West. of course, won with the single.
ton ace. and now West decided that
Mr.. Jacoby had nothing tn spades.
Hence, he promptly laid down the
queen of that suit which, Of course,
was taken by the ace in dummy.
The Jack Of clubs was now led.
East played the queen, declarer the
king. and West discarded . low heart.
Another club was led, West discarding
q second heart, and East winning with
the ten. East now led the ten OF
spades, Mr. Jacoby winning with the
Jack in his cwn hand.
At this point Mr.. Jacoby had taken
four tricks and had four absolutely
high cards (dummy's king Of spades,
his own ace-king Of hearts and the
seven Of clubs). A ninth trick had
to be produced somewhere. Mr.. ia
coby led the ace Of hearts, West fol-
lowing, and East discarding the deuce
of diamonds. Now Mr.. Jacoby was
ready to count the hand.
Vests spade lead was obviously .

ing was two spades, queen-small, six
hearts to the queen-ten-nine. four
diamonds, and the singleton ace OF

clude the ace, West would have opened
the bidding. Therefore, Mr.. Jacoby
knew that East must hold that card.
Mr.. Jacoby laid down the king OF
hearts and East had no defense.
Should he discard q spade, Mr.. ia
coby would have two tricks In that
suit; while should he throw away his
good club, Mr.. Jacoby would lead q
spade. win with the king in dummy,
and throw East in with another spade.
Accordingly, East decided to throw
the ten of diamonds. Mr.. Jacoby
promptly played a low diamond from
his own hand and ducked in dummy,
East's ace being forced to 60 up. East
now cashed the thirteenth club, and
was forced to concede the last two
tricks to dummy's kings Of spades and
diamonds.

Christmas Club disbursements by local banks this year will total over a half million dollars, survey by The Democrat today disclosed. This sum is considerably larger than the figure for 1885 and in the case of two banks the payments will be twice as large, practically, as they were year ago. The 1895 Christ mas Club figure here was almost $40O,00O.
 The figures obtained from the lo- eel banks compare with nationwide Information obtained. Throughout the country an upgrade in Christ mas Club savings is noted for 1886, reflecting increased earning power of the general public. The release of over half million dollars in Christmas Club checks in Water bury on December 1st will aid business conditions here greatly, it is assured.

 Though indicating he possibly would grant the writ, Judge McLel- Ian added he would be "slow to ir- terfere with state authorities in their attempt to do their duty.
 Defense Counsel George B. Lourie, former assistant attorney-general argued that Bartolini was held ile- gally because his detention order named no specific murder defendant, but merely John Doe"
 Questioned by Judge Mcclellan, Dewing admitted the John Doe murder warrant certainly does not refer to any specific person but rather to any person whom he later may charge with the crime"
 Following adjournment of the hearing, Dewing conferred with Captain John F. Stokes, Lieutenant Inspector Joseph L. Ferrari and Lieutenant- Detective John F. Demp- sey, all of the state police, and Chief Edward F. Butler of the Wey- mouth police.
 'T'll have statement tomorrow afternoon" Dewing told newsnaen. Meantime, don't worry about MT, Bartoiini being released from jail.
