Game of Bridde

When bridge was established a COM
mittee Of three members Of the Port
land was appointed in December, 1885,
to draft the required code Of rules for
the new game. The task was a diff
cult one, as their knowledge Of the
game was at that early stage very
elementary one, but the work was so
skilfully and successfully done that
the code Of laws then drawn up lasted
practically unaltered for period OF
ten years, and stood the test OF cover
ing all the debatable points Of the
game.
There laws were issued early in 1895.
and in July Of the same year they
were submitted to Joint committee
OF the Portland and Turf clubs, and.
being passed with a few unimportant
alterations, they became the standard
laws of English bridge, and remained
so until another joint committee OF the
same clubs issued the Revised Laws
Of Bridge" at the end OF 1904.
There never was any game about
which so many people have aired
their different opinions. Between 1904
and 1906 something like one hundred
books were published dealing entire
" with the practice Of bridge, and the
list is not yet completed. They still
come. Hardly a week passes without
some fresh aspjrant to literary fame
setting forth his views under an al
Turing title.

The British army was once in

the man undertaking the task. At
last man did volunteer. He was a
newcomer to the army.
On the night prior to the date
fixed for the execution they locked
up the hangman in a stable to keep
him safe. In the morning the. party
at the gallows waited, but there was
no hangman. He had gone mad dur
Ing the night, or else he was now
Stimulating madness.
The officer In command turned TO
one Of his Captains with: Captain,
you will have the goodness to hang
the prisonerw The Captain changed
countenance, but he pulled himself
together, and appealed to the serge
ants with: (Which of you will hang
this MANI"
And to spare his Captain, one Of the
men volunteered. He afterward had
the satisfaction OF. Aogging the man
who had volunteered and failed
