Playing Poker by Wire.

Few outside the brotherhood of the
key are aware that operators often
play poker over the wire. 1t is, never
theless, a fact, and the diversion is fair
ly common.
"When | was working on the
Blankety blank line at a little railroad
station in Illinois," said an ex-operator
the other day. business was very slack
toward early morning, and we used to
get up four handed game regularly.
The players were myself and three 9th
er operators at different points along
the line. We would call each other up,
and then every man would deal him
self a hand, making his discards and
helping as desired. OF course, we had
to trust to mutual honor rs to cheating,
but l think everybody was on the
square. All played freeze out, and the
loser had to treat when we got togeth-
er at headquarters, which was about
once a month. ! must confess that the
action was n little slow, but the game
was more exciting than one might
imagine. Almost all the old operators
have played cards by telegraph at
some time Or another" = Chicago

MASON WILL LEAVE THE SENATE.
Report That GOV. Tanner VIII he His
Successor.

The Chicago Times Herald OF today says;
Senator William E. Mason's threat to re-
sign unless the administration present for
eign policy is changed according to the lat
est prophecy, may be executed before
Christmas. Persons who assume to be well
informed insist that he will step out imme-
dtately in pursuance Of an arrangement
which will change the whole face Of re-
publican politics in Illinois The story, as
widely circulated. runs to this effect:
Senator Mason will resign in a few
weeks to take high-Salaried legal posi-
uon-S12,on or more a year-with one OF
the biggest corporations in the country.
having headquarters in Chicago. Gov Tan
ner will then resign. and Lieut. Gov. North
colt, on succeeding to the governorship will
appoint Tanner to the vacant senacorship.
With Tanner thus eliminated from the gu
bernatorial situation, NorthcOtt can be
made the organization candidate for gov
ernOr next year. The interests which are
alleged to be making Senator Mason their
attorney at a big salary with a long-term
contract are interests which have friendly
feeling for Gov. Tanners future"

1t by the c. A. c.
The whist committee of the Columbia
Athletic Club held its first meeting this
season last Tuesday night at the home of
the club. and the most encouraging REPORTS
We're received. For the past month or more
applications for admission to the whist
circle of the club have been pouring in on
Chairman Macy, and as a result a dozen
or more names were posted on the bulletin
board last Tuesday night for membership.
At the meeting Of the committee 1t was
decided to devote two nights each week to
whist, Tuesday night being the regular
whist night, and Saturday night duplicate
play will be INDUCED In exclusively 1t
may be mentioned here that the club will
welcome additions to the whist group, and
every consideration win be shown visitors
as to accommodations for play and social
intercourse. Among the new members pro-
posed for membership last Tuesday night
were 'Uncle Nick" Young and the we'll
known minister's, Harvey, Miller and Jack
son, from Capitol Hill. Last winter the
Columbia Athletic Club created a great
boom in local whist circles by throwing
open its rooms for play once a week, and
this generous move has not been forgotten
by the lovers of the game in Washington.
1t Is expected that another large batch
of names will go up for admission at the
next meeting of the committee.

SPARR RING,



At the Broadway Athletic Club New
York, last night. the star attraction was a
twenty-five round bout at 1873 pounds be-
tween Eddie Connolly of St John. n. B..
and Matty Matthews of Brooklyn. They
fought the fun twenty-five rounds and
Referee John White declared the bout a
draw.
1t was hard fight all the way through,
and each man was disfgured early in the
game. At close quarters Connolly surprised
Matthews with singing rights on the ribs
and over the kidneys.
In the seventh round Matty's left eve
was badly cut. In the twelfth Matty
caught Connolly flush on the nose with his
left and set that organ to bleeding
The fifteenth round was the most sensa-
uonal of the fight. The men rushed to a
clinch, both pounding hard on the body
with both hands until ordered to let go nv
the referee. AS Matthews stepped back
Connolly caught him with left swing on
the head which sent him down to the floor
where he remained about Ave seconds A
few moments later Connolly landed A sim
liar blow in a breakaway and Matthews
took nine seconds of d rest. Matthews got
to close quarters when he got up, and some
bruising work over the kidneys was per
formed by both men. Connolly did the
larger share of the fighting here, and with
a smashing left reopered the cut over Mat
thews' left eye. Matthews was weak and
clinched frequently until the bell rang
From this to the twcnty-first round both
men took matters more easily In the
twenty-frst Connolly rushed Matty to the
ropes twice and Matty clinched each time
Connolly sent his right hard over the kid
neys and hooked it twice more to the short
ribs. Then they exchanged hard lefts on
the jaw and the round ended in a clinch
At the close of the twenty-fifth round
Connolly had such a decided lead that it
seemed certain he must get the decision
but the referee decided Ii a draw

Lectures on Money.

A very interesting course of lectures on
the subject of Money and Finance is being
given by Prof. Joseph French Johnson OF
the Wharton School of Economy before the
students of the School of Comparative
Jurisprudence and Diplomacy on Thursday
and Friday evenings of alternate weeks.
Prof. johnson makes clear and simple, by
Illustrations and diagrams, the principles
regarding money which to many men are
somewhat mysterious and cloudy.
Beginning with the general principles re-
garding value, utility, demand and supply
of commodities, he applies them to money
shows the nature and value of it, why there
Is a varying demand for il, its uses and
laws governing the supply.
The Importance of credit, how 1t affects
the value of money and prices, and the
causes which increase or diminish the
volume of credit are clearly shown

eleven left for Portsmouth. Va, last even
ing, where they will face the team repre-
senttng the athletic club of that place to-
day. The team is weakened through the
absence of several strong players, but not
withstanding a good report Is expected
from the Y. NJ. c. A. representatives.
OF the other outside games those In
which the Big Four will be engaged are
the most prominent and interesting. Cam
bridge, Mass, will undoubtedly have the
call today in the matter of interest. The
hardy Indian lads from Carlisle have ar
rived in that place and will confront the
great Harvard elevent today. The wearers
of the crimson have been tipped" off by
all the experts to be the best team on the
course, looked for, but the Indians are a
tough proposition. and a very close game
can be counted on.
Out in Chicago the next attractive game
of the day will be played between the Penn
sylvania lads and the university boys of
the windy city. AS the Quakers have been
twice defeated alreSdy this season and
other defeat is expected to float their way.
Should the Philadelphians brace up and
score victory today it will be life
saver for their followers at home, and
probably brace the team up enough to
make a respectable showing against the
Harvards later on.
The Princeton Tigers have arrived at
Ithaca, and will face Cornell today, and
here another close score is looked for, as
the New Workers have developed wonder
