Captain Hopkins' men havo rolled
floven out of their clfiht matches now,
which number In hii-Rer than that rolled
by any other league, team. Sixteen
thousand throo hundred and twenty
pln.s havo been tcoicd In tho twenty
one games, and compared to this Is 14,
1T.7 matle by tho Commercials In eight
een Rames, and 13,5(10 rolled by the
HI Its In clqhteon K.tmost. Tho Elks were
nip and tuple with the llackus men,
hn vlni a safo load on the rest of thu
teams until last Thursday nlRht'H great
hauling by tho Commercial1: against
tho AVllkoF-lSarre AVect Ihul AVhoel
men sent the former team's total
ahead of the Elks, and within thirty
two pins of tho letidet.s.
Kcn If the Commercials roll In poor
form in their next contest and sooic
but ,aifi it will send tltom to ilrst
place. The Itacktls team's work has
not been neatly as good this season as
last. Captain Hopkins has boon tho
only man who has rolled u consistent
ly strong: game, with tho exception of
Alelster. Tho latter is a. recruit tiom
South Scranlon and throughout the
season has crowded his captain for tho
Illinois.
Hopkins' was high man throughout
tho tournament, tmtu his mediocre.
bowling Monday night on tlio llicyclo
club alleys pulled his average down.
At that, hn has 1CS i-S, for tw cut-one
games, w libit is ery fair bowling.
Alelster nlso goes over the Hit) murk.
Charles Fowler, the ('ominerelulh' cap
tain, is high man now, with tin av
erage of 1T1 fop llftoen gain.M.
Tho Wilkes Hurt t Hvu are at tho
foot of tlio list in totals rolled, so far,
but tho fact that the l.u.ornites have
only tolled live games to six of all the
others, except the Mai kits team, is ac
countable for their small total. Tho
AVest binders are bowling In good form
and the end of the season Is likely to
Hud them In a far better poslton than
tin Ir present ignoble slopping place
Titer., is a slirmg likelihood that at
the end of the league bowling touiuu
iiu nt, another series of ln.itih gaiius
will b ari.iiigod. It Is Intended to
stint it tournament, in which but two
men represent each of tho contesting
clubs, the i tack rollers ol each live be
ing selected to do tlie honors for their
association.
The Intel est taken lu bowling .seems
to lie hn leasing e.uli day, and eeiy

Accompanying Dwyer's chuck Is u.
letter, in which the wrestler states
thut he met Kardash the night Pur

CARRIE NATION COCKTAIL
Liquor Dealer Adveitihing It Con
demned by the W. C. T. U. at
Its Meeting Yesterday.
The members of central city branch
of the Women! Christian Temperance
union, al their regular meeting held
yesterday afternoon In Guernsey hall,
discussed nt some length the action of
a. local Iliiuor dealer who advertises
that a "Carrie Nation cocktail." made
with a certain brand of whiskey, which
lie sells Is "a smashing lino drink."
A number of tho members present
criticized the gentleman lu very strong1
tonus, Mrs. Downing, tho president,
asserted that It was "an Insult to name
uu intoxicating drink after such a
noble. Christian, temperance worker as
.Mis. Nation or after any woman, in
fact."
Mrs. Emily P. 1!. litmus tead a very
thoughtful paper on Prances E. Will
aid, the grout temperance worker, who
tecetitly died. Last Sunday was the
annlveisary of her death or, as It has
been put, "the anulversaiy of her
heavenly birthday." Among other
things, .Mrs. Ilioius said:
".Miss AVillard was so genial, bo af
fable to all, and ct so linn in prin
ciples of tight that like the adman
tine took she stood alone. She was a
ft lend to all, not collectively but Indi
vidually. She was so real in all that
she did and said.
"With Lady Henry Soiuetsot we be
lieve that 'long after the lompet.-ince
teforui has becomes a matter of past
history, long after the woman ques
tion has brought about tho equality of
men ami women, political, social and
llnancial, the name of Francos AVillard
will be retnetnbeied, not only as one
who led a gieat movement but as onu
w ho gave her life, her talent nnd her
enthusiasm to make the world wider
fop women and better fop humanity.' "
Final arrangements were completed
fop the banquet und luuugurul of John
(I. AVoolley. w hlcli Is to be bold In
fiuernsoy hall on the night of March 4.
Alp. AVoolley was the Prohibition can
didate for president, but was defeated.
Ills loyal lolloweis thtoughout the
count i y, however, have conceived tho
Idea of Inaugurating him on tho siiiikj
day thai Pte.sident McKinley hi luaug
lltated. Mr. AVoolley has written an
Inauguial address und this Is to be read
upon the occasion.
Addiesses will bo made by Airs. Hol
