TELEPHONE IMPROVEMENTS.
Old Company to Put in New Switch.
board and Conduits.

The Pennsylvania Telephone COM
pany-the old company-proposes to
make extensive improvements in it's
local system during the coming year.
Chief among these is new and mod
ern switchboard. which will do away
with the necessity of subscribers ring
ing when making call. The new
switchboard will be the most modern
in the possession of the Bell people
and will be great improvement on the
present one.
1t is also proposed by the company
to extend its underground conduits a
mile or more during the summer. The
underground line extending from the
exchange to the corner of West Lacka-
wanna and Main avenues is to be eX-
tended down Main avenue to Jackson
street. Extensions will also be made
on Moir court. between Olive and Glib
son Streets Forest court, between Lin
den and Vine streets, and Linden street,
Kressler court. This will mean the
buryng of hundreds of overhead wires
When the work is completed the COM
pany will have over seven miles of
underground duets, carrying twenty
five miles of cables, each containing 100
pairs of wires.
James l.. Gaynor, of Harrisburg, for
merly of this city, who Is the COM
pany's new superintendent of lines and
equipment Is now in the city working
on the plans for these improvements.

| testing teams will be the Arlingtons
and independents. and u lively and
| close contest is expected.
The Arlingtons, of which William
Meister is captain, are at present in the
lead, and even if they should lose all
three games. they cannot be headed off.
The remaining teams stand as follows
Franklins, Beckers, South Scranton,
Canbrians.
The weather has now become far too
! warm for match bowling, and although
there will continue to be plenty of indi-
vidual rolling during the summer, there
Will be no more league work until au-
tumn. Tonight's games will complete a
season which has been eventful in the
history of the games sudden and
rocket-like popularity in this city
MANY BOWLING ALLEYS.
Bowling alleys have sprung up
throughout the central city and sub
urbs, as though by magic, and whereas
three years ago bowling leagues were
merely idle fantasies of the old fellows
who used to do their rolling on the
green now there are so many city, club
and county bowling tournaments on
during the winter, that there's never a
night when enthusiastic crowds are
not cheering their favOrites on to vic
tory.
The city has maintained its reputa-
ton as a producer of good athletes in
this branch, as we'll as all others. and
proportionately as many good bowers
may be found in Scranton as any city
in the country. There are a. number of
exceptionally crackeriack tenpins art
lists who can give the bowling leaders
of the country a hard run for their
money.
William Hopkins, captain of the
BackuS team. made the seasons record
in his splendid average of over POI, for
thirty games on the Hampe alleys
This is fast rolling, and would come
pretty near winning first prize in any
tournament, no matter how fast or
how many were the participants in it.
NO 800 SCORES HERE.
1t is strange fact that, despite the
enormous number of games, either
match or individual. which have been
bowled here, a 300 score has never been
chalked up on the scoring slate. 1t is
true that 300 scores aren't very plenti-
full, but still they have been already
made in the majority of cities where
bowling is popular.
The high score record of Scranton is
still held by Charles Fowler. of the
Green Ridge Wheemen, who made 2SS
on the Elk alleys, a couple of years
ago. Effort after effort has been made
to break this. but it still remains as
the goal, towards which the knights of
the pin doughtily press forward.

SPECIAL MEETING TONIGHT.
Call Issued for Session of High and
Training School Committee.

A special meeting of the High and
Training school conn. 'ttee Of the board
of control has been called for 1.30
o'clock this evening. and it is expected
that large amount Of business will be
transacted.
The members will probably discuss
the question as to whether the increase
in the number of pupils at the High
school warrants an increase in the
teaching force there. While Principal
Joslyn has not formally applied for any
extra teachers. still he has signified
that the addition of one more instructor
would be duly appreciated.
A number of applications have been
made for positions at the High school,
and it is likely that the committee will
give the matter serious consideration
tonight.

City of Scranton.

yesterday against the city OF Scranton.

cause of the change of grade of Phelps
street. water was diverted onto his
property and it was damaged to the eN-
tent Of $4,000. He Is represented by At
torneys Balentine & Howell.
Mrs Bridget Walsh, who is repre-
sented by Attorneys /. II. Burns and G.
B. Little, owns IA property at 1913 Penn
avenue, She charges that the city filled
up a natural water course close to her
property, with the result that each
rainstorm throws a large quantity OF
water on her land, which has injured
the walls, rotted the timbers and made
the place uninhabitable for long spells.
She asks damages in the sum of $1,000.
