Instances Of SO prolonged 1 contest At thC
game can, however, probably BE- given Is
Is instansed Ii the eIperience Of four gen.
tleinen OF this city. In 1870, seven yea,rs
sRo, they made an agreement 70 organize
q euchre party, playing one night week
al their alternate houses. The agreement
has been kept up almost Without 4 break,
only the most pressing engagement Or I'M
ayoidable causes being allowed to inter.
iere with "euchre nights" The meetings
commence each year in the fall, and are
continued through the winter months.
Since 1870 they have held ~ OF these
meetings and have played 99l9 games;
The same two are alwpya opponents, and
the score, which Is accurately kept, now
stands, A and partner 1889 games, b and
partner 1880 games. The contest Is still
going on, and Ia likely to continue, az the
parties take as much interest init II not
more now than at any period Of the strng-
Gle. II should also be mentioned that II
e played for the honor OF beating and
Inc am use ment Of the game. No betting
Il allowed or has ever been proposed,
consequently there has been no disagree.
mcnts beyond amicablo discussions IS to
the best mode Of playing.
