the percentage table of the bowling
tournament the past week, which
characterized the work of some OF the
alleged weak teams to surprising

was the manner the Government Hill
team handled the Missions last Mon
day night. The result Of the Casino
Turner game was as looked for, but
better work was expected Of the Tur-
ners. The Alamos have demonstrated
their ability to hold their own with
the leaders. 1t is expected that the
other teams will round to in few
more games.

Sommers' garden.

garden.

during the tournament is 1S,44O.
The Turner's hold the record for the
highest score of a single inning-Sl-
and the Government Hills the lowest

Issy Cahen has received the follow
ing letter from the Brunswick-Balke
Collender company in reply to a query:
"As to standard size of bowling alley
will say that there is no regulation

country. About two years since the
36-incn width was used almost exclu-
sively west of Buffalo and Pittsburg,
but during the past year the western
clubs adopted the eastern width, which
is AZ inches with length of IS feet"
The expense for the tournament will
be as follows: For pennant and sun
dry exepnse, s56; refreshments, s112:
