LATEST SOCIETY GAME. ramboorello I Taking the Place of Lawn Teaaia Among the Swell Clubs. A new game has invaded the ranks of society and seems destined to spread much as ping-pong did a few yeara ago. It bears the somewhat euphenlou? name of tambourello, deriving the. name from the instrument of the play, vrhich is .' nothing more or less than a tambourine. tne game is piayea exactly ukc lawn - tennis, the difference being that in stead of a racket a tambourine is used But tnis difference is a big one, as puyuuuy who uas ever yiayeu mwn ten - Bis Will readily understand. That the game has prospects of becoming pop ular is evidenced by the fact that two clubs have recently made application to the London -county council for per mission to play tambourello in the parks under the council's control, and this permission has been readily ac- coraea, says me Lionaon uauy Man. The physical exercise afforded by tambourello is considerable, and to hit the ball with such an awkward instru ment requires a remarkably Btrontr wrist. Nothing but practice can develop this particular type, which will latrr no doubt .be known as the tambourello wrist. The tambourine, by the way, if the player so wishes, can be fitted with the U3ual bells, which" will lend a mu sical accompaniment to the game. The sounds produced by four players with bell-fitted tambourines would certainly be an adldtion to the game and to the lady player would probably prove par tlcularly, attractive. While tambourello will probably be come very popular among the gentler sex, men will also find In the game pastime at which it is by no means easy to become an accomplished player. Beginners find it very hard to return, a ball over the net at all. When they make their first attempts' the tambour ine lacks driving power or apparently lacks it until the secret of Its driving capabilities has been dlccovered. It takes some practice to make the discov ery, but when the trick of driving the ball has been learned Immense impetus : can De given It with the tambourine. The game in the London parks will, of course, be played on grass, but an asphalt court offers better facilities. Volleying cannot be indulged in, and a slow court, as a grass court often Is, es pecially after rain, does not permit of a good back game. Lady players will es pecially appreciate the advantages of of playing from the back of the court, for It Is doubtful if ever they could develop the tambourello wrist sufficiently to en able them to volley to any great extent. A yet there is no recognized tam bourello champion, but doubtless next season will see his or her arrival. BONDS OWNED AT HOME. I'nMed States Securities Are for the Moat Part In the Poaaesalon of Oar Own People. ' Probably fewer United States bonds are owned outside of the country than those of any other first-class nation in the world. This is largely accounted for by the fact that the bonds have a peculiar value to the national banks as a basis for circulation which raises their market price to a point where they cease to be desirable for ordinary Investors. The total of bonds held by foreigners to ' day Is $15,055,750, says the New York Post. Of this amount individuals own less than $4,000,000; the rest belong to foreign insurance companies doing busi ness In the United States. Defore a for eign insurance company can do busi ness in the United States It must de posit with the insurance commissioner of the particular state it seeks to in vade a certain amount of bondB, regi istered in the name of th insurance commissioner for the benefit of the pol icy holders of the company in that 'state.' Thus, If the Phoenix Insurance com pany, of London, England, desires to do business in Ohio it deposits with the insurance commissioner an amount of bonds determined by the value of busi ness, Inscribed as folows: "The Insur ance commissioner of the state of Ohio,' in trust for the policy holders of the Phoenix Insurance company of London, England, residing in Ohio. " Of the In dividual foreign holdings of United States bonds nearly half of them, for some reason, are in Cuba. Our neigh bors are doubtless attracted by the se curity which the bond offers. In the earlier stages of the country's history large blocks of its bonds were held abroad and branches of the treas ury department were opened In London for their transfer and exchange. The French people to-day are great holders of the bonds of various other nations, but they are handling very few of the United States. Quite a part of the loan made by the last Cleveland administra tion went Into the hands of foreign in vestors at an early date in its history. But with the Increasing means of the American people and the growing de mand of the national banks, these se curities have begun to come back, un til now the world may be searched al most In vain for them.
