ny Ia MARoursE DE FONTENOY.

~ ING ALBERT of Belgium can fair
K ~ Law claim TO be the most

world. For in thu throne room OF MS

the foreign ambassadors and MINI STEERS
for the cabinet officers and for the
great dignitaries of state with ther
wives. Those OF the King and queen
are in no sense different from any of
the others.
Perhaps the only thing that is not
democratic at the court OF Brussels Il
that a certain apartment. known as the
Blue salon. IS restricted 10 the use OF
a limited number of personal frlenos

Moley Arrives Here This Week
WITH THE BILLARDISTS

George Sutton is making astonishing
runs and the averages in daily practice at
his Chicago room in preparation for his
800 point 1872 balk line match for the
worlds championship with William
Hoppe the title holder which will be
held on the night of February in the
ballroom of Hotel Astor New York
city
A single average of 81 is the poorest
performance recorded by Sutton in fort
night, and at that the veteran finished
his 500 points with high run of lbs. He
plays alone most of the time, as he
finds difficulty in securing anyone fast
enough to give him an interesting game.
Averages of 80 and 60 runs of 200 and
upward are frequently made by the for
mer champion, which speed he attributes
largely to his improved physical condi-
ton
Undaunted by his tough defeat at the
hands of Ora Morningstar recently at
Pittsburg, in their match for the Isl
championship, Sutton is confident of beat
ing the great Hoppe. 1t was against
Willie that he made his worlds record
single average OF 100 fat, years ago. and
he claims to be just as good now, though
admitting he slumped during a period of
four or five years. He feels that a 30
average will take Hopes measure and
he is willing to wager he VIII go better
than that. In fact, Sutton predicts he
will average 40 in the coming struggle.
HIS Chicago friends are skeptical, but
they are living in hope and know George
