Opening OF a Tournament at the Catho-
lie Club.
The bowling tournament opened at the
Catholic Club last night, and a score OF
ambitious hurlers of the ball participated.
The club intends having a ten men team,
as il is contemplated to arrange series of
games with clubs in the diocese. The
team will be composed of the ten Dowlers
making the highest average in ten games.
They are not restricted to ten attempts.
but can bowl as many games as they
choose, and the average will be deter.
mined by the ten best scores. To be eligi-
BILE, however, each contestant must bowl
at least ten games.
The majority who tried last night
were entire novices or very rusty
and with a few exceptions,
the totals were low. Many OF
the beginners are starting properly. They
have the right method of delivering the
ball, but failed in making spares. With
steady practice they will get the ball in
the right spot. It was the failure in
spares that kept many Of the scores down.
Inc tournament will terminate on the
last day OF this month. Many totals
were made last night. but only those the
bowlers had recorded were:-D. Mallen.

munity by building its first house and
opening a grocery. When the railway came
and went on, he went with it and was a
rich man before he settled in Evanston, a
thrifty town near the Utah line. In that
section he is the big man. He owns the
local bank, herds of cattle and tracts of
range, coal mines and coal and timber
lands. His hobby is horses, and he breeds
trotters on the finest farm in the noun
tains. He brings Wilkes stock from Ken
lucky and makes money.
His religious denomination is Methodist,
and he is a native of New York, has been
married 10 years and has four children.
Though his early education was defective,
he is a man of wide reading and consider
able culture and can make a good speech.
Being the richest man In Wyoming, owner
of one ranch of So sections, of which 14,000
acres are under cultivation, he will make a
very pleasant addition to that 'spleasantest
of social clubs and greatest collection of
millionaires in the world'-the United
States senate.

Haynes fiery speech have been
to Daniel Webster if he had not, with
the instinct of genius. long before
which he repealed with such
crushing energy? Had he not
previously weighed and refuted
of his opponent, his reply, instead OF
ranking among the greatest master
pieces of oratory, might have only re-
vealed his own weakness. Thousands
of men had seen the print of a horses
hoofs in the soil before Faust dis
covered by them the art of printing.
The discovery by Edison of the car
bon by which he perfected his tele-
phone seems a happy accident; but
such accidents never happen to COM
some SCOT from the blackened chimney
of his laboratory lamp, and in a spirit
of curiosity tested it's properties. 1t
proved to be the very thing for which
he was searching; but behind
this fortunate discovery was a
series of exhausting and exhaustive
experiments with all kinds Of likely
materials, absorbing the energies OF
many months. The lucky hit reward
ed the persistent will of a patient
workman. So with the young and
obscure lawyer who conducts and
wins a difficult case, as did Thomas
Erskine, IN his elders illness; or the
struggling surgeon who has a sudden
chance of distinction offered to him;
he must have had a long and labor
ious preparatory training before he
can profit by such an emergency. In
short, a great opportunity is worth to
a man precisely what his antecedents
have enabled him to make of it.

A most important feature Of a lady's
wardrobe is her petticoat, and not infre-
quently this now gloriied article of ap-
parel, which was once modestly hidden
beneath the gown, forms the keynote of
the entire costume. A poetic production
of lace and silk destined to form part Of
a brides rousseau is Of pale blue glace
silk, with a brocade of pink rosebuds. In
the edge of the hem is a linked ruf1e of
the brocade; above this is a pinked
founce of plain pink silk, with a white
lace rufle falling entirely over it, and

Horses Names to Identity millionaires.

Similarity of names is often a source of
much annoyance to the owners, but when
the cognomens are identical in every respect
the difficulty Of Identification increases. A
case which pointedly illustrates this fact
has caused much amusement. Nathan
Stratus, partner in 9 widely known general
store, and Nathan Stratus, wholesale mer-
chant, are both residents of New York, both
owners Of fast horses and both members of
the Driving club. One owns the trotter
Majolica, the other the trotter Sooner, and
each is distinguished from the other, when
named by third parties, by the addition of
of his horses name. So well recognized is
this distinction that even It's subjects have
accepted it, and official notices on the bull
letin board of the club sometimes appear
signed Nathan Straus Majolicay' or INA
chan Stratus (Sooner)," as the case may be.

the two founces are put on beneath q
ruching made of a strip Of pink silk over
a wider che of blue, each pinked on the
edges and plated through the center.
From this ruche falls over the lace a
fringe of loops Of bebe ribbon, pink and
blue alternated.
Plain brussels net founces, with bead
;ngs through which colored ribbons are
threaded, are also prettily frilled on the
petticoat, which is now a veritable edi-
ton de luxe, for 80 full are the new

her pet luxury Of silk Innings
too, unless her allowance be regal, for
the new skirts consume almost twice the
material required for last seasonal
gowns.
Black stockings are all the rage. That
sounds somber, doesn't it? But they are
anything but somber, combined as they
are with light green, pale violet. blue or

took a homestead and a tree claim near
Larimore, Where he has since resided. He
was interested in Larimore in 1881 and
agent of the town site company and organ
lied the city government in 1883. He was
the first mayor and was reelected for three
successive terms, operating his farms
meanwhile.
In 1889 he was Democratic candidate for
governor and was defeated by som 14,000
majority. In 1890 he was again his party's
candidate and failed of election by only 600
votes, this being a fair measure of the
rapid political changes in the new state.
His election as senator, however, was due
to factional fights among the Republicans,
who had a large majority in the legislature.
In 1872 Mr.. Roach married daughter of
DR.. Liebenauer in Washington city. She
died in 1890, and the senator's family now
consists of two sons and a daughter.

ELrLupGE PAXON.

He Surprised His Friends by Resigning an
Honorable and Lucrative Office.
The chief justice of Pennsylvania holds
the Office seven years and receives $500 a
year, so there was some surprise when
Chief Justice Edward NJ. Paxson resigned
that place to become enc Of the receivers of
the Reading railroad combination. He is
succeeded by the senior associate justice,
James P. Sterrett, whose term begins de
O and will therefore continue till 1900.
In fact, the Pennsylvania judicial terms
are SO long that to most incumbents it
means office for life. Judge Sterrett was
appointed to a vacancy in 1877, and two
years later was elected to a21-year term.

chant in Wichita for several years, he was
nominated, but as soon as it was known
that he was "a Wichita man" all Wichita
widely enthusiastic in his praise.
It's a way Wichita has, and the results
have been good for Wichita. The governor
lives away out of town In a small house of
seven rooms. Even his place of business is
IL miles from the city center. 1t is such a
very modest sort Of suburban trading shop
that a majority of the citizens had never
seen it previous to his nomination, and the
only sign about the place bears the letter
ing: Commission Merchant. Cash For
Butter and Eggs" without the proprietor's
name. His home is a very cheerful one,
however; his wife is considered remarkably
beautiful, and his four daughters are all
attractive in their several ways.
OF these only the baby, Ruth, aged 8, is
the daughter of the present Mrs. Level
ling, who is a cousin of the former Mrs.
Lewelling and nursed the latter during her
last illness. The governor was born and
reared In Henry county, Ia, and is mixed
Scotch and Welsh stock. Yhe family name
is simply the American form of the old
Welsh Llewelyn, the name SO famous in
the royaa annals of Wales. The governor
has an uncle in Washington who spells the
name Lueling, as it is pronounced.
''The reporters at first got my front name
Lorraine" said the governor in a recent in
terview, and when they got it back to Lo-
reno they naturally concluded that the D.
was for Don, but it was only added by my
self when a boy to round out my signature.
