This invention consists in what may be termed a ten-pin billiard-table, wherein a table of the general form of a billiard or bagatelle table is provided with anelevated alley,
at 011e end of which ten wooden pins are spotted over holes through the alley and table. Each pin has a string in its base, leading` through the spot-hole, the ten strings being united to a single cord fastened to a knob in the front end of the frame, by pulling which all the pins that have been knocked down are set up over their spots. The gaine is played with a ball and cue, the ball returning to the front by passing through one of the three holes at the back end of thetable onto an ineline, Which conducts it to the front.

At the back end of the bed three holes, c, are bored through it, large enough to pass down a billiard-ball,
