a PERFECT TIE SCORE IN THE
BALtl LINE TOURNEY At
F0LEY,S.
hANDiCAps ARE VERY EVEN.
CLOSE CONTESTS AND EXCITING
FINISHES THE ALMOST IN
BROKEN RECORD.
CHICAGO sHoRT-sTor TOURNEY
IL Accusing ~ Great Deal Of Local
Interest-It Begins Next
Saturday.

There was quite boom in local Dill
lizards last week, produced by the handl-
can tournament-begun DIT Foley's on
Monday evening last. One OF the at
tractiye features was the first appear
ance of Walter Wilmot, the famous
left fielder of the Chicago ball club,
and the man that is selected to man
age the Minneapolis ball team the
coming season. A very remarkable
feature of the tourney as far as 1T has
gone is the success in fixing an equit-
able handicap. Ir the five games played
during the week the greatest differ
ence at the finish was less than twenty,
excepting the game played yesterday
afternoon between Wilmot and Foley
Jr.. when the latter played such
wretchediy bad game that he only
scored 116 when Wilnlot had COM
pleted his 1870, and Walter was playing
slow billiards for him, as his average,
az, will clearly show. To some extent
this will illustrate how extremely bad
!, Foley Jr. can perform at times with the
cue.
In the opening game on Monday
Thayer was selected to play Harri-
son. and the little amateur turned up
in fine form, winning his game by 10
points, with an average Of 4 and high
run of 90 Harrison made 281; high run,
81, and average 71s The second even
ing brought a greater crowd, and
Capen and Foley Jr. as the perform
ers. 1t was battle from the start,
Capen having the best Of it till towards
the finish, when Foley picked UP and
won out, beating Capen 10 points. The
third game was the star one of the
week, bringing Harrison and Wilmot to
the table. 1T was a real contest from
the very start, Wilnnot having all the
best of it to the finish, when Harrison,
