who blunder through a game OF whist VIII
excuse their mistakes in a very self-satls-
fed way by saying they never studied
a book in their lives, as they only play
for amusement. Just suppose lady or
mature years sitting down TO a piano ard
banging the notes at random, without any
idea of harmony or tune. 1t would indl-
cate a singular type of mind If when II
was suggested that there would be more
pleasant noise if the lady had learned her
note. she replied. oh, | only play the
piano for amusemcnt.'
The introduction of duplicate whist,
whereby the same hands are played over,
so that in subsequent rounds you hold the
good cards. with which your opponents
raked in the tricks, has eliminated every
element Of chance and obliterated that
faint line OF demarcation' which Proctor
said separates some games from the exact
sciences.
The old game was a haphazard, every
one for himself sort of a play. depending
largely upon holding high cards, and
wherein the little ones were Of no ac-
count The modern theory, however, Is a
combination of forces utilized so as to
play the partners hands 10 the best pos
sibIe advantage, and introducing a system
whereby every card becomes an ineligible
sentence in the language OF the game.
Upon the principle of imparting 20 every
card played all the whist knowledge you
possess it is astonishing TO see how much
can be said By the fall of an Insignificant
little card. and what influence it may ex-
ert upon the result of the game. Take, ror
example. the very first card led. The mod
ern play is TO lead off with the fourth
best OF your longest suit. Your partner
opens the game by leading eight of hearts
Ycu know. therefore. that he holds exactly
three better than the one led. You look
at your own hand. and are delighted 10
ind that YOU are also strong in hearts.
You hold king. jack and nine. 50 don't be
anxious about taking that trick; your part
ner has told you. as plainly as If he spoke
in words, that he holds three better and
YOU hold all the others. SO do not worry
about the way the suit viii go after
trumps have been cleared.

Milwaukee, Nov. 2S-Peter McGeoch,

shot himself Wednesday morning at his
home at National avenue. just outside
of the city. was found dead I'm the BATH
room OF his home al II SO o'clock. He had
placed the muzzle of a revolver in his
mouth and fired. The bullet took an up
ward course. and penetrated the brain.
His domestic troubles undoubtedly led
Mr.. McGeOch 10 take his life. 1T was
announced Tuesday that Mrs. McGeoch
was about TO bring suit for divorce or
the ground OF incompatibilty OF temper.
and IL was well known TO their aCquaint-
ances that the married life OF Mrs. Nc
Geoch was not happy. They had lived
apart for some time. Mrs McGeoch was
a Mrs. Libby. of Kenwood. a suburb Of
Chicago. whore she married McGeoch
eight years ago He first husband was
"A well-known Chicago Board OF Trade man
and pork packer. Their friends in Mil
waukee. with the assistance of their at
torneys, tried 10 effect "a quiet settlement
of their differences. but without success.
Mr.. McGeoch was a man who had expert
enced many revcrses, and gone undaunt-
ed through trials that would have broken
down most men. Domestic scandal was
more than he could bear, and the imme-
date cause of his suicide was no doubt
the making public OF the fact of the i'm
pending divorce. Mr.. McGeOch was one
OF the most daring spectators that Mil
waukee ever produced. and his famous
lard deal gave him a national reputation
The corner failed and ruined him, hut he
had engineered Tpany corners before
which made stacks of money for him and
his associates. Mr.. MCGeoch was born
in Scotland in 1854 At the age of q years
he came 10 America, and with his father
located on a farm IN Wisconsin. near Wa
terloo. Soon after he went TO that town
and began buying wheat for shipment to
Milwaukee. Later he moved 10 Milwaukee
and went into partnership with a man
named Van Kirk IN the grain business
In 1869 the firm entered the pork packing
business. hut Mr.. McGcoch continued 20
deal ia grain. In 1915 the firm was caught
iu the Schroeder Lindhlom deal. and when
all the trades were closed Mr.. McGeoch
was said 10 be Sl0o.o00 ia debt. In 1873
NcGeoch became interested in a deal With
Armour. and as a result became "a rich
man. Ia 1875 he and several others at

day in April lard dropped at the rate OF
Z cent a minute and NrGeoch is said to
have lost $4,000 on the deal He soon
recovered his fortune and then moved

sided.
