greater development than in that which is devoted to the pursuit of athletics. It is not my intention in writing these lines by way of a preface to attempt to give even a brief resume of the Sport of the Victorian Era. The Catalogue of the objects exhibited will, I hope, contain matter which in a measure may do this, and furnish information enabling the reader to obtain a fair idea of the progress of events in the period covered ; while, if this little volume should also serve as a work of reference on occasion, my effort will not have been wasted. A complete record illustrative of the History of Sport since Her Majesty’s accession in 1837 would afford a wealth of material, sufficient probably to fill the whole of the space at the command of the Directors. As, however, they very wisely determined that the Exhibition should not be limited in its scope, but should be general in its character, so as to be typical as far as possible of the progress and prosperity achieved by the people under the wise and beneficent rule of our Queen, the question of space has had to be borne in mind during the process of selecting objects suitable for the 6 * 76 building assigned to Sports and Pastimes. Within this limitation an endeavour has been made to bring together a collection of Pictures, Souvenirs, Memorials, Relics and other objects possessing either a personal interest or relating to some of the more prominent events in divers branches of Athletics and Sport. I trust that the result will not altogether fail to recall some of the cherished associations of the past, connected as they are in many instances with deeds which have done not a little to foster courage, patience, tenacity, discipline, spirit, and enterprise in the British character. Among the branches of Sport represented, mention may be particularly made of the following : — The Turf, attention having been mainly directed to the classic Derby. As regards the Derby of 1838, won by Sir Gilbert Heathcote’s Amato, the first run after the Queen’s accession, the race is especially to be remembered since it was on this occasion that the Railway, perhaps the chief instrument in creating that wondrous interest in sport and athletics which now prevails throughout the country, was first used by Londoners for reaching the Race Course. It is recorded that on that Derby morning, ten times a greater number of persons presented themselves at Nine Elms, eager for the railway trip to Kingston, than could possibly be conveyed by train. From Kingston the journey to the Race Course was made by road. Rowing, especially that magnificent example of true Sport — the University Boat Race; Cricket, from the days of Fuller Pilch, Alfred Mynn and George Parr to W. G. Grace and Abel ; Football, a game which, practically non-existent as a national pastime in 1837, has now secured such an extraordinary hold over the people, as evidenced by the fact of an assemblage of 70,000 spectators on a single afternoon to witness a “ final cup tie ” ; Athletics, illustrated mainly by loans from such staunch upholders of the best side of sport as the Amateur Athletic Association, and the London Athletic Club; the Prize Ring, that essentially British institution, which sixty years ago flourished and was popular with all classes, by whom it was looked upon as typical of our method of settling differences, and over the decadence and disappearance of which many still mourn, though few lovers of worthy sport will desire its resurrection ; and 77 Swimming, the importance of teaching which to a maritime nation like ourselves cannot be too strongly and widely insisted upon. It is with peculiar gratification that I draw attention to the fine exhibits of the Amateur Swimming Association of Great Britain, the London Water Polo League, and the Middlesex County Water Polo Association, bodies which have done much to promote and encourage the art of swimming. Aquatics are further represented by a facsimile of the Chart used by Captain Matthew Webb during his extraordinary swim from Dover to Calais in 21 hours, 45 minutes on August 24th and .25th, 1875. It has been specially reproduced by permission of the authorities of the British Museum, where the original is preserved, and serves to recall a memorable feat of pluck and endurance. The fine collection of skating trophies lent by the National Skating Association, of which Mr. Hayes Fisher, M.P., is President, makes one regret that the opportunities of indulging in that invigorating winter pastime in this country are so few and far between. Before concluding this short introduction, it is a pleasure and a duty to say that whatever measure of popularity the Sports Sub- Section of the Victorian Era Exhibition may achieve is due to the kind co-operation of those noblemen and gentlemen who have shown their practical interest in making it a success by coming forward and generously lending the Directors the objects in their posession — to one and all of whom my sincere thanks are tendered. I would specially desire to acknowledge the aid received from Mr. C. H. McQueen, who has been most energetic in helping to bring together the complete series of Derby Winners of the Victorian Era, which can be justly regarded as a distinguishing feature of the Section, and who has further given me assistance in the preparation of the portion of this Catalogue relating to the Turf. I must also express my sense of the courtesy of the Proprietors of the Sportsman , who have placed at my disposal much valuable information. To Mr. Guy Nickalls, Captain of the Leander Rowing Club, I am considerably indebted for the great personal interest he has taken in co-operating with me in Rowing matters, and in this connection I would also mention Mr. W. B. Woodgate, Mr. G. C. 78 Treherne, Mr. W. B. Close, the Oxford and Cambridge University Boat Clubs and the Thames Rowing Club. As regards Football, it would have been impossible, without the cordial assistance of Mr. G. Rowland Hill, the Honorary Secretary of the Rugby Football Union, to have brought together so complete and representative a collection illustrative of that grand game. To Mr. C. W. Alcock, my hearty thanks are due for the readiness with which he supported the endeavour to exemplify the National Summer Game of Cricket, while acknowledgment is also made to Mr. Luff, of John Wisden & Co., a house so well known in the Cricket world, for at once acceding to my request that he should exhibit his interesting collection of bats wielded by famous Cricketers, and other relics which he has so wisely preserved. Nor can I close without expressing thanks to Mr. E. T. Sachs, who may be regarded as a Pioneer of Lacrosse in this country, and especially to Colonel Malet, who has not only lent many of the objects relating to coaching, in which form of sport he is a recognized authority, but who has also taken an active personal part in helping me. Sir George Birdwood, K.C.I.E., and my other colleagues of the Honorary Committee of Advice of the Historic and Commemorative Section, who entrusted me with the management of the Sports Division, have greatly facilitated the task by many valuable suggestions and by the readiness and promptness with which they have seconded my efforts, while Mr. Walter Horsley, our indefatigable Hon. Secretary, has shared much of the work with me. To all of them I return my best thanks. Finally I desire to place on record my appreciation of the courtesy and goodwill which I have received from the Directors in the accomplishment of this undertaking. Charles E.

At the sale of his effects in January, 1889, two pairs of whips brought 20 guineas, while 26 guineas were paid for two coach-horses. The picture immediately beneath represents his celebrated drive to Brighton and back which he undertook to do in 8 hours, and which he accomplished in 7 hours 50 minutes. Lent by W. Godden, Esq. 9. Coach Match against Time. H. Bird . The Galopping Stage, “Old Times,” Passing Lowfield Heath, pace 20 Miles an Hour. On July 18th, r888, the Brighton Coach, “ Old Times,” was driven from the “ White Horse Cellars ” to Brighton and back for the wager of ^1,000 to £500 against it being accomplished in 8 hours. The road was cleared in front of the starting place, and the veteran whip James Selby gave orders to “ let go ” at 10 o’clock precisely. The Coach arrived at the “Old Ship” Brighton, 1.56-10, having accomplished the journey just under 4 hours. The stay at Brighton was momentary ; the horses were merely turned round. Ultimately the Coach arrived at Piccadilly at 5.50, or 10 minutes under the stipulated time, and 40 minutes within the record. The occupants of the Coach were: J. W. Selby (Whip) ; H. L. Beckett; Carleton Blyth ; A. S. Broadwood ; William P. Cosier; A. F. McAdam ; W. J. Godden (Guard). Lent by F. C. McQueen, Esq. 10. Driving Whip. Used by James Selby. Lent by W. Godden, Esq. 11.

Berrington, known as “ Old Frank,” celebrated guard of the “ Peveril of the Peak ” coach, running from London to Manchester sixty years ago, and was afterwards played upon by 82 his son, Luke Berrington, guard of the famous coach “Red Rover,” to Brighton, in 1834, an d t0 other coaches to Gloucester, Portsmouth, Lincoln, and Tunbridge Wells, and was used for some years subsequently by the Band Master of the Duke of Beaufort’s Chamber Band at Badminton. The Bugle stands in E flat, and is in excellent tune. It was presented by L. Berrington, the guard referred to, to the present contributor, who was the guard of the “ Old Times ” Brighton Stage.

Until 1823 the members met two days in the year at the “ White Hart Inn,” at Benson, in Oxfordshire, and two days at the “ Black Dog ” at Bedfont, fourteen miles from London. After 1823 the meeting was confined to Bedfont alone. The club ceased to exist in 1853-4. Of other driving clubs at this time there were the four-horse club, existing from 1808 to 1826 : The “ R.D.C.,” or Richmond Driving Club, 1838 ; the present “ F.H.D.C.,” or Four-in-hand Driving Club was started in 1856 ; and the “ C.C.” or Coaching Club in 1870. The interesting relic of the “B.D.C.,” in the shape of a Glass Cup, here exhibited, is lent by Mr. Grove, and has remained in his house since the “ slap-up ” days of that Club when Mr. Harrison was the president, and it was at his house that the members met before starting for Bedfont.

In 1865, “ Gladiateur ” made a clean sweep of the three great three-year- old prizes in England, besides winning the Grand Prix, and such minor fry as the Drawing Room at Goodwood, the Doncaster Stakes, the Newmarket Derby, and the Grand Prix du Prince Imperial at Paris in the Autumn, during which series of victories the French Champion was only once fairly extended, namely by “Archimedes” in the Two Thousand, and once only during his three-year-old career was he beaten, when he essayed the Cambridgeshire hill under the hopeless weight of gst. i2lbs.” — Badminton.

Castle, Esq. * First French bred horse that won, 88 65. 1867. “ Hermit.” R. Nightingale. Right Hon. Henry Chaplin; Sire, “ Newminster”; Dam, “ Seclusion ” ; Trainer, Bloss ; Jockey, J. Daley; 30 Starters; Betting, 66 to 1. Hermit started at the very outside price of 1,000 to 15 against, and won easily by two lengths. “In 1867 ‘ Hermit’ ran in nine races, four of which he won. After being the winter favourite for the Derby at very short odds, he was, a few days before the race, driven to a very outside price owing to having burst a blood-vessel in his head while at exercise. A remarkable fact is that, though Hermit was trained thoroughly and tried roughly, he was eased in consequence of his mishap ; but the cold weather on the day of the race, and a heavy fall of snow during the race, is said by many to have been the cause of the weak vessel not giving way. This was the most sensational Derby ever run, owing to this and to the fact of ^120,000 being won by the owner and friends, and an equal sum being lost by one man.” — Badminton. Lent by Rt. Hon. Hy. Chaplin, M.P. 66. 1868.- “ Blue Gown.” H. Hall. Owner, Sir J. Hawley, Bart. ; Sire, “ Beadsman ” ; Dam, “ Bas Bleu” ; Trainer, J. Porter; Jockey, Wells ; 18 Starters. The ignominious defeat of the Marquis of Hastings’ mare, “ Lady Elizabeth,” first favourite, gave rise to more than usual disputes on “ settling day.” Admiral Rous writes that when the Days discovered she had lost her form, “ they reversed a commission to back her for the One Thousand Guineas Stakes at Newmarket, and they declared that Lord Hastings would not bring her out before the Derby, on which he stood to win a great stake. I am imformed that when Lord Hastings went to Danebury to see her gallop, they made excuses for her not to appear. If he had seen her move, the bubble would have burst ; but the touts reported she was going like a bird. She has never been able to gallop the whole year. Lord Hastings has been shamefully deceived.” Lord Hastings, in reply, denied that any deception had been practised on him, and stated that his second horse, the Earl, had been scratched by his own express desire and authority. This statement was confirmed by Henry Padwick. Lent by John Porter, Esq. 67. 1869. “ Pretender.” H. Hall. Owner, J. Johnstone, Esq.; Sire, “Adventurer”; Dam, “ Ferina ” ; Trainer, Thos.

Henley Regatta, 1877 . Walter Field. Boats dropping down to stations. The view is taken from just below Phyllis Court Gardens, looking up the river towards the town with its old church and bridge, the well-known inns the Angel and the Red Lion , with the Jesus College, Cambridge, and London Rowing Club flags hanging out of the windows, and the Grand Stand. The time is the interval between the races, when the boats are dropping down to their stations. On the left we see the “Jesus eight,” ard above it on the towing- path stands the Rev. E. Warre, of Eton (now head master of Eton College), waiting for his boys (whom we see higher up the river) to run down to the start. In the boat with the awning coming down stream is Mr. Justice J. W. Chitty (now Sir J. W. Chitty), the University umpire, with Toni Hughes (author of “ Tom Brown’s Schooldays,”) in the stern. In the punt behind them are Trower, Bob Leslie, Corrie, and Playford. The figure standing up in the boat, in the foreground, in the middle of the picture, is Darbishire, and in the samej^oat is E. B. Michell, in a scarlet coat, the Magdalen uniform. In the front boat (a pair-oar outrigger) are the portraits of F. Willan (Umpire of the Uuiversity Boat Race, and Umpire at Henley Regatta), and W. B. Woodgate, a good example of the thorough study of the character of rowing men and their equipments, the raison d'etre, so to speak, of the whole picture. Above Woodgate is Finch, and just above him J. Chambers in blue ; in a boat, a little to the right, is Walter Bovill, and next to him Sir Patrick Colquhoun (instituter of the “ Colquhoun Sculls ” at Cambridge) ; the man standing lighting his pipe is Herbert Steward, Secretary of the Leander Rowing Club. Portraits of other rowing men are easily to be distinguished, viz., F. Gulston, Rev. R. Risley, Farie, J. B. Close, J. H. D. Goldie, R. Cobb, E. A. Clowes, &c. Two well-known professionals will also be identified, Harry Kelley (sculler), in the distance, just above Mr. Darbishire’s head ; and J. H. Clasper (boat builder), builder of both the boats used this year at the Oxford and Cambridge Race, 1897, punting on the right. Lent by the Artist. 130 453. Henley Regatta, 1896 .

'I No. 7 of the Oxford boat broke his oar. In the race of 1859 the Cambridge boat sank off Barnes ; and although she had been filling gradually in the rough water, and the crew knew perfectly well what was in store for them, every man continued to row steadily and coolly until i37 she absolutely went down under them. Had the race lasted a few minutes longer the Oxford boat would have met with a similar fate. Lord Justice A. L. Smith was the only man in the Cambridge eight who could not swim when the boat sank in 1859. In 1872 the race was rowed in a snowstorm ; one year it took place when the river was in flood and the towing path submerged ; and on one occasion it was postponed on account of fog. The 1872 race was the last race rowed on fixed seats. The race is further memorable from the fact that the Cambridge stroke’s (Goldie) upper back stay bolt broke at Hammersmith and the crew practically carried him the rest of the way : Goldie’s presence of mind and coolness saved the day. In 1886 Oxford led at Barnes Bridge by two lengths, and then Cambridge stroked by F. I. Pitman, got up and won by two-thirds of a length. In 1893 Oxford won in record time — 18 min. 45^ sec. This time was never equalled over the course until 1897, when Oxford, rowing a trial under very favourable conditions covered the course in 18 min. 27 sec. Last year (1896) it will be remembered, Cambridge took the lead from the start, and led for over eighteen minutes, until some time after Barnes Bridge was reached. The victory of Oxford was almost, if not quite, the most sensational in the history of the race. At the Dinner given on Monday May 31st, 1897, t0 the four ‘ Varsity ’ oars on the Judicial Bench, about 120 Old Rowing Blues were present. No fewer than 34 of those present were Clergymen, and among them were Bishops, Deans, and other dignitaries of the Church. 524.

The celebrated race in which seven Oxford oarsmen defeated Cambridge was not the Boat-race, but was a heat at Henley. An old Blue, Mr. T. A. Cook, who rowed for Oxford in 1889, gives the following explanation of the IQ occurence in Cassell's Magazine : “On that memorable day Menzies, the stroke, fell ill the hour before the race. Cambridge demurred to any sub- stitute, so No. 7 (the brother of Tom Hughes) went stroke in the Oxford boat, bow took his place and left his own seat vacant, and the Dark Blue crew went down with seven oars to the start against their enemies. Cam- bridge then made various offers to equalise the conditions, but it was too late, and Hughes held firm. Within a quarter of a mile it was seen that Oxford would hold her own. At the finish the * seven-oar’ won by a length, amid a scene of greater excitement than has ever been known at Henley. Alderman Randall bought the good ship when she came home, and a chair made from her timbers is in the University Barge unto this day.” See No. 543. 528. Steering Mirror, Invented and Patented by Col. A. E. Ray. This Mirror can be fixed to the stern seat of any boat. The river, the banks, boats, or any obstacles in front are clearly reflected and thus enables the rower to steer without a rudder or coxswain, and without the necessity o constantly looking behind him.

New Style of Sculling Racing Boat, with ordinary position of Sculler. Built for the Honourable R. Guinness. Lent by C. B. Lawes, Esq. Note by Mr. Lawes. - This boat has neither well to be filled nor wash boards to take the wind. The sluice box of boat empties itself completely at each stroke of the oarsman. The oarsman in these boats has no more liability to get wet than he has in the ordinary racing boat. “The Patent Oscillating Stretcher” is an invention for permitting the oarsman’s feet to maintain a natural position following the movement of the legs throughout the stroke on the sliding seat. No. 1 has been rowed by the inventor at Henley and at Putney in all weathers. In the ordinary Scullers’ racing boat there is a capacious well in which are placed the stretcher and the oarsman’s feet, whilst he is surrounded by wash-boards to keep the well from getting filled. In windy weather the waves fill the well notwithstanding these boards, which besides offer a large surface for wind pressure, a fact that proves oftener against the speed of the oarsman then in his favour.

Shadwell, at Henley Regatta, June, 1843, to steer the famous Oxford u Seven-oar,” which beat the Cambridge Subscription Rooms Crew by nearly a length in the final for the Grand Challenge Cup. Lent by Bernard Shadwell, Esq. “ The ‘ Seven-oar’ of 1843 was not a University match or meeting. The O.U.B.C. were entered at Henley ; Cambridge were represented by the ‘ Cambridge Rooms ’ ; but the C.U.B.C. was not officially represented by that crew. Just before the final heat, the Oxford stroke fainted, and Cambridge reasonably objected to the introduction of a substitute. The Oxonians then decided to row with seven oars. They had a wind abeam, favouring the side which was manned by only three oars. They eventually won by a length, or thereabouts.” — Badminton.

The Challenge Cup for Pair-Oars. “ Silver Goblets,” now known as the Nickalls Cup, Henley Regatta. Lent by Guy Nickalls, Esq. 581. Henley Grand Challenge Cup. The institution of Henley Regatta, in 1839, was the outcome of the various eight-oared matches which have been rowed on that part of the river during the ten years preceding. The Regatta began with one prize only, the Grand Challenge Cup, a trophy which is unique for classical design, and which is to this day the “ blue ribbon ” for amateur Clubs. ( Badminton ). The Base was added in 1896. Lent by the Leander Rowing Club. 582. Grand Challenge Cup. Thames Regatta, held at Putney. Won by the Thames Rowing Club, June 1846, 1847, & 1848. In 1843 the Thames Regatta was started, and greatly supplemented the attractions of Henley. The mistake of this regatta was the rule which made Challenge Prizes the permanent property of any crew which could win them thrice in succession. By this means the Gold Cup for eights, the piece de resistance of the regatta, passed in 1848 to the possession of the “ Thames ” Club. The regatta lingered on one year longer, shorn of its chief glory, and then died out. {Badminton). Lent by Messrs. Rhodes Co-bb, & Francis Levien. 583. “Goblets” Cup (Henley).

The ‘‘Wingfield Sculls” were founded in 1830, given by the donor, whose name they bear, to be held as a challenge prize by the best sculler of the day from Westminster to Putney, against all comers, so a silver plate in the lid of the old box which holds the silver sculls, bears testimony. About 1861 a “ Champion Badge” was instituted. It consists of a small edition of the Diamond Sculls (Henley) Challenge Prize. (See No. ). 589.

Lent by Bernard J. Angle, Esq. 645 . “ Deerfoot ” (L. Bennett). The Seneca Indian. Height, 5-ft. 11-in. Born 1837. Until the 19th of June, 1897, Deerfoot held the one-hour running record. The record is 11 miles 970 yards, said to have been accomplished by L. Bennett (“ Deerfoot ”), at Brompton, on April 3rd, 1863, in a twelve miles handicap, which was won by “ Bill ” Lang, who was receiving 100 yards start. “ Deerfoot ” finished second from scratch — less than a yard behind the winner. On that occasion Deerfoot ” was timed to cover 11 miles in 56min. 52sec., and 12 miles in 62mm. 2^sec., the figures for the hour, as previously stated, being n miles 970 yards. On February 23rd of the same year, -‘Deerfoot” undertook to run ii£ miles inside the hour, which he succeeded in doing with i6sec. to spare. Deerfoot’s Record Beaten. Fully 25,000 spectators attended the Rochdale Athletic Grounds on Saturday, 19th June, 1897, to witness F. E. Bacon’s attack upon Deerfoot’s long standing record of n miles 970 yards in the hour, made in 1863. The proprietors of the Sporting Chronicle offered the amateur ex-champion £250 and half the gate should he be successful, and in case of failure he was to receive ^100 and half the gate for having made the attempt. Bacon trained at Blackpool, and he felt very sanguine of achieving the feat. Friday brought a rainy day, and this certainly did not favour Bacon, who, under the circum- stances, had an immense task before him. Betting ruled at 5 to 4 and 6 to 4 on Bacon. It was nearly 5.45 when he set out on his journey, paced by Mullen and McFerson, the latter on his bicycle. The first mile occupied 4min. 42 2-5sec. ; two miles were reeled off in gmin. 52 sec., equalling Deer- foot’s time. Just before this Ansted joined in, and Mullen retired. Three miles were covered in I4min. 58sec., four miles in 2omin. 4 3-5sec., and at four and a half miles Mullen gave way to Watkins as pacer. Five miles were done in 25mm. i4sec., six miles 30mm. 28 2-5sec., and at seven miles Bacon just got inside W. G. George’s time, doing 35mm. 36 2-$sec. From this point the champion began to improve, covering eight miles in 40mm. 45sec. ; nine, 45mm. 56sec. ; ten, 51mm. nsec, (only 5sec. outside Cummings’ world’s record). Eleven miles were recorded in 56min. 28sec., and amidst loud and enthusiastic cheering, Bacon finished the hour with 11 miles 1,243 yards to his credit, breaking the record by 273 yards. Watkins ran from four and a half miles to the finish, all the pacemakers being on the track in the last 300 yards. Bacon was naturally done up at the finish, and fell on the track, but he was soon up again. The timekeepers were J. Catton, J. H. Hardwick, G. Sugden, J. Gorton and J. Haggerty. The record of n miles 970 yards in the hour, which Deerfoot set up, and which Bacon shattered on Saturday, was made by the Seneca Indian at the Old West London Grounds in 1863. Many attempts have since been made to pass those figures, but until Bacon’s, none of them had been successful. W. G. George, when he was an amateur, had a great ambition to break it, and in 1884 made a grand attempt. He was then considered to be the fastest 10-miler living, and a special 12 mile handicap was framed, to give him a chance of lowering Deerfoot’s record. The race took place on the London Athletic Club Grounds, and George, who ran exceedingly well, just failed, his distance being 11 miles 932 yards 9 inches. Bacon, who holds the amateur mile record of 4mm. i7sec., has long been a runner of note. In 1894 he won the One Mile and Four Miles Championships, the only two in which he com- peted, and he also secured thirty-six first and eleven second prizes. In 1895 the Mile Championship at Stamford Bridge fell to his lot, and previously he tied George’s four miles record of 19mm. 39sec. Among others, he has 152 defeated Sid Thomas, Watkins, Pearce and Crossland. Last year, with other prominent runners, he joined the ranks of the professionals, and his per- formances since then have further enhanced his reputation. 646. William Lang of Middlesbofo’, 647.

Amateur Athletic Championships in Diamond Jubilee Year, 1897. — The annual championship contests promoted by the Amateur Athletic Association took place on Saturday, 3rd July, 1897, on the grounds of the Manchester Athletic Club, Fallowfield. Although the weather was fine, the attendance did not come up to expectations, only about 3,000 spectators being present. Of the thirteen events set for decision, only four of last year’s cham- pions defended their titles, and of these three were successful in retaining them, Horgan in weight-putting, Leggatt in the long jump, and Sturgess in the walk. The last-named also secured the only record of the day by cover- ing four miles in 28 min. 24 4-5 sec., or 32 4-5 sec. better than his own previous best. Sturgess also beat the three-miles walking' record on the journey, doing 21 min. 14 sec. In the 100 Yards Race the surprise of the day came from H. J. Palmer, of the Essex Beagles, who beat H. C. Woodyatt, of the London Athletic Club, after a good race, in 10 4-5 sec., the wind being against the runners. J. W. Bradley, of Huddersfield, could not compete, owing to a breakdown during the week. The Mile proved an interesting race, A. E. Tysoe, of the Salford Harriers, the ten-mile champion, running with splendid judgment, and winning, after a good race with R. Wellin, of the Finchley Harriers. Welsh, the Scottish Champion, also started, but was badly spiked. Results : — Half-mile. — A. E. Relf, Finchley Harriers, 1 ; C. H.

J. Peall on those dates. The occasion was an All-in Match, in which Mr. Peall conceded 3,000 points start in 15,000 up, to Mr. C. Dawson, and in which Mr. Peall accomplished an achievement UNPARALLELED IN THE ANNALS OF ENGLISH BILLIARDS. He commenced a break on the evening of the 4th of November, continued it throughout the whole of the 5th, and ultimately brought it to a conclusion on the afternoon of the 6th ; the break, which had then occupied a portion of each of three consecutive days, amounting to 3 , 304 . Previous to this, the best run was 2,413, also by Mr. Peall, so that he actually beat his own, which was the World’s Record, by no fewer than 891 points. In addition to his extraordinary break, Mr. Peall earned a further record in the Match by completing the 15,000 POINTS IN 49 INNINGS, a feat which has never been approached in any other place. Upon these achievements in particular, and his many other brilliant perfor- i6o mances in general, a few of Mr. Peall’s admirers hereby express to him their admiration and tender him their heartiest congratulations.

These Chairs are all relics, having originally been in the rooms of the famous Society of Beefsteaks, of which George IV., when Prince Regent, was President. The number of members was limited strictly to twenty-four, and when His Royal Highness wished to become a member, he had to wait his turn until a vacancy occurred. The Society was founded in 1735, by one John Rich, the patentee of Covent Garden Theatre, and George Lambert the scene painter. It became fashionable for noblemen and distinguished members of the literary and dramatic professions to meet in Rich’s rooms, where they were regaled, at two o’clock, by hot steak, cooked by Rich himself. Each member had his own chair, in the centre of the back of which his initials and arms were carved. On the death of a member his chair was passed on to his successor, whose initials and arms were cut by the side of his predecessor. This Chair was used by the President, George IV. when Prince Regent and afterwards by H.R.H. the Duke of Sussex. Lent by John Foster, Esq. 753. Original Beef Steak Club Chair.
