UBAssY AND G. DION.

Ubassy Makes . Big Run and Leaves
or Ahead-A Close and Interesting
Game.
The match Of 1000 points at the three-b ball game
between Cyrllle Dion aud Ubassy for $500 was COM
menced last evening in the private room attached
to billiard nall on Fourteenth street. Isidore
Guyreaud offlciated as referee, and about nity
spectators were present. The game was played
on fve bv ten table, with 21 balls. BY the
terms agreed upon they were to play until one Of
the players counted 500, and then he would have
to finish his run, which would stop the game Tor
that evening letting the other take the first shot
on the next day.
They strung for the lead shortly after eight
p NJ, and, Ubassy winning, failed to count. After
a couple from Cyriiie, Ubassy made 1. In the first
seven innings Ubassy made 8 and Cyrille 70.
Ubassy then ran 20 and both played very badly for
the next four or five innings. On the thirteenth
and fourteenth Cyrle livened up little and
counted IL and IL. and on the fourteenth Ubassy
added 81 to his score. At the close OF the four
teenth inning the game stood
UBAssY 49, DION Al.
Ubassy then began to play very badly, as in the
next thirteen innings he only added II to his score.
In the meanwhile Cyrile had Deen improving his
time. as he managed to roll three very pretty
runs OF "a, 43 and 81, that gave him good lead.
On the twenty-eighth inning Ubassy made 10 and
Cyrie followed on the twenty inning with

After making IL on his thirty first Ubassy only
counted IN the next nine innings, but to his
credit let 1t be recorded that In the thirty tn
could have played again. as Cyrllie was away rom
the table and not watching the game, but sat
and e the Te Two 0sc balls
or the present day IS not often apt TO make such
a mistake. In the lorty-Hrst and forty second In-
nings Ubassy played well and counted 26 and 27,

Nothing very brilliant, with the exception OF is
eight innings; but on the iity-third inning UDassy
added 20 to his score, and on the nltyiourth Cyrle

innings On the sixty-iOurth Ubassy made 20 and
Cyrilic 20, the latter repeating on the sxty-nfth

missed some very easy shots On the sxty-ninth

13 bringing his score up to 354, while Dion
had 4s1. Dion then ADDED and 5 to his count,
and Ubassy followed with II. On the seventy

uation, nursed them very prettiy, taking them all
round the table, and at 80 made delicate masse
snot, which caused an appeal from Cyrllle to the
referee, but as the latter decided q count UDassy
continued playing, and, still manipulating them In
the same corner, soon passed the hundred and
kept the marker busy until he passed the 500 ana
broke down on his l3Sth shot. The following is
