COLONIAL FIVE IS IN THE LEAD Bowling Team from Ma wi Makes Score of 2,808, So Far Rolled in the Tournament. DETROIT, Mich.,, March 1.—This was the first blg day of the tenth annual tourna- ment of the American Bowling congress at the Wayne Pavillon. Thirty-two two-man teams, seventy-two individuals and fourteen four-man teams were on the schedule. It was also the first day the out-of-town bowlers predominated, only a few Detroit men being on the list. Among the cities represented were Pitts- burg, Huntington, W. Va.: Cineinnatl, Madison, Wis.; Flint, Mich.; Erfe, Pa.; Winnipeg, Man., and one five from Chicago. Two filve-meh teams—Saratogas and Venice—from distant Manitoba add the Donohues, under the leadership of “Jiggs" Donohue, the former first baseman of the Chicago and Washington American league baseball teams attracted a great deal of at- | tention from the bowling enthuslasts. Al and Tony Schwoegler of Madison, winners of the doubles champion- ship at Pittsburg last year with the unpre- cedented score of 1,504, were the center of interest as they defend their title in one of the early squads. Scering on Third Day. The third day of the congress ended with 2,803 the high mark among the five-men teams, 1,160 the best in the doubles and 630 leading in the singles. The Colonfals of Madison, Wis.,~ were the sensation of the five-men squad. in the second game was the high game of the serles, The high individual game was raised to %7 by Otto Walh of Cleveland in the third game of his singles. G. T. Mowatt and E. Johnson of Detroit took the lead In the doubles. Following are the leading scores: Leo_Kosel, Detrolt, ofl. W. M. Burrell, Detroit, 5%. Arthur Wolgast, Detroit, 513, T. E. Bradley, 'Detrolt, '512. E. Johnson, Detroit, §10. P. E. Todd, Detroit, 505. Now that the fourteen alleys have been | thoroughly broken in by the two squads of five-men teams, It Is expected the scores would begin to rise. The drives have been pronounced uniformly excellent | by bowling critics and it is predicted that new'records will be established. While the political situation has not occupied much time yet, it is apparently Louls will be the favorite In the awarding of the next tournament. It is also thought there is & good chance of most of the prominent officials being re-elected, AMONG THE LOCAL BOWLERS Derby Woolen Mills Take Straight from Ex- celsiors.

Holliday, Sanday Gris- wold of Omaha proudly remarks that he, Griswold, originally gave Holliday the nickname “Bug,” on the second day of the 1888 season, which the celebrated batter was performing with the Des Moines club on the Omaha diamond. If that's the case, how does it happen that Holliday was known universally, as “Bug” throughout the sea- son of 1887, when he was the star stick aftist of the Topeka Western league club, as all old-time Topeka base ball fans can testify? Guess again, Mr. Griswold, guess again.—Topeka Capital Nig Perrin {s running a moving plcture show In Kansas City, where he was once the base ball idol. Nig ran a moving pic- ture show out at Vinton street park for a ;hn;t time last season, but his film finally roke. The Topeka Commercial club has appro- priated $200 to Dick Cooley with which to buy new uniforms for his players. Is this a gratuitous insult, or is Dick out panhandi- ing In these dull times, when pork Is only $ a bite? —— Now we are told that Bill Dwyer, first baseman and manager for Des Moines last season when it won the pennant, has re- fused to sign at the salary named by Owner Higgins, Higgins says that while bis team won the pennant last year, it also lost money for him. Which was not the team's fault, he might add, but that of John F. Higgins, a child in base ball. Hig- fins Is sald to be flirting with Old George Javis for manager. Well.

IF NOT, THEN ZYB AND MAHMOUT Westergaard 1 Anxious to Get the Doctor—Pole and Tark Both Aspire to Wrestle Col- onel Goteh, Manager Gillan of the Auditorium is con- templating another big wrestling match tug-of-war Friday night. 1t Jess should conquer the giant Pole, Mr. Gillan will make once more final effort to induce Dr. Roller to come here and wrestle Westergaard, or It unsuccessful in this, then he will open negotlations for a match between Zbyszko and Yousiff Mah- mout, the Bulgarian Turk. | Westergaard has been anxious for more than a year to get Dr. Roller on the mat with him, but the Dr. Roller, for one rea- | son or another, has falled to make a match with him. Jess declares he could throw Roller and that's the popular view among the fans. The match would be a big one. As to Mahmout and Zbyszko meeting, there is some doubt, for both men are anxious for a go with Gotch, each believ- ing he has some chance of beating the champion. Because of this vagrant am- bition neither forelgner wants to get beat by the other, for that would put him out of it so far as a try with Gotch was con- cerned. As a matter of fact, the men have met and came off a draw in a handicap, or rather Mahmout lost, as he failed to throw Zyb. Both men also have met {Goteh. Mahmout lost to the champlon a | year ago outright, but Zbyszko met him in & handicap, which, of course, means noth- |ing and he wants another chance. But if Mr. Gillan could get these two glants together it would be the greatest match Omaha has had for a long time, Itself, therefore, a great match with such possible outcomes, the Westergaard- Zbysako wrestle ought to draw the biggest house the Auditorfum has had In three years. Both men are clean, fair wrestlers, and there won't be any of the dirty work such as the big Frenchman put up to mar the game. Furthermore, the preliminaries are to be excellent. Blame 1s Placed on Mine Officials Colorado Inspector Finds Loss of Life at Primero Caused by Over- Accumulation of Dust. DENVER, March 1.—Over-accumulation of dust in Room b A 11 of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company’s mine at Primero caused the explosion that resulted in seventy-three deaths, according to the report of Mitie Inspector John D. Jones, delivered to Governor Shafroth today. Had it net been for the over-accumulation of dust, says the report, the explosion would have been confined to room 5, and probably with no fatalities. The officials are found to have been negligent in allowing the dust to accumulate. FIREMEN ON HILL LINES VOTE TO STRIKE Rumor Says that Majority in Faver of Walkout is Over- whelming. MINNEAPOLIS, March 1.—Firemen and enginemen on the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific rallways have completed a strike vote and it 1s rumored they have declared overwhelmingly in favor of walk- ing out Tuesday morning unless the roads grant the demands made last November. The men involved are keeping the result of their vote secret, but outside estimates make it 9% per cent in favor of a strike. Negotiations between the union and the general managers are belng conducted at Chicago and the result may be influenced largely by the vote on the strike question polled on the Chicago lines.

WASHINGTON, March 1L—Reform in primary education In the United States was declared to be necessary by President Taft In an address last night at a banquet of the University elub of Washington. The attention of the president had beon called to the fallures of the applicants for admission to West Point and Annapoils by Representative Champ Clark of Missourl, who In an address to the club stated that the applicants fail on rudimentary sub Jects, “1 agree with the gentleman from Mis- souri,”” sald President Taft, “‘that primary education In this country should be more thorough, and on that subject 1 must say that he s nearer right than he has been for a long time, “I belleve that the ambition of school superintendents throughout the count who have charge of primary and secondary education have led us into a lack of thoroughness that we ought to reform." The president spoke also upon’the value of university men in the affalrs of the government and praised college men who are serving the government at a financial sacrifice because they belleve there Is something more in life than money and luxury. “I belleve we are passing through a pe- riod,” the president sald, in turning to natlonal atfairs, “where we need sane and dition of the public is likely to lead It into hysteria; a period where the public must be brought to sane thinking and com mon sense. 1 do not know of any class of men more charged with that duty than the university men. “It is true that an occasional university man (s over-educated and that he goes be- yond the bolinds of common sense, but the great body of university men, after they have been out of college long enough to learn the way of the world, may be counted upon to reach safe and sane conclusions.” ’Root Combats Hughes’ View of Income Tax Letter from the Senator is Read in Both Houses of the New York Legislature, ALBANY, N. Y., March 1.—Senator Elthu Root's reasons for advocating the proposed income tax amendment and his views on the subject as opposed to those of Gov- ernor Hughes, who has publicly opposed the amendment were presented to the New York legislature Monday in the form of a letter addressed to State Senator Daven- port. Senator Davenport presented the letter to the senate and it was also read in the assembly. The letter in part Is as follows: \ “Since our conversation last month I have given much consideration to the scope and effect of the proposed Income tax amendment to the constitution of the| United States. “The objection made to the amendment is that this will confer upon the national government the power to tax incomes de- rived from bonds Issued by the states or under the authority of the states and will place the borrowing capacity of the state and its governmental agencies at the mercy of the federal taxing power. “I do mot find in.the amendment any such meaning or effect. I do not conslder the amendment in any. degree whatever will enlarge the taxing power of the na- tional government or will have any effect except o relieve the exercise of the taxing power from the requirement that the tax shall be apportioned among the several states.” normal thinking; where the sensitive con- | MANY BILLS ARE NOW I,AW’ Congress Will Break A1l Records Dur- ing Present Session. i MEMBERS WELL UP WITH WORK Amendments of Vital Character Have Gone Through a Other Measures Are on Way—Three Months of Work. | \ { (From a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, March 1.—(Special Tele- gram.)—An examination of the records of the Sixty-first congress will show that in the three months of the present session more has been accomplished, espectally in the house, than in any similar perfod in the last twenty-five years. The present stteion 1s further ahead than (s usual at this perlod, More appropriation bills have been pasi®2 than in any similar time before and roro new legislation of vital character has been enacted into law. The rivers and harbors bill has passed the house. Amendments have passed to the safety appliance act and {to the employers’ labllity act. A bilt to establish a bureau of mines has passed the house, as has the statehood bill admitting New Mexico and Arlgona. According to the house clerks, sixty-five bills of national character have bzcome laws. Although but three months old, the present session bids fair to outstrip all others in the number of bllls passed and in the far-reaching importance of the legisla- tion enacted. Disability Pen 3 Congressman Norrls. was before the invalld pensions committee of the house i last week In support of some modification of Sherwood's bill giving to every old soldier who from mental or physical dis- ability is in need of care $0 per month. If such a blll were passed, in Congressman Norris' opinlon, it would relfeve con I~ of private pension bills, “a conuumm:l‘* devoutely to be wished for." [ It Is utterly out of the question for con- gress to pass anywhere near the number of bills Introduced because of the lack of time and the practice .has therefore grown up of giving each representative in con- gress on an average of three bills during a session. If some such bill as Mr. Norris is In favor of could be put on the statute books there would be general satisfaction all around In Washington, Attorneys Admitted. Upon motion of Representative.
