EUGENE BOWLERS
ARE VICTORIOUS
Win First Halt Of the
Second Series Of
Games.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 24.-The Eugene
Bowling Team of San Francisco and the
Coliseum team of Los Angeles met to-
night in the second series of games, the
result Of which will determine the coast
championship and the ownership of a $1,000
purse. The games were played on the
Coliseum alleys and the Eugenes took
three out of the five.
The total pins were: Eugenes 4613 Coli
seums 4562, lead of 51 pins for the visit
ors.
The last series of five games will be
played tomorrow night on the same al
leyS.
Stimulated by a large band of local en-
thusiasts, the Coliseum representatives
started off with a steady game, leading
at the finish by 56 pins. McGrath was
the only man going above 200 in this
game, but his team mates were closely
punched around.
For the Eugenes Thorpe had bad luck
and scored only 149.
In the second game the men from the
north walked away from the locals. Leap,
Shave, Eacret and Birdsall made three
strikes each, which gave them the big
lead. The first three named made more
than 200 each, and the total for the Eu-
genes was 1915, the best of the series.
The third was close, neither team bowl
ing up to form. Eacret had a run of hard
luck on splits, did Burke, McGrath
and Simpson. The Eugenes won by eleven
pins.
The fourth game went to the local team
by 25 pins. Griffith was substituted for
McGrath, but failed to help out. Bird
sail fell down badly in this game, while
Shave and Dee bowled well.
The fifth and last game was another
good one for the visitors. Leap making the
best score of the evening with 225, Shave
following with 200. Their total was 9Si
against 946 for the Coliseums. Dysinger
was unfortunate in this game and fell far
below his average. The rest of the team
averaged over 190 Scores:

WONDERFUL WATERFALL
FOUND IN MEXICO
Cascade Discovered With Sheer Drop
of Nine Hundred and
Seventy-Eight Feet.

William p. Durham, a prominent Dem
yer mining man. who with his associates,
Eben Smith and K. II. Reid. is negotiat-
ing for large properties in Mexico, has
returned from a visit to the district. In
addition to a tale of the vast mineral
wealth of the Mexico district, Mr.. Dun
ham also has a story of wonderful wa
terfall in the world. The fall Is known
by the Indian name of Basaseachic, and
is about 10 miles west of the city of Chi
huahua, near the summit of the Sierra
Madre Mountains. The elevation of the
mountain is $500 feet above sea level. The
cascade falls 97S feet.
ut is zone of the most wonderful sights
I have ever seem said Mr.. Dunham.
I'VE went to the top of the falls. We
could see the mass OF water falling down.
but the distance was so great that it
turned to spray before 1t reached the bot
tom, and, though we could see 1t fall
ing, not sound could be heard. At the
time was there a volume of water ten
feet across and about two feet deep was
flowing over the falls. This great work
of nature is twelve miles away from any
beaten trail, and it is probable that few
of the English speaking race have ever
seen 1t. A Mexican told me of it and
conducted me there. One of our party
measured the depth so that this state
ment is authentic. Denver (Colo) Re-

Vital Statistics of Italy.

Professor Sormani has recently dis
cussed Italian vital statistics of the last
forty years. His principal conclusions are
that the birth rate nuctuated between
1894 per 1000 QS76) and S349 QS9S), while
the corresponding death rates were "a 80
0S69) and 81 QS99). The birth has ex-
ceeded the death rate every year. In 1867
the excess was 2.40 and in 1897 it was 1880.
During the years 1929 the population in
creased by 10 900, ,000 Comparing the pc
riods 1925 and 1S9T-99 he concludes that
owing to improved sanitary conditions,
there Is an annual saving of eight lives
in every thousand. At least 100000 people
have been effectively saved from death
and more than 1900, 900 from illness during
the period examined.-New York Sun.

New Faction Will Oppose Old Board
at Regular Election Next Thurs

A bitter battle is being fought in a
quiet way between two leading factions
of the German Benevolent Society, the
leading German organization of the city.
It seems that the present officers and
board of directors now in power have
been acting too independently, and new
faction has sprung up and put ticket
in the field to oppose the old members
at the regular election which will be held
at Union Square Hall next Thursday
night.
The present board of managers has been
in power for number of years, and while
no fault is to be found with it's work a
large number of the sOciety's members

In keeping with their policy of making
Golden Gate Park the peoples play
ground in fact as we'll as in name. the
Beard of Park Commissioners decided at

its attractions.
They have set aside S21 900 with which
to build an artificial lake upon which men
interested in model yachts may race their
tiny crafts. The sheet of water will be
on the north side of the park, near the

There is some talk of building a swim

has not been considered officially by the
commissioners.
