spIenmd general anc Knows now TO take
advantage of the mistakes of an adversary
and make comparatively few himself
George Slosson, my old time rival, was
first called the Student" of billiards by
his stanch friend and admirer, Al Smith,
at a tournament in which he, Vigneaux,
Schaefer, GARNER and myself participated
16 years ago. The remark was prompted
by the deliberate play and careful study of
almost every shot on Georges part. No bet
ter term could be applied to him. for Slos-
son in practicing for great match studies
out every possible shot or combination of
shots that can be made. He studies bill
lizards as an attorney would study law or a
doctor medicine. He does this every day
of his life, even when not practicing for a
match and when other champions are en-
ioying the good things Of life, and conse-
Quently tagging.
A Personal Matter.
Now a word in conclusion. Modesty
would dictate that l say nothing about my
humble self. but / have been constantly
asked by inquiring friends how got the
sobriquet Of ''Old Comanche," so have de-
termined to throw modesty to the winds
and tell the story for the first time. When
the two Dions, GARNER, Rudolphe and my
self played a series Of championship OF
money games about 10 years ago, kept a
billiard saloon on the Bowery. All of the
lively lads OF that lively thoroughfare used
TO come into my place and go up to Tam
many hall when l was a participant in a
match. Most of them paid their way. Some
did not, and gave them admission tickets,
the sole stipulation l exacted being that
they would cheer like mad for me at critical
jVnctures in the game, the more to rattle"
my opponent than cheer up myself / first
tested their lung capacity in the back room
of my saloon, and if they could yell like
wild Indians they got the so free tickets
usually allowed me by the management.
They were thoroughly organized and cap
tained and at given signals roared like lu-
natics. One night Cyrille Dion, wit whom
was playing threw down his cue in dis
gust and in his earnest French way ex-
claimed: ''ParbleuI | can no play with
Sexton's friends shouting like wild Co
manches."
That is how got the name of "Old Co
manche'

During large part of the reign Of
Louis XIII. and his successor masks
were generally worn in public by la
dies of quality. These artificial cover
ings were of black velvet, lined with
white satin. They folded like pocket
book. and were kept in place by q
small glass button held between the
teeth of the wearer.

NEW YORK, March 12.-It is wonderful
how quickly a successful billiard player
acquires nom de guerre, so to speak. A
word, often spoken in a moment of jest or
admiration over some popularity Of play.
Of manner or even physical appearance,
will affix title to a billiardist which he
ran never get rid of, even IL he would. Thus

resemblance to the great German chancel-

Oak Hill Cemetery.
EDITOR Owosso PRESS

EDITOR Owosso PRESS
Please allow me space In your paper for few
remarks in regard to our city cemetery have
learned that much depends upon the sexton. He
Is expected to be learned I'm his work, and IL is
his duty to prepare himself as best he can by read
ing and studying everything devoted to his call
ing. There Is one thing that we ought not to for
get, that all cemeteries are for certain purpose.
know feel frequently the difficulty of trying to
combine the landscape effects and beauties with
the cemetery part of it, but 1t has been done in
other cemeteries and know that 1t can be done
In ours. We must not forget that the one great
and important thing to remember Is that a c"me-
terri is a cemetery and we cannot make anything
else of it, but make 1t just as beautiful as we pos
sibly can.
Now let me ask all who are interested In this
work, what are we going to do In 1894? Much
has been done In the past Those In control
have worked hard and done much to clean up
and beautify the grounds and today there are no
swampy or unkept hooks or corners to be found
within the inclosure But are we satisfied with
this, and should we stop here? BY no means.
Let us not be discouraged but renew our efforts
of the past. 1t Is not my purpose to find fault
and have no wish 10 offend, but do wish to en-
courage every lot owner to renewed efforts I'm
this matter. Let me give you an idea of what
was done In the way of work on lots last season.
About one third of the lots occupied received
good care throughout the season, one third re-
ceived but one raking just before Decoration
Day. and the remaining One-third received no
care at all. Make this personal thought,
what can do this year to improve and beautify
my lOt?" In this way and In no other can the
work be done HENRY TRAvER, Sexton.
