WHIST RULES I'm I'M 1Mb.
If you the modern game of whist would
know
From this great principle its precepts
flow,
Treat your own hand as to your part
ner's Joined,
And play not one alone, but both COM
bined.
Your first lead makes your partner
understand
What is the chief component of your
hand
And hence there is necessity the
strongest
That your first lead be from the suit
that's longest.
In this, with ace and king, lead king
then ace;
With king and queen, king also has
first place;
with ace, queen, knave, lead ace and
then the queen
With, ace, four small ones ace should
be first seen;
with queen, knave, ten, you let the
queen precede;
In other cases you the lowest lead,
Ere you return your friends, your own
suit play,
But trumps you must without delay,
When you return your partners lead,
take pains
To lead him back the best your hand
contains,
If you received not more than three
at first;
If you had more, you may return the
worst.
But if you hold the master card you're
bound
In some cases to play it second round
whene'er you want a lead it's seldom
wrong
To lead up to the weak or through the
strong.
If second hand, your lowest should be
played,
Unless you mean trump signal to be
made;
Or if you've king and Queen or ace
and king
Then one of these will be the proper
thing
Mind we'll the rule for trumps you OF
ten need them;
When you hold five, tits always right
to lead them;
OF if the lead won't come in time t.
you,
| Then signal to your partner so to do
watch also for your partners truml
request,
| To which, with less than four, pla!
out your best,
To lead through honors turned up i
bad play,
Unless you want the trump suit clear
ed away.
When second hand, a doubtful tricl
you see,
Don't trump If you hold more thai
three;
But having three or less, trump fear
lessly.
When weak in trumps yourself, don
force your friend,
But always force an adverse stron
trump hand
For sequences, stern custom has de
creed.
The lowest you must play if you don
lead,
When you discard, weak suits 70
ought to choose,
For strong ones are too valuable I
lose.

John w. Gates reservation of a suite
of rooms in the new Plaza Hotel, which
will cost him $4,000, has called atten-
ton to the staggering prices paid for
accommodation in the great hotels
and apartment houses of New York.
Fifth avenue, of course, is the street
on which the highest rentals are charg-
ed. At the Holland House, for in
stance, there are suites consisting OF
nothing more than two rooms-a par
lor and a bath-costing $4,000 year
These are corner suites, with a 'front.'
age on Fifth avenue. Fully S5 suites
in this hotel are leased by persons who
are practically permanent guests. No
other city can show anything like such
prices for hotel accommodation, nor
even London during the season, when
all hotel rates are raised from 30 to so
per cent.
At the Waldorf Astoria there are a
number of permanent guests paying in
the vicinity of $4,000 a year for small
suites. Prices of an impressive nature
are likewise the rule among the apart
ment hotels in the Fifth avenue dis
trict. At the Renaissance, on the cor
ner of 4Sd street and Fifth avenue
suites may be made up according to
pleasure of the persons leasing them
at the rate of 5000 to $500 for each room
per month.
In the apartments above the Van
Norden Trust Company, on the corner
OF Fifth avenue and 6Oth street, ten
room suites cost as much as $4,000 a
year. unfinished At the Bolken-
hayn. on the corner of seth street, $4,000
year for a furnished apartment and
$500 for one unfurnished are by nc
means unusual figures. But when Il
is considered that James ]. HIN and
other magnates frequent this region
