ALPINES WIN

Leaders in Interstate Bowling
League Drop Two Games,
Race Grows Close.

In the Interstate League games
last night on Kirby's alleys in this
city the Aquehongas, of Tottenville,
won two games and lost none, the
Alpines, of this city, won and lost a
game and the Amieitias, of Pleasant
Plains, lost two games.
The games last night surprisingly
changed the standing in the league
and set the three teams on very
close basis for the leadership. The
games last night were the last to be
rolled in this city. The next games
will be rolled on the Aquehongas' al
leys at Tottenville next Monday night.
This league has only two dates left
on the schedule, one for Tottenville
next Monday and one for the Ami
citias' alleys the following Monday
night, which will wind up the Inter-

rolling off their forfeited games the
Alpines stand good chance for the
lead.

That Quality as WashingtOn's.
(From John H. Finley's THE Ex-
President in the March Century,
All have long known of his (Cleve-
lands) moral courage. His name is
as near synonym for that quality as
Washington was for kindred quail
ity and Lincoln's for another man
virtue And all learned long ago the
rugged traits which companioned his
courage and made him feared and ad-
mired or hated but it is these ten
years that have showed what kind
liness and humor and sympathy and
tenderness even, dwell in that giant
frame.
Those who have read his less seri-
-ous writings, as his fishing and hunt
ing essays, or heard his occasional
addresses, as that in tribute to the
doctor, know what a vein of genuine,
fine, original humor runs through
them all, and they know, too, the
genuine human sympathy that runs
in even richer and deeper vein. The
country was surprised at the emotion
he showed in his tribute to President
Mckinley, but it was only an intima-
tion of that great, generous sympa-
thy which goes out constantly to
those have suffered, and especially to
those who have suffered unjustly, a
sympathy which at the time of his
own great loss caught and understood
the thousands of messages that came
to him and answered them with an
expression of appreciation and graft

tender as ever was written by faith
er. And orthy to be put with this,
and to be kept in English letters, Is

NEGRO PROBLEM TOO

Riddle of the Negro Mr. Baker
himself says:
Before even thinking of a solu-
tion of problem so complex as this
of the negro we require a clear state
ment of the case. 1t is certain that
the masses in the north today, pos
sess no accurate knowledge of condi-
tions in the south. decidedly no SYM
pathy for the whites in solving the
difficulties which confront them, and
no real understanding of the negro.
On the other hand. the south itself is
at sea, not only as TO remedies, but
as to the facts at issue. SO good an
authority as the secretary of the
chamber of commerce at Atlanta said
when recommending the appointment
of commission by the state of Geor-
gia to investigate the negro question;
The southern people are IN tho

cerning the race problem, Yet
they have done and are doing little
