the challenge was accepted and the DE-

The San Francisco club recently played
a game with Victoria. and the result was
one for the Victoria club and one for the
Californians. The Vancouver club was
an easy victim for San Francisco, and
now the Californians, flushed with their
victories, desire that Seattles scalp

they will have to put on their thinking

The game here will consist OF three
tables, three men 10 each table, and will
