50. matte Gun.

New York, Jan. 27.-Resolutions
condemning the use Of the so-called
automatic shotgun in the hunting Of
birds and other game and requesting
the New York legislature to pass a
law prohibiting the use Of the weapon
for such purpose were passed at the
annual meeting Of the New York Zoo
logical society.
Bills for such law will be intro
duced in the legislatures Of thirteen
states this winter. There are already
about $4,000 Of these destructive
weapons in the United States, and
should each Of them, on an estimate
which the society considers conserva.
tive, kill 100 birds year there will
be 100000 birds killed in the next
twelve months.
A game protective bureau has beer
established at 1859 Broadway for the
purpose Of pushing the agitation.

BOY WIZARD HAS 4
RIVAL NEAR OWN ACE
Chicago Youth, Demarest, Bids
Fair to Reach Hoppe 81
schaefer Glass. lI

Chicago, Jan. 27.-Since the death Of
Frank Ives there has never been an
American billiard player who could
take equal rank with q Wizard" Jake
Schaefer when it came to real cham
pionship billiards The rapid develop
ment Of Willie Hoppe ind'catesthat he
will succeed to the crown still worn by
Schaefer, but aside from Hoppe there
has been no youth of championship
caliber developed in the last decade.
A rival to Hoppe has now appeared
in this city. In Calvin Demarest, a
youthful expert, experienced cue WELD
ers believe they are bringing to the
front boy who will soon be able to
class with Schaefer and Hoppe. He is
youngster not yet out of his teens;
but he has defeated the best amateurs
Of Chicago and is still improving.
Rise Is Remarkable.
Demarest was unaware Of his ability
until he went thru course of instruc-
tion. Less than two years ago he could
not handle cue. He first attracted
attention by his awkwardness at the
table. He began to haunt a Chicago
by Lanson w. Perkins, billiard in
structor.
'fHe gave the most awful exhibition
ever saw" said Perkins, in telling
Of the incident. "He had not the
slightest idea of how to hold a cue. but
he was 80 earnest I gave him lessons
at his own terms. He soon began to
improve at great rate.
Wins ALI Prizes.
"Then Mussey arranged straight
rail tournament for nine of my best
pupils, and Demarest went into it. He
won all of the prizes.
His average was six and his grand
average 41a. He made high run Of
A. He never lost a game. That was
seven months ago. Then for time I
had to stop him from playing, for he
was learning the game too rapidly, and
was developing some bad points. One
IF these, too much driving, he still
shows traces of.
t'The most remarkable thing about
the boy is the fact that from that
tournament he Immediately jumped
into class A, with the champion Of

| straight rail tournament was decided
| about seven months ago and two
months ago he had two matches with
! Conklir as tryout and lost both Of
them. Conklin played him 1900 to
1000, and the boy averaged around s.
Then he got into the handicap that was
decided a short time ago, and was

. Won Every Game.
| ttIn this tournament he did not lose q
game. beating Conklin in hard game
and closing with an average Of one In
ming worse than 10. This is truly re-
markable, and will entitle the boy to
consideration with the best of them.
In seven innings of recent baIk-
/ line practice match he scored sS5
points. The innings were not consecu-
tive, but taker out of score of 5O0-
point match. This shows an average
Of close to 4s. The young cue expert
closed the game with an average of a
trife short Of twenty. This indicates
the speed he is capable of.
Demarest will be considered as cam
didate in class A for the championship
of America at the Chicago Athletic as
sociation in March.
