Bowling in the Wheeling tournament
went moving along the past week, as
smoothly as creased lightning. Tho
weather was very bad and made walk

ers braved the weather to keep up the
good name of their tournament.
1t is becoming palmer every day that
the success of a tournament don't lie
altogether with the polish on the al
leys, nor the dazzling lights, nor the
situation OF the place of bowling. No.
it's not always that, but it's the ten

players, who carry the banner Of
promptness throughout a tournament

Is due all credit. The standing Of the
ten teams remains the same as the pre-

are now tied with Wheeling for first
place, and the fight between these two
teams for first will be a pretty one,
while the X. K. K. boys will be very
interested spectators. Below will be

UNDER ARCHITECTS PLANS.
Bids Were Il Have Closed Yekte--
day, but Estimates Not Completed
Upon Certain Portions of the
Work-Mr. Franzhcim Thinks the
Cost VIII Fall Within the Price
Limit Fixed.

Bids upon the different work in con-
to be erected in this city were to nave
closed yesterday. Architect Edward B..
Franzheim, who prepared the drawings,
stated last night TO a Register reporter
that all the bids have not yet been re-
ceiyed and that figures cannot be given
u until some day this week. There
Is considerable mystery surrounding
this latest theatre project, and it is
quite evident that the gentlemen who
are interested in the movement are de-
termined that its Success shall not be
jeopardized by premature publication.
The plans call for a very handsome
play house with a basement salon.
There is nothing to indicate the loca-
tion of the theatre. 1t is referred TO on
the plans as the Century Theatre. A
great many rumors are in circulation
as to the identity of the parties inter-
ested in the proposed theatre, 0 OF
which are mere gossip since they are
fatty contradicted. Mr.. Franzheim
stated to a Register reporter that he
could not divulge the plans OF the pro-
jectors now, but promised to do so at
the proper time.
Everything in connection with It Is
moving along nicely" he said, and |
may say that the success of the project
seems assured
rs is not true queried the reporter,
that the building of the theatre will
depend upon its cost falling within a
certain limit?"
Eyes, that is true. 1t has been defin,
itely determined that the theatre will be
erected provided its cost will not ex-
coed a certain sum, which | am not at
liberty to mention. 1t is for this pur-
pose that we have asked for estimates
upon the different work. The bids
which we opened to-day would all seem
to indicate that the building can be
erected at a figure which will mo- ex-
coed the maximum cost as fixed by the
projectors.
A well known scenic artist OF Column
bus, who is now engaged upon the new
Bellaire theatre, was in the city yester-
