AMATEUR BILLIARDS.
Conklin Wins His Third Game in
Tournament.

NEW YORK. April 13.-Charies +.
Conkln of the Chicago Athletic Associa-
ton scored his third victory in the 49,
balkline amateur billiard tournament at
the Hamilton Club. Brooklyn, yesterday.
He defeated Morris d. Brown of the
Hamilton Club in the afternoon game by
score of 400 to 247. Conklin played a
good, consistent game from start to fin
ish. His drives were we'll judged and he
nursed prettily and with delicacy. Brown
started off well and made a fine run of
AZ in his fourth inning, and this he fol-
lowed with Is. which made his total 81
in the fifth inning to Conklin's 40. Imme-
diately following these innings Conklin
began the steady cushion caroms. inter-
spersed with occasional bits of close work
when the balls rolled into the corners.
The innings in question produced % and
80 respectively, and from that to the
completion of the match he was never
headed by Brown. Sixteen times Conklin
caused his runs to mount to double
figures. the best of the lot being run of
80 made on his twenty-eighth turn
During the last inning almost three
cushion carom game was developed, so
that the points came hard for both. The
balls rolled widely and for leaves spread
the length of the table. Conklin finally
overcame the difficulties. completing his
string with unfinished 10 that con-
tanned more closely unanswered caroms
than all the rest Of his game.

Georgia School of Technology and a
squad Of policemen were the participants
in q somewhat bloody encounter yester-
day afternoon at the athletic grounds of

The offender was placed under arrest
and a number of his friends attempted to
wrest him from the custody of the Off
GERS. pitched battle ensued. in which
the policemen used their night sticks
freely. and which ended only after The
arrival of reserves in response to a riot
call.
Two of the students were taken to po-
lice headquarters and charge of dis
orderly conduct lodged against them.
The combatants in the ARRAY came off
the field in a somewhat bruised and
bloody condition. The students claim
