st. Paul seems bound to "see'' the sis

her one better" When Charlie Capen
first came over to play in the present
tournament from Minneapolis at
Thomas Foley's he met Thayer, and
victory perehed on the pennant of the
latter. Then, later on in the same
week, Capen again appeared aud won
game from 4. p Foley So far. ST.
Paul and Minneapolis were able to
"brcak even" But the SANITY city was
not content to have the record stand
thus. Charlie Cepen came over again
last night, accompanied by Frank Bill
liter; met Glow, and was defeated by
the latter. At the cloSe-after Il Strug-
gle lasting through so inninys-Clow

Perhaps Bllljter. in stead of proving
Capen's mascot, turned out to be his
hoodoo, as he insinuated when getting
ready to go home When tie record
shows that it required eighty innings
to play out the game that tells the
whole Story-that it WAS a slow game.
Glow made double figures ten times-13,
Is. p, II, 10, 26, Is, IL, Is, II. Capen
doubled six times-l0, 12. 20. 16, II, II.
Capen seemed liStfeSS; the balls broke
hard and lined up. Glow, erratic as
usual, played by spurts. He made a
number of ricochets and went fiat on
easy shots.
Tonight t. P. Foley and Thomas will
contest for honorS.

New Jockey Club Meeting.
NEW YORK. Feb. 13.-1t was expected
by all those who claim to he OH the "ln-
side'' In horse racing matters. that
there would be large attendance of
horse owners and other interested
parties, who may or may not be in
sympathy with the views and aspira-
lions of the new jockey club at the

officer OF not, if found to have commit
ted an offenSe, will be summarily dealt

Seven inches of snow have fallen on the

terribly blocked. Through trains on
the Boston Il Maine, both Eastern and

SWELL ST. LOUIS MURDER.
Son OF Millionaire Silver King
Shoots His Wife and Son.

Shoots His Wife and Son.
ST. LOUIS, Feb. 13.-Dr. Duestrow, of
1924 South Compton avenue, walked
into the reservoir police station shortly
before o'clock this evening and sur
rendered himself, stating that he
had accidentally shot his wife.
He refused to make any further state
ment concerning the shooting, or to go
into any details further than to say that
it was accidental. Duestrow was locked
up and a palice officer was sent to inves-
igate the affair. 1t was learned later
that the doctor had shot both his wife
and five-year-old boy. Both were shot
in the head, and the child was killed,
but the wife is still alive.
Arriving at the house, it was found
that the child was dead with bullet in
its heart and one in its head. The
mother had received two bullets in
her head and was unconscious. Her
recovery is impossible, so the physici-
ans say. The exact reason Arthur
Duestrow had for committing the
deed is not known, but it is
said that for some time past he had not
been living happily with his wife. From
a wound Oh the prisoners head it is

self after shooting the other members
of his family. About o'clock
he was seen to drive up to
his residence, accompanied by a
man. Soon after entering the house
shots were heard and Duestrow reap
peared with his tace covered with blood.
He Immediately drove to the police sta
ton and gave himself up. He is thought
to be either feigning insanity or suffering
from the effects of protracted spree.
1t is surmised that young Duestrow,
who had been separated from his wife.
entered the house with the intention
OF taking away the child. and. meeting
with opposition. shot both it and its
mother. The shooting caused SEN

are wealth and very prominent

the son of the late millionaire, Lewis
Duestrow. who was at one time presi-
dent OF the Hope. Mining company, and
was connected with the Granite Mount
ain company. Those concerBsd moved

made by Corbett Sunday last. II tell
you l am not making any bluffs" said
he. This fighting is all matter
of business with me. OF course,
there is no use of challenging a
man who has already been matched,
and that keeps me from doing so.
If he thinks am afraid of him, I'll go
into room with him and fight him just
for fun, any way and under any rules"
FitZslmmons says, just as soon as the
Jackson fight is settled, he will prove
that he was in earnest. provided Corbett

Beating All Records.

Beating All Records.
The highest individual bowling rec
ord ever made i'll ST. Paul by any one
man on two alleys was achieved yester-
day afternoon at Foley's by Ed Beck, of
the Wabasha club. He beat the splendid
record made by Hastings, of the Sum-
mits, on Feb. Z, by ), making total of
272. A comparison of the work done by
these two men is of interest, and is as
follows:
Beck-2s, 20. %, 30. 80, 27, %, 80, 20,
2o-272.
Hastings-29, IS. 20, 81. II, 20, 2s, 80,
90, 30-267.
DIR. BertheI, of the Lafavettes, also
made the high score recently of PCS.
These facts show that st. Paul can
produce bowlers who can hold their own
against all corners.
