DISPUTE OVER BRIDGE.
The Game Ends in Assault and Court Case. LONDON, December 10. Anyone who calls ‘ two clubs,’ when holding only King, Queen, and two smaller cards of a suit, ought to be assaulted,” declared counsel during a bridge lawsuit. James Boggan criticised the temerity of his partner, William Darrell, in so calling, whereupon Darrell smacked his face, and a struggle followed. Counsel persuaded the men to shake hands and withdraw both summons and counter-summons for assault.
