MIKE EeAH DEFEATED RYAN.
Local Crack Wins Big Stake From
Long Island Exuarx.

Mike Egan, of this city, the ex-amateur
champion of the A. A. U. yesterday
defeated Paddy Ryan, at the Long
Island court. The match was the result
of much talk by Ryan's admirers as to
his ability and they wagered $3.50 with
Egan that Ryan could defeat him. Egan
saw some easy money and took the mat
ter up. Both men had their admirers
among the large crowd present and aside
from the money bet by the players there
was considerable money on the event be-
tween the outsiders. When Ryan appear
ed he was warmly greeted as was also
Egan. The men started and before long
it was evident that Egan had the best
chance by far. His work was excellent
especially his service. The first game re-
suited in a victory for the Jersey City
player by a score of q to Is.
The second game was an extraordinary
one and delighted the crowd Ryan SEEM
ed to get his gait and played a fast furi-
Gus game. Neither could get a lead that
permitted of rest and both were work
ing hard The house was in an uproar
when both men tided at the 20 point mark
Egan then went in and calmly plawed the
Ryan, 20.
The third game was of little conse-
quence as two of the three game had been
won, but to make sure and for the pur-
pose of giving an exhibition Egan played
just as hard and won by score of
H to 10.
There was no playing at the local court
yesterday because of the death of John
Egan's daughter.

many picked teams to win and some were
right 1t was a sure thing that the best
material available was gotten together py
the clubs that entered. The Jersey city
Club had a crack team and at the be-
ginning many people liked their chances.
The Roseville Athletic Association was
picked by a large number of form play
ers to head the list at the wind up. Ihe
result shows that both opinions We're
worthy the greatest respect. The Rose
villes were on hand with great skill at
all times and the team was fortunate IN
having but few off nights. Their record
is really extraordinary. They have bowled
thirty-nine games against seven teams,
on all kinds of alleys, some of which they

knew nothing Out of the thirty-nine
games they lost but eight. In one game.
they scored 1000 pins and win high score
prize They made one strong effort to
beat these figures and in the attempt
rnada 999 pins. They have rarely fallen
below $50. Thus one may see just what
material this aggregation is composed Of.
When the Jersey City Club opened up
their team was in excellent form and
made friends and admirers by the score.
Their work away from home was par
ticularly fine and worthy commentator.
They have several unfortunate games
that counted against them and while
every one conceded that in such a tour
nanaent the Rosevilles were superior the
showing of the local five would have been
better but for these; circumstances. Two
other teams that created considerable in
terest were those of the Knickerbocker
4. C. and the New York A. c., both of
New York City. Fhse rivalry between
these two clubs is we'll known. They are
constantly at war i'll all branches of sport
different At one time they were tied for
third place. but a victory over an outside
team gave the "KnickS'' the advantage,
and they have held it to date SO that
third prize will go to the quintette wear

are both tied for third place. Both have
won five games out of the twelve rolled

two games lost in excess of the loss of
the Casino. The Elizabeth Club, which

the Park, though they have rolled three
