Adams Prize MaIIe4 Contest.

An innovation this year is the Adams Prize Mallet contest, made pos sible by E. c. Adams. The rules and regulations governing this contest are set forth in the following letter which was recently received by the secre- tary, Arthur L. Peale: National Roque Association, Norwich,
 Conn
 The National Roque Association presented me with a, beautiful ebony nickIe steel Toque malIet a couple of years ago as @ token of their appre- citation of certain services that l was able to perform, the possession of which has been a source Of pleasure and pride.
 I have, however, regarded myself as it's custodian until a suitable time for it's being offered as a prize to be won by skill in the great game of roque, which time it seems to me has now arrived. I would therefore, with your permission, beg to be permitted to hand this maIlet over to your commit tee of arrangements and name the conditions that I would like to see adopted in contesting for it's posstssion
 This to be known as the Adams Prize Dallet Contest.
 To be played for on the third court evenings beginning Tuesday evening and closing Friday of the week of the national tournament.
 The president of the National Asso- citation to defend it to start the con- test.
 The first challenger must file his challenge on the bulletin board and to get possession must win two out of three.
 The next name filed shall have the next chance to contest for the ma1Iet, from the one having defended or won it's possession.
 Any member of the National Roque tournament shall be eligible to contest for this nlallet. except any player. who within the period of five years has been a, first division winner
 The holder must defend it whenever challenged but may not be required to begin a game after 10 o'clock in the evening unless agreeable.

Will Look Over Sites.

The representatives of the associa- ton will look over several locations in this vicinity for new courts for the coming tournaments. A new loca- t1on must be secured for next year and it is hoped that the tournament will be kept in this city. Among the loca- tlons mentioned are the grounds own ed by the Norwich Golf club. It is said that some of the members of the Golf club are in favor of giving to the national association necessary ground for the courts if the roque association will stand the expense of putting in the courts. This location would be ideal and would undoubtedly meet with approval of the entire membership of the national association
 Another location spoken of is that of tfe Lowthorpe meadows at Norwich Town. There is plenty of room there and the grounds can be made without filling in, which would be necessary at the golf club. Some Norwich people are already working on this location and it is very probable that an inter esting report will be made at the an nual meeting.
 A member of the association said Monday that he felt sure that it was the idea of the entire membership of the association that they hated to see the tournament taken from Norwich, but that of course there were two other cities at least who were ready and anxious to have it go. One of these is Chicago, which is equipped with the very newest ideas in courts, and the care of them, and has ample

IF TOO FAT GET
 MORE FRESH AIR
BE MODERATE IN YOUR DIET AND REDUCE YOUR WEIGHT. TAKE
 OIL OF KnREIN

Lack of fresh air it is said weakens the oxygen carrying power of the blood, the diver becomes sluggish, fat accun1u- latess and the action of many of the vital organs are hfndered thereby. The heart action becomes weak. work is an effort and the beauty of the figure is destroyed.
 Fat put On by indoor life is un- healthy and if nature is not assisted in throwing it off a serious case of obesity may result.
 When you feel that you are getting too stout, take the matter in hand at once. Don't, wait until your figure has become joke and your health ruined through carrying around a burden of unsightIy and unhealthy fat.
 Spend as much time as you possibly can in the open air; breathe deeply, and get from Lee & Osgood or any druggist a box of Gil of korein cap sules; take one after each meal and one before retiring at night.
 keep up the treatment until you are down to normal. Oil of korein is abso- Iutely harmless. is pleasant to take, helps the digestion and even a few days treatment has been reported to show a noticeable reduction in weight.

Opening of 1916 ROque Tournament
Mayor AyrL Brown Made First Wicket Rockwell Street Csrounds-Severa Games Played on MOnday-Contests Begin for Second Van Wckle Medal and Adams Prize NaIet-Mernbers Express Desire to Keep Tournament In This City

Favored with ideal weather, sunny skies and gentle sbreezes, the 35th an- nual tournament of the National Roque association was formally opened on the grounds at Rockwell street Mon day morning, and from all indications it will be one of the most successful nament opened a day earlier this year than in former years, when playing started on a Tuesday, and to this may be attributed the fact that only a comparatively few games were played throughout the day. A number of the prominent players had not put in an appearance up till late Monday night and it is expected that they will be seen on the courts today and this evening. However, several of the crack first division and second division play CTS were on the courts throughout the day yesterday and four or five lively

Wickle medal and Huot won both games. HuOt is the defender of the cup and must win two more games from Willard to keep possession. The rules call for four games out of seven.
 Gerald Brassill, the boy wonder, has entered the tournament again this year. He appeared for the first time last year and won out in the second division with but one chalk mark against his standing. He is playing strongly this year. Other Norwich players who have entered are Loue Stockwell, a first divisioner, who won ten games and lost but four last year, Clinton Jones, winner of the third di- vision last year, Richard PeaIe and William Willard.
 From present indications the first division will be the largest yet. There will be many x-chanpiOns in the list and the race for the national cham plonship has every appearance of be- ing one of the liVeliest.
 The entertainment committee has arranged to have muSic each evening, beginning tonight. Tonight and Thurs day night Swahn's orchestra will pro- vide concert programme and We'd nesday evening Tubbs Military band will give a concert just outside the grounds. This has been made possible through the courtesy of the court of common council, who have changed the place Of the municipal concert from Union square to a location just outside the grounds for Wednesday evening

FOUR TRACK BRIDGE
 FOR MYSTIC NEXT.
New Structure to Be Started After
 Thames Bridge is Built.

It is reported on fairly god authority that the New Haven road is contem- plating the construction of a new rail- road bridge across the Mystic river to replace the two track structure now in use and that the work on it will commence soon after the operations on the new bridge over the Thames are well under way. It is known that the company Ras been. purchasing land in the vicinity of the bridge with this end in view. Considerable property on the south side of the track has already been purchased on both the east and west sides of the river.
 The installation of four tracks for the railroad between New London and Providence means considerable to Mystic, and there is probably no one in the village who realizes this more fully than does Silas AIaxson. MT. MaXson has sold to the railroad for S1 a strip of land south of the tracks and running the length of his property north of Willow Point casino, the casino theatre and extending nearly to the railroad crossing at School street, West Mystic. It is possible that the switch and side tracks near West ably farther to the east. The railroad company is arranging for the pur- chase of considerable more property south of the tracks between Mystic and Noank and it is expected that building operations will be commenced as soon as negotiations have been completed. Between West Mystic and Noank it will be necessary for the railroad company to do considerable filling in in preparation for it's four track system. The need for four tracks for the New Haven road s Shore Line branch is universally recognized and it is possible that the next few months will see operations for the tracks anG for the new Mystic river bridge under way.
