Interesting Bowling Contests at Car
roll Institute.
COLLEGE AND AMATEUR ATHLETES MEET
Current News of the Base Ball
Players.
A NEW RACIN ACK

The bowling match on the alleys of the
Carroll Institute last night between the
home team and the team of the Young
Mems Catholic Literary Association of
Elizabeth, N. j., resulted in three victories
for the local bowlers.
Will Downey did the best work for the
CAROLS. He bowled down 4T5 pins for his
serial run, and he also made 1874 pins for
the highes individual score of the match.
For the Jersey bowlers Sauer did the best
work. He ran OF AIS pins for the best
serial score of the evening, and he also
made 172 pins for the highest individual
score for his team.
The CAROLS bowled down 2,159 pins,
which Melted them a team average of 1l9
2-3 per game, and the Jerseys got 2o62 to
their credit, which put their team average
at 6S7 1-3. The individual scores and the
team totals and averages are pretty low.
Last nights contest is no fair test of the
work which the visiting bowlers are capa-
bic of doing; for their style and manner of
bowling stamp them at once as players OF
a high order. 1t is a well-known fact that
the Carroll alleys are hard to bowl on.
The scores in detail are as follows:

False reports From Raleigh.

The special sent from Raleigh, N. c.,
Thursday night, to the United Press, to the
effect that the legislature would not ad-
journ In honor of Gen. Lee on his birth
day, is utterly false. The Caucasian con-
tradicts from the official records every ma
terial statement sent out In the false dis
patch The legislature did adjourn in honor
of Gen. Lee on his birthday, the motion to
adjourn being made by a republican. There
is no truth in the statement that the legis-
lature refused to adjourn in honor Of
Washington. The truth being that it did
adjourn In his honor yesterday, for the
first time since 1s74-75 The legislature did
refuse, on Thursday, to adjourn till Mon
day for the members to attend the New
Berne fair. The statements sent out are
false in every particular, SO far as they
relate to Generals Washington and Lee.

Income Tax Curiosities.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
On looking over the legislation OF the
English parliament on Income tax" find
some very curious enactments, which have
been overlooked by our solons on Capitol
Hill during the debate on that question.
BY the and Of William III, chap. G.,
which was passed 1695. and which granted
his majesty certain rates and duties upon
MARRIAGES, births and burials, and upon
bachelors and wtdowers for five years. for
carrying on the war against France with
vigor,' is an instance; and another will be
found in the higher charge for the servants
of bachelors. first imposed by Mr.. Pitt in
1885, and contir ued for considerable time.
By So, George III, chap. 93. unmarried
daughters Of person alive were exempt from
the tax on hair powder; and in the income
tax of 179S deductions were made on &C.
count of children, s per cent being allowed
to a. person who had q family and whose
income was above EGO and under f4O0 a
year. corresponding deductions being made
in other cases.
Much might be said in favor Of such dis
tinctions on the ground Of expediency, as
they enable the government to impose
higher taxation by leSsening the burden on
the members of the community who are
most likely to complain; but their recogni-
ton In practice would no doubt be regarded
as impossible by the fnanciers of our day,
who have heretofore failed to distinguish
between incomes derived from realized
property and from personal labor.

The player, who had the ace and king

in that suit had king, jack. eight and six,
naturally led trumps. since he was sure
of nine tricks If he could exhaust them,
and there was nothing in his own hand
to indicate how unevenly the suits were
actually divided.
But he did not take single trick The
hands were as follows:
Clubs, A, Q, Q, Z.
Diamonds, -.

trick, Y, on the first lead of trumps, could

chances on not having the ten of clubs.
After that the play was easy.
1t will be noticed that If A had played
diamonds instead of trumps he could have

Michael Burke and Charles Burrows had
an unpleasant experience at the corner Of
Pennsylvania avenue and 9th street about
8 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and now
they are both to be tried in the Police
Court. The Crawford Paving Company is
doing some concrete work along the line of
the new electric road at the crossing, and
as barricades could not be put there Burke,
who is employed as Waterman by the COM
pany. stood there and waved teams Ground
the newly laid pavement. Burrows. who
was driving heavy ice wagon, came along
and refused to turn his horses 10 one side
when the Waterman motioned to him. The
Waterman, 1t is charged, grabbed the ami
mails by the bride, and while holding them.
1t is alleged, he struck one of the animals
over the head with a piece of board. When
the driver got his animals started again,
it is charged, he started to drive over the
soft concrete. and drove in so reckless
manner that he not only injured the new
pavement, but knocked down and injured
the Waterman. His injuries, however are
not serious. although bystanders thought
he would be picked up. dead when the
wagon had passed over him.

The Time Has Come for Their Rigid
Enforcement.
The time allowed by the Commissioners
to the housekeepers to comply with the
garbage regulations has elapsed, and with
in few days proceedings will be insti-
tuted in the Police Court against those
who have failed to comply with them.
These regulations have been neatly printed
on a card and distributed throughout the
city. A perusal of them at this time will
be of berefit. Among other things. the
householder must provide a suitable recep-
tacle for garbage, provided with a tight
cover, and keep the same in repair. 1t
must be placed between Z o'clock in the
morning until 6 o'clock in the evening in q
place convenient and easily accessible to
the collector. Another important provision
Is that each householder having a street
and alley entrance shall place at the alley
entrance the street and number Of the
house. Failure to comply with these regu-
lations makes the offender liable to fine OF
not more than $50 nor less than S.. and in
default of payment imprisonment in the
work house for not more than thirty days.
