JOSEPH DION And MAURICE DAILY.
These two exports, having played tic for tile
fourth prize In tho tournament began, ut 1880
P. m., final game to decide tho proprietorship
thereof. 1lr. Al Smith was the reforco. Though
DAILY had boon pretty badly beaten on tho preyi-
IN tho betting Mt considerable odds. tho
majority of those iuteroatod in billiards
being OF tho opinion that his defeat WAS accom-
pliahed more BY luck than by skill. His plny at
fed this conclusion. It was as clever as any that
the tournament had developed. Dion won tho
lead, but, rs usual, tho first few innings were
barron OF .pointg. In tho fifth, howoyor, DAILY

well.m.do run Of al, TO which be added runs
Of 26. 40, and So in rapid succession. He was
now 17a to 46. and appeared to have an easy
victory before him, as lis opponent Was playing
ay Tniy mediocre game. After his run, Of 50,
experiencing ono Of those spells Of bad lack with
which nearly every player has to contend in
match Dion. according to custom, picked up
at this stage, and put together 4 fno run Of G6,
which Wna mado by delicate nursing on
tho rail. This put his scoro at iii to 150. Moth
Ing further Of moment tranBpired until the
twontieth inning, when DAILY managed by hard
work to got in . run Of 81 tho majority Of which
were n made by h.rtl shots. Dion followed right
being again valuable auxiliary. Two innings
aftorwaFd q brilliant run OF 81 turned him On
bis third string, tho call being 205 to 238
for DAILY. In tho twenty-eoventh inning
gained something Of his 1ost lead. During the
next fow innings tho game dragged, neither
player helping himself along toward tho end to
any conetderable extent. III the thirty-fourth
magnificent run Of 61, which placed him at 3l9
70 a2S. This run and . subsequent one OF 23
had very bad effect Oh Josopli's playing, and it
msy bo said with considerable truth that he cut
very poor figure in the latter and of the game,
which was Won by DAILY in tho forty-second inu-
ing. Following is the score:

uBAsSY AND GARNER
Wero then introduced, nnd the closing game of
the tournament was begun. Tho contest was to
decide who should possess the first prizs, the
players having won an eyon number Of ganos in
the regular series, and was, therefore, watched
With eager interest by tho Immense audience.
Mr. Smith continued to net as rofereo. GARNER
when he counted from tho 1ay-ofr. Ho made
2 points and took his seat. ubassy followed
with 3, tho last ono of which Has made by
seratch , darnior, in the noxt inning, accu1nu-
hs ha a G9a eighth fe% enns ssi the P'a sane
ing, simple shots that tho yofiest tyro
saad S;sa, have r. made 5as without astonishing
whom ho had thu balls ID splondid position, and
GGrnicr therefore, benefited by bis skill, but
only nttlo, however. He froze on bis second
shpped up darnier followed suit, and thon the
former made 49, missing an easy shot and leay-
Ing the balls in heap for his opponent a second
time. He failed again. to take advan-
tinued to be Is dull and d. uniintorosting Inter G
ns ever. Garner at this time waH playing much
poorer than his antagonist, though the latter
was by no means up to his mark. A run Of II
by the 9ld man in tho thirteenth inning rather
Feioved the prevailing monotony, and run Of
35 IN bis noxt did much to dispel it. Ho e1hib-
tied fine round-the-tabo play in tho in
ming, and might havo kept on indeh-
nltely but for q mas OF short Cushion
latter materially reucod tho lead in the sixtoenth
inning BY run Of 50, which was a mixture Of
good and bad play throughout. His nervousness
was exhibited when 10 permitted tho balls to
freeze at tue most critical portion OF tho rum
The game thon relapsed into absolute wrotched-
ness, in which state it continued for several inn-
tnea. It seemed for a time as II the
hearts Of tho players wore in their
mouths. In the twenty-hrst inning Ubassy,
missed simple follow shot, ind loft behind him q
position which GARNER, for wonder, improved
with consnmmate skill for II points. Ho WAS
zow on his second string, and 158 to 1911. In
count MAS made, and allowed after ho had made
3, though majority OF tho audience was positive
that oarom had been made. UbnsBy lost his
temper and threw down bis cue, but Ills better
game. The audience exhibited considerable
feeling in his favor, but b1r. Smith should not
bo blamed for his decision. Undoubtedly he
could not see tue shot from where ho Eat aud ho
atmply ruled according to Lis Judgment in tho
matter. GARNER made II from tue leave.
n the aucceeduing ono, however, Ubassy ran
20, and left another poaition for his opponent,
which resulted IN run Of Il. Ubassy made Q,
md in tho twcnty-sixth inning GARNER. in run
OF 10, turned on Ills third airing, the acoro being
@6 to TT. Tllres innings later Ubassy got
around tho corner, and WIS 200 to 22o, a run Of
~ doing the business. In tho worry next
inning ho made II, lis highest In the
game thus far. and wont ahead once
more, The run was ended by m unfortunate

brought them together, and manipulated them
for 81. many splendid sL!ota for position boing
rnade during the run. This put him in the van
again, and he still further increased lis load by
well.exeoutea runs Of D, %, and 10 IN tho
dfth innings, all Of Which contrib
uted to put him at 025 to 2G2. From this time
forward the old man seemed to tako no interest,"
In the game, and played very poorly. Tbs con-
Tary WAS the case with Garnlor, who Kept knock
Ink out double-1guro runs In nearly oyory iu-
aing: ue finally won the gnme in tho forty
FIRST inning, defeating Ubassy badly. Following
