Useful Holiday Presents for Man and Boy. . Did you read our ad. Sunday and yesterday and this morning? Yes? Then you remember how we hinted of gift things for man and boy. We told of Smoking Jackets and Dressing Gowns, of Neckwear and Suspenders, of Gloves and Um- brellas, in fact, we spoke of everything. A mere mention again today. There’s an interesting spot on our first floor as you enter the door. The cor- ner where Men’s House Coats and Dressing Gowns and kindred other things hold sway.

The Colimbia Athletic Club bowling team materially strengthened its hold upon third pesition in the District» Bowling League last night. They also put themselves in the running for a still higher notch. This was accomplished by defeating the bowlers of the Washington -Athletic Club in three straight games at the Washington Athletic Club. Aside from the second game, which was particularly well played on both sides, tee scores were low and hardly up to the standard. The Washingtons, ‘oughout last season without a change of players, had new faces last night, and of the new comers both Grimsley and Miller show the promise of good material John Dietz has undertaken the manage ment of the teain, and under his genial per sonality it is hoped that they will make better showing.

The Trophy Cup Won From Philadel- phia by the Albany Team. The whist trophy fateh at Philadelphia last Saturday night between the Philadel- phia and Albany whist clubs was won by the Albany four by ‘the ‘score of 24 to 19. The visitors made a sensational start, being in the Iead by ten points-in the first half, but good, steady playing enabled the Quak- ers to creep up and make an &xciting finish, The Philadelphia four made gains of eleven singles and four doubles, while the Albany team pulled off twelve singles, three dou- bles and two triples. The teams were made up as follows: Philadelphia—E- S. Hart, W. H. Watson, W. B. Adamson and J, C. Stinson. Albany—Barrington Lodge, Albert Rath- bone, David Munhifelder and C. F. Snow.

Captain Byrnes and Howard Fisk, two of the “Rough Riders” of Century Cycie Club, left early Sunday on a tandem for salti- more. They made fcst time until within five miles of Baltimore, when the rear tire “blew out.” The riders made but three dis- mounts between the two cities. The first dismount was made after riding twenty-two miies in the saddle. ‘They rode through the long stretch of sand beyond Laurel, nearly eight inches deep, and rode up every hill, Their object was to ride a century under seven hours, which they would have accom- plished had they not met with an accident. — Presents at Beveridge’ Beveridge of 1215 F street is justly cel- ebrated for the richness, beauty and artis- tie excellence of his stock of pottery, porcelain, china, glass, silver ware, bric-a- brac, ete., but never before has he had such a choice assortment of beautiful and useful goods as he now offers to his legion of patrons, His large establishment is beautifully adorned with artistic pottery, exquisite porcelains, sterling silver novel- ties, Dresden lamps with handsome shades and artistic globes, all kinds of glass ware, rich and massive, as well as fragile and Gelicaie, and other things too numerous to mention, which must be seen to be appre- ciated, The display is almost bewildering in {ts loveliness and variety.
