Talk of the Cue and Bowling Ball
Playing Off the Ties.
A horoscope view fails to indicate
anything especially startling in the
near future, locally, in the sporting
world. Still there are many events of
nominal interest at least. OF course
this summing of things to come does
not refer to the advent of the superia-
tive trotter, Nancy Hanks, and the
black equine pacing wonder, Jay Eye
See, at Hamline next week. They are
truly events of almost unprec-
edented interest. When Rarus came
here, he was the record holder,
and the same may be said of Goldsmith
Maid, of tombstone and of Van Arnim
and other magnificent harness turf per-
formers. Then it is easy to conceive
why their coming, individually, were
events of coordinate Importance to the
lovers of the superb in equine perform
ances with the coming of the two Won
derfal animals next week.
Aside from the race track sports,
there is really nothing to forecast in st.
Paul save amateur affairs. The billiard
table continues to challenge the devo-
ton of a goodly number of players.
This is principally due to the encourage
ment offered by the DAILY GLOBE.
This paper has taken foremost posi-
ton iii promoting heaIthful recreation
and honest amateur sports. As has
been remarked by that sage and eu-
thusiastic patron of the very events en-
cUuraged by the GLOBE, Cyrus Yelling
ton,
billiards and bowling are two safe
guards to the morals of our young men.
Ihe boys OF today are not unlike the
boys of every age. Youthful muscle,
athletic ambition and pride in exploits
OF SIKH, will ever rebel at restraint, and
the FESTIVE attributes of the vigorous
youth become more intractabie under
the ban of prohibition. Deny the boys
recreatIve pleasures, and they will seek
them clandeStinely. Then, why should
not the GLOBE merit praise for its
course in awarding rich emblems for
amateur championship performances in
honest games and heaithfuI pastimes?
They keep the boys from falling into
| more dissolute ways; they stimulate
that pride aud self-respect that consti-
tute the nobler and manlier character
istics that fit them for the business bat
ties of life.'
Yes, the GLOBES efforts have stimu-
lated an unprecedented interest in the
grand pastime in the Twin Cities.
L nCH wiz
billiards a short twelvemonth ago are
now expert with the cue, and they
handle the beautiful ivory spheres with
| a master stroke. Young men, in other
| words, who seldom il ever scored in the
| double figures in one inning frequently
| pass the Quarter-century mark. The
| truth of this statement is shown in the
| summary Of the GLOBE tournament that
| closed at Foiey's Saturday evening.
| The highest run, it is true, was forty
nine points, but the young man who
made the score has not infrequently
made runs of seventy-fve and upwards
| in his practice games. This refers to
young Tom Foley, land he does not stand
as conspicuous example of the
claim. Charley Glow, although be only
attained the credit of thirty-three run
| in the tourney, has proud practice
| record. He has often scored his 100
points in twelve innings and in that
