THE pUClLISTS.
BOXING IN
 THIS. STATE
An Effort Being Made to Get a Bill Through legis- lature-Nelson Agrees to Meet Young Corbett.

Although the proposition has been guarded as more or less of q secret, it may now. be. stated on usually reliable authority that bill providing for I more liberal law in regard to boxing ill Connecticut will next week be pre- scented to the legislature, and, more over, that it has been promised the ap- prOval of several of the lawmakers whose backing will go far toward in- surfing its passage.
 Thanks to the complaisance of the authorities in an adjoining township. the sports of New Haven have found little difficulty in pulling off interesting bouts with delightful regularity, the ring being pitched in hall just out side the city limits, within easy reach of the trolley cars.
 But in Bridgeport, Waterbury, Hart ford and even in New London the sport has languished, although occa- siOnal outbursts have been noted ill Bridgeport. Serious injury to a boxer in that city, however, put an end to the sport year ago, and matters are now at a standstill in Mayor Mulvi- hills bailiwick.
 While the farming element is, as usual. far in the majority in the legis. lature, the cities have this year gener' ally contributed business men of un' usually high standing in their respect i've communities. and nearly every one is liberal minded and disposed to give the lovers of boxing a show. With their united backing it is believed thai the proposed bill will go through and that Governor Roberts will approve it

BILLIARDS.

The game of billiards may lay claim to great antiquity. for in Anthony and Cleopatra Shakespeare makes Cleopatra say: Let Us to billiards" :" and so, unless We accuse the great poet of an error in chronology, we have traced the game back to period before the Christian era. In early times. a similar game was played on the grass or turf with stones, and lat CT with balls of lignum vitae and oth- or substances. How to apply the right twist" or English" to the cue ball Is one of the most interesting and i'm portant clements in the art of good playing. In early times only two white balls were used, and each play CT sought simply to pocket the ball of his opponent. The red ball was intro duced as a novelty to keep the game from dying out. As time has gone on. the game has had varied develop ment in different countries. In Spain they play with three balls and five wooden pins which are set up in the middle of the table. In Russia they play with five balls. two white and a red, blue and yellow one. The Eng. fish game Is played quite differently from the American and French games. It is q combination of the American games of both pool and billiards. being played on a table having pockets as in an ordinary pool table. and the points as scored in both of the American games being counted. The French and American games are played with three balls upon table without pock. cts, and only 'canons" or ''caroms' are counted. In America the game Oi billiards has undergone rapid dc velopment on account of the great skill attained by American players Early in the last century the game was commonly played with four balls upon pool table. more or less like the present English game. for both pock eting balls and making caroms were counted: but in time this style ol playing proved so simple that table was adopted without any pockets in fl and caroms only were counted.-- | Outing.

 In French Cabinet.
 PARIS, Feb. 1O-The Rouvier minis try presented in the chamber of depu- ties the draft of new bill for the sep aration of church and state. This meas. urs has been anxiously awaited. owing to doubt raised by friends of former Premier Combes concerning the sinceri. ty of the new ministry in carrying for ward the policy of separation. When, therefore, Minister of Public Instruc- tion Bienvenu Martin presented the bill in the chamber of deputies 1t was greeted with long applause.
 The bill comprises thirty-two arti- cles. and the text of article is as fol- lows
 'The state henceforth neither recog- nizes nor contributes to any religious denomination. Public establishments of religion now existing are suppressed. All religious budgets of appropriations of government departments or com munes are suppressed. The exercise of religion is hereafter free. under the sole restriction that exercise must ac- cord with public order The article abolishing the concordat says:
 All laws and orders relative to the public organization or recognition of a religious denomination are abrogated, particularly the law ratifying the con yention made between the pope and the ! French government"
 It is expected that the new bill will be debated in the chamber of deputies at an early date.

 ,Gotch is without fear and has conti- dence in his wrestling ability: lie doesn't believe Hackenschmidt can beat him. The best evidence that he is sin cere is his willingness to make a match A substantial offer will be sent to Hackenschmidt at once. Gotch says Madison Square Garden will be the place for the match. He also said

IS CHANGED AGAIN.

Once more has President Johnson changed the date of the American league schedule meeting. It is now planned to hold the session on Febru- ary 16, next Thursday, at the Hotel Breslin, instead of on Tuesday. Next week, by the way, will be busy one among base ball men in the big leagues. On Tuesday the National leagues board of directors will con vene at the Hotel Victoria to discuss the charges against Pitcher Jack Tay. Tor. On Wednesday the National league will begin its annual schedule meeting, with the American league fol. lowing Oh the next day. There will also be a session of the National base i,9ll commission on one of these days so that there will be plenty of food for ball fans to digest.
