Brown and Stovey, the firct men up for Boston, were struck oot on seven pitched balls. Swett hit an easy fly-to Hnnlon. In the second inning the Bostons caught on to his delivery and pounded it for the dsvoted to local sporting affairs. it Here is a game which, although it has been played for years in some parts of England, is practically a new thing in this country. It has beem played spasmodically by American 15-ball pool players at times, but it is little known, nevertheless, to nine-tenths of the devotees of that popular sport.

The most curious thing about the game is that, in spite of its having been played for so long across the water and to a far less extent in this country, no one teems to know its name. At the rooms where the game is having quite a run just now, it goes by the name of English billiards, but as it isn't billiards at all, that is evidently a misnomer. A number of the pool experts to whom the game is familiar said yesterday that it was French pool, but, so far as known, the game is not played in France any more than it is in this country. Perhaps some of the Press' reader! may be able to suggest a name which will fit the game. Here is a description of the way it is played: The balls are placed on an ordinary six-pocket pool table, as shown in th following diagram: twlrlers.
