Were Won-Sonn Curl oui llrveriiili of Form-Mr. Barney's " Iff" Winner Notei nnd Problem!. The rlehth annual congress of the American Whist Leamie. which WM held In Boston dur ing, the week of July 11 to 10, was In many re spects superior to all Ita piedocessors. With the possible excoptlon of tho contests for tho Hamilton trophy the play was of a high olass. and In tho open events there wore quite as itrong players as In nny of tho championship nt(,,u The prlr.es were all of solid silver, and were tho flncet evor offered at a congress. In itfid of ticketing such-and-such n prize, only those for the championships were separated from the others, nnd tho winners In all the epen events were allowod to choose anything ther rli,t,d from 'ho case In which all the frliM worn on exhibition. Quito a number of neo prlrof were, evidently Intended for tho ladle, which showed that tho committee ex pected them cot only to attond In largo num bers, tut to be winners, and the results proved Ihe a to be 'lulto right In both matters. With tho exception of the Press Committee, which" chiefly conspicuous by its absence, all the arrangements were of the bot. For tho first Hire In tho history of match playing not a Ingle board wis reversed, thanks to Chairman Barney sinv-ntion of tho Vpeg. Tho Admin istrate llurc-iu. In charge, of Jnmes A. Oeorge of Prnvl lence. was nil that could bo desired, and tho T' tirnnmciit Committco handled all the event" nn 1 made up nil tho scores with com- nemlttlilo precision, the only drawback being tlinnnt"f punctuality in starting, for which there i- no excu-c In a tournamontof this kind. In thf mitter of press reports, it was nl t taost Impossible to get necurato Infor mation about details, owing to tho fact thn' no member of the Press Committee could be found, and uo one had any .uithorlty to add to the information on tho bulletin board. This brought about from curious mistakes, such as all tho ltoston papers stating that the Nowtown dub of rami ridge had qualified for tho finals In the trophy contest, when tho club was not even enf'p'l In nny of tho events. Sevoral pirer in attempting to give tho names of tho phyep- repn'seiitlng the ilubs. got Ward and Becker mixed up Ith Street and rietcher. be cause the f inner wero well known as tho stars oftliel'jramid tenin. and very few knew that the) are now playing for tho American Whist Cluh As to the scoring, with Its many diffi cultly nnd defects. TnK Sun will have more to ar in future article. The Committee on Nominations got together what was apparently the most popular ticket trer offered to a congress, the result of the tlection being as follows- President. E. Lo Roy Smith of Albany: Vice-President. B. L. Rloh ardsof Rock Rapids. la.: Recording Secretary. Clarence A. Henriques of New York; Corre sponding Secretary, L. O. Parker of Toledo: Treasurer, John T Mitchell of Chicago: diroo- tors for three years, George L. Bunn of St. (V Paul. E. C Fletcher of West Newton. Mass., ft Joeph S Xeff if Philadelphia, and J. E. Faber J) el Staten Island; director for one year, W. C. P Talcott of Cleveland r Roy Smith has certainly done as much for whist as any one connected with the game, and Is undoubtedly one of the most popular men In the league Tho recognition of his services by his election to the highest ofllco In their gift Is tho best mark of their esteem that the whist p'ayers can glvo him. Richnrds's election to tho Vice-Presidency was also vory popular, and the rest of the ticket secmod to meet with universal approval The new director from Now York. J E. Faber, was a fortunate selection, as he Is In touch with whlt all over the State, and Is a popular officer in many local organizations. The following report of all tho matches played I at the eighth congress is made up from the oDldil core sheets nnd Is therefore the first complete aeeount of the results of the congress to far published. THE DBOOKI.TN THOPOT.

Tim represents tho cha'mpionshlp of the Milled Mates for teams of four players from the same club It whs played for on a new sys tem thl- ear. the preliminaries being the regu lar Howell sy-tem for fours which was used In the Intercity tournament here last winter, mere nere seventeen deals played In each round, afternoon and cloning, making thirty two matches ossllde. When this scheme was rropoed thero was a great deal of objec tion to It, and many wanted to score tricks in-tead of mntohes.

This event was very hotly contested, and pro duced the tlnest whist of tho congress. Taylor and Elwell of New York were expected to win lt. but thor could not do bettor than third.

There wore a larger number of entries and a better olass of playors In these events than ever before, and they certainly formed ths main attraction of the congress to tho majority of the delegates. There were throo events for teams of four, and seven for pairs. The Idea of the Tournament Committee was to try as many different ways of arranging the players and forms of scoring as possible, so as to get at an expression of opinion on their methods. Howell's. Safford's, Clay's and Mitchell's were all tested fairly, and lt seemed that Howell's, with his now way of averaging the hands, was the most popular of all Tho resultsot the con tests for fours were as follows: Tuesday night, played on the Mitchell sys tem, trick score to win.

All those who had won a prizo In tho open events, or who had made tho top sooro either way when playing as apairon anyteam of four, were allowed to entor tho last contest of the congress, a match for the winners In all tho previous open events Thirty-six pairs were found to have quulillod, and they mado up what proved to bo the most interesting match of tho meeting. Tho game was played on tho Mltcholl system, but every , hand was a matuh, nnd whether the players sat N and H or E and W tho highest mutch score was to win. Tho only fault to bo found with this contest was that It was too short, only sixteen Heals Doing Piayea. u. u. Brlggs and E. A. Montgomery of Minneapolis won. with 1U matches out of 10 possible, play ing tho N and rt hands. F. It. Brightman and iB. Wilcox were second ;0. M. Douglas and ft. F. Foster third. On tho E and W hands. O. E. Nelson und W. A. I). Montgomery were high with V2 matches: Mrs. F. H. Johnson and J. I, Faber of New York were half u match behind this pair, but three ahea Of them in trick score, getting tho highest us on oither side. Tho straight whist oontAt went to the win ners ot the Minneapolis trophy. W. E. Hickox and M. F. Itlohardson of Newport, which would seem to show thut thoy were in pretty good luck all around. The most unfortunate man nt the congress was Dr. George Walls of nshlng ton. Four times ho came within one trick of a prize, and once, under the Howell system of averaging by frnctlons. he missed It by two rleventhH of a trick only. The only Jersoyraan to win anything was Dr. Long of New Brunj wlok. and ho had to take a lady for n partner to got his prieo. All the players from New York and Brooklyn did well: .Henriques, Bpafford. Foster. Adams, McDonald. Tolar. Mr. nud Mrs. Bakerand Miss Cumpboll all gotprlzos, and Mrs. Johnson and J. E. Faber mado top scores In tho fours. TUB STSTKU 0V PLAT. The Committee on System of Play made IU long-expected report at the executive meeting on Tuesday morning, but it fell very flat. Every one thought there would be some lively discus lon over It, but no one said u word except to propose tofay lt on tho shelf for a year, where anypne who wished to, try "would find ll Randy. Tho system Itself is strictly orthodox, and gives all the Mcondand third hand plays.the various mothods of playing trumps both bofore and afwrpforoo. and the nnblocklnctaetios. ex actly as thoy aro given In "Fosjert Manual, which has been so long the standard text book for begiunors.

Representative Armatrong Kxplalna the Good Honda Hill Jutt railed by the X.etlilatnre Some of the Poor Hiding Thoroushfurea In Greater New York, A vacation spent on a bicycle can bo mad one of the plensantest oplsodes of a man's ex perience. To an individual who loves pastoral beauties and human nature, and who Is oapa bla ot gloanlng material for reflection from what he eoos about him, there Is no more ideal way to pass a woek or a fortnight. The steod that carries tho tourist does not tire until ho does. It docs not havo to be fed. and can bo put up for tho night In almost any place. The btoyoie does not balk. It travels as fast or ai slow aa ita passongor chooses. It is true that It does need to be cleaned and that It may break down, but ths chances ot Its collapsing while on a tour are fewer than In the coso of a homo that Is driven half so far and as fast. Thosoaro some of tho reasons why n trip of soveral days on a wheel Is something no rldor who can gain tho time should forego. Tho stronger reasons aro that from tho saddlo ot a wheel n man docs moro obsorvlng than from a seat astrido a horse, In a buggy or a parlor car. Tho swift rush through tho air in felt dtfforcntly from what It is In tho other modes of travel mentioned and ths effect Is different. On a wheel, bocauso ot tho smoothness and straightforwardness ot tho motion, the rider feuls himself to bo cutting the air more than when bouncing on a horso. Then thero Is somothing In tho swaying, gliding mo tion of an easy gait on a country road that soothes and brings ono into thoughtful harmo ny with tlio rustling lea cs of tho trees. Thore Is nothing too extravagant to say about tho so ductlvonoss of the bicyclo when it is employed for a country tour. Only tho most stupid of men could make a rural cycling trip at leisure and fall to return with information regarding many things of which ho buforo was Ignorant. Thero are mnny dlfforont kinds of bicycle toure. Most of them are too formal with too much preparation Involved. The cycling tour abroad in company with soveral others Is all right, and so It is at home, but there Is another kind which is best ot all for the vacation of the hard-worked man. This is tho lonesome "knockabout tour." There are some, of course, so constituted that they could not go anywhere alone. Thoy can find no compan ionship In nature or in their thoughts, but for thoso who are not of this tomperamont and have nevortried tho "knockabout tour" thore Is a revelation ot delight reserved. Tho idea In a trip of the kind is to start without ob jective point and without maps or guides ot any kind, taking a direction toward somo por tion of the country that is unfamiliar. The route is determined by tho condition of tho roads and the weather, and tho stops made by the agreenbleness of the places and the com pany found. Biding easily, thero is no danger of a person getting so far away In a week or two but what a train will land him homo in n day ami a night. Knocking about on a wheel in this fashion has been often testined to as being one of tho happiest of all wavsto spend a vacation. Ths abbenco ot intimates who are a part of the everyday associations is restful, and the. sense of irresponsibility and boundless freedom that is temporarily gained is more so. It is a familiar saying with old tlmo cyclists that a man sees more an heel than he does either afoot or horseback, and this is corroborated by thoso who have tried the "knockabout tour." One who returned last week from ten days of tt In New Jersey says: " I saw more and earned more about the coun try and did moro thinking and got more solid comfort and rest than I thought was possible in so short a time." In starting on such a trip the less a rider undertakes to carry the better. Light marching order is the thing. Thin flannels that will stanu wear and an amount ot linen brought down to a camping basis aru theeorreot thing. A few extra articles for wheel repair are apt to prove more serviceable than extra clothing Items. A few nuts nud chain links and tire-mending materials are all Important in the kit. One man who has tried lonely trips found that in a handbag slung on the handle bars be could carry an oxtensivo outflt by counting on leaving washing at a village and doubling his courso enough to re turn for It in u couple of days, no car ried only a single, change ot clothing, a large assortment ot repair matorlal and even ono extra pair of long trousers with whloh he says ha"dressed up" to go "down street" In tho country townsat night. Homanagedtho "dress ing up by wearing an ordinary hat and dark I sack coat and tan walking shoes. Then with his clean shirt and white collar and long trou sers ho made his transformation. When riding he taved his "down streot" shirt and clung to his serviceable flannels. An excellent point In such trips Is glvon by the some rider, who says that ono of the most convenient artieloa in his kit was a collnplble drinking cup tor use at the country w ells und springs. So few of tnoso wno are working in benail oi road improvement realize the opportunities which they receive under tho provisions of the Higble-Armstrong Good Roads bill, passed by tho Stato Legislature lost spring, that the Now York State Division has issued a pamphlet giv ing an explanation ot tho new law and what is possible under it. Tho elucidation ot the bill, as given by W. W. Armstroiig.who was one of Its creators, is excollont. and it cyclists, especially those in suburban districts, wore thorough ly eonversaut with the facta thoy might often be the means of bomo vory material improve ments In their local highways. Kegardlug tho bill, Armstrong says: "The act provides that any Board of Super visors may adopt a resolution declaring that public Interest demands the Improvement of a certain piece of highway not located in a city or villagft.and that upon a petition of the ownersot a majority ot the lineal feet fronting upon such a highway it must adopt such a resolution. A copy of this resolution" is then to bo trans mitted to tho Stato Engineer, who shall first determine whether the piece of highway indicated Is of sufficient pub lic importance to receive State aid: if so, he shall map tho highway, oauso plans and speoi llcatloiis for 1U improvement and an estlmato of tho cost to bo made, and transmit copies thereof to tho Board of Supervisors. Tho Board of Supervisors, with these facts and fig ures bofore them, "may then adopt a socotni resolution declnrlng that such a highway shall be Improved, or It may refuse to go any turthor with the mutter it It so chooses. "If u county, therefore, desires merely to know how much It will cost to Improve a cer tain piece of hlghway.it need only adopt tho first resolution and got the plans and the esti mate of thn cost free ot churge.and refuse to go any further. If it chooses, ufter ascertaining tlieso facts, to adopt tho second resolution, It may, but cannot be compelled to do so. If. however, the Board ot Supervisors adopts the second resolution, it must transmit a copy ot it to the Stato Engineer, who then advertises for bids for the work. If no responsible bid Is made within his estimate, he must make n new estimate and transmit It to the Board ot Super visors, and If tho Board of Supervisors then adopts a new resolution, based upon tho new estimate, declaring that nevertheless such highway shall be Improved, the State Engineer must advortlse again for bids as before, " Each Board ot Supervisors lias, under the general highway law, tho power to elect a County Engineer, If It has elected such an officer, thn State Engineer must act through him. If tt has not. he must sujierYlso the per formance of the contract himself. "The act further provides that tho Improve ment of highways shall be taken up In the order in which the final resolutions are received by the State Engineer, but ho shall not undertake nny work in excess of the appropriation made by tho Legislature for tho piirjiono from year to year. The appropriation madethlsvearto start the work was $60.(XKJ This amounts to a tax of 11-1000 ot a mill on each dollar of assetised valuation In the State, so thut tho post to the State of Improved highways under this act will bo 11-1000 of a mill on tlio ilollnr of assessed valuation for each $50,000 tho Stato nppropil ates therefor, and the first counties to apply will bo the llrat served " In addition, the act provides that tho Stato engineer must collect Information relative to the public highways, and give to all officers having the care of roads, whether Improved or not. such Information free. Ho must furnish them plans and directions forthe improvement of roads and bridges free ot cost, when re- 7uested by thorn, and they may consult him reely at all times and must aid him in collect ing data and ttatistlcs." At various times different persons have pointed the digit ot scorn und criticism at the advocacy of cycle paths that has beon adopted as u lollcy by tho L A. W It has been urgod that tho constitution of the League declares for good roads and equal rights on thorn for all vehicles, and that ufter succoedlng in having tho bloycle written down ns u vehicle In the statutes of the State It Is Inconsistent for the League to ask for special roads or paths These criticisms were mentioned to President I. B. Potter of tho L A. W. by a reporter of Tub Sun, and the President, who has for many years been known as ' Good Roads Pot ter," made some interesting points In his reply. He agreed that what tho wheelmen wanted was good roads, and that as vehlole they bad a right to highways that wore practicable. But inasmuch aa the oommon roads In country dis tricts are not practicable for blcyoles. and the taxpayers living along them havo neither the desire nor the money to make them so. tho only recourse is a cycle path If wheelmen are enti tled to some place along a highway that ia pass able for tho class of vehicles they propel it U well to advocate cycle paths, which coitonly ft to tlW) mile, while good road buililni costs many times as much, Tho farmers who pay tho road taxes have becomo necustomed to the "mudtvnys".ln front ot thor homo stnnds. Thoy saw them so when they wore children nnd cannot bo. taught oxeqpt by demonstration why they should tie mado any better. For cycle paths It Is claimed they nro groat good roads educators. A farmer whoso wagon Is floundering In tho mud seos a cyclist whiz past on a hard, smooth path and aees him returning an hour Inter, tho wheel having travelled Ave miles and back while the farmor has been making ono mile, through tho mud. It is then likely to come to his mind that It the road nlso was good he, too. might travel speedily and economlzo both time and money. President Potter says that the building of cycle paths Is only temporizing, hut lt has the strongest kind of warrant as an expediency It Is only. . n part of tho cyollng cry of "good roads," and tho paths are necessary while tho people aro being waked up, because, if wheelmen really havo a right to ride bloyoles, somo place where thoy can Tio ridden Is ajustdemnnd. Eventually all roads will tie so good that there will be no need tor side paths, says Mr Potter, but whllo waiting for this I'toplnn condition to bo reached bicycle paths aro Imperative. When expensive macadam roads cannot bo had. a request for cheap side paths Is modest These points raised by -Mr. Potto r have a novelty and n virtue that are likely to give the critics somo material for fresh thought. Hnlrpln punctures have caused the men in a small Western city to rise up lnuuchlvalroas wrath and demand a cyclo path of their own. Thoy complain that tho whoelwomen leave a streak of crooked, sccond.hand hairpins on the roads to bo picked up by tiros ami that tho cuts causod by tho hnlr-drosslng auxiliaries tnnko more ghastly and expensive punctures than anything else between a tnck and a tomato can. So far as tho information up to date goes not onu of the men in the plnco has conceived tha idea of buying and presenting the womon wit h an assortment of tho large shell, silver and gold hairpins to replaco tho wire antiquities. Somo of the roads much frequontod by oyolers hereabouts aro in poor condition owing to tho work of repairs. Tho complaint is made that tho macadam onGlonmoro avenuo from Vesta avenue to Alabama avenue. Brooklyn, Is torn up and tho thoroughfare Is unrldable. Wheel men bound for Long Island resorts aro advised to go by the Eastern Parkway extension to PonnHylvaula avenue.ns tho riding above that iraitit Is good. One of the worst stretchos of road to bo found within the limits of Greater New York Is that part ot Eastern Pnrkway which lends through Brownsville, whero tho street has boon dug up. Holes havo been loft which 1111 up with water two or throo lnchos deep. A flno side-path ride to Coney Island from East New York and suburban points of Brook lyn Is evidently known to few. it is by King's Highway, which starts a little above tho begin ning of tho Eastern Parkway extension. With the exception ot n short dlstanco the sldo-path riding is as gcod as that of the cycle path, and tho distance saved Is considerable. It Is also a ehort route to Canarsle and Bergen Beach. In an official bulletin issued by Chairman Mott of tho L. A. W. Hoeing Board yesterday announcement Is made of the suspension of Louis Callahan nud other well-known local cyclers for failure to rido at a tournament when entered.

FlnlaT, Jr., of the Rasex County Links Prodigy. "When youth is young nnd twenty," as the ballad has It, is when a player should put up his best golf, according to the Scotch oritics. They quote young Tom Morris and a long list of champions to back up their assertions. It the rule be true Alex. Flnlay, Jr.. tiie son of the professional at the Essex County Country Club of Orange, should be a champion eight years from now, for at the age of 12 he Is able to play as well as most golfers who visit ths links. The young chap is about as tall as the average caddie bag and It is a standing joko at the links to pit him against visiting adults who know nothing of the lad's skill, but may think pretty well of their own abilities. As Goliath and ths tiny David move toward the first tee, tho giant is apt to look Bomowhat conceited, but when the boy holes out in fours on green after green consternation Is apt to succeed the expression ot complacency. Young Alex uses but three clubs, the driver, eleek and manhie. He usually uses the driver tor the second shot, only relying on the oleek for greater accuracy in direction, Ills swing is very full and easy, a faculty Alex, shares with many other lioys about the links, but tho dif ference Is In the thorough way in which he fol lows out the stroke, Alex. Is a sure, straight driver, never foozling at all, anil he Is oqually deadly on full and short mashie pitches. He puts with tho deck, and this Is tho one woak point in his game, for he Is by uo means deadly in this Important branch of play. Young Finlay has beaten till the caddie boy approaching his age on the home and nearby links, and he has also either halved or won matches with most of the scratch men of the Essex links. Unfortunately for tho peace ot mind of his father, young Alex, is not over-enthuslastto on golf, Ills skill, like Topsy's, "just growed." Ho only plays or acts as caddie to earn a casual quarter or half dollar, which is forthwith in vested In a rabbit or pigeon, the pets that he is most devoted to at present. 'Just think I" says Finlay, Sr., with a sigh. "A dot who might be the champion of the United States a few years hence would rather be in a rabbit hutch or about a pigeon coop than on the links But I hope he'll get over such nonsense aud be true to the golf that is in him I" Many ot the Essex County Club members will indorse this parental wish. for. .like the visitors who tee young Alex, play, they hold tun somewhat oi a yrodlsr. 1 1 arm cnxss comtEiu paontr.ai no, 004 motto, "wiutjetxb ynvh BB WTUi SB." luci-jnwa rixcxa.

Hg Although "Tho Cash Girl" remains the play 5 at Bergen Beach, Its aspects chango a little fVu from week to week by reason of tho fresh it songs, jokes, and dances that aro introduced.
