however. that only those will be allowed
within the doors who hold tickets, said
tickets being obtainable free of charge
from Prof. Joyce, director of the affair
Inasmuch as the entries do not close
until the beginning of the first match this

mat artists will take part. The names on
the list to date, however. make 1t certain
that there will be plenty of sport on the
cards. The entrants will be cassed in
groups. each group containing. men who
weigh within six pounds OF each other
The wedding out will then be done until
all are eliminated from each group but
two, these two being left for the finals
Each bout will be limited to six minutes
In case no fall Is secured by the end Of
two rounds. the award will be made on
points.
An interesting feature of the evening
Will be the appearance of the Blue and
Gray team for the first time 1t is not
likely. however. that many Of them will
wrestle since the majority have had spe-
cial matches arranged.
Prof Joyce will referee all bouts, while
John Merkling will handle the watch
These two men have had full charge Of
promoting the tourney. and they are both
confident that 1t will be a big success.

BIG WHIST MEETING.
New York, Virginia and Washing
ton Clubs to Play.

BALTIMORE, Md, February 17.-Tne
Baltimore Whist Club is busily pre-
pairing for the contest which will take
place on February 90. Entries are be-
ing received daily by the chairman Of
the match committee. ithe latest being
from the West Point Whist Club. The
captain. Mr.. John Lloyd Tabb, promises
to bring a large representation from
one of the most successful clubs in
Virginia, with hopes Of making an eX-
cellent showing.
Entries have also been received from
the Knickerbocker Whist Club of New
York and from the Scranton Whist
Club of Scranton. Pa. Additional en-
E. Tolcott, who for three seasons in
succession captained the winning
championship team of Cleveland: also
Charles r. Watson and c. P. Talliferro,
who now holds the knickerbocker
championship.
1t is possible that f. C. Arnold and
]. c. Mcdonald, who are now the At
lantic champions. will also appear. to-
gether with Fl. II. Ward of Boston and
Keen Addington of Chicago.
The committee in charge at first con-
templated changing the rules to per-
nit some woman applicants to enter
this contest, but finally decided against
such a course.
Miss Martha Campbell and Mrs. E. X
Beddall of New York had been per-
mitted to enter it is likely that this
pair would have made a fine showing.
They rank with most of the prominent
players. and they hold their own in any
contest. Miss Campbell has for three
years been member of the champion
ship team in the women's contest. and
in addition to these honors she won
last summer at the Mems Whist con-
gress the associate members cup In
this latter event the strong Baltimore
pair, Mr.. and Mrs. John McEldowney.
were second. and when Miss Campbell
and her partner can surpass this strong
pair the local contingent will know
what they escaped by barring these
women from their contests.
The contest on the I'D promises to
be an annual affair. and there is some
talk of having Kirk & Sons make for
1t large loving cup. similar to the
Atlantic whist cup. which has twice
been won by local experts.
Washington promises to send a large
number to this event. Mr.. w. r. Lewis
and Mr.. Fleming Lavender of WASH
fngton. who made such wonderful
showing in the Minneapolis contest last
July, will certainly represent the Capt.
tai city and Baltimore experts must
look out for their laurels.

Mavonnaise DRESSING.

In making mayonnaise dressing be
sure to have fresh eggs. It is very inn
portant. It is better to use an egg.
beater than a spoon in mixing the con-
diments, and a little lemon juice is not
amiss in this dressing. II you wish
to have light and fluffy mayonnaise,
add a cup of whipped cream just be
fore the dressing Is sent to the table.
The lack OF cream is what makes the
mayonnaise in most restaurants such
an oily and sad affair.

The Battleship Commission held
meeting at the office of the Governor
yesterday, those present being Gov
ernIor Noel, Director Dunbar Rowland,
of the Department of History and Mrs
Eunice Lockwood, of Crystal Springs.
The Commission found it would be
impracticable to have the presentation
of the silver service ON the 31st day
of May. for the reason that the day
previous is Sunday, and a great many
neoplee avoid travelling on the Sabbath
II possible, and for the further reason
that the summer rates to the coast
towns will be i'm force froal and after
June 1, and great many will take
advantage of the first sale to get
down to the presentation ceremonies.
June 1 was therefore definitely fixed
as the date for the presentation, and
/ a. m. the time of day.
The request of the Mayors League
to have the presentation ON May 81
was given careful consid eration,. but
the Commission could not see 1t that
way. under the circumstances.

| ted to proceed to Biloxi i'm advance OF

and make adj local arrangements for

purchase of 500 souvenirs of the
event, same to be badge bearing tn
