A colored man, giving his name as Henry Parker and his age as fifty-five, was ar- rested late yesterday afternoon by Police- man Reno Passeno at the entrance to the Aqueduct bride upon the complaint cf Officer Watson, who is detailed to work cn policy cases. The negro was suspected of promoting policy, and when searched a number of plays were found in his pos- session, and also a quantity of money in small denominations, known as “chicken feed.” The negro admitted that he was playing policy, and gave the following of that game as his occupation, though he was placed on the books as being a host- ler, that having been his vocation at some period in life. He claimed that: he played the game only for Mmself, being interested in no one else. He went to court this morning in the black maria. The Georgetown Assembly Club is no longer to be known as an organization. This season the club has practically dis- solved, and no dances will be held. For a number of years the club made itself prominent, and its dances were society events of some importance. During the summer the club practically disbandcd, with the purpose, however, of reorganiz- ing in the early. fall_upon a notification from the setretary. |The regular notices were sent out and only: a few of the old members responded,"hot enough to assure success should a sgi{és' of dances be at- tempted.

Pulliam} 29, 1897-12 PAGES, SPORTS IN GENERAL Value of Systems in Whist Ques- tioned. PLAY ON THE LINKS OF ROSSLYN Santa Claus at the Coiumbia’s Club House. THE GAME WITH YALE ee Written for The Evening Star. Hamilton, the whist writer, has given his opinion that too much cannot be said in favor of the value of system in whist. He claims that system creates and sustains confidence, that lack of system engenders and promotes disorder and confusion which is productive of error. “System, order and discipline are as essential to good results in whist as they are indispensable in commer- cial or industrial enterprises, or in the man- agement of armies. The rank and value of the cards, unaided by system or manage- ment, will in a great many hands win for the holders of them all the tricks that can be made from the cards; and in such hands system, strategy and skill go for naught, but in many other hands, skillful manage- ment, rendered most effective by system and combination of forces, will gain a trick more, and it is this small margin in favor of scientific play and system that gives the victory to the expert players who deserve it;" but he does not forget to draw the magic wand of quick perception, accurate judgment, patience, constant vigilance, plus scientific pl - What is A group of arbitrary plays founded upon the holding of a certain combination of cards. It has no unit of meas- ure, and, like any st of vaiue, is unstable; as the standard is un- varying so must the lay be to justify 2 unvarying system, and as no player has ever held the same combination of cards twice in his life, the system founded upon any such reasoning must be erroneous. Why does every club have a different tem? They are all looking for the “ulti- ma thule.” They have tried repeatedly different plays, commended them at one sit- ting and condemned them the next. Is the system used by any whist club in the league that cannot be affected by the holding of certain combinations of curds? Just so must the play be influenced and made to va y brilliant ad ies. Find me a consistent system player who always holds up the deuce of his partner's suit holding four te an ace led, and 1 will find you ten who do not. What system is bette than familiarity with your partne! tem is,only confidence in partne The confidence you have in him i tem, and to both of your adversaries it is an unknown quantity. They can derive no benetit from what you have obtained by actual play, and are handicapped by your knowledge of thtir game at all stages. There are no similar conditions of holding to instruct the partner in team work. They are limited to crude first principles: “You must not lead a singleton; you must ever lead your fourth best; you must never trumps with less than five, unless you have two certain tricks in each of the other |} suits.” Are you to worship this god? Then give me the old mythology. Let my imagination have some freedom, for my faith is not so imple as to believe all the precepts of your long-suit religion, You say it is the best we have. Then “Give others’ work just share of praise, Nor of thine own the merit raise.”” Many of us are putting much hard, earnest thought in trying to perfect the game, aud are looking as anxiously for a Joshua as the most ardent follower. Why are two clubs, playing a system that they both un- derstand, allowed to consume ten or eleven hours in a match of forty-eight boards? Why not adopt the chess system of using a five-minute clock? Ins! d of ment. it players, Having the original opening, too many players place too much importance on t major tenace. If your partner opens the suit it can be determined only by the card ond hand play whether you justified in taking the finesse. Even in , with the remaining trumps with rtner, you have to be sure he has it in case the queen is G. W. aptured on your ieft. ON THE ROSSLYN LINKS. fie in the Final Round of the Wash- ington Golf Club Tourney. The semi-finals of the annual Christmas tournament of the Washington Golf Club were played yesterday morning and after- noon on the links at Rosslyn, Two match- es were played in the morning, Mr, Ned Mitchell, with a handicap of one stroke, defeating Mr. George Dunn 3 up and 2 to and Mr. David H. Biddie of Philadel- phia defeating Dr. Guy Whiting 7 up and 6 to play. Then Mr. Biddle and Mr. Mitchell met in the afternoon to decide the final round, but so evenly were they matched that it was impossible to play off the match be- fore darkness, even to the extent of but one extra hole. Mr. Biddle is one of the crack players of the Quaker city, and as Mr. Mitchell has not played much this sea- son, although an experienced hand at the game, he deserves no little credit for fol- lowing the past pace set by the Philadel- phian, ‘The game was in all probability the closest and most exciting ever played in Washington. In the semi-finals of the consolations, W. J. Boardman beat Henry May 4 up and 3 to play, and J. W. Lockett beat Fellows Morgan 7 up and 6 to play. DOYLE’S INT! EARNESTNESS. SE Not a Trouble Maker, but Thoroughly Loyal, Says George Davis. George Davis, the well-known shortstop of the New York Base Ball Club, returned to the big metropolis yesterday and in the course of an interview with the New York reporters had the following to say about the Washington-Baltimore deal: “As to the Baltimore-Washington deal it is hard to say which club got the better of it. McJames is a superior pitcher to Amole, but ‘Tom’ Brown was anxious to secure a left hander for the Washingtons,.and that was the reason he was willing to give up McJames. Brown first tried to get Doheny cf the New Yorks, but failed. Although Reitz is a splendid second baseman, yet De Montreville is a crackajack infielder. 1 fail to see where there is any comparison be- tween ‘Jack’ Doyle and McGann. “Doyle is a wonderful player. He is just the kind Washington needs. He will be of more strength to the Senators than to the Baltimores, because the former need a gin- gery player to liven up the team as a whole, whereas all the Baltfmores ure gingery. 1 do not consider Doyle a trouble maker. Like almost any other player, when any one makes a misplay he kicks. When he goes into the field he is all wrapped up in a dedire to win. It is this intense earnest- ness for the success of the-team he is with which has brought forth so many harsh re- marks about him.” PULLIAM RE-ELECTED PRESIDENT. Louisville Base Ball Company Satis- fied With the Year's Earn: LOUISVILLE, Ky., December 29.—The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Louisville Base Ball Company was held at the Louisville Hotel last night. The meet- ing lasted until a late hour, a general dis- cussion of the base ball situation having been held. The financial statement was the best in several years, showing a profit dur- img the last season, though a deficit stil! exists, dating from the formation of a twelve-club league, .The club ts earning fixed charges and is reducing tis debt, though it is making nothing for the stock- holders.

Santa Claus visited the Columbia Ath- | jetic Club last night and with the aid of | an immense Christmas tree and a bagful | of presents made a merry time. The tree was erected in the gymnasium and was a handsome creation. On a table nearby | were packed presents of all desériptions, and later in the evening Mr. Howard Perry, impersonating Santa Claus, made a pre- sentation of one of the articles to every | one present, the gift in almost every in stance corresponding to some hobby of the recipient. Mr. Perry made a_ little speech with each gift that added much to the enjoyment. Haley's orchestra fur- | nished excellent music during the enter- | tainment. The affair was under the direc- tion of a Christmas tree committee, con- sisting of Dr. J. C. Exner and Messrs. Thompson, Flynn, Korn and Asmuster. Queers Defeat Light Infantry. The Queer Wheelmen defeated Company C, W. L. L. C., in a closely contested game of bhsket ball at the W. L. I. Armory last | night, the score standing 9 to 4.

The question as to whether the for laying should be charged to the individual property owners or whether the town should stand one-half of the cost and the property owners the other half, was considered at length, and it was decided that the fast plan should be reported. On motion of Mr. Darr the question of repealing the present clause prohibiting the sale of liquor in Laurel was taken up, and the question of submitting to the people the proposition of license or no license and the drafting of a bill to cover high license was thoroughly discussed, and on the vote of eleven to-one the matter was referred to a committee, consisting of Messrs. Stan ley, Hurley and Darr, who were Instructed to draft a bill for presentation to the leg- islature, providing for submitting the ques- tion to the people, and providing for high license in case 2 favorable vote for that Froposition resulted at the polls. A committee of three, with the mayor as chairman, was appointed to report on the advisability and feasibility of provid- ing a water system for the town. This com mittee was to report at the next meeting the terms on which water could be secured from any corporation now in existence, or what arrangement could be made with capi: talists to provide a system. A_ committee of five was appointed to wait upen the receivers of the Baitimore and Ohio road reiative to a readjustment of the local train schedule. Another com mittee of five was appointed to wait on the Postmaster General to urge the re-es- tablishment in Laurel of the free delivery system. The question of the purchase of the elec- tric light plant was postpoied indcfinitely. At a prior meeting of the gereral commit- tee committees were appointed to draft bills relating to the establishment of rail- way crossings, for the increase of the po- lice force and for power to impose licenses upon peddlers. All these bilis will be re- ported, it is expected, at the adjourned meeting of the committee at the city hall January 10, when arrangements will be made to present the bills to the legisiature. he com- — os OTTO GETS A VERDICT.
