High ,n I. igp Taylor, 1R2. The first botvling tournament of any consequence which has been conducted In this city In recent years opened on Thursday afternoon last on the Uampe alleys and will i continue throughout the month. Gieat interest Is being manifested by bowlers and the alleys are being engaged for next week by live men and two men teams. The Backus Northeastern League team will contest for the prize offered to the live men teams and Hopkins and Mooie will compete us a two man team. This pair of bowlers ought to make any other team hustle mighty lively to get a chance at the prize as they aie the high average men of the Northeastern league for the first and second series of games respectively. The showing which has so far been made by the Franklins, of the Scranton Bowling league, is u splendid one and as they will meet only the Hampe and South Side teams within the next three weeks they should be able to maintain their lead. The bowling done by this team has not been so very remarkable though It managed to roll up two good games on Thursday night. The element of luck has entered large ly Into Its success as witness the last game won on Thursday night by a bare nine pins. Anderegg is keepings up his superior howling and is rolling away every night with an aveiage of about 175. The. members of the South Side team aie playing together better now than at any time since the team's organiza tion and It looks as If they will finish a great deal closer to the top than they did last time. The effort made at Inst .Sunday's meeting to freeze them out of the league was unsuccessful, the proposition being voted down by u good majority. l. W.'ltoll, the former captain of the li.ickus team, has taken charge of the X.ulager alleys and Intends to make a number of substantial Im provements In the place. Ho has join ed the Arlington team and consider ably strengthened Melster's following, who are giving tho Franklins a haul race tor llrst place. The final three games to (be rolled by the Hackus and Serunton Bicycle Club teams to decldo the champion ship of the Northeastern league will be played next week, It having been found Impossible to piny thPin last night. Of tho torly bowlein In the .Scranton league who rolled last Thuisday night only six had averages of 107 or over that Is, made u total score of 500 or over for three games, Tho highest score, made for the night was 217 and tho highest average was 183 1-U. This Is a record which Is just about the average and which shows that there Is amplo room for Improvement. It Is (tuestlonable, however, whether much better marks will bo done because of the approaching hot weather.

Feibcr says was unquestionably of In cendiary origin, broke out yesterday morning in tho stable on Adams ave nue In the reur of the Municipal build ing, formerly occupied by Belles' livery. Smoke was noticed issuing from tho stable shortly before 7 o'clock and a still alarm brought Chemical company No. 1 to the scene. The blnzd was found to be In the cellar and was easily extinguished. A smell of oil led Super intendent Ferber to make an investi gation and he discovered waste paper and rags saturated with kerosene spread all over the cellar and on the ground floor. It was apparent that three separate fires had been started, only one of which had remained alight. A window In the rear of the stable within a hun dred feet of police headquarters was broken open. Superintendent of Police Duy was notified and hus begun an In vestigation. The building is owned by Mrs. Franc T. A'all. A slight blaze on the third floor of the building on North Washington avenue adjoining the Guernsey build ing and owned by J. D. Williams and brothers, occurred early yesterday morning. It was caused by the care less throwing of a cigar or match on a bed in a front room. The fire was extinguished by the chemical company but not before about $100 damage had been done. ARTISTIC CARRYING ACT. Introduced by Erench, Artists at Forepaugh and Sells Bros.. Show. La Duo De Vene is the name of a pair of French artists that have been brough to this country fcy the Adam Forepaugh and Sells Brothers shows. They do a remarkably artistic "carry ing act," In which the lady rides in a full-length ball gowne. It is a difficult feat of equestrianism and is exceed ingly pretty to look at. They are also pel formers of a novelty act called Cranial equillbrism, in which the lady la handled by her partner of the sterner sex as If she were a puff ball, and the act terminates by his standing her on her head upon his head and while she Is in this break neck position he runs around the show with her In the most reckless sort of a manner. It Is a wonder he does not break her neck, but. it is safe o say, he has not done so yet. They are cer tainly a most remarkable pair and will be seen with the Adam Forepaugh and Sells Brothers enormous shows united, on Tuesday, May 20 .

PAINE'SCELERV COMPOUND Tlionsnnds of Physicians, Men nnd Women of Note nnd Position, and People In Humbler Cir cumstances Say It Is Un equalled ns n Spring Medicine. A Prominent Business Man Saved fi'om Nor?ou3 Prostration. It Is by true lneilt, and true merit alone, that Palne's Celery Compound hna won ItH wondrous popularity In every part of the civilised world. When all other medicines fall, when the best directed efforts of physicians iii-eompllsli but little for the banishing of despurntu diseases, I'alne's Celery Compound saves life and restores health. it Is natural, therefore, that men and women saved from the perils and dan gers of nervous diseases, rheumatism, neuralgia, and blood troubles, should acquaint their friends tho sick and well of what was accomplished for them by Palne's Celery Compound. In this way the glad tidings of prompt and effectual cures have been spread from day to day to the remotest towns and villages, and the blessed work of life saving progresses In every direc tion. One of the most remarkable cures of recent years effected by Palne's Celery Compound, is the case of Mr. Wyan Nelson, president of the Nelson Grain Co., of Kansas City, Mo. With Intense gratitude and thankfulness, Mr. Nel son writes as follows: "I was nervous, despondent, Irritable, had no appetite, could not sleep, and had night sweats. My physicians said I was threatened with nervous prostra tion, and advised a rest from business. However, on the recommendation of my partner, I commenced using Palne's Celery Compound, and today I am as sound as a dollar, eat well, sleep well, and am not at all nervous." DIAMOND DYES who (Jilrr .mil lulghtcr culois limn an othci ilje.. Uve bids. In corroboration of this they point to the fact that they received a premium of $13,000 on $223,000 worth of bonds, while the city Is boasting of having received a premium of J9.000 on $283,000 worth.
