The. rhe Kramer Tri-City Cup. fellow with a grip i'oH of hoary chestnuts on "slow" Philadelphia had better keep out of the florist circlet^ of Washington for some time to come. The banquet to the visiting teams and their Iriends by the Washington Florists' Clu'b immedi- ately after the contest was endd^ was an enjoyable event. A large compaiiy was seated at the tables ol the Hotel F"tz Reuter,'which were handsomely decot'^ted with American Beauty roses, the decc'"'a- tion being the gift of A. Gude & Broth'er. After justice had been done the viani^s Toastmaster W. F. Gude introduce d Fred. H. Kramer, the donor of the tri-cit_^ cup, who in a few well chosen remark.'^ formally presented the cup to the Phila- delphia team. Appropriate responses were made by Messrs. Starkey and Dun- lop. After this there was quite a flow of oratory from members of the Baltimore delegation and several of the locals. Among the speakers were Capt. Seybold and Mr. Kreb, of Baltimore, Capt. Ernest, Adolphus Gude, William Clark and Johr' Robertson, of Washington. Mr. Kramer has offered to prese-^t another cup, to be designated Cup No • 7> for the greatest total number of pin" '° three games. The possibilities are that the New York club will be invited to par- ticipate in the next contest, which will not take place
