DOMESTIC TOPICS

In the northern part of san Jose county,
California, and tapping over into san Ma
teo county, lies the so-called Big Basn,
a bit of the primative forest. Authori-
ties differ as TO the exact area Of the
tract, but It seems TO be agreed that $3.50
acres Of It, at all events, contain one OF
the finest stretches OF woodland which re-
main in the state. The characteristic
tree is the giant redwood. the Sequoia
sempervirens, but there is also an abund-
ance of yew. pines madrones, and every
other kind of forest tree known IN Cali
fornia- It has been proposed TO convert
the basin into a forest preserve, but at
the beginning Of this month number Of
options which the state had upon $50
acres expired An energetic effort is now
making TO renew negotiations for the pur-
chase OF the land at an average price OF
500 per acre, in the hope Of saving as
state park tract which is interesting
and valuable, not only for the remarkable
timber upon it. but also for the abund-
ance OF water. the wildness and beauty
of the scenery, and the comparative ease
OF access from the well settled portions
of the state.

TWO FOR JOLLY FAT MEN.
Armstrong; Spare Won Second Game
From Y. M. C. A. by One Pin.

The jolly. Fat Mems bowling team Wis
tied the Y. NJ C. A. alleys last night
and came away in better humor than
ever, with two games stuck away in their
great coats.
At the end Of the first game they were
a sorry lot. for they had lost by los pins,
and their stock went down considerably
Twas then they determined to do or die,
and the result shows they did," al
though the heartbreaking finish was
enough to cause these carriers of weight
to die
They won out the second game by one
pin, and it was Armstrong; spare" that
did it and now he is hero. Every man
bowled in the sixties and showed excel
lent team work of the steady order. The
third game they took by sixty-six pins.
Crist. of the visitors, had high average,
with III. Eiker. OF the home team, came
next with 173. He started off with 1S7
and followed it with 1874. and then fell
away to 1873. otherwise his average would
have been a topper. His second game
was clean. without a break, and in it he
corralled the two difficult spares-4-5 and
3-10-amid the applause Of both teams
Crist made a spare of 4-5-7 and Hamilton
performed the feat of landing the same
unusual combination twice

W. A. C. VS.. INFANTRY.
National Basketball League Teams Will
Play Tomorrow Night.

The Washington Athletic Club and
Light Infantry teams are scheduled to
play game tomorrow night in the In
fantry Armory in the National League
series. The w. A. C. has taken hard
practice for this game, and is showing so
much Improvement that Its friends look
for victory over the champions.
In a game last night with the Holy
Name team the Washingtons rolled up a
total of AZ points from field and played a
very fast game in passing. The Holy
Name is a very strong team. and it was
expected that ii would win, but the w.
A. C. developed such strength that the
losers had no chance at any stage.
Hughes, of this team, played star
game. goaling 20 out of the 2S points made
by his side.
The W. A. c. lineup against the In
fantry will be: Richards, right forward;
Chism, left forward Moffitt. centre;
Evans, right back; Demar. left back.
Judging from the splendid showing of
these players against Holy Name they
should keep the Infantry busy tomorrow
night.

ROADS IN BAD SHAPE.
Congress Heights Resident Asks That
Steps Be Taken for Improvement.

Mr.. Joseph Whaler, of Congress
Heights, recently called the attention Of
the District Commissioners 10 the bad
condition Of the county roads in that
vicinity. He states that some Of the high
ways are practically impassable and
thinks that the authorities should take
steps for their permanent Improvement
Mr. Morris Hacker, The Superintendent
of Roads. has reported that the reads re-
ferred 10 have been examined reeently.
and that their condition is known to the
District authorities.
No recommendation for Improvement is
made. it being believed that the only cure
is the drying of the reads by the sun and
winds. Where practicable pools of stand
ing water will be drained. but this Is
all that can be done at the present time.

POTOMAC RIVER DEAD
STILL UNIDENTIFIED
Police Department Unable to
Throw Light on Mystery.
Believed to Have Floated Down With
Flood of Few Days Ago--Both
Bodies Buried,

Nothing has as yet been learned of the
identity of the two bodies discovered
Tuesday floating on the waters of the Po-
tomac near River view. Both have been
buried. after an inquest: at which little
was produced to throw any light on the
mystery or death of either Of the men.
Detectives Miller and Peck have been
assigned to investigate the matter. The
photographer of the Police Department
accompanied them yesterday, when they
made a second trip down the river on the
harbor boat Vigilant.
Elder Man Buried
The elder man. who's Nody was first
discovered, was tulie. some time
Wednesday evening. prior to the arrival
of the local officers. Prince George Coun-
ty (Md.) officials did everything possible
toward Identifying the remains before
they were buried
1t does not appear likely that either Of
the bodies are those Of persons who lived
in this city. The police say that the
bodies fioated down the Potomac with the
recent flood. 1t is possible that they may
have lived in one of the cities or towns
which lie along the shores west of

HEADQUARTERS TO Be
moved TO NEW YORK
Change Optional With Presi-
dent Johnson.
NO TEAM IN GOTHAM YET
That VIII Not Come Until Rext Year
Eastern Club viii Then Be Trans
ferred-Magnates Feel Able to Dictate
to Freedman.

DETROIT, Mich, March 6.-The Ameri-
can League magnateS today voted to leave
the matter of removing the headquarters
of the league from Chicago to New York
entirely optional with Ban Johnson. The
president announced after the session tina:
he would in all probability make the
change as soon after the opening of The
playing season as possible.
While ii appears on the surface that
this would mean the invasion of New
York this season, Mr.. Johnson positively
announced that the American League VIII
wait another year before entering
Gotham.
To Prepare New York.
The present change is made in order to
prepare New York for the American
League. The magnates assert that the
question of making a change in the cir
cult this year was never considered, and
that all we're unanimous in the opinion
that it would be best to wait another
year.
At the close of the coming season two
cities now in the circuit viii be weeded
out. One in the East, either Baltimore
or Washington. will be transferred to New
York. and some club will likely be moved
to Cincinnati.
Cincinnati's Chances.
The chances of the latter city to break
into the circuit depend largely Iron the
way that 50-cent ball is received in De-
troit and Cleveland. and whether Cleve-
land can arrange to play Sunday games
there. The controlling condition is almost
the same in the East. except that the
change VIII positively be made there.
The attitude OF the American League
is that the disrupted National League can
have peace II ii desires it. but that in
any ease the newer organization will have
a club II Nev York. The time has passed
whsE the uzglates consider the Amer
lean the minor league. and feel that they
are nov in q position to dictate terms
not only to Freedman, but to both
branches OF the National League.
Foul Strike Rule Rejected.
The only other business of Importance
at the meeting today was the adoption of
the changes in the rules made at the
buffalo conference, with the exception of
the foul strike rule. which was unani-
mously rejected. The last session was
held this afternoon. and the Inagnates en-
joyed a banquet tonight. rendered by the
