B0WLED OUT THE FIRE.
Members of the Linden Club Extin-
gufsh FLAMES and Too.

A number of members of the Linden
Bowling Club were rolling a practice
game on Edinger's alley, Linden avenue,
at half past three o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon when Pop Edinger who had
been shoveling snow outside, rushed in
excitedly and yelled eff you boys want
to roll a match game tonight, you'd bet
ter put out this fire." The photograph
gallery of Peter July next door had
caught fire and was being fast reduced
to ashes. Eddie Edinger grabbed a
bowling ball and hurled it at the door
of the gallery. The door flew from its
hinges and the bowlers who had or
gained themselves into a volunteer fire
department for the time being were soon
creating more ruin than the flames ac-
complished.
The camera which was priced highly by
Mr.. July was hurled through the glass
skylight, wrecking both the camera and
skylight. All the Movable furniture fol-
lowed suit, and as each piece went
through the opening made by the cam
ere more glass was taken from the sky
light. Pop Edinger finding water scarce,
used snow instead, and by the time the
firemen of No. 10 Engine arrived, the
flames were ~extinguished. The loss is
$50 and is insured.
the blaze would have communicated
to the alleys which, being well soaked
with oil would have furnished excellent
food for the flames.

LINDENS WINNERS
With Montreal in Sight the
Greenville Bowlers Are
Rolling High.
MR.. voss ANSWERS WEIGEL
Says Every Opportunity to Roll

Gaelic Football.
Mr.. Voss ANSWERS WEIGEL

If the crack Lindens of Greenyille do
not win the New Jersey Section series of
the American Amateur Bowling Union
it will not be because they are not roll
ing a better game than the other clubs
in the h C~eleryyille
bowiers up to date. own everything in
the section that is worth having. The
Lindens lead in the team average, hav-
ing an average of 1926 4-6 ~(including last
nights game) for six games. And in
the individual work. two of the three
highest, men are member of the strong
Greenville aggregation. Bueky Franz OF
the Lindens leads in the individual aver
ages and is head and shoulders above
the other men. Francs average for six
games is 1874 1-6, and his highest score
IS 225. Captain Weingarth of the Berke-
leys of Newark is second with 1882, but
as he has rolled only two games he will
ave to do some tall rolling to stay in
the race. The third highest man is Geo.
Dickson of the Lindens. His average Is
ISL is for six games.
The Lindens have still four games to
roll in the New Jersey Section; on n
airy Z with the Americas, and on January
IL with the Alphas, both at home; and on
January 10 with the Arlingtons and on
January Il with the Riversides, both
abroad. The two home and the Arlington
game abroad will go to the Lindens,
unless something goes wrong. These vic
tories Will give them a grip on first place,
and ehe only team that may beat them
out are the Riversides. Should this hap
pen the Lindens will be in second place
for further orders, and this will practi-
cally be as good as first honors, as it will
entitle them to roll in the finals with the
winners of the New York and Brooklyn
Sections. AT the opening of the tourna-
ment the Lindens were looked upon by
the strong Newark clubs as a cinch, but
the G%reenville lads soon demonstrated
that their capabilities had been misjudg-
ed. Last night at Pop Edinger's alley the
Lindens moved up a peg, and by defeat
ing the Riyersides, who were in first
place. tied them for first honors. each
team having four victories and two de-
feats. Having the advantage of the home
alley the Lindens thought it safe to try
a new man, and so George Weigel, a new
man, was given al opportunity to roll.
It being his first match game with the
Lindens Weigel naturally felt a trife
saaky, but he made a fair score never
theless. The game belonged to the Lin
Gens from the start, and although they
led by q small margin in the first frames
they made their usual wind up and beat
their opponents by an ven $50 pins, and
making a good score besides. Bucky
Franz added a few points to his average
by smashing the pins for a score of
203. Eddie Edinger won second honors
with the score of 1Sa, and Dickson was
third with 179 Joe Flloramo rolled in his
o1d-time form and made the good score
of 169. Pierson was high man on the
Riverside team with 1877. Following is

Mr.. VOSS REPLIES.
Says That Weigel Was Warned to
Return by Ten O'Clock.

The following Communication explains
ITSELF
Jersey City, Dec. q, 1894.
To the Editor of the Jersey City News:
By an article in THE Jer-
sey City News" this evening 1 see that
Mr.. George Weigel is dissatisfied with
the manner in which the first prize was
awarded IN the prize bowling contest
on my alleys, Christmas Day. Mr.. Wei
gel has nobody to blame but himself.
for failing to receive the first prize. He
claims that he was out of town and that
he could not be here to roll off in case
his score was tied. This is no excuse,
for I gave him distinctly to- under
stand early in the afternoon when he
left the alleys he would have to return
by ten O'Clock if his score was tied, so
that he could roll off,. / waited until a
quarter past eleven o'clock, but Mr..
Weigel did not put in an appearance.
Mr.. Vreeland, who tied his score, was
there ready to RON off, and SO 1 awarded
him the prize, to the entire satisfaction
of every one of the other contestants.
1 hin this perfectly fair to all concern
ed. I followed to the letter the rules laid
down to Weigel earlier in the day.
Hoping that you will give these few
lines space in your valuable paper, I
remain
Yours truly,

such occasions do everything in their
power to make them spend a pleasant

many of the young ladies did not ven

jolly time. They played cards and sang
and INDUCED in impromptu debates.
The clubhouse is improving in appear
ance all the time. The members take
a lively interest in it's welfare, and their
lady friends present them with pretty
decorations, which find conspicuous
places.
The bowling alleys are in fine con-
dition, and it is said that an effort is
to be made to arrange a match between
ladies in a short time. The pool tables
are always well p~atronized, and some of
the lady visitors are becoming experts
at the game.
