The entry lists for the seventh annual
tourney of the District Duckpin Asso-
citation. to begin week after next at
the Grand Central alleys. are to be
closed up at midnight Saturday. The
1t is an event for which the bowlers
usually wait until the last minute,
George Cox, who has been placed in
charge Of the schedule and classical
ton by President George Isemann is
particularly anxious to get the entries
in as early as possible. The work of
arranging the time for each man to
play and the classification of the play
ers takes a great deal Of time. and If
all wait until q late hour to enter it
throws about four days work into one.
Anybody who has had anything to do
with making up schedules and CLASH
fication lists knows exactly how trying
such tasks are Bowlers ought to make
every effort to ease up the work thus
thrown on the officials Of the associa-
ton by sending their entries in as long
as possible before the closing date.
Prospects for Tourney Good.
President Isemann in talking last
night of the tourney had thsi to say:
IT know from what I have heard
around tho alleys and from prominent
bowlers and from officers of leagues
that the entry list for the tournament
this year will be larger than 1t has ever
been. but, as usual many Of the men
seem to be waiting until the last min
ute to send in their names. That is I'M
fortunate, because it throws 30 much
work on the men who have that par
ticular part of the tournament to at
tend to. There is q great deal of talk
concerning the tournament and a great
many are anxious to know all about
various special features. Especially
does the interest In the part to be de-
voted to the women's bowling seem to
be increasing. More women than have

GOOD BILLIARD BATTLES.
Wallace and Brashears Won in
Three-Cushion Tourney at ROYAL.

In the three-cushion billiard tourney
at the Royal last night Wallace de-
feated yoss in the first game. 35 to %.
and Brashears outpointed Mast. IS to
81. in the second. The winners got
away to good starts and were never
headed. Wallace is playing in good
form at present and appears to be the
logical winner of the tourney unless
something unforeseen turns up.
Tonight Lamson and Hickey are
scheduled for the first game. and Hoeke
and Brashears for the second. This
quartet is very close together in play
ing ability and the breaks" may decide
the winner.

of the frequent explosions in grain
separators in the Big Bend country
OF the northwest, and found that in
the height Of the season these reach
ed from six to ten day, the flame
from such explosions in large num-
her of cases spreading into the sur
rounding grain with destructive re-
suits.
Individual barn fires add enor-
mously to this total. Throughout
most of the country the season OF
thunder storms follows closely upon
that Of harvest, and thousands OF
barns, stored with potential food, go
up in flames each year because OF
lightning. These fires must be classed
as largely preventable, since statis-
tics compiled by the actuarial bureau
Of the national board of fire under
writer's show that Of the total fire
loss from lightning, more than 81
per cent. Is found where lightning
rods are not 'lsed.
The spontaneous combustion OF hay
and grain in POORLY ventilated barns
ia another big factor which might
largely be prevented by proper pre-
cautions.
When to such items are added, the
fires in grain fields from locomotive
SHARKS, and from the matches OF
careless smokers, it may be realized
that a vast amount of foodstuff Is
turned into clouds of smoke, instead
Of human bone and muscle. This in
evitably has its effect upon the price
of the remainder.
Most people depend upon groceries
for their food, and the average
grocery. containing, as 1t does, stocks
Of kerosene and other infiammable
merchandise, is special instance of
fire hazard This is shown by the
great number that are consumed dur
ing each year, and each grocery fire
subtracts definite quantity Of
staples from the national supply.
