ORIGIN OF WHIST.
ifhc Game Was First Called Triumph
and Aftcrwnrd Trump.

Whist was first called triumph, a
name which was afterward corrupted
into trump. The eighteenth century
saw whist in It's primitive form, the
whole object Of the game being to win
tricks by leading high cards or by
trumping. Then came the erp of Hoyle,
which may be said to have lsted from
1850 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 Q the cards
in them. IlOyle also Ia Ight that
trumps might be more pro itably en-
ployed than In simple trmnplng and
showed that they might be sed to dig
arm the adversary ana to obtain sec
ondary advantage in trick making by
other suits of less apparent power. It
was not until 1860 that the philosoph
ical era can be said TO have begun, and
the origin of the new movement was n
knot Of young men at Cambridge, Eng
land, known as the Little Whist school
This body kept records of its games
but no one thought of making the data
known until 1861. Conference in the
system of play was still wanting, and
this was supplied in 1864 with DIR.

GRAND JURY
THAT SMOKED.
The December Term Men Got
Away With Large Quantity
of Cigars.
Special to tie Evcning Neq0s

Special 10 the Evenfng Meas.
New Brunswick, Apr. S:-That the
members of the last grand jury, of
which Frank A. Brown, the postmas-
ter at Cranbury, was foreman, were
good smokers is shown by the fact
that q statement has been rendered to
the foreman by the treasurer of that
body, Louis A. Wolfson, of this city,
showing that 1853 was spent for cigars
while the grand jury was in session.
There were originally twenty-three
men on the grand jury when it was
sworn in in the presence of Justice
Fort last December, but on an average
the attendance was about twenty. The
grand jury was in session but nine
DAYS during the term, although ten OF
the members were on hand the day of
the blizzard when the number in at
tendance--was not large enough for. the
transaction of any business.
With this average twenty men, if
they all smoked, pulled away 81 worth
of cigars on every n of the nine
days. As to the number of cigars
smoked each day it all depends upon
the price OF the cigars. The cigars
we're Purchased by the box and at a
reduction on the retail price so that
each men got at least five cigars a
day in all probability even if they
were ten cent smokes.
The grand Jury for the December
term was never formally discharged
as it was expected they would be
called together again before the April
term opened. They had their
expectations realized and when the
treasurer Strengthened up his books he
found a balance of seventy-fiye cents,
which he by letter asked Mr.. Brown
what he should do with it. Mr.. Brown
wrote him back that he thought it
would be a good scheme to invest the
balance in government bonds and with
the interest thereon build summer
homes for the members OF the grand
jury and their families.
Mr.. Brown yesterday received by
express from the grand jury through
a committee consisting of Messrs.
Louis Wolfson, A. l.. Mundy and Rob
ert J. Smith, as a token of their
esteem, a handsome pair Of gold cuff
buttons, with a diamond in each. He
highly appreciates the gift.

Editor EVENING NEWS:


After rea ing your report of the

{ cannot but smile up my sleeve at
heir sudden determination to settle
he heating contract for the addition
10 school. No. to the highest bidder,
Mr.. Kellogg. 1t is not the fact that
Mr.. Kellogg got the contract so much
rs it is the fact that the school board
seemed to be in so much haste about
settling the matter now when the APP
preparation for doing the work has
not been made. And that isn't all.
At this same session there was another
bid laid on the table, before any OF
the bids had peen opened By Mr..
Kelly, of Kelly & McAlinden. This
bid was not opened as it was declared
by both the secretary and president to
nave arrived too late. This bid. if
lower than either of the other two
bidders and furthermore it conformed
with all the requirement. This fact
some, if not all the members of the
board know.
Now [ ask in the face of all these
things if the click in the school
Board think that they are working in
