THE AXEMEN’S CARNIVAL.
The great tug-of-war announced in connection with this year’s carnival at Eltham is arousing considerable interest, and we bear of several maiden teams in training. The first prize in this event is £3O for a team of seven, with £7 for the runners-up. There is no likelihood of heavy axemen competing, as the strain on theii arms and hands would injuriously affect their chopping. Entries for the tng-o’-war close on Saturday'night next.
