Harvey Combe, who had been playving from Monday evening until 11 o'clock on Wednesday morning. Sir John Malcolm, Tippoo Smith and Ward, the member of Parlfament for London, being the other players at the table. Some of the proprietory clubs adopted curlous’ ‘rules to attract and keep thelr customers. One of the: echief AMfioulties then as now was to insure a game for any one that might happen to drop in at.odd hours. One of these, nicknamed the Never Ending club, had & by-law that no player should quit a table until a fresh arrival was ready to take his place. This re- quired the whist players to knock out, as a signal that they would be the first to retire, instead of the familiar process of knocking in, which signities a desire to play. One very popular feature was to provide light siken curtaing which could be drawn between the faces of the players so as to conceal from an adyersary any unguarded expression of disappolntment or of, triumph upor” picking up & Band or following the course of play, It was at this club that Fox lost a large sum of money to Lord Barrymore, who took advantage of the concealment of his own face to study the reflection of Fox's cards in the large polished steel buttons which he ‘wore upon his coat. Raggett was a keen man of business and lost no opportunity of keeping his clients together 80 as to prevent thelr becoming attached to rival clubs. He opened a smaller club on St. James square, where the Portland now stands, which he called the Roxburgh, to accommodate those who ia not wish it to be known that they gambled at White's. In order to accommo- date those who went out of town he started another club at Brighton, which was formerly called Brightselmstone and this was the club in which Lord Byron fre- quently played. As a reward for his fore- slght and industry Raggett died extremely rich. Another enterprising proprietor opened a club house at Richmond for the accommo- Qation of the aristoeracy who wished to spend thelr week ends in the country. This house was belleved to have been No. 17 on the Green ard was long known as the London Coffee house. It ls worthy of note that In 1730 quadrille, ombre and whist were always advertised as among the spe- cial attractions of the spa at Richmond. At the corner of Bolton street and Plcca- dilly was Watter's club, which Byron re- cords was a “superb club” in 1815, Beau Brummel played here regularly for ten or twelve years, but the club eventually fell into disrepute through the want of proper supervision of the admissions to member- ship. Swinburne says in his “Courts of Eu- rope’ that it was In (his club that a player upon seelng the witty Lord Alvaney enier the room and dreading his satirical tongue lnid down his cards and pulled out & pair of pistols, which He laid on the table be- side him.

The Natlonal league has adopted a schedule of 168 games, lengthening it from 154 games and both major leagues have decided to exact from all players signed for this year a stipulation that they are to retrain from all post-season playing, “barn- storming.” This means that the man who signs a major league contract for the base ball season, of about six months, binds himself to the will and authority of his employer for twelve months, 50 far as base ball is concerned. There appears to be Justice on both sides of this question. In # the first place the magnate has a right to expect that the man to whom he pays a liberal salary will exert reasonable effort to keep himself in the best of condition from season to season. Barnstorming and midewinter ball playing is very llable fo put him gut of condition. There are many such cases of record. Again, the man who pays out $§0,000 to $100,000 a year ‘to maln- taln a big lpague ball team has something at gtake in the matter of reputation. It i not only unbending] dignity for his team to o out at the close of a season and get walloped by a brush leaguer or a town-lot \ club, but it tends to cheapen the name of the team and the game and thereby vitlate that element of investment represented in reputation. On the other hand the player, who though drawing a falrly good salary, hasn't yet come, In most cases, to share Mberally in his employer's profits as he belleves he should, thinks he ought to be allowed to pick up what extra and easy mohiey he may so long as he gives his em- ployer the best services he has during the league season. Since the National league has added no extra pay for Its players with those fourteen extra games, it really seems that so far as-this league is con- cerned, some latitude should be given the player as to his freedom of action during the months he s not in dction for the league. Already it s necesasry for pro- fessional ball players fo report from & mohith to six weeks before the regular se soni opens for training and, while the pla; ers are at'no expense for that time, no systematic payment of salaries is known to have been adopted by the magnates. To an fmpartial observer it would appear that with the emormous increase in base ball revenue, the lengthening of the season and the shortening of the privileges to the players, the magnates might reasonably be expected to tack onto some salarles just ' ittle bit more money. I have played base ball in the presence of 2,00 persons and was not aware of the presence of a single Individual except my opponents and teammates,” says Char- ley Dooln, premier catcher and new man- ager of the Phlladelphia Nationals. A nan who can keep his head like that has the first prerequisite of a successful man- ager. But there is more than that in this utterance of Dooin's. Any man who, in the heat of tunse rivalry, under the con- stant bombardment a catcher has to en- dure, charged with as great responsiblli- tles as are his, hooted and jeered or ap- plauded, as the case may be, by 25,000 ex- cited partisans—any man who under such clrcumatances can gtill keep his head so that he 1s “not aware that another indi- vidual" but those engaged in the game are present, s more than a successful ball player, It s another proof of the oft- The entrance was originally from made atatement that the man Who €an |pjccadilly side, and many changes have succeed With the best on the professional |pecn made in the Interior arrangoments base ball fleld can succeed In the arena of hut some of the gilt chairs that were used most any business life.

The proprietor of this club was originally a small fishmonger named Willlam Crock- ford, who had @ shop near Temple Bar His first venture In elub proprietorship was to take Watler's old house, where hazard— the American game of craps —was the chief attraction. In this he had a partner named Taylor, and they both made money, but at the end of a year the parated, and Crockford went to St. James street, whei he prospered so well that he instructed the Wyatts to prepare plans for a new bullding. This was opened in 1527, and although it ‘was & proprietary elub Croekford was shrewd enough to Invest a committee with the right of election to membership, a move to which many persons attribute his Immense success. Among theé first of the names presented was that of the duke of Wellington, and almost every man of noto In Bogland was either & member or a guest at some time or other. Among his attractions Crockford never forgot the inner man and he engaged Ude, who had been chef of the duke of York and to Lord Sefton, at & salary of §1500 a year, which was considered enormous hope you don’t expect your adversary to follow suit?” Every visitor to London who has passed down Piccadilly has probably romarked the imposing home of the Devonshire club at the southwest corner of St. James street ‘Within this bullding the highest gambling in the world has probably taken place, the sums won and lost at Monte Carlo being nothing to those that changed hands here.

Such was { the difficult of keeping undesirable char- ters out of proprietory that (t was found necessary on December 31, 1836, to dissolve the Graham's club and then reorganize it, simply to get rid of some ten or twelve persons who were not wanted The reorganisation does not seem to | have helped matter much as the club did | not prosper afterward and finally the Graham's determined to close up, because they could not collect the subscriptions due | from members. Such was the end of the most famous whist elub in the world. Every bridge player knows the Port- | |land, from which have emanated many | excellent codes of laws for card gam The first home of this club was in Blooms. | bury square, near the British museum Then it went to Jermyn street, which runs parellel to Piecadilly, and from thence to Stratford place. That bullding has been torn down and the club is now snugly housed at the southwest corner of York street and St. James square. It Is at the Portland that one looks for the most famous bridge piayers of tbd and it 1s to the Portland that every Ameri- can with pretensions to skill as a bridge player naturally turns his face upon his first visit to London. It would be a hard matter to pick out the most famous of the cracks that have played at the Portland. Probably the best known among the whist ‘players was Charles Ross, who was lord of the treasury in 1835 and died in 1860. This is the player described by Disraell In “Coningsby” as Mr. Earwig. Another conspicuous figure at the Port- | land was John Bushe, son of the chief| justice of Treland, and who figures in Miss Edgeworth's story of “‘Patronage.” Stiil another ‘was General Windham, famous In connection with the storming of the Redan in the Crimean war. Only a few doors from the Portland, tucked snugly away in a corner of the square, is the Baldwin club, which was formerly on Cockspur street and is named after John Loraine Baldwin, the father of the present code of laws for whist and bridge. To this club now belong the bridge players that used to gather at the British Chess club in Whitehall. The card room of the Garrick club has probably as many assoclations connected with it as that of any club in London Anthony Trollope and Charles Reade used to play whist here together without ex- changing a word, Trollope having been Bt fended at Reade's dramatization of Trollope's novel, “Ralph the Helr." The rubbers at the Garrick club are well portrayed by the Bancrofts in their “On and Off the Stage.” It was while John Heneage Jesse was absorbed In his game of whist at the Garrick that Sir John Millals made that famous pencil sketch of him on the back of an envelope. One card room In which Americans are always interested s that of the Reform club, because it was there that General Grant, during his visit to London In 1877, played whist with Lord Granville, W. E. Forster and Colonel Strode and won every rubber. Two famous card clubs of former days, both of which had a large influence in shaping the path of sclentific play, are now no more. These were the Cavendish, which met in the Polytechnic street, and the Westminster, which had its home in the Calendonian on Adeiphia Terrace, near where the Savage club Is now. Mossup, Cavendish, Mogul and Pem- bridge were among the players in them in the old days. There are two clubs in London that have mide the experiment of having both sexes admitted to membership and inducing them to play for medium stakes. These are the | 1 son devoted the clubs New Almack’s in Berkeley square. The points are limited for both bridge and auc- tion, but their success does not seem to have been so conspicuous as to tempt others to follow thelr example. A gentle- man who visited both last year with a view to starting something of the kind here in New York came to the conclusion that while it might do for London, it would not go in New York. OLYMPIAN GAMES THIS YEAR Disturbance in Greece May Interferg with 1910 Plans, NEW YORK, Jan. 15.—Accordng to President Everett C. Brown of the Amateur Athletic union, it is very probable that the 1910 Olympic games, which were awardod to Athens, Greece, will nat be held. The trouble Is the present political upheaval in Greece, which has set back Interest in the great event. These game promoted by the government. and are aided by an athletic appropriation. It is sa'd {that for this reason solely America will {not be represented at the international gathering. wination of the Stage. Thus far the magnates have levied no embargo against thelr players going on the stage In the off-season. The stage, by the way, offers the shortest cut to easy money of any by-path which the ball player, pugllist and wrestler, North pole discov- erers or fakers seem to have found.

Nelson says that when the proper time arrives he will take on the winner of the Welsh-McFarland bout, but stipulates that he must name the welght conditions—133 pounds ringside. Meanwhile Nelson says he will go to San Francisco the latter part of this month to begin training for the forty-five-round fight with Al Wolgast on February 2. He ad- mits that he has not signed artlcles, but intimates that there will be no trouble on that score and that the terms offered by Promoter Hester and accepted by Wol- gast will be agreeable to him. Nelson has signed articles for an eight round bout before the Memphis Athletic club, with a second rater named Eddie Lang, on Jan- {uary 21, for the purpose of trying himself out, He laughts at the stories that he is “going back” and predicts that he will make short work of Wolgast. But he still refuses to consider the challenge of Owen Moran and declines to say just when he will be ready to meet Welsh or McFar- land. Nelson's friends hint that after the Wol- gast fight he may go to Australia to fight Unholz, Britt, Summers or some other lightwelght, In which event it will be a long time before the winner of the Welsh- McFarland battle can get a crack at him. McFarland, who sailed for England the other day, says that Wolgast has an excellent chance to beat Nelson In forty- five rounds, for the reason that the Dane has deteriorated in both skill and stamina.
