Defeats Pee.

There was an enthusiastic gathering
last night at Edinger's alleys when the
Germania Bowling Club five and the
Bayonne Field Club team game together.
The Germanias had a good chance and
last nights games would have put them
IN velvet, so they started in at a hot
clip to win if it was possible and they
found it possible in the first two games,
but at NO time were they permitted to
loaf. 1t was hard work from the first to
the last ball.
The first game was a rafting exhibit
ton. The teams were going along on a
straight line for the first few games and
they did their best, but neither could gain
a decided advantage n the ninth frame
was finished only a few pins separating
the contestants. The tenth frame was
half over and yet it was anyone's game.
Three pins won for the Germanias.
The second game was a close race and
was won by the Germanias by 20 pins.
Perry and Bodine were not up to their
usual standard and lost the game. Edin-
ger was high with 1853.
The Bayonne five got together in the
last game and put up ar excellent exhi-
bition. They bowled a good steady team
game and won by eleven pins by hard
work. Edinger kept them busy with his
high score of 212. w. Lemkau and Diers
can toss for the responsibility of losing
the game. The scores:-

Il. Barnes rolled 202, but Coffman fell
a"ay badly. The second game was also
won by Herig and Chesterfield. They
bowled a good game and had thirty pins
to spare.
Kearse and R. Duff then ment the
Doolittle team in the second series and
were beaten in the first two games and
therefor lost the s~ereies. Duff was off
in the first game and Krause was off in
the second, so there is nc kick coming.
Barnes made the highest score, 1856.
When the third series started Barnes
and Coffman retired with one victory to
their credit and Herig and Chesterfield
came out against Duff and Kearse. The
former team had a series won and then
Duff and Kearse had a chance to even
matters by getting this series and maxi

by defeating Herig and Chesterfield in
two games straight. Kearse had 24 and
was high in the series and divided honors
with Herig in holding the highest score
of the night. The-scores:-

ADMIRED THE FOURTH
Fair Sex Out in. Force to
Watch the Second Bat
TALON Drill.

Itswould have bden difficult to put many
more people III the Armory last even
ing than crowded in to watch the drill
of the Second Battalion Of the Fourth
Regiment. The damp threatening weather
did not deter the fair sex from turning
out in force to witness the boys in blu
so through the evolutions and form
atoms under Major Joseph II. Bfensinger.
The fair ones of course predominated
Crowded in the boxes on the main floor,
crushed in the balconies and damned in
the passageways and on the stairs hum
dreds of enthusiasts cheered and clapped
for the guardsmen. Occasionally a little
handkerchief could be seen fluttering for
an instant from a seat in the balcony,
and Immediately after one would see a
soldier boy look up and make eyes in
recognition of the salute.
Success was stamped all over the drill
and reception which followed. The
ponderous iron doors of the Armory were
thrown open about half past seven and in
less than a half hour, every seat in the
immense structure was occupied. The
number of persons present would be uh-
derestimatedsif the figures were put below
three thousand. Into every available nook
and corner they were crowded.
Colonel Robert G. Smith, who was re-
quested byi Major B~rensinger to review
the drill, occupied a box with his family
on the northeast side of the building. Sew
eral large American flags were artistically
draped about the box. A few minutes
before nine, almost half an hour after the
assembly was sounded, the drill began.
There were not enough men present IN
Company G to perform the evo1utions so
the members were merged into Companies
e, f and H, which compose the Second
Battalion. The formation was in the
centre. About eighty men. were present.
The review followed and as the boys
passed the Colonel's box they marched
with commendable precision. For about
an hour various formations were given.
Not ~infrequently were the members
cheered.
At the conclusion of the drill the band.
which had been waiting to make things
lively, struck up ar appropriate air. Be-
fore one could count a dozen, ten times
that many couples were out on the fresh
ly waxed floor INDUCING in that popular
pastime, dancing. Before a minute had
passed the vast floor space was filled
with lightly tripping couples. AT least
two hundred were to be seen.
In the intervals between the dances the
boys entertained the visitors in the COM
pany rooms. Lockers were investigated,
pictures admired and frequently some
member would render a selection on the
plano at the request of a fair solicitor.
1t was in the wee sma' hours of the
tired gathering departed.

The three men team tournament of the
Lincoln Bowling Club, which is now in
progress at Woods Hall alleys, is afford
ing considerable pleasure to the members
and friends of that popular organization.
Last night another 8 IS was BOWED.
Team D had an easy time defeating Team
B. Team C took the second game from
Team A by a wide margin. Vandefminde
was high with 1879. Team G won the next
game from Team B by a big majority.
A peculiar feature of these two games
was the fact that every member of Team
C got the same scores in both games. The.
game in which Team D met Team A was
the best Of the series. 1t was a heart dis
ease affair all through and was won by
one pin by Team D. Drexler got 1855 and
Stewart lost the game. Team B won the
fifth game from Team A by over 100 pins.
