DOES ANYONE "KNOW `ALL THE RULES OF THE GAME?

The "going through incident in this year's amateur championship, when a couple requested permission to pass the pair who were holding then up, betrayed the haziness, even of authorities, on points of law.

The long ridge separating the ninth and tenth holes as Sandwich was a scene of animated discussion. A distinguished member of the Royal and Ancient Club, having no book of the rules in his pocket. declined to commit himself to an opinion.

But Mr. Noble is equally gener team as a whole and of its captain. Of A. P. F. Chapman, he writes:

Going through" has always been a controversial question. The old-time golfers at St. Andrews had their precedence troubles, otherwise the Royal and Ancient Club would not have embodied the following in their rules, dated May 5 1338:-

Any party having lost a ball, and incurring a delay by seeking for it, shall be passed by any other party coming up, and on all occasions a two-ball match-whether by two or four players-may pass parties playing three or more halls. Also, parties having caddies may pass those carrying their own clubs."

The St. Andrews rules were not universally accepted till a much later date. Thus, the Royal Wim bledon Club had their own rules and bye-laws, dated 1883.

Still fater, some clubs employed the following rule, which, though not in the St. Andrews code. was the forerunner of the much-discuss ed rule involved recently at Sand- wich.

Nice little spinning wheel up there behind that black board. It seems to do a bouncing good job of palling up consecutive numbers and makes such an effective score board. The white board under the black one says, "Last wk. (that means week, of course) fell at 349." I wonder what the first score will be to-day.

They seem to be playing short of bases, too. They will never get any place just running between those broom handles stuck in the ground. They should have a better hall than that. It must be wooden,

Since the new musical comedy at the Palace, "Hold Everything, concerns itself with boxing it might be said by the censorious that two ignoble arts are bere entwined. But we need not be so grave. Both should deal unpretentiously in and the show offered punch, a liberal allowance of footwork and fiaticuffs (writes a Home critic).

To give money's worth is not ignoble, and all the gallery girls who watch Mr. Owen Nares first sing ing his beart out and then knock ing his man out are surely having abundant value.
