PLAYING BILLIARDS ON TRAINS
Threatened Innovation On the over
land Puts Rivals on the
Blink.

Through sleepers; buffet, library and
billiard coaches; handsome observation
cars and diners. Extract from prospect
i've Union Pacific folder. If the plan to
install billiard tables on limited trains is
carried out.
Billiards on the train! That sounds as
If it might have been concocted by the
corresponding secretary of the Ananias
club. but rumor in railroad circles says
It is an impending actually. a quiet
game Of billiards while the express train
whirls the players away to the Pacific
coast; a little string OF 5 points TO
while away that impatient hour when
the diner is crowded and a second table
must be awaited: z few games of halk
line while the porter is making up the
berths-it sounds too good to be true.
Nevertheless, it is actually under con-
sideration and may become a reality any
day.
Last week a test trip was made over the
Union Pacific out of Chicago for the pur-
pose of determining whether billiards
could be played on a moving train. a
table was Installed on one of the capacious
observation cars on that line and the
train vas run at regular speed, without
regard to the game in progress
within. The results are said to have been
remarkable. The side-to-side motion of
the car is understood to have been so
regular that one motion neutral!zed the
other and In consequence the balls re-
manned stationary. The gradient Of the
Union Pacific being one of it's remarkable
features. it was found that there were
long intervals when the slope of the table
was so inconsidersble that IL had no
effect on the game. This may be under
stood when II is known thatsthe maximum
rise between Denver and Omaha on the
Union Pacific is 16 feet.
Naturally, some difficulty was eXper-
fenced when the train started and stopped,
but once under way the game is said to
have been feasible TO a degree almost I'M
believable. II the Union Pacific mechan-
les can devise some means of automatic
ally adjusting the table to the level as
the train ascends or descends a grade,
there is every probability that billiard
tables will soon be installed as part. of

 SEEMS NEAR
Judge Kent Adds to the Cheering Impression
His Return Yesterday From His Vacation of Three Months.

Chief Justice Kent returned yester- day morning from his vacation which this year was heightened at both ends. He left Phoenix little earlier than usual to attend the reunion of his class at Harvard, 'S3, on June 25, and his return was delayed by his attendance at trial at Denver of a case in which he had been formerly an attorney and in which his presence as a witness was desired. The trial took place on Sep tember %.
 However, Judge Kent on his return found nothing urgently demanding his presence. Court had been adjourned by the commissioner to October 1. Judge Kent is hopeful of a conclusion of the case of Hurley vs. Abbott and others next week The evidence has all been heard so that there is nothing to do but to hear the arguments of the attorneys, receive briefs and to make computations and tables from the evidence which has been submit ted, the tables showing the lands en- titled to water in the order of their priority. If the lawyers are prepared to attend to the legal phase of the
  within a week.
 The first Monday in october is the time for the opening of court at Flor ence but it will not. this year, be opened until the second Monday so that there will be plenty of time for the disposition of the water case.
 The summer vacation, said Judge Kent. was one of the most pleasant he had ever enjoyed. The class reunion which was merged into the commence ment exercises of the university began on Sunday previous to the main events at Appleton Chapel, Cambridge, at which there were addresses by those members Of the class who had entered the ministry On the following day the members were entertained at the country home of one of the members at Gloucester, Mass, where took place the baseball game in which Judge Kent acquired international fame as an umpire. That day was further spent | in summer amusements, golf. tennis | boating. etc. The next event of the reunion was the class dinner the fol- | lowing day at the Country club at which were seated 13O of the surviving members of the class of 'S3.
 On the next day took place the com mencement dinner. at which Judge Kent represented his class. Of this event. the Harvard Bulletin of July said:
