BILLIARDS.

In a recent _letter I took occasion to

comment on the game of billiards in this country, who some of the stare of the green cloth are and when they first came into prominence. On Fridpy of this week Willie Hoppe and George Sutton will clash at Madison Square Garocn Concert Hall for the 18,2 balk-line championship, Inasmuch as thc amateur championship is to be` settled at Chicago this month, 'and Hoppe has already met Jacob Schaef- _er at Chicago at the 18.1 balk line game, and, with more duels and championships to follow, the knights of the billiard table rre claiming more than their share of the sporting public’s attention. -

One very interesting event now slated for decision at this rueetllis. which is followed ao rapidly by radng at the New York tracks, is a race for army ollicers. Can this have been inspired by the president? It is for horses four yeans old and up which have been uncondition- ally the property of regular army ofliceru from January 1 to the time of the race. A cup valued at $500 will be presented by the War Department to the regiment, corps or staff department to which the winner belongs, this to be competed for annually. In addition the \Vashingt0n Jockey Club will give a cup to the win- ncr, to become his personal property, and will also give cups to the second and third riders.

Negotiations have already been started looking toward this end, by one of the best known own- ers in the east. Going abroad because of his avoirdupois, Henry has become one of, if not the leading jockey of France, receiv- ing for his services to the Rothschild stables, the princely salary of $20,000 a yeur.‘ He is, moreover, one of the most popular jockies riding there.
