BROKE THE MARYLAND RECORD.
Excellent Work of the Catholic Club
BOwiera.

fxceIient work OF the Catholic Club
BONlers.
The new bowling team, the Washingtons
went over to Baltimore Saturday night and
played three games with the Catholic Club.
The Baltimoreans won in each contest, the
Washington men playing very disappoint-
ing series of games and losing without Civ
ing the home team very difficult PROPOSE
ton. In fact. the Washingtons played in
anything but star fashion and their
games have frequently been excelled by
every club in the Washington League. STILL
the men were unaccustomed to work to-
gether and had had but a single nights
practice a team.
Next Saturday night the Catholic Club
will come here for return set, and the
Washingtons have sworn vengeance and
will possibly win three games as a stand
off.
The great feature of Saturdays match
was the total made by the Baltmoreans in
the opening game In this event they scored
up over a thousand pins, breaking the
Maryland record. Every man on the team
shared in the good work and 1873 was the
lowest score. Toward the end, when it was
seen that a thousand was possible, and the
visiting team being out of the possibility
of winning, the Washingtons cheered their
opponents in a very generous manner as
they continued to run up the strikes that
eventually resulted in the record-breakins
score
Not one of the Washington players made
an unusual average IN the series. Rodrick
might have stood out prominently IL it
were not for his heart-breaking score in
the middle game. Here he went all to
pieces, missing the easiest Shots and re-
sulting in 112. This string undoubtedly lost
the game, for the Catholic Club had fallen
nightly from their former total and should
have been easily defeated. The last game
had several stages where either side could
win and approaching the close the Wash
ingtons were well up in the bunch. But the
Catholic Club made a magnificent finish
and Won out with good many pins to
spare.
The Catholic team is beyond doubt the
strongest in any eastern city, and 1t Is to
the credit of any team to win from them
so the local boys to be admired for
their pluck in tackling them. But on the
other hand the Washingtons are a fine lot
of bcwlers-the cream of the local field
and much better scores were expected of
them. They have yet an opportunity to re-
deem themselves, and the next series of
games will be played at Simpsons alleys
Saturday night There will be no charge
for admission. and the local bowlers will
have an opportunity TO see some very ex-
cellent playing. The scores follow

Defeat of the st. Elisabeth Base Ball
Team.


The St Elizabeth Base Ball Club was de-
feated Saturday afternoon on the st. Eliza

States marine corps from the marine bar
racks by a score of f21 10. 1t was the
opening game at ST. elizabeth Of the base
ball season, and the attendance of spec
tators was large The team from the bar
racks and a large body of marines were
conveyed to the institution in the asylum
carriages.
The game, which was called about 3
o'clock, was played on the diamond over
looking the river. The St. Elizabeth team
appeared in its new uniform, consisting
of dark gray suits. gray caps and blue
stockings. The rivalry between the teams
was strong, and each side received hearty
encouragement from Its respective support
ers. Both teams started in well. and it
looked as though close contest would re-
suit After the first two innings however,
the home club made C.-as.c-u; w.,d throws
and frmbles, and their team play was
weak. Their outfield played the game well,
making several difficult catches. The. ma

SHELL DODGING.

Frequent mention is made in the dis
patches Of war correspondents Of shell
lodging" and the average reader is at
hrst at a loss to understand the pre-
else meaning of the words. unit, their
constant repetition leads one to believe
that probably 1t is possible to see shells
in their aerial flight and consequently
the soldiers are able to dodge them.
A sergean major of artillery, who has
seen some active service all over the
world. gives us some information about
the true art.
In all his long experience he said he
mad only seen three or four shells &C.
tualy in the air and they came from
the U he himself fired.
He explained that there are few guns
with a somewhat slow muzzle velocity.
and the men firing these can sometimes
catch a glimpse of the shells in theil
flight: but 1t would be impossible for
any man to see a shot coming toward
himself.
Dodging shells is lone by getting under
cover Immediately before a gun Is ac.
tually fired.
For instance" said the sergeant ma
1or. IF were climbing a hill, at the
TOP Of which a gun was directed against

SECRET OF SEX.

Frof. Samuel l.. Schenk, the professed
d~isooverer Of the secret of sex, who was
sensured by the faculty of the University
OF Vienna. of which he is a member, made
the following statement to the World
correspondent today:
Il am the victim Of the envy and
ignorance of the Vienna university pro-
1essor:s, but l lose nothing by their ac-
ton. On the contrary, it sets me free
to pursue my system unfettered by the

mediocrity restraints independent re-
search.
Long before I published anything on
my system I treated numberless women
successfully. and my practice became so
large that I had to revert to the dis
covery to avoid he censure of the uni

Evidently the populists are in the sad
die in Helena, and may make themselves
felt in the forthcoming in this
state. Yesterday, the capital city voted
on municipal ownership Of water and
electric light plants. both measures carry
ing by majorities ranging from 36s to 454
votes. It'seems that opportunity to vim
dictate a party principle brought the pop
exhibited considerable indifference as to
the outcome.
In December an election was held, in.
volving a ten per cent increase OF taxa
ton on all property. Inc when the pro-
position was defeated the city council i'm
mediately ordered another election in
January on a five per cent increase. Be
hevlng that another defeat would imply
another expensive election in February,
and so on, month after month, the heavier
taxpayers seem to have settled down TO
the conclusion that the contemplated
municipal robbery could best be met
lHrOuSn the courts.
Not long since, Helena officially repudi-
ated a bill for the use of water. on the
grounds that the city had exceeded the
limit of Indebtedness and-like any other
pauper-could not be compelled to meet
its obligations. In the lace of this ac-
ton, which was a public confession Of it's
inability to pay its. debts, that city yes
terday voted to increase it's indebtedness
to the extent of s614, 900 dollars for the
purchase Of a water plant, and to expend
whatever may be necessary for a city
lighting plant! It is believed by some
that a big scheme of jobbery is behind the
W propositions. and hat the negotia-
tions which may follow the new order Of
things viii mean abundant rake-oas for
some Of the interested parties-whether
the present water plant of the city is pur-
chased Or a new one contracted for.
These questions, however, are for III
citizens Of the capital city to settle for
themselves. The public is chiefly inter-
ested in the foothold which the populists
have acquired in hat city, and the likeli-
hood hat they will be encouraged to
make a most vigorous campaign, with the
start which they made yesterday through
inducing Helena to try the experiment Of
municipal ownership of public utilities.

70xicH1'S REPUBLICAN, MEETIXC.

This evening at the Auditorium the
republicans will meet in mass meeting
for the purpose of organizing a repub-
lican club, whose object will be to get
the party in shape for the work Of the
campaign in Silver Bow county. The
value of an organization of this char
acter. if gotten together without friction
and with it's membership working har-
moniously for a given object, cannot be
ovelestimated.
There are many who think the move
ment somewhat premature. and it is no
doubt an open question whether action
might not have been delayed to advan-
tage, in consideration Of the peculiar
conditions prevailing at his time. Pos
sibly. action at this M may pre-
cipitate and render acute some little mis-
understandings and disagreements which
delay might serve to entirely eradicate.
There are one or two things, however,
which the mass meeting tonight may
well do, with the assurance that only
good results will ensue. The first is to
acclamation, inviting silver republicans
to unite with them in the effort to re-
deem Montana from the disgrace which
has been brought upon her by the demo-
cratic party. This resolution should also
make it clear that this invitation is given
without reservation, and that the differ
ences which led to the division in the
party were unavoidable, and that both
factions We're actuated by sincere mo-
tives.
Such a resolution, framed in the proper
spirit and passed enthusiastically, will
do more towards paving the way to a
complete Reunion of the two wings than
anything else we know of; and particu-
larly in view of the narrow, selfish and
unreasonable expressions emanating
from a few sore-head republicans who
fear that a unification Of the republican
factions will retire them from promi-
nence.
The second, is an emphatic resolution
~denouncing in unmistakable terms both
wings of the democratic party, for the
infamies of which they are unquestion-
ably guilty. There must be no suspicion
raised tina the republican club is in any,
wise affiliated with, or attached to either
wing OF the organized conspiracy against
the decency. the good name and the
honor and dignity of our state, known as
the democratic party.
