fine work. In the middle West we have

West coast there Is the Pacific Indians
and in Canada the Canadian Indians
Therefore 1t isn't any more than right
that there ehould be an Indian organi-
zation on the Atlantic coast.
The membership is not confined strict
ly to amateurs. Incidentally the mem
bership Is selected from the highest type
of sportsmen, spd the members make
the shoot a great big affair by inviting

AUCTION BRIDGE.
By r, F. FOSTER,

NHB Knickerbocker Whist Club has
adopted new system of play for
the Thursday evening duplicate
games at Its new home, 28 West For
tieth street. TO which all lovers OF auc-
ton are cordially invited.
There has been steadily growing
objection to duplicate auction as gem
orally played, the trouble being chiefly
due to the fact that the methods which
proved SO acceptable in duplicate whist
are not suitable to o, bidding game.
The result has been steady decline
in the attendance at the games for
visitors, who felt that it was not auc-
tion and that average players had no
business in the game.
When the result depended on the num-
Der OF points one could make the ave-
rage players found they had no chance
against such pairs as Lenz and King
or Whitehead and Leibenderfer. unless
they got soma phenomenal gifts from
players who were worse than themselves
Another objection was thSt the games
could never be started on time. as there
was always a long wait to fill up, the
right number OF tables or a section,
and the natural result was n late hour
for finishing One slow couple could
hold up the entire room, every follow
ing table having to wait for them TO
finish their four deals before the L
and w pairs could move up. Then at
the end of the play there was always
a discrepancy in the scores, which 1t
some times took hours to adjust. The
consequence Of all this was that sub
urbanites had to rush for trains and
that many left without knowing what
the result was.

position productive OF mirth at his ex-

moter took up the offer, signed Eddie

pentier has declined an offer Of $4,000

make so ridiculous an offer. Dempsey

PETER MANNING TO FRONT

by w. II. GOCHER.

The three heat system of racing Is
proving farce when used for small
purses or slow classes at the tail end or
the season, where there Is betting. When
one OF the starters wins the first two
heats a faster one usually shows In
front in the third and convinces the
majority OF the spectators that It could
have won II driven out. Also when there
are three heat winners and fourth mile
Is required to determine the winner
the drivers are. as a rule. busy trying
to shoe each other ip and by so doing
,void a winrace instead of giving the
public contest.
In one race at Syracuse the first heat
was won in 2:07A and the fourth in
:19&. In another race at Poughkeepsie
the first heat was won in 2 :0s% and
the fourth in 2:15. Others that are
even more fragrant could be cited. 1t
also shows that any system under which
the winner of the last heat does not get
the big end Of the purse Is. as Geers re-
marked, a clever source Of cheating. The
three heat system Of racing has had a
thorough test for two years and Is now
near the discard.
AS substitute, Ed A. Upton sug-
gests that the two in three rule be
amended SO that II the race Is not ter
minated In two heats all OF the starters
shall remain in until after the third heat,
after which only heat winners can start
II another mile is necessary. This would
limit a race under any conditions to
four heats unless there was dead heat.

His opponent will be Harold Farese, a

breast of Valger. who has been unable
to obtain a match with the Clevelander

Brown and Valger are clever boxers and

which was not allowed by the referee.
and has made II interesting for many
other lghtweights.
The fourth bout on the card will in
troduce Al Roberts. the Staten Island
knockout expert, in bout with Charlie
Weinert. the Newark Adonis. Roberts
tried some months ago to stop Weinert
and failed, but the Staten Islander is
ambitious and will try again. II
Weinert is in good condition when he
enters the ring, he should again baffle
Roberts, for the Jerseyman is much su-
perior in boxing to the thumper from
Staten Island. The interest in this
match will be in the effort of weinert
to avoid a sleep punch. and It looks
as though he would be successful.
