THE PLAY.
NOTES.

Table l.
Trick South leads from x. ], 9, s of
spades, rather than from A, j, 5 of clubs.
There is very little choice between the leads,
though we rather prefer the club.
Trick EAST would lead trumps except
that he places a very strong spade suit with
South, and figures that he will probably lose
two spade tricks If he draws the trumps
West must be short in spades and East leads
back that suit on the chance that West may
make one or two trumps before they are
drawn from him. Had East led trumps, the
deal is an easy thirteener.
Trick 3-South is perfectly justified in his
trump lead, though he plays East for strength
in trumps, his object being to exhaust West,
if possible, and prevent the ruff on spades.
Trick 5-West can easily count East for
trump strength enough to exhaust the ad-
yersarles If he can get in, and West plays ex-
cellently in leading low from his diamond
suit.
Trick 6-South figures that West may have
another trump, and leads again, and East
and West get every other trick, the ace of
clubs dying in South's hand
Trick 2-With the club opening by South,
East has nothing but the trump lead Chicago
was not following American leads very closely,
and East leads king, then ace from six trumps
Trick 5-West has indicated diamonds as his
suit by his discard of spade, and East leads
jack of diamonds. West plays well in passing
Trick Give "hink South plays very careless
ly in covering 18th queen; he should have con-
sidered the probability of East's not having
another diamond, and of Vests making the
error OF passing a second time. In other
words, he should not have made things
cinch for East and West Had South not COW
ered it would have been pretty puzzle for
West; he would have been tempted to pass
again on the chance that East had another dia-
mend, and that queen was three times guarded
with South; if he had, it would have lost Just
three tricks, as North and South would make
two spades and ace of clubs. We think, how
ever, that it would be Vests play to win the
diamond with king, as he could not lose ex-
cept in case East did have another diamond
and South held four originally, which is not
the ordinary distribution of the cards, though
by no means an impossible one.
Tricks to 13-East discards all his losing
cards on Vests diamonds, and North and
South put down goose egg on the score card.
The following deal is very pretty one, and
contains some fine whist notably the coup
played by st. Paul West. at table l. trick 5,
which is whist of a high order w. G. Bron-
son Jr. played the West hand. - -

COLLEGE ATHLETIC MEETING.
The 1. A. A. A. Declines to Compete
With Westerners.

NEW YORK. Feb. 29.-The annual
meeting of the Intercollegiate Ath-
letic Association of Amateur Athletes
of America was held at the Fifth Ave
nue. hotel today and new officers elect
ed for ensuing year. The report of the
executive committee, favoring an alli-
ance with the Amateur Athletic union
and declining to enter into any compe-
tition with the Western Inter-Col-
legiate Association of Athletes, was
adopted unanimously The I. A. A. A.
declined on the ground that it was
a national organization always ready
to admit to membership any college
evincing a desire to promote athletics,
and therefore regard it unwise to en-
ter into competition with any other
intercollegiate athletic association. The
meeting was then adjourned.

AMATEUR BILLIARD, SERIES.

fra'FA
TABLES.

In a short time Foley will start an
amateur billiard tournament for a num-
Der of handsome prizes, which is ex-
pected to bring together a fast lot Of
players. 1t is pretty well understood
now that st. Paul has as many deyo-
tees Of the gentleman's game as any
city of its size in the country, and 1t is
reliably stated that there are at least a
dozen residents of ST. Paul who devote
themselves to billiards for amusement
only who can average four, or better in
play.
Gallagher and Spinks have about COM
pleted arrangements for another match
on the same terms as their previous
meeting. Gray Tom will be a strong
Ell favorite than in the last.
The young Napoleon, Ives, is ar
ranging for grand tourney which will
be the first of it's kind ever held in
Berlin. The American game, 14-inch
balk line, will be played, he represent
ing America, while Plot, GARNER and
Finell will appear for France. Ger
mans four experts are also in practice
Ives will probably have no trouble de-
Tending the position OF his country.
1t is understood that Edward Nc
Laughlin, of Philadelphia, is to make
Chicago his home inathe future. He
will be a decided acquisition to
Western billiards.
Young Harrison has concluded to
change scene of his operations from
st. Paul to Minneapolis, and after to-
morrow he will be found at the
Guaranty loan rooms. He has been
with Foley, in this city, seven months,
and has created quite an interest in
the game here, besides making friends
of all who have come in contact with
him. His style of play is catchy, easy,
brilliant and effective. If he would
apply himself to practice as studiously
as he should, he would very soon take
rank among the foremost players of
the country.

NOTES.

Table l.
Trick I've believe that the Chicago play
ers ordinarily lead low from ace and four
others probably North's reason for leading
ace from this hand was the presence OF
queen, 10 and 8.
Trick 1--WE think North should have fol-
lowed with queen compelling East to play
king if he holds it, South should not trump
queen if it is not covered. East plays low
on the probability that South has no more
diamonds and will trump. South trumps and
West overtrumps.
Trick 5-West, after leading two rounds
of trumps, opens his club suit.
He leaves jack of trumps out against
him; the drop of the cards does

but the chances seem to be In favor Of East,
This is case where the Philadelphia system
OF echoing from three trumps would be OF
value, for West could then lead losing trump
and get discard OF heart on East's king of
diamonds at once; we are inclined TO think
that West should have tried the play, any
way.
Trick EAST leads king of diamonds and
West gets the discard of a heart. South
should not discard away from his nine of
clubs; it may serve to block Vests club suit
whereas the discard of a small heart can do
no possible harm.
Trick 10-East has no object in trumping
the club, as ii is the best one, but he wishes
to show that he has counted the cards and
places the three remaining trumps with West.
Table p
Trick 1.-The low lead-South wins with his
lone jack.
Trick 2-South dislikes to open his heart
suit, and makes forced lead of trumps.
mainly for the purpose of throwing the lead.
We should rather favor the heart lead.
Trick 4-West discontinues the trump lead
for the present and opens his club suit.
Trick 6-North, having the major tenace
in diamonds, does not lead that suit again.
but leads queen of hearts from queen, jack.

queen is the best card to help him.
Trick West should not lead ace of trumps.
East must have jack alone and probably no
more clubs King of clubs and then a small
one for East TO trump is the correct play.
Trick 10-South makes the nine OF clubs, es-
tahlished in his hand and Vests three trumps
take the last three tricks.
