JOHN M'0OvER~ ON OLD CHiCAoO.

son and State street. The Tribune Of.
fee was where the Olympic Theater
II. the Republican Inter Ocean, was
opposite the Title and Trust building
on Washington street, the Journal,
Post and Times were all on the west
side Of Dearborn street. In the order
named. with the Journal on the north.
The Richmond Hotel, on South Water
street. was considered the swell thing.
The fremont House stood at the south.
east corner Of Randolph and Dearborn
streets. Lake street was the chief
thOrOughfare. The horse cars rnn on

was ut "Mack's" saloon and restau.

There was I'm oddly spotted stone

the Brunswick billiard hall was next

ency. The scene In this hall, after the
theater was out, was the most brilliant
Of It's kind that ! have ever seen. In
those days the game Of billiards was
what baseball. golf, football and bi.
cycling all together now are. 1t was
fashionable to play billiards. The
hnndsOmest Of all the players was
Johnny Coon. Pierre Carme had u
hall under Woods Museum, where the
Schiller Theater now II. We all sup
posed our Carme was the best billiard
player that ever was. Imagine our
establishment when another AMI very
disagreeable Frenchman - without
waXed mustachiOs, like Carme's-with
mere side whiskers of Indifferent cul-
ture-a Frenchman named RudOlphe-
came along and heat Carme as badly as
Grant beat Greeley, as Mckinley beat
Bryan! II was the first time Chicago
ever felt u defeat.
RudOlphe could do one thing ! never
saw anyone else accomplish before his
time. The two billiard balls being
placed on their spots, he would place
the cue-ball beside the nearest spotted
ball and make u draw from the other
spotted ball, effecting u carOm without
n cushion. He usually succeeded twice
out Of three attempts. When he got 1t
mt the first attempt 1t was u fine sight.
He started n hall on Clark street. near
the present Grand Opera House, and
his wife, the Madame RudOlphe, help

At this time Tom Foley had a small
billiard hall where ThOmsOn's restau-
rant stands--neXt the alley-say SIX
tables. Jimmy Cusack was the clerk.
Johnny McDevitt, champion, was there
a good deal. Here the newspaper men
played their billiards--fOur-ball, no.

points to a shot. Franc Wilkie, Tod

years only chickens, as turkeys would

II found that the Peking ducks of to.
day bore about the same relation to the
old puddle ducks of my boyhood MS "A

The ducks l formerly kept were the
common puddle ducks. They were poor
layers and great ramblers, would often
go from half mile to a mile from
home and not get back in time to bo
shut up at night, and would lose their
eggs, and finally before the summer
was over they wero all killed in the
woods whore they had wandered and
furnished Tepast to the providers that
were fond Of duck moat.

satisfied with a supply in a trough.
They arc very domestic, and although
