Tae Comumitâ€" tee, however,having promised the gamc, wished to fullli its promise by bringing these two teams together hbere, and have now secured written assurances from both the Tecumsechs and the Twinâ€"Ci‘y Cluab that their teams will play ++ Waterloo Park on next Siturâ€" day, 3rd July. The Commistee are doing this to carry out the promise made in the Jubilee anuounceiments, and there will therefore be no charge for admissmon to see the game; the public will be admitted to the grounds absolutely free. A cordial invitation is extended to all who were disappointed on the 23ad to come to the game an Saturday next. _ From the high repu tation which each of these two teams has won, a first class game is expected. The Lacrosse game will te uller:t 4 a‘clock. The ovcurrence of the 23ad was the first and only occasion in the series of celebrations aud eports given from time to time by Waterloo, in which anything short of complete satisfac iou was Tven to the gublic. Oa all other occasions visitore have been moure than pleased, The failure this time has not been the fault of the Committee, and was due to causes they could not guard againet ; and they are sure that what they are now doing, at very considerâ€" able expense, to carry out cumpletely the promises contained in their proâ€" gramms=, will satisfy every one that Waterlow does not propose to permit auy cause of complaint to exist.
