May 22 , it was de cided to send another team to Des Moines to endeavor to capture the Richards trophy. L. A. Gamer , vlce-prealdent of the club and president of the Central Whist association , was requested to name the players who should compose the team , and he selected Drs. Burrell and SumneyMessrs. . Joseph Joplin and Stanford. These gentlemen rep resented th club at the annual tournament at Slnux Falls last February and made an excellent showing- . They -will go Into train ing at once. There were twenty-eight players on hand on Wednesday night. May : c and It iwas. noticeable that at the seven tables the only regular pairs playing- together were Cruni- iper and Joplin , and Peters and Coakley. All the others were divided up and It Is a credit to the character of the whist plaved at the Omnhn Whist club that there w'ere but three boards ntwhich the range In scores were noticeable. The scores for the evening were as follows- NORTH AND SOUTH. Colonel Marshall and Mr. Alice 200 Jlr.

But. like a nine board , there is another side. Asjrumlng that It I ? an original lead and that the hand has no other suit of more than three cards , we are en tirely In the dark as to the composition of the other hand. . An attempt to strengthen the partner's hand by leading- high card from a snort milt Is mere guess work , and while such a lead may help your partner there are Just two chances to one that It will help the enemy since there are tne two adversaries and only one partner. Another argument against the jack or other high card lead- Bcod players are fast adopting the rule that an Irregular , original lead means an invlta tlon for trump , therefore you and your partner must nipee to Ignore this rule or else there will be danger of your partner leadIng - Ing : a trump just about the time you have succeeded In establishing-a long suit for vour adversary , Take the following hand- Clubs trump ; six. four and three of clubs- nine seven , s'x. four and two of hearts ; Jack' ten of spades ; queen ; neven and four of Sent Free to Men , IXDIA.VA 3IAX DISCOVERS A HC- 1IAU1CAHI.U ItUUEDr FOIl LOST VIGOH. umiilfi Will He Sent Free to All Who Write for It. Jas. P. Johnson of Ft. Wayne , Ind. . after battling for yean against the mental and physical suffering of loat manhood , baa found the exact remedy that cures tbe trouble. He la guarding tlio secret carefully , but la willing to Send a sample of thu medicine tn all men who suffer with any farm of sexual weakness resulting from youthful Ignorance , premature loss of memory and strength , weak back , varlcocele and emacl Otlon.

Tbe remedy cured Mr. Johnston completely of all the Ilia and troubles that coma from years of mlauae of the naturally ordained functions , and Is said to bo absolutely reliable in every case.

Aalde from the quertlon of making tricks. which In tli * hand given Is reduced to the minimum , one must consider , first , "How can 1 help my partner ? " and second , "How can I avoid h el pine- the adversary ? " As already stated a lead from the cpnde suit Is twice m llke'y to help the adversary as your partner. Moreover. It exposes your hard .it once. If you lead the heart your adversary may capture an honor from your partner , but h cannot establish a long rult , nnd the risk of Injuring ynur partner Is no greater than the rlik of helping the enemy Besides , however you lend you still have the heart suit you cannot get rid of It and the master cards > wlll tnke tricks as far a < i your hand Is concerned.

East knew when South's king dropped that there was ! -iomethlniT wrong. From We t's play and fall of the cards he could read the three as the only trump In his hand ; there fore t'he jack and ten must be against ISm and probably In one hand. He suspected the king as beinga false card , abandoned his trump lead and opened up the c'ubs , which eventually forced South's strong trump and mode the bilance of hls ( Ea t's ) clubs. At another table South was not PO considerate. East ] > > d trumps three times , when South exhausted his trump and led hearts. maUlnir six tricks In the = ult.

HARD HITTING SETTLES THE GAME EARLY Clarke Pnnnded All Over the Field liy the Kx-Ciillrnlnn-s Willie Holi- Innon Wnn Hurdlj- Ever Located. The Bluffs semi-professional team was over the Big Bridge yesterday afternoon for a tussle with the University club team. They had It , and when they got through they were about the worst disappointed aggrega tion of ball players In the country. Abbott's brawny lads jumped onto Clarke from the very start and once getting their hand In , pounded him as they pleased. Colonel Lucaa waa lifted from the game for "back talk" to Umpire Keith , who , they swear. Is a little the best that ever come out of the swamp. Robinson pitched for the Universities and acquitted himself In superb shape. The Uni versities have certainly struck a batting streak thlaeprlng and If they keep It up , will meet few team * this season that will down them. They play in the Bluffs Monday afternoon.

Yale won the two mile boat race from the University of Wisconsin on Lake Saltonstall this after noon by about three lengths In 13:54 : , the Wlsconslna finishing three seconds behind. From the start to flnlsh the visitors gnve Yale a good battle. The two eights rowed evenly , Yale spurting ahead as soon as Referee Richards' pistol was flred , and never being overtaken , although the Yale stroke was lowered during the last halt mile , and the Wisconsin crow decreased the distance between the two boats by half a length. The race was not started till 6 o'clock. Wisconsin won the toss for course , and chose the east side. This gave her the stralghter side of the take. At the start the crews settled down to vigorous rowing. Yale crept steadily to the lead , and by the time a quarter of a mile had been traversed was nearly a length ahead. The crew which had both caught the water at a forty to thr minute stroke , now let down somewhat , ai.d Yale was timed rowing about thirty-two to the minute and Wisconsin thirty-four. At the stake boat Yale had nearly a length of clear water between hec shell and Wisconsin , and the blue continued to draw away until half a mile from the flnlsh. The stroke , Langford of Yale , dropped his pace down to about thirty , and the Wlsconslns , despite their light weight , seemed full of life , and hit up a lively stroke till they crossed the line. They rowed In good form throughout the race , while Yale seemed not to catch the water forcibly. , CADETS DEFEAT THE QUAKERS. Conic In . ' ( run I.eiictliN Ahead In u Two-Mile Itncv. ANNAPOLIS , May 29. Every cadet In the Naval academy feels Ilka an admiral today , for the "Cadet" crew defeated "Penna. " In a two-mile race , crossing the line seven lengths ahead of the Quakers , In 13 minutes and 47 seconds. The visitors came In 2S seconds later In 14 minutes and 15 seconds. The water was rough and the time Is con sidered very good under the circumstances. Because of rough water. It was 6:23 : p. m. when the pistol waa flred from the Judge's boat , and the race was on. Both crews took the water at about the same rate , pulling a long , steady stroke , but before a hundred yards had been traversed Pennsylvania's young men found the water tco rough , and several good old-fashioned "crabs" were caught by the collegians. The 'Cadets , " on the contrary , never missed a stroke and eoon had the nose of their craft In advance. "Penna" was pulling at the rate of thirty- four strokes to the minute and the "Mid dles" at thirty-three , both coxswains hold ing their boats well Into the course , and the Pennsylvanlans becoming steadier with each stroke. The men In the navy boat were the stronger , and at the end of the first half mile were a length ahead. From this time on It was a procession , with the Quakers bringing up the rear. luch by Inch the cadets forged ahead , until at the finish , seven lengths separated them from their competitors.
