WHIST ONE A CRUDE GAME
First Known as "Triumph," Whence
the Word "Trumps" Is Said
to Be Derived.

Whist was first called triumph" n
name which was afterward corrupted
into trump" The eighteenth century
saw whist in its primitive form, the
whole object of the game being to win
tricks by leading high cards or by
trumping. Then came the era of Hoyle,
which may be said TO have lasted from
1880 to 1860, and taught players to think
not only of their own hands, but of the
other hands also, and to take advantage
of the positions of the cards in them.
Hoyle also taught that trumps might be
more p~rofitably employed than in simple
trumping, and showed that they might
be used to disarm the adversary and TO
obtain secondary advantage In trick
making by other suits of less apparent
power. 1t was not until 1860 that the
philosophical era can be said to have
begun, and the origin OF the new move
ment was a knot of young men at Cam
bridge. England. known as the Lite
Whist school. This body kept records
of its games, but no n thought of max
ing the data known until 1861. Coher-
ence in the system of play was still
wanting. and this was supplied in 1864
with DR.. Poles essay on the theory OF
the modern scientific whist.
