MORE FINE BOWLING
CONCLUSION OF THE GREATER NEW
YORK SERIES HERE.
Excellent Showing of the Local Teams
The Individual scores Made
Yesterday.

The Greater New York team witnessed
some good bowling during the two days
contests on the Independent alleys and al
though 1t took every game from the home
players, the members speak highly of the
men who at times pushed them to their best
bowling to prevent the lowering of their
colors. In yesterdays contests the New
Workers did not attain the record they made
the afternoon before, but bowled more
steadily and won seven games from various
teams. In the afternoon games their OPP
ponents were the captains of the various
teams of the indianapolis Tenpin League.
After taking two games the New Workers
played against a team composed of the five
men among their opponents who had the
highest scores in the previous games. This,
Ike the other games they won without
trouble although the interest manifested
from the spectators seats showed how much
the admirers of the captains team appre-
ciated the efforts of the losers. The attend
ance yesterday was larger both afternoon
and evening than on the previous day.
The Greater New York team will try to
arrange for a match game on the Indepen-
dent Turner alleys with the All-American
team. another crack organization now on the
road. Negotiations have been going on be-
tween the two teams which have hitherto
hinged upon the selection of satisfactory al
leys. The visitors believe that the alleys
used by them here will be satisfactory to
the All-Americans.
Yesterdays scores were:

The Supreme Court held yesterday that
one who rides a bicycle or drives over a
sidewalk made of brick stone, plank or
gravel may not be prosecuted under a city
ordinance because the state statute of 1881,
hearing on the misdemeancr still obtains,
and The law does not intend that a person
may be prosecuted under two different laws
for the same offense The Circuit Court dis
charged Henry Doob, of Whiting, charged
under a city ordinance with riding a bicycle
over Il sidewalk. and the Supreme Court
affirmed the decision. Judge Bowling said a
city ordinance which provided against driv-
ing over "A sidewalk made of other material
than brick. stone, plank or gravel-the ma
terials named in the state statute-would
be valid.
This decision brings to mind the case of
the city Of indianapolis against John Hig-
gins who was charged under the city
statute with driving across the sidewalk 10
reach the Big -Four freight station, on South
Delaware street. This sidewalk is made Of
asphalt. In this case the matter of what
the sidewalk was made of was not consid-
cred, but under Judge Dowllng's ruling. at

cross this sidewalk violate the ordinance OF
the city providing that il Is unlawful to
drive a draft animal or a vehicle along or

SUPREME TRIBUNAL.
High Court of the N. of II. Considering
MOOted QuestiOns--New Rituals.

At noon yesterday the Supreme Tribunal
of the Knights of Pythias met at the Deni-
son Hotel to dispose of legal questions in
the order. The much-mooted case of Henry
Wellenvoss, of Louisville, which has been
before the court of the order for several
years. came up again. The members OF the
tribunal said that the other cases they have
before them are of minor Importance and
that their work would probably be finished
to-day. The Wellenvoss case is the out
growth of the question of a German ritual,
which brought about the secession Of a few
lodges. 1t is thought Wllenvoss will be
finally expelled.

copies of the new ritual of the Uniform
Rank, for which the old ones are being sent

Y.P. S. C. E. CELEBRATION.
Father Clark Discusses Expansion
Letter from the President.

BOSTON, Feb. 2.--The eighteenth ami
versary of the founding of the Christian
Endeavor Society was celebrated in Tre-
mont Temple tonight by nearly five thou
sand people, representing the Christian
Endeavorers of New England. Rev. DIR.
Francis l.. Clark, founder of the society,
was the special guest, and he made a ring
ing address on 1.-The attitude of the young
Christian towards the territorial expansion
of the United States. Rev. DR.. Clark said:
THE very reason why the problem is now
confronting us, the very reason why these
fair islands have fallen from the neryeless
grasp of Spain, is that she has forgotten
our Lords golden rule. She has exploited
those subject races for her own benefit, she
has taxed them and oppressed them and
her corrupt politicians have fattened at the
colonial crib. If, with this spirit and pur-
pose, our Nation enters upon an age of
conquest and uses the wonderful victories
of 1898 simply to promote her greed for ter
ritorial conquest and her lust for CONNER
cial gain, she will deserve and will receive
the fate of Spain at the hands of a just and
righteous God Our mother country, Great
Britain is shining example in all the
worlds history of the advantage of just
and generous treatment toward subject
peoples and backward races. do not say
that we should emulate Englands example
and acquire colonies in all parts of the
world but l do say that, whatever is done,
we cannot escape from the respoI slblllties
or scuttle away from our obligations. We
must face the future
Rev George c. Lorrimer, pastor of Ire
mont Temple, made an anh-eXpansion adj

the evening read telegram from President
Mckinley and messages from Hon. George
r. Hoar and Hon. John d. Long Mr. Nc
Kiney, addressing Dr. Clark, said: You
have my hearty congratulations and best
wishes for the great organization over
which you preside" The communications
were received with cheers, although that
from Secretary Long seemed to receive the
most marked demonstration of approval.

rotary LaRue, who has the active
management of the assembly is an

continued efforts much of the pop

The popularity, public interest in

The Chautauqua association is
the outgrowth of an assembly meet
ing held on the shore of Spirit
wood lake in July, 1892. Rev. Dr..
May, of Fargo, was chosen super
intendent and the enterprise was
SO much of a success that a perma-
nent association was organized,
and it was decided to hold annual
assembly meetings. A lively inter-
est was manifested in the move
ment and several different towns
appeared as contestants for the
permanent location. Devils Lake,
through the liberality and .enter-
prise of it's people and the utmost
beauty and attractiveness of the
site offered, secured the prize. The

wooded land with a half a mile
of lake frontage. A gravelly beach
slopes gradually down to the
waters edge, affording excellent
facilities for boating and bathing.
The grounds have been laid out as a
park, and beautified whenever pos
sible. Wide graveled driveways

summers there; people from other
localities are building cottages
there also. The people who COM
prised the Chautauqua during the
past year were people from all
classes, and all classes are bene-
flied. A farmer who came with
his family and spent a week at
Chautauqua during the past season,
says: 1T has been a wonderful
help to my wife and myself; both
of us feel refreshed and en-
couraged, and will return to our
home with renewed interest, ami
nation and determination. The

new desires, to know, to do, to APP

And now just'a word in closing
this chapter. The professional
man, the business man, the trades
man, who would recruit his
strength by a respite from the
usual occupation for a few days or
weeks, will find no other spot
where he will secure so much ben
eft for the time and money spent
as here, Here one finds rest and
recreation, entertainment, knowl-
edge and stimulation for the life
task. Tired mothers will find here
a wonderfully invigorating relax
alton from the cares of home life.

three weeks, the program consist
ing OF lectures, concerts, entertain
ments, schools of instruction. etc,
The best talent obtainable is se-
cured for the music, art and other
departments. An auditorium or
tabernacle seating one thousand
people has been erected and coup
ped with a large stage and other
conveniences. Varying morning,
afternoon and evening programs
are given. Talented lecturers.
from different cities in the United
States are engaged, and in the way
of entertainment there is a variety
enough to suit all tastes. Abund-
ant provision is made for recrea-.
ton. A bicycle track, lawn tennis
court, croquet ground, base ball
diamond, etc. have been fitted up
for the use of visitors. The asso-
citation has also provided numer-
II row boats, which may be rented
for a small extra expense. Conven-
lent bath houses are also provided,
and bathing in the salt waters is a
never ending delight to the visit
ors. Captain Heerman's steam
boats are at the disposal of visitors
and a trip to Fort Totten on the
opposite side of the lake is a treat
which no Chautauqua visitor
should miss. Excursions up and

covers but a very brief period. A
score of years ago the Indians were
the only residents here. 1t was in
1852 that Lieut.. III. NJ. Creel To-
Gated on the site of the present
town. Col. G. $. Uline. w. G.
Harrington and q. $. Moore set
tied here at about the same time,
and the first house was built here
in 1882. Early in the spring of
the same year n number of fami-
lies settled upon lands along the
lake shore and the town Of Creels-
burg vas located there. Early in
the spring of 1888 many new set
tiers located in this vicinity, and
the old townsite was abandoned
for the more favored location of
the present city. The railroad
was extended here from the east
and the first passenger train
reached Devils Lake OH the 4th of
July, 1883. Capt. Herman, an
other of the early settlers, had
built and launched a large steam
boat, and it commenced making
trips across the lake to Fl. Totten
on the same day. The United
States land office was opened in
July and there was a lively influx
of settlers. The growth of Devils
Lake vas very rapid from that
time. A year later it had become
quite a metropolitan city with
numerous fine buildings. A dis
astrous conf1agration nearly wiped
the place out of existence, but the
citizens with indomitable energy
quickly rebuilt the burned portion
better than it was before. Its
growth has been steady and pros
erou since the great fire. The
place was organized as a village in
1884, and the city was incorpor-
ated in 1887. with Hon. III. G.
Hansbrough as it's first mayor.
Succeeding mayors have been A.
O. Whipple, Clark w. Kelly and
the present incumbent, Ole
Serumgard.
