Fourth street. The bride was Miss Lila
Hoge, daughter of the parents named,
and Mr.. Edgar Alden Bedford, OF Du-
buque, Iowa, was the lucky man. oW-
ing to the death OF the hroom's sister re-
Gently, the affair was unostentauohA
The twenty-five guests were nearly az

NATIONAL BOWLING CONTESTS.

NATIONAL BOWLING CONTESTS.
Says Sam Karpf. the bowling expert:
There is now a movement on foot TO add
to the many features of the annual
sportsmen's exposition, TO be held at
Madison Square garden, in New York
city, during the second week of Janu-
airy, a bowling tournament, open to all
regularly organized clubs in the United
States, with a view of at last discover
Ing who are the real team champions,
and to whom belongs the credit OF be-
ing the best individual bowler. The
plan was discussed last season, but fell
through, because the bowlers outside OF
New York and the immediate vicinity
would be handicapped, as they were
rolling games On narrow alleys, as well
as on those built Of maple. Since that
time q wonderful change has taken
place. All the leading bowlers through
out the United States are now playing
their games on regulation forty-two-
inch alleys, and In most Of the places
the combination pine and maple alleys,
such as are only used in the east, have
also been erected. So II al be readily
noticed that the tournament talked OF
at the sportsmen's exposition will be a
strictly neutral affair as the alleys on
which the games are to be rolled will
only be opened on the same day the first
games are to be rolled. This will in no
way give any Of the local teams an adj
vantage. All clubs bowling the Amer
lean game, in the south. north or west,
will be- invited to compete, and as spe-
clal railroad rates will be arranged for
by the committee in charge OF the ex-
position. there Is not n particle Of doubt
that many Of them will accept.

NEW HAVEN, Conn. Nov. OR. j.
Cook and Captain Whitney, OF the Yale
boat crew, were asked to-day about the
report that Cornell would be challenged
to a race by Yale, and that a triangular
contest Of Yale, Harvard and Cornell
would follow. They stated that as yet
nothing was determined, that the mat
ter was held entirely in allegiance,
pending negotiations with the New
London board OF trade with reference
to inducements for the Yale-Harvard
race at New London. When that was
settled the matter OF arranging q race
with Cornell would DO considered. Thus
far II had been discussed only In the
most general way and absolutely no
decision OF any kind has been arrived
at. The sentiment of Yale graduates
and undergraduates has, however, nc
cording 10 Coach Cook, been canvassed,
and in general seems favorable to n
race with Cornell, that sentiment be-
ing shared by some members Of the
faculty.

The Wealth OF Bolivia.

"Bolivia is one of the richest countries
In minerals In the world, said Mr.. Alex
ander Santos, who represents that republic
as consul in the United States, In the
course Of recent conversation. "Our
mountains are full of silver and gold, and
though vast quantities of the former have
been already taken out, there has as yet
been but little development Of the gold
mines. The reason Is that we have no
railroads and consequently no means of
transporting machinery over the noun
tains. 1t Ia only a question Of time when
capitalists will build railroads and open
up tho country. In the last two or three
months 1 have had letters by tho hun
dreds, inquiring about Bolivia's resources,
and in many instances have been instru-
mental In causing prospectors to go there.

district Is opened to mining 1t will excoed
