rules for leading From the various COM
binations OF honors are comparative
simple.
Always lead the king If you have the

Always lead the ace if you have not
the king OF the suit
Always lead the queen If you have
the jack also and no higher card of the
suit.
Always lead the jack If you have the
ten and no higher card of the suit.
Always lead the ten from X, j. 10,
but from no other combination of cards.
Having led an honor from any COM
bination of high cards, your partner
will Immediately know what the lead
means but, in the case of the king
especially, he may be in doubt to
which of several combinations you have
led from, because you would lead the
king from any one of twelve combina-
tions of high cards, all different Your
second lead should indicate exactly
what you hold.
Suppose you hold A, H. @, and lead
the king. Your partner will know you
have the ace, because your king wins
the trick. If the ace takes your king
he will know that you hold at least the
queen. 1t hardly necessary to say that
If you win the first trick you will win
the next one also if you can, and your
partner knows that you will so on with
a winning card. But in this secondary
lead from the same suit it is most inn

will give your partner some further in-
forma ton.
Remember this golden rule: Never
tell your partner anything he already
knows when you can tell him some
thing that he does not know If you
have led the X from A. X, c. he knows

MEN THAT MANNED
EMPIRE RETURN.
Grew of Filibustering
Steamer Looking for
Agent Harry ]. Hart
WANT THAT BONUS


Twenty members of the crew of the
hlibustering steamer Empire, which
left here May II with arms and am
munitien for the Guatemalan revoIu-
tionists, returned from Corinto yester-
day on the liner City of Panama. Every
man of the twenty is looking for Harry
J, Hart, the ship broker who fxsed
them for the expedition and, they say,
promised them a bonus, of which some
have collected portion but of which
others say they have not seen a cent.
In the event of Hart's failure to come
through they threaten to make full
exposure of everybody connected with
the Empire expedition
The Empire Is now at Acajutea, part
OF the navy of Salvador. The men say
they were forced out Of the ship and
starved into signing clear and accept
ing only part of the money their con-
tract called for.
The Empire left here May II. She
cleared for Corinto, in ballast. Outside
the heads she was oyertaken by q tug
with part of her contraband cargo.
More arms and ammunition were Sc
cured az Tonala, in Mexico and in due
course turned over TO the revolutionary
army.
EMPIRE UNDER FIRE.
The Empire was under fire for few
minutes at Corinto but the occasion
was not particularly serious, although
thrilling while it lasted. President
Zelaya's son, who is described as a
young giant with a thirst for lighting,
had slowed away, with the intention, in
spite of his fathers veto, OF joining the
revolutionary forces
If they send the police after me, ;"
he told those on board ~ take the
whole force. one by one, a-id j. op them
overheard
President Zelaya waited, however,
until the Empire had cot under way.
His batteries then opened fi~e, the shots
crossing her bow. The firing continued
until the Empire stopped. a boatload
OF soldiers then came alongside the
Empire and persuaded young Zelaya
to return to his fathers home.
Apart from that the Empires crew
got no taste Of real war There was dis
sension aplenty on board the steamer
and much laying of grievances before
consular agents. 1t all ended when the
men signed the articles, under COM
pulsion. they say, and boarded the City
Of Panama for home.
Now they are looking for Harry J.
Hart.
SAYS OFFICERS ARE AFRAID.
Captain ~ ". Lieberoth. master of
the Empire, and Lewis Langren. the
mate, did not return with the crew.
The men who arrived yesterday say
their late skipper and his executive Of
ficer will not come back for some time,
being afraid that their connection with
the Empire expedition might cost them
their licenses. George w. Boyd. who
was chief engineer of the Empire, died

Charles Rogers Escapes
From Insane Ward and
Runs About Preside
CAUGHT BYGUARDS

Charles Rogers an insane soldier un-
der treatment at the General Hospital
at the Preside, escaped yesterday
morning from his ward and raised a
great commotion as he scsmpered
about the parade grounds in his en-
deavors TO make his escape into the
city. He. was chased by a number
OF guards and nnally captured ana
aiken back 10 his cell, where he be-
came very violent IL required the
combined strength OF his captors to
finally get him back TO the insane
ward and even after they got him
there he seized a chair and threatened
TO dash their brains out II they at
tempted to come near him. Rogers
was one OF the nineteen prisoners
whom Colonel Torney had on his list
TO take East to the National Insane
Hospital at washington, d. c., last
night
Rogers went insane while in the
Philippines. His type OF insanity was
always regarded by his keepers as
mild. Yesterday morning his guards
told him TO put on his new uniform
and prepare for his trip East. He
readily acquiesced and at once began
making preparations for his departure.
The guard had barely turned his
back TO speak 10 another patient. when
Rogers made q dash out through the
hall into the parade ground and went
like mad toward the Lombard street
entrance. Behind him came a wagon
driven at fun speed. containing a num-
Der OF soldiers, while several mounted
guards Joined in purusit. Rogers was
captured just as he was rushing
through the gates leading from the
post into the city. He fought like an
enraged animal when he was captured.
Later in the day he became composed
and was started East last night.
Among the insane Colonel Torney
took with him was Contract Surgeon

the Philippines about two years ago

back here about two months ago suf-

mapping out the plan of a series
OF articles on the tactics OF bridge
which shall be not onlyinstructive to
the beginner but interesting to the
advanced player. one always encounters
the difficulty OF eliminating eomplica-
tions. 1t is of the greatest Importance
in learning anything that the mind
should be concentrated upon one part
OF the subject at time, and that this
part should be presented under all its
aspects without unnecessary confusion
with other things.
In playing over example hands the
beginner should always be content with
one side-of the play. If he is studying
the dealers end of it. let him confine
himself TO that; If he is anxious to mas
ter the tactics OF the adversaries let
him pay no attention to what the dealer
does, or why. 1t is only when he is
familiar with the tactics OF both sides
that he can combine the two, using the
one as a guide to the other.
The strategy of bridge is usually di-
vided into two distinct parts, the dec
laration and the play. These, l think,
should be treated of in separate articles,
because they are based upon entirely
different conditions and the circum-
stances under which they are considered
are quite distinct. The make or decla-
ration is a matter OF probability, based
on experience; the play is analysis,
based on technical knowledge and OBJ
servation.
After the declaration the first thing
TO demand attention is the opening lead.
II is the most important thing for the
I.
foundation OF good team work with the
partner.
The fundamental principle of leading
is TO show your partner what you hold
in the suits led. 1t is his business to
help you as much as possible. 1t is the
dealers part to infer what his adVer-
saries have in the suits they play, and
how the suit is distributed between
them.
Experience has shown that certain
leads are more advantageous than 9TH
ers. and these leads have become con-
ventional. No one can be considered
a good player who has not mastered
them.
The leads against trump declarations
and against no trumpers have different
objects and must be separately consid-
cred. The leads against trump declara-
tions being the simplest, they should
be mastered first.
In the selection OF a suit the beginner
should be content with the general rule
never to lead trumps- The cases in
which trumps may be led originally
will be better understood after other
tactics have been mastered. As among
the plain suits, that should be selected
which contains the greatest number of
high or winning cards, suits headed by
both ace and king being the best of all.
In bridge the A K Q 10 of any suit
are generally spoken of as honors,
whether they are trumps or not. 1t is
q convenient term to use for all cards
higher than a nine.
In comparing the high cards in the
various suits. in order to determine
which to lead first, ask yourself these
three questions. and as soon as your
hand gives an affirmative answer, lead
that suit.
Have / both ace and king?
Have / three honors in sequence?
Have / two honors in sequence?
Having determined upon the suit, al
ways lead one OF two or more honors
in sequence If you hold them. The
