CORNER 7TH & D. G & SON, TROPHYFORBOWLERS The Star's Offer Reawakens Interest Among the donee will place on a} ACTION REGARDING PROFESSIONALS Committee Appointed by the New York Yacht Club. SPORTSINGENERAL The first ser‘es of games between the teams representing the District Amateur Bowling League will be opened tonight on the alleys of the Y. M. C. C. of Gonzaga College, who will play the Carroll Institute team. The league, while small in representation of clubs (on account of so few having regu- lation alleys), should prove to be the most interesting and close season since its or- ganization. The Evening Star's offer of a suitable trophy to the winning team has reanimated the players, and at each headquarters this phrase can be heard: “We are out for the trophy and first place.’ The clubs, from present prospects, will be well matched—the Y. M. C. C, having a team average of 161; W. A. C., 158, and the Cc. 1, 156. The make-up of the teams will be the same as last year with a few ex- ceptions. The Y. M. C. C. will be represented by J. A. Hill, J. J. O'Connor, B. A. Lehmann, T. P. Kennelly, M. A. Gorman, J. R. Lansdale and R. A. Lehmann. Cc. I—T. Rice, B. Locroft, C. Locroft, Hur- ley, Armstrong, Schulte'ss and Downey. President Van Reuth cordially invites those who like the sport to attend the open- ing games tonight. DEFINING PROFESSIONALISM. Action Taken by the Amateur Ath- letic Union, The annual meeting of the Amateur Ath- letic Union of the United States, which has just been held in New York, adopted strin- gent resolutions to govern the relation of amateurs to professionals, and which will create a stir In athletic circles. The legislation passed, in detail, was: That no amateur may race for a purse as a testl- monial without becoming !neligible; that no amateur base ball team may play against a professional team, or maintain a profes- sional battery; that no foot ball team may have a professional coach play with it; that the maintenance of training tables by clubs should be abolished, and that the training and traveling expenses should not be al- lowed; also, that an athlete who has no visible means of support is not an amateur. Hickok, the Yale hammer and weight thrower, who was suspended for competing in unregistered games, was declared still in- eligible, and he must return his medals. Cc. W. Stage, the Cleveland sprinter, who has been an umpire of the National Base Ball League, was declared to be a profes- sional. The Atlantic Association, which includes the District of Columbia, was represented by H. McMillan of the A. C. S. N. J.; J. W. Kelly of HE Aare BAe and Dr. B. Merrill Hopkinson of the B. A. C.

The attendance at the basket ball game last evening in the gymnasium of the Wash- ington Athletic Club was the largest of the season. The contesting teams were the W. A. C. and Carroll Institute teams, and the game was closely contested and interesting, although the score stood 8 to 2 in favor of the C. I. aggregation. Goals were made by Daly (4), Mangan (2), Hughes (2), Sanderson and Mullen (1). DUNRAVEN WILLING TO COME. The New York Yacht Club Consider- ing His Charges. At the New York Yacht Club meeting held last night to take action concerning the charges made by Lord Dunraven a vigorous refutation of the Englishman’s statements, written by Mr. C. Oliver Iselin, head of the Defender syndicate, was read; also, a letter from H. Maitland Kersey, conveying an offer from Lord Dunraven to come to this country for an investiga- tion. which was a complete surpris2. Charge of the whole matter was delegated to a committee of three gentlemen—J. Pier- pont Morgan; William C. Whitney, ex- Secretary of the Navy, and George L. Rives. Mr. Iselin’s letter says in part: “Lord Dunraven makes the charge that, after having been measured for the cup races in September last, the Defender was surreptitiously loaded so as to sink her four inches deeper in the water; that she sailed in that condition on the first day’s race, and that immediately after that race the ballast so loaded was secretly removed, so that, when measured the next day (Sunday), no discrepancy was found to exist between the two measurements, “Lord Dunraven knew perfectly well that it was a practical Impossibility for such a thing to have been done without it being made known to me. It is impossible that the fourteen tons of ballast necessary to accomplish the result charged could have been put Into her on Friday night and taken out again before Sunday without the fact being known to a large number of wit- nes es. I pe:sonally examined the Defend- er’s hold immediately before the race, and I know the absolute falsity of the Imputa- tion.” Secretary Oddie then read a letter from Mr. H. Maitland Kersey to Commodore Brown, which says: “I have a cable from Lord Dunraven to- day saying that, while he thinks it Is now too late to investigate, if a desire exists among the members of the club to do so, he will come over and place himself at the disposal of the club or its committee. He says he would not be able to get away be- fore the 4th proximo.” Berlo Breaks a Record.

The boys will carry along their pet parrot, “Old Kaintuck.” This interesting bird was presented to the band by Dr. Saedler, an ex-confederate soldier, at Lou- isville last September at the Grand Army encampment. The parrot is a beauty, with rich yellow and blue plumage, the ‘corps colors, and was brought from the Island of Borneo by the donor many years ago. The boys have adopted the bird as a mascot, and will carry him in future parades and pilgrimages. “They hope the new mas- cot wiil conduct himself in a soldierly man- ner and appreciate the importance of hav- ing a good liReness taken, as they propose to send one of the photographs to Dr. Saedler at Louisville. ——— The Young Woman's Christian Home. ‘The board of managers of the Young Wo- man's Christian Home, 311 C street north- west, will give a Thanksgiving tea Friday afternoon from 3 to 6.

MEN ARE WORKED: 100 HARD NOW More Are Needed for the New Warships. VALUE OF THE SERVICE Col. Charles Heywood, commanding the marine corps, in his annual report to the Secretary of the Navy, makes an earnest and urgent appeal for an increase in the en- listed strength of the corps in order to Meet the additional duties imposed upon it by the increase of the navy. “During the past year,” he says, “the number of men allowed the corps has been continuously in service, and it has only been by the most careful and constant watching that the number has not been exceeded, and several times it has become necessary to cease re- cruiting altogether, which is the case at present. It is very easy to obtain the most desirable men, and if appropriation was made for 500 additional men they could be enlisted in a short time. Insufficiency of the Force. “In this connection it again becomes my duty to lay before the department the fol- lowing statement regarding the insuffi- clency of the present strength of the corps, and to urge in the most forcible manner that some action be taken toward increas- ing it at once. In spite of the fact that the corps is up to its authorized allowance, duty on the men is very severe, and nearly everywhere they are on guard every other day, and have but little time for rest or Tecreation, and {t is a matter of surprise to me that there are not more desertions, which I can only account for by the diffi- culty in securing employment outside and the care our recruiting officers exerc'se in the selection of applicants for enlistment. “The rapid strides made toward building the new navy have long since demonstrated the need for additional men to man the ships, which resulted in the authorization of 1,000 seamen by the last Congress, and will doubtless be followed by an equal num- ber when the next Congress convenes, as the vessels nearing completion must have crews, which at present it is not possible to furnish unless other and serviceable ships are put out of commissicn. “The same need for these men for the navy exists in the marine corps, as It is necessary to furnish guards for all these vessels; yet no steps have been taken to- ward providing for them, and at the same time alleviating the hardships which now result from the increased duties the ma- rines are required to perform. Continuous Requests for Men, “Commandants of stations and command- ing officers of ships are continually asking for more marines, which: requests I am un- able to grant from paucity of numbers, and dissatisfaction as well a& a continuation of the hard duty inevitably follows. “The marine corps has time and again demonstrated its usefulness to the country, both ashore and afloat, and that it is econ- omically administered, and even with its reduced numbers it is today an efficient and well-organized body of men, but the limit of human endurance has about been reached, and it will be impossible longer to maintain the presentiduty at the shore stations and on board ships and at the me time furnish guards for the new ves- sels of the navy soon to be completed. “I have repeatedly made requests on the department for an increase of men, but the urgency has increased day by day, and I trust that no longer delay will be coun- tenanced.” Only Needs an Appropriation. Col. Heywood says that a careful study of the subject show the necessity of 1,50 marines on shore for the protection of mil- lions of dollars’ worth of government erty in their charge, a number 300 In excess of the marines now engaged in that duty. In addition to this, {t Is estimated that about 450 more men will be required for the new vessels now under construction. Col. Heywood says that, in his opinion, 500 more men will answer all purposes for the present, and he has accordingly prepared es- timates for that number in the following proportion: Ten sergeants, forty corporal twelve drummers, twelve fifers and 420 pri- vates. He adds that an appropriation is all that is required to provide for these m the legislation for their enroilment already in existence, vised Statutes, whi ver pealed, provides for 3,078 enlisted men. ek this is a matter of greatest taterest to e marine corps at this tir and hopes the department will not a disregard his earnest appeal “for this absvlutely neces- sary increase.” Casualties During the Year. Since his last annual report there have been 801 casualties in the enlisted strength, caused by discharges, desertions, deaths and retirements, and in the same time there have been 804 enlisted and re-enlisted, and on this date the exact number of men allowed the corps is in service. Desertions have been materially reduced during the past year. There are 1,165 men doing duty at the sev- eral shore stations and 985 on board the various vessels in commission. During the progress of tne recent war be- tween China and Japan the commanider-in- chief of our naval force on the Asiatic sta- tion found it necessary for the protection of American interests to detail the marines from the various vessels of his squadron for detached service on shore, particularly at the United States l-gation at Seoul, Corea, where the guards of the differen: ships al- ternated in the duty. The March to Seoul. Special mention is made of the service of Capt. G. F. Elliot, the marine officer of the fleet, and the marines and sailors associated with him in a forced march by night to Seoul, Corea, a distance of thirty-one miles, a portion of which was through submerged rice fields, in eleven hours. “This night march,” says Col. Heywood, “made as it was in so short a time and with so many difficulties to overcome, was a noteworthy achievement and a severe test of the en- durance of all who took part in it.” +2. ____ AN ANNIVERSARY. Centennial of Presbyterianinm Cele- brated at the First Church. There was a large audience assembled in the First Presbyterian Church last evening to participate with the congregation in the observance of the centennial of Presbyter- ianism in the city of Washington, which be- gan yesterday and will be continued several evenings. Rev. Charles L. Thompson, D.D., of the Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church, New York city, delivered the ad- dress of the evening, his subject being “Presbyterianism and the Nation.” Rev. Dr. A. W. Pitzer, pastor of the Cen- tral Presbyterian Church, presided, and on the platform with him were Dr, Sunderland, Dr. Thompson and Rev. Mr. Allen. Dr. Pitzer made a few introductory remarks, and after a prayer, in which he petitioned for a reunion of all the divided interests of Presbyterianism, he introduced Dr. Thomp- son. The speaker dealt particularly with the beginnings of the history of the American colonies, referring to the principles of the Puritans and their colonizing influences, the establishment of free worship and the development of republicanism coincident with that of Presbyterianism. In an able manner he traced the influence of Calvin upon the institutions of this country, elo- quently declaring that free schools, liberty of conscience and democratic principles were ideas for which the American people were indebted to the great reformer. Looking into the future, Dr. Thompson said that the peculiar mission of the next century will be to apply the doctrines of the present century by education, by social and civil reforms, and by the overthrow of intemperance and political tyranny. At the meeting tonight the subject will be “Presbyterians and Education,” and ad- dresses are expected from Chancellor Mc- Cracken of New York and Dr. BE. D. War- field of Pennsylvania. Rey. Dr. Talmage will preside. _—— The Sacngerbund’s Ball, The walls of the National Rifles’ Armory were’ prettily draped last evening In the colors of Germany and the United States, on the oceasion of the opening ball of the season of the Washington Saengerbund. The hall was prettily decorated with flow- d music rendered by a big orchestra ished the inspiration for several hun- dred dancers, who skipped the Hght fan- tastic until long after midnight. There was but one break in the program, and that was when a some supper was served in the big hall down stairs, after which dancing was resumed. Representatives of the best Germ element of local society were out in force and from first to last the evening most enjoyable one. The floor com- *, to whom much credit for success of the occasion was due, was sed of the follow :_F. Altrup, C. Hosch, Kuebel, Anton, Lerch, Charles Mayer, A. Plitt, O. Schilling, R. Schneider and R. C, Tuinman. — The Business Woman’s Club, For the time being the Business Woman's Club rivals a well stocked museum in the collection of rare curios on exhibit. A large crowd filled the rooms, 606 11th street, all day ycsterday and evening. Miss Bangs sang “Pauline” in her sweet, winning way, while Mr. Warren Young delighted his hear- ers with two cate which were im- proved by his evident pleasure in adding to Gthors’ enjoyment. Tonight Miss Anny Werner, a Swedish gymnast, will give an exhibit of light gymnastics in costume. Broke Her Ankle. Mrs. Mary Luce, living near the corner of 2d and B streets southeast, slipped and fell on the porch at her home yesterday and broke her left leg at the ankle. The fracture was reduced by Dr. Hodges.
