In one OF the most remarkable games
OF the season. and In fact one OF the most
remarkable games ever rolled. the Roger
Williams last evening won the odd string

total OF 1861 TO the latter's 1857.
The Roger Williams also scored single
strings OF f65. 4s3 and $40. while the Provi-
dence quintet put up scores of Sic, 4ss and
ass.
Hall again made a marvellous score and
with 339 was only four pins behind the
worlds record. Hoban and Cahill were
also very much In evidence. the former
with 3e3. and the latter with 3l2. Wallace.
McKinnon. Brophy. Davis and Rudder-
ham also contributed high marks to the
remarkable game.
The Providence team started of the
first string at "a rapid rate and soon forg-
cd TO the front and easily won out with
a score OF SIC TO the Rogers 4G5.
In the second bout one OF the hottest
battles that was ever fought In the New
England league, soon developed and II
was a nip and tuck struggle up TO the
last frame, when the Rogerios made
little squirt and won out by three pins.
This was a heart breaker for the Provf-

were defeated by wide morgin.
There was a large crowd present and
much enthusiasm was manifested. The

MORE EVIDENCE.
Mrs. Taylor Must Secure L TO
Obtain a Divorce.

Judge Douglas today, after hearing the
depositions of witnesses for the petition
er In the divorce case of Myra 7. Taylor
VS.. William J. Taylor. decided to post
pone the case three months In order that
the petitioner should have an opportunity
TO present stronger evidence, II she can.
I'm support OF her charges against her
husband.
Mrs. Taylor accuses her husband OF ex-
treme cruelty and non-support. relying
chiefly on the first named ground.
In her deposition she stated that one
night her husband came home late and
was cross She got up TO light the gas in
her room and he pushed her against a
bureau and she fell down striking an ar
ticle of furniture in falling. which caused
her TO have a hemorrhage OF the lurg.
This hemorrnage, she claimed, weaken
ed her so that she has not been wel
woman since. Her husband. she claimed,
did not properly support her.
Mrs Taylor's mother and brother tes-
tilted the noise of her fall brought them
TO her room and she had to be taken into
her mothers room. Mrs. Taylor's mother
said before this fall her daughter was
strong. healthy girl, but had since been
in very bad health.
Mr.. Taylor was represented by counsel
but did not see ut to introduce any tes-
tirnony. There was no other evidence or
cruelty alleged except the one noted.
Judge Douglas did not think strong
enough case had been made out. He
thought the fall might have been acci-
dental and IL seemed TO his honor that
this was the first quarrel of the parties
and they rushed into a divorce court.
