Fewer Billiard Tables in France.

TON TIE IIOnuOn IPIegrdpn.
Are billiards dying out. and are motor
ing and golf killing them? In 1894 the
French treasury returns noted 5000 bill
lard tables in the country. This year
the figure is only $4,000. The treasury la
ments the fact, not from any disinterest-
ed love for the grand old game, but be-
cause every billiard table pays a heavy
tax. Motoring of course contributes its
full share to the inland revenue here as
we'll as elsewhere, but so far the royal
and ancient pastime. which is quite new
here, pays nothing to the state. How
ever, that may come in due course, and
golf clubs, balls, caddies and links may
be taxed to make up for the shrinkage In
billiard tables.

clear intention to make the test 80

WORK STARTED ON
COAL CREEK CHURCH

Work has been started on the new
union church at Coal Greek and the
contract has been awarded to Perry
and Ray, the new contracting firm
which has started in business in this
city. The contract calls for imme-
diate commencement Of work and
they have till the first of June to
complete the structure. The build
ing will be twenty -four feet wide and
forty three feet long and have seat
ing capacity Of 1870 persons. The
building will be brick structure
and will cost 81 200
The cost of the building is being
borne jointly by the congregations
of the Methodist and Congregational
churches, the site being that upon
which stood the Congregati onal par
sonage near the school house. The
congregations decided some weeks ago
that the town would never again be
large enough to properly support two
churches, hence the conclusion to
unite in the cost of the building.
Both congregations owned their
church lots. and they decided to use
the parsonage site to build on so that
they could sell the other lots in case
the occasion ever arose whereby they
would be in demand. The builders
Of the church are following the ex-
ample set by other builders, namely,
a better class of buildings in future.
