Interesting Bowling Battles
Last Night.
RECORDS ARE SMASHED
NEW FIGURES HUNG UP By THE
JOLLY FAT MEN.
Big Golf Events-Fine Basket Ball
Baltimores Best at Indoor Base
Ball-New Orleans Races.

Last night was busy one among the
bowlers of the city. Three leagues had out
teams and four contests were pulled or, the
District League having four teams in play.
Although the weather was very cold the
crowds at the different alleys were large
and the enthusiasm displayed at the jolly
Fat Men-Golden Eagle games was almost
unbounded. The Departmental and Railway
Relief League also furnished interesting
contests.
There were two matches In the District
Bowling League last night, one at the Col
den Eagles alleys and one at the Saenger-
bund At the former the jolly Fat Men
Club took three straight games from the
home team, while at the Saengerbund the
home team wiped up t4e visitors Tor three
victories. The victories of the jolly Fat
Men put them in an apparently 1mpreg-
nable position at the top of the league, hav-
ing now won about four-fifths of the games
in which they have played. But the strik-
ing feature OF last nights match was the
wonderful bowling of Crist, who made the
record score of $50 in the second game-by
several pins the best ever made in a
league contest In this city. To accomplish
this he also established new record for
continuous strikes, starting run at the
third frame which lasted through the rest
Of the game. giving him a total of eight
strikes. In the final box he missed one pin
in the second set-up, and scored % in the
NINTH finishing with % in the tenth. He
was rema rkably well supported by Ludwig
and Harlow. both of whom bowled over 200.

the leagues history for a regular match

throughout the evening. and he quit with
the great average of 2lS for the three
games. His big score of 242 in the final
game loses its prominence only on account
of CRISIS total. The entire series of games
was dotted with brilliant individual play.
every man on the Fats having one or more
scores of 200 or better, and during the
evening strikes We're almost continuous.
Campbell of the Eagles was the only man
of his team to reach 200. and he sailed way
beyond that mark, having 243 in the open
ing game.
The first game was the only closely
bowled one of the series. the Eagles getting
within fifteen pins of the winning score.
The other games were clearly the property
Of the visiting five from the outset, though
the home team bowled excellently. The

NEW ORLEANS RACES.
Manshack Won Carnival Stakes in
Dashing Style.

Manshack, the fast little pony bred on
the Texas plains. showed his heels to the
fashionably bred thoroughbreds that start
ed against him yesterday in the carnival
stakes at the New Orleans track and beat
them home easily.
The horsemen from the Lone Star state
backed their representa- alive until they mad
not dollar left, and the odds were less
than even money. They had the greatest
confidence that he would beat Dick Ber-
nard. the most dangerous rival.
This trust was not misplaced. Manshack
went to the front like a whirlwind in the
early stages of the race and, carrying his
opponents along at a merry clip. exhausted
them early. He then came home, as the
Texans said, ION the bit"
After the race the colt was run up to
$1,000 and sold to Durneli & Herr. Capt.
owner of Manshack. claimed Dick Ber-
nard. the Durnell & Herr entry, for s4GS5,
but the stewards denied the claim ON the
ground that Burnbury was not the duly
authorized agent of Parker. Bud Embry
was run up to $1,505 by James Robert son
and bought in.
The owners handicap, at six furlongs,
produced pretty contest between eight
OF the fastest sprinters at the track. St.
Cuthbert was the favorite at 5 to g but he
failed to bring home his hackers money,
He tried to keep up with Seorpio but the
latter made him leg weary, and he stopped.
Just as Scorpio appeared to have the race
at his mercy. LEtrenne. the fast English
mare. came with a rush and made bold
challenge. A poor start and her effort to
make up lost ground proved too serious a
handicap to overcome. and at the finish of
a desperate drive Scorpio was In front by
neck. The time of the raceI. 13 4-J-is

CONSUMPTION
IS CONTAGIOUS

All physicians admit thai consumption is con-
tagious.
As the sputum dries the baelli, or germ poison,
which 1t contains are thrown into the atmosphere,
and as, laden with catarrhal discharges, they are
breathed into weak lungs, these poisons take root
and consumption Is developed. The only way to
prevent this disease is to breathe into the air
pipes or bronchial tubes the vapors Of healing oil
laden with germ-killing remedy No remedy taken
into the stomach has yet cured genuine Con-
sumption.
According to the Worlds Consumption Congress
of Physicians, which met in London a year ago
last July, the only germ killing remedy that has
been successful is the discovered by Professor
Koch Of Berlin, and manufactured under the SUPER
vision OF the German Government and is called
the 'Koch Tubereuiine.'
Although as injection it failed, 1t has been
wonderfully successful when given by the Koch
Inhalation process This process was first intro
duced into this country by DIR. Edward Koch after

the Light Infantry.
The Camden basket ball team, the cham
pion of the United States, defeated the
Washington Light Infantry team last night
by 81 to "a. Although the score was one
sided. the local team played fast and
snappy game. but could not stop the goal
throwing and passing of the visitors. There
was never such team work and accurate
throwing seen here before as that of the
Camdens. The Infantry team seemed to
nave hard luck" last night. as in a num-
Der OF instances they had good chance to
score, but the ball would wabble all over
the rim OF the basket and finally drop to
the floor. The Camdens threw goals from
some of the most difficult positions. and the
whole game seemed to be an easy task for
them. Whenever any one of their players
had the ball they would scatter In the most
advantageous positions and it was a mat
ter OF little work to obtain goal. The In
fantry team lacked team work and continu-
ally fumbled the ball. One Of the largest
gatherings that has ever witnessed local
contest of this sort was present, and there
were also few rooters present for the WIS.,
itors. The lineup was as follows:
