PRCULARITING OF THR GAM, Mr, Phi@ip Casey, the American champion tm the game, tm reply to questions by a HxRaLP reporter, made the following statement concerning Packet and hand ball courts, the peculiarities of the gamfes and their in_ uence on the health amd physical condition of these ‘occupied in sedentary ewployments:— ‘The court here in Brooklyn is a very fair ‘the courts in other cities, in other States and countries, 24 is an old, well-fimed game for the development of the Bodies of those whose callings do not give them sufi wient physical-exercise to secure health, rating in Eng” Jand and Ireland, years ago, as the best exercise Known to ctvilization. Reroatee—How many courts for racket and hand_ ‘Pall are now in successful working order, Mr. Casey? Mr. Cassy—In Dublin, London, Manchester and elee- ‘where in Kpgland and Ireland there ure a very large mumber, and they are wearly all used by the better clase of young men who are students or who are con- fined to desks and counters, But I presume you to have ‘more iwterest in the courts of the United States, and will give more particular tmformation im regard to them. In Brooklyn there ie this court, known as mine, and some others. This, you will see, 6 constructed of brick mainly, and lighted from the roof and sides. It 18.24 fees wide, 34 fect high, 65 feet | ery has seating room for about 200. Then there another in Centre street, Detween Smith and Court streets, in which some yn games have been played. it is owned by Thomas ripey, and is the oldest in Brookiya, having been there for twenty-five years, Then there ts another in Hunter’s Point, built last summer, and it isa very fair soork fn depth, and, in the IN NEW YORK Lmay say, the new grand courts, on the cor- enty-sixth street and Sixih avenue, but they there ner of ‘are for the privave use of a large company of gentie- | «men, and will vot be open to the public generally. ‘Then there is McQuade’s Court, No, 404 Madison street, IN PHILADELP HLA ‘there are five different courts for both racket and hand- ‘dai!—in Sansom street, Carpenter street aud elsewhere then there are two new ones in progress of construc on near the Centenmal giants for tho use of players during the Centennial Exhibition. In Chicago there are four very fine courts, and another at a place called Bridgeport, three miles from ‘Chicago, and they are ai) doig well) Among the Chi- cago players the first on the list is Alderman James ‘O’Brien, then William Foley, James Feron, John Hull, Alderman Powell and Join Carmody. In Troy there is a very fine court ‘THE GAME AND HOW TO PLAY IT. Mr. Casxy coptinued:—The bali used and known as the regulation ball is twoand #,quarter inches in diameter, made somewhat like a base ball, except in its size, Its base 18 a rounded cork, over which rubber is wolled; then there is a coat ‘and then, over ail, a covering of kid or calfskin, the est that can be had. As a quick or a dead ball is pre ferred the more or less rubber is used In the West dead ball is the favorite, though here tbe quick bail is | preferred. | The floors of the courts are of wood, as heavy and | firm as a ship's deck. The front wail, on which the Dall is served, is of smooth brick, and is generally Gagged for the first ten feet, the object being to secure eee durability and continuance of smoothness. he sidewalls are generally of brick, wainscotted for ‘She first six feet, so as to secure a better surface to run against when accident occurs. On the front wall, for racket s line ts drawn about eight feet from the floor, and al serving of balis must | ‘be over that line, andalso over the ace line on the = which is about thirty feet from the front, or say aif'way of the depth of the court either end of this line, there sa ring marked, and tbe Yerverwmust have one foot inst and one {vot outside | when serving the bails. Tn handball the scorer can stand wherever he pleases inside the ace-line, At the outer end of the tourt there ts a gallery for the judges, referee, marker and spectators, 80 that the court is’ kept clear of all | meumbrance to the players Ten feet of the base of the gallery ie of brick, so that over bails may strike it, yebound and be hit again. Handball and racket are, gm the main, the same, the exception being that racket je played with a bat flat and oval at one end, while the er game, as 1s name implies, w played with the nd. xvorTeR—How as to the men who play and their ereparasion for iv? r. Casny—To excel in playing either game requires about the same physical training ae for racing or row- mg. When entering for play in a professional game she players usually appear in tights. They then wes for firet band, and if the match be a four-hand one the winning side only has one leading band at the start | ‘The gamois usually 21 points, or aces, and when a purse ws played for the match is’ the beat 3 in 8 4 10 7, br Sin The ball is served against the front wall, makin, ry bound over the ace-line, a# before noted; or, fuiling to | go so three times, the server is counted out 6 server's oppovent must strike the served ball either on She fy or after the first bound, tailing to do which he doses one, and the server loses in the same way after he ball bas been bit successfully by his opponent Coolness, keen eyes and jodgment are the requisites | When the men are well matched they | in play. ‘watch Keenly the positions taken by each other im the eourt, the main point being to so move as to deceiv your opponent as to where you design landing the bail Or whether itis to be a high or a low one, a corner on or askew, 80 as W have him as far out of position for it @ possible when it come from the wall, When 21 has been made by either the scorer calls the game, und tbe judge decides as to whether it has been fairly won, provided there be any dispute.

In 1849, while yet o Lutheran minister, he was called, at the elose of thi system of government, to preside ov tional Congress. Mr. Schlatter, with many other revo- lutionists, was seized and tried'for disloyalty and con- demued to solitary imprisonment for sg peed of this number he was confined six yeara As the close of the first year he was told, unofficially, that if he applied for pardon or if he would promise to leave the country the prison doors would be opened to him. The sturdy old patriot peremptorily refused to hig er either sug | gestion, and remainea in duress until 1853 (a period of | six years), when be was pardoned under a general amnesty. The prisoner made excellent use of his time while confined, He wrote eighteen volumes upon social and political affairs, which sold rapidly, He also wrote on prison discipline, and many of his suggestions have since been adopted by different governments, The | | old gentleman was well known to proereanve people in this country and rly When he entered prison he | had eighteen children erg ngeecen he left it a triumph- ant and a free man he bad but twelve, JOHN J.
