FoleyS alleys have been closed for the
warm weather. save on occasions when
clubs wish to play there, and then Mr..
Foi, - engaged special pin boys to
Eselt b customers. But the business
III, ..,- week would not warrant cOm-
,plete and regular corps of boys to be in
constant attendance. and for this reason
me alleys. as 4 regular thing, were
abandoned early the past week. AmortS
alleys, however. continue open, and
probably will be kept ready for the use
of hardy athletes all the summer. That
is the intention of the proprietor at pres
ent, at any rate.
Wednesday evening, however, the
Foley ALLEYS will present a scene OF
activity that will remind one of the
lhalcvOn DAYS when the aim of the crack
!bowlers of the city were waging for the
elegant GLOBE emblem. This will be
occasion of the third play for the Foley
emblem in the SO-called point contest"
The emblem was first won by the re-
doubtable Adam Heck, of the Capitol
club, and then upon the second attempt
the trophy passed into the hands of gal
liant Col. Chantler. The winner must
uefend his title twice successful before
sthe Foley trophy passes to the perma-
Inent possession or the victor. All those
who participated in either of the two
previous struggles are eligible to play
"Wednesday evening, and Mr.. Foley
makes the special request that they
come and try and wreSt the palm from
sthe two who took the lead in the initial
SplayS.
MIR. Foley, unfortunately, vi be ab- |
sent, but he has made all necessary ar
arrangements for the comfort and atten-
FtiOn or the patrons of the contest, and !
Lthe score will be carefully kept, while
San efficient corps Of pin boys will be IN
attendance. The game will be called
.promptly at O'Clock and will probably
continue until midnight, and, should
the list Oh the programme still be in
complete, the balance Of the trials will
be made on the succeeding day. For
the information of the public, the rules
that govern are annexed:

As was intimated at the beginning of
this exposition of the local happenings
among the votaries of manly sports, the
only feature that has perennial attrac-
ton Is bill iards. FOley'S tables con-
tinue to find about ali they can COM
fortably accommodate. Of course, the
weather of the past week has been far
from uncomfortably warm, and the only
difficulty that has interpOSed has been
the rain on the one nd, the excite
ment of the Minneai Ii convention and
business demands e.. the other. So,
billiard playing among the amateurs
continues as it has for many months.
It seems scarcely necessary to assert
that the stimulus that has kept the anna
teur billiard players with cue in hand
so faithfully. is the temptation that the
elegant GLOBE trophy has. The design,
natural size, is now neatly framed Oh
the cynosure of all eyes, for it hangs
over the large plate glass mirror, and
can escape the notice of no one upon
entering the place.
There are some fifteen st. Paul can
didates for the emblem, but as yet not a
Minneapolis performer has entered the
lists. 1t would seem that there must be
some miSapprehenSiOnS of the cOndi-
-OEk kf,T NNrn1 .a1-C Il
have been at least round half-dOZen
aspirants entered from the Flour City.
Hence it may be necessary to reiterate
what has been published before in these
columns. There is no entrance fee
charged, and the play will be conducted
absolutely without cost to the partici-
pants.
Amateur players cannot possibly con-
cetve OF anything that so tends to faciIi-
tate their speed on the billiard table as
entering an exciting tournament for a
valuable trophy. They will find that
there are other players to compete with
who have learned many little policy
strokes that arc important helps, and
there is no lover Of the pastlme that is
deaf to the ambition of accelerating
his play. Indeed, every billiard per-
former, no matter how ordinary their
game, has desire TO improve, and it is
the aim of the DAILY GLOBE in offer
ing this beautiful emblem to encourage
this ambition.
The GLOBE is pleased to announce
that Thomas Foley. who is unquestion-
ably one of the greatest billiard enthus-
lasts in the world, has added largely to
the interest of the GLOBE tournament.
He has hung up second and third prizes,
and they are costly and rich, and the
players who win them will have ex-
pended not dollar at the conclusion of
The series for the experience that they
will have had nor for the rich trophies
that they will carry home with them.
