LAST NIGHT AT THE FRENCH BALL.

LAST NIGHT AT THE FRENCH BALL.
The dull affair known the French Ball. so
called because the walters are French took place
at the Madison Square Garden last night. The
walters wore simple but striking costumes. The
coats were black with black buttons for

posing white doublets beneath, with high collars
and cuffs originally white. The trousers were
black.
Among those present were the members of the
Committee of Arrangements and the Floor Com
mittee These were dressed in black suits. both
coats and waistcOats cut low in front, the coats
having right angular points at the hips and fall

collars and cuffs. This uniformity of dress was
pleasing feature OF the ball
There number of guests present the men
the committees and the walters and the women in
costumes which were in most cases not worth de-

possible to say with authority about French ball
at the hour at which morning paper goes to

draw on their negotiations, for the bah does not
fairly begin till too late hour for anything to

American and Baltimore Teams Tied
for Second Place for A. w. L. Trophy.
1t has become difficult matter to obtain
news concerning the American Whist
League trophy games since the matches
have been transferred to Boston as a result
of Captain Wards Victory over the New
York Whist Club team two weeks ago. But
the news has now come that the American
and duplicate whist club teams of Boston
were the contestants in that city last Sat
urday, and that Captain Wards team once
more gained a victory. the score being % to
II in their favor.
On the first twenty-four deals it looked as
if the Americans would break their record
for small losses, but on deal twenty-five a
triple slipped away, and a total of six
tricks gained was the Duplicates score for
the first half. In the evening the Ameri-
cans found the Duplicates worthy antago-
nists for sixteen boards, but thereafter 1t
was walk-away for Captain Ward and
his companions. The victory places the
Americans nose and nose with Baltimore
in the trophy race both teams having scored
eleven wins.
partial analysis of the play as recorded
shows that on eighteen deals the same suit
and card was opened at both tables, and
on fifteen more the same suit but a diff
ferent card. On these deals American
gained sixteen tricks and Duplicate six.
On twelve deals different plain suits were
opened and American gained six tricks and
