Augusta, Ca, March 21.-John D.
Rockefeller will leave Augusta Monday
for Richmond. Va, where he will re-

mond he will go to Hot Springs, Va,
for a month or six weeks, and from
that city will proceed to New York.
In an interview Mr.. Rockefeller said

been treated here as a horned devil,
but as a human being and gentle
man."
During the weeks that he has spent
here the oil magnate has passed most
of his days playing golf and touring
the country in his big electric auto

AMATEUR WRESTLER A SURPRISE
Cornell d Opens Eyes of the
New York Wise Ones.

New York Wise Ones.
NEW YORK, june e.-The first surprise
Of the Olympic tryouts came last Tuesday
night, when Lee ]. Talbot of C1nell, the
giant weight-thrower of the Irish-American
Athletic club. captured the heavyweight
wrestling bout. Until a few days before
the bout few followers of athletics were of
the belief that the field athlete even con-
templated making a bid for wrestling
honors. with scarcely any training in
wrestling. Talbot hurried from his studies
at Ithaca and arrived in this city to try
his hand at the graphing game. He was
without the necessary wrestling toys and
was compelled to compete in a pair Of run
ming toys which he borrowed from one Of
his eliminates. Although he did not sue
coed in throwing his opponents, he so far
outclassed them that at the expiration of
the time limit he was awarded the decision.
Those who saw him compete declared that
with a months training Talbot would de-
velop into one of the greatest amateur
heavyweight wrestlers in the country.
While Talbott's victory practically as
sures him Of making the Olympic team,
wrestling is not the only event in which he
is likely to win points. In hammer throw
ing, handling the discus and putting the
shot there are few men in the country his
superior. With the discus he ranks sec
ond in the east TO Martin Sheridan, and
throwing the hammer he is the man John
Flanagan and Matt McGrath, the cham
pions, fear most.
While talking about the weight throwers
recently, John Flanagan said: IT really
think Talbot is the coming champion, in
fact he is within striking distance of the
best men in the country today. He is
young and powerfully built, and is improv-
ing every day. While McGrath and myself
might beat him this year and perhaps
next there is no doubt in my mind that
within two years the boy will defeat u.s."
While Flanagan is in excellent condi.
ton and will in all probability make the
Olympic team. there is great doubts as to
whether McGrath will accompany the team.
His knee is in bad shape, and because OF
the pain from It he has been able to do
little or no training. With McGrath Out
Talbot is likely to win second place with
the weights in the tryoUts and score points
for America in the Olympic games.

rubbish. In spite Of this he played a guoki
grand.
He found the fourth jack and the NINE Of
hearts In the skat. and although he laid
away both his tens. he lost his game IN
four tricks. The opening lead was the ace
Of spades. on which the queen fell. fol-
lowed by the nine Of diamonds. won by
the ace. Tn ten Of spades was fattened
by the ace Of clubs. giving the adversaries
fifty points. The player had to trump the
next trick, and in the erd the ten Of hearts
beat him.
So far, therefore. as these Enhanced values
are concerned they would seem to cut both
ways in the hands OF the New York
players, and those who have been accus-
toned to the league values will have moth
ing to fear except being overbid. provided
they resist the temptation to overreach
themselves in trying to win games which
are more valuable but less sound.
1t is probably true that the New York
players will make some big point scores II
they are in luck, but. on the other hand,
Is must not be forgotten that the loss of u
single guckser. which might have been won
as a solo or tournee. takes three games
won to make up for 1t, because a lost guck-
ser loses double.
ohdt ~ younB yet 50 Tar ~ It's Iedl SCleh-
tific aspects are concerned and we shall
probably not know much about the game
until we get down to duplicate. Nobody
dreamed what there really was In whist
until they introduced the duplicate system
at he annual congresses of the American
Whist league. although people had played
whist for $50 years and many persons
thought they knew It all.
A movement is already on foot to follow
the big skat congress this year with a dupll-
cate skat tournament just to see what
difference there really is between the two
schools of play. 1t would certainly be in
teresting to see whether the 'guck-to-find"
players in New York would hold their own
in a contest against the 'guck-to-lay-away"
players Of the league school.
In the meantime 1t is safe to say that we
really do not know much about the COM
p~arative value OF the various systems OF
play, except theoretically. The motto Of
the league player is: Win less games, but
don't lose any" while the motto of the New
Yorker seems to be: Don't be afraid to
take a chance"

NEW YORK, June 6-About 5000 skat
players from all parts OF the country viii
assemble in New York on June q to a
mart in a tournament which Will last Tor
two DAYS. In anticipation OF the event the
visiting players are discussing the aues-
t,on-what advantage will the New York
players derive from their having put a
value upon certain games to which the
players from other parts Of the country
are not accustomed7
The games which are in dispute between
New york and the rest Of the country are
the grands. in which Jacks are the onp
trumps. The difference between the two
schools and the compromise which has been
suggested between them are shown IN the
following table:
Omaha daily bee., 1908-06-07

This is an, unlosable heart solo. but the
player who held these cards was so fas-
cinated by his three jacks that he declared
| a guckser, hoping to find something in the
skat. II only another diamond to lengthen
out that suit a bit. He found. two small
clubs and lost his game, although he laid
away the singleton spade and the ten of
diamonds. AS the cards lay he would have
lost his game. no matter what he laid away
or had he kept the hand as II was and
played a grand solo.
Skat players who have been taught the
game on the basis of the league values
take into consideration the fact that there
are eight principal cards, the four Jacks
and four aces. and when they have half of
those cards. such as three aces and three
Jacks. or three Jacks and three aces. or two
aces and two Jacks, they are strong enough
play a tournee II they are not long enough
in one suit to play a solo or have not tens
enough to stand a grand.
This is going back, as 1t were, from the
unsafe solo to the consideration Of a safe
or cheap tournee, and experience has
proved that the method Is sound. The New
York player, on the other hand. proceeds
from the consideration of the unsafe solo
not to the safer and cheaper tournee but
to the dearer and more risky guckser.
with the majority Of those who have been
in the habit of playing gucksers at eighteen
It will be found the rule is to play gucksers
with two jacks and two aces. trusting the
skat to fill out the hand. II Is very nice
when it goes your way.
The league player, with whom the unit
value of the guckser is twelve only, looks
upon It simply as a resource In hands
which would be grands but for unguarded
tens. 1t Is very seldom indeed that he will
turn a solo into a guckser, because there
is little or nothing to gain and everything
TO lose.
The three points difference in the totaI
value of a spade solo with two and a
gucki grand with two are not worth the
risk OF losing thirty-six points extra II
the guckser goes wrong. That would be
playing a ten to one shot. But the New
York player stands to win fifty-four witt
the guckser II he succeeds. as against
thirty-three with the solo. and it is this
difference that tempts him to take tho
chance.
Playing q league values Il is a funda.
mental principle Of the game that on
] should never play a guckser for the pur.
pose OF finding something, but only to pro
vide an opportunity to lay something away
The first is a case of depending on the
skat to give you a game which you have
not got. The second is a case of making
sure OF points which should win the gamt
you have In hand.
The typical guckser for a league player
would be such cards as the following II
Vorhands
Omaha daily bee., 1908-06-07

they may ind In the skat instead OF stick
ing to the solid principles OF the game. But
this IL true only when the guckser Is played
at the nhanced value, and that Is why
many players believe that the league acted
wisely ia fixing II at twelve for a unit
value, so as to discourage this gambling
cement.
Even the risk Of losing double does not
seem to be enough to keep the New York
players from taking the chance. Their
motto seems to be Eau guckser, aut nullis."
SO far from the greater value OF the
grands being any advantage to the local
players In the tournament, II Is more than
probable that the confirmed habit OF try
ing for more than the hand is legitimately
worth will be a serious handicap. In spite
Of the numerical superiority Of the eastern
players, the chances are decidedly in favor
of a player educated in the sounder meth
DDS Of league values carrying off the prin-
clpal prize.
As an illustration OF the difference be-
tween the two schools take the following
cards held by vorhand in a recent game:
Bio 81 10 AZ
As a heart solo this game is practically
impossible to lose. While It is true that
such a game is worth only rifty points. It
Is a sure shot.
Under the league valuations a gucki
grand would be worth only ten MORE, but
under the New York values 1t would be
worth ninety, so the player who held these
cards took the chance OF finding some
thing and made it a gucki. In the skat
we're a small club and the queen Of spades,
so that his venture in going to the cushion
instead Of taking the sure shot cost him a
difference OF 800 points on the score sheet
because he had to pay each Of three play
ers $50 instead Of winning from each Of
them fifty.
Here is another example from a recent
tournament of how these enhanced values
