She feels greatly Improved..- - Mrs. Paul Eills, formerly of Lowell, but now of Hobart, was renewing acquaintances here yesterday. L. . Calkins, who recently returned from Oklahoma, where he proved up on a government claim of 160 acres of land, has gone to Kokomo, Ind., where he has acepted a position in an automobile factory with his brother-in-law.

The uniform manner In which Shine shot the ball down the alley in the opening night of the singles on .'Cox's

bowling was superb and his high total of pins rolled in the three games may

not be beaten. In the first game his count was rather low, but he was better at the finish, rolling a 225 score, giving him a total of 579 pins for the three games. Sturm. finished second, thirty pins behind Shine. Sturm started 'out with

a score of 216 in the first game, but his I

inability to shoot the ball for the head pin in the last two games, together with some hard luck, brought his score down considerable. ' The other f our'coritestants who rolled last night were unable to reach the 500 mark and as a result have no chance for the money. If they want-to get in the money they will have to roll over 500, for tiere are men entered who will beat that mark every time. There are still eight men to roll in the singles, and it may be possible that one of them will beat the high mark, but some excellent bowling is required to do so as the score is a high mark for this neck..of the woods. Fourten dollars is the amount of the prize money to be divided for the winners of first, second and third places in the singles. The local bowlers roll a better and much more consistent game than they did some time ago, which goes to show that the former tournaments conducted on Cox's alleys have done a great deal toward's making good bowlers out of some of the local men. It is probable that some of the other men listed will roll tonight.

than disappoint the spectators the club passed the hat among the members present and satisfied Galvin's sudden

demand.

Rowardennan, Cal., May 12. The Jeffries training camp is in high spirits today because in hia workout yesterday the retired champion showed all the vim his trainers could expect. He was to have resumed the gymnasium grind In the afternoon, but changed his mind after lunch and with several of the attaches of the camp went by automobile to Santa Cruz for a dip in the surf. Besides working well with the gloves.

Jeffries was In a jocular mood and playfully cuffed his seconds around

during the brief periods of rest In boxing the fighter rushed both ArmStrong, and Choynski around at a mer

ry pace, stepping after them furiously

In good imitation of his old-time ag gressiveness. v

After the boxing the big , fellow tried the violent abdominal exercise which he used to reduce his waistline

while traveling with his show. He

sat on a backless chair with his feet

on the rungs of another and leaned

back until his head touched the floor, then arose rapidly to a sitting position. ( Jeffries claims that the practice of this exercise for the first time since he left the road accounted for his poor boding last Monday. He said that Just before putting on the gloves Monday he worked at the exercise for ten minutes in his dressing room and when he was ready to box his stomach was so sore that he could not move without pain. Before Jeffries left for Santa Cruz he and Sam Berger engaged in a conference which caused some speculation. Later Berger admitted the list of eastern eligibles for referee had been cut down considerably. Aside from the list of California candidates for the posi

tion, Berger is now willing to accepu

1 three . easterners Buck Cornelius of

J Pittsburg. Charlie White of New York

and Otto Floto of Denver. Mrs. Jeffries is recovering rapidly. She paid, her second visit to the gymnasium today.

New Tork, May 12. In a thrilling finish Adrian, a bay colt belonging to G. W. Berry, captured the Elmhuvst stakes yesterday afternoon from Agawam. The two runners flew across the line in such close quarters that It was impossible to call the winner until the numbers went up. The backers of Agawam were greatly disappointed, for they were confident that the Wilson youngster had his nose in front at the wire. The imperceptible distance that separated Agawam from getting the verdict cost a bunch of "wise" players a lot of coin. Agawam was well played, being backed from 6 to 4, despite a heavy play on Frank Mullens, the 3 to 2 favorite.

New Orleans, La., May 12. Racing will not be established ' in Louisiana at this session of the legislature. Governor Sanders announced today'that he would veto any measure repealing tha Locke law.

It was Rube Marquard's turn on the chopping block yesterday and the cleaver fell in the fifth. Three singles, a double one pass and a sacrifice clamped the lid on McGraw's $11,000 beaut, and the Cubs, playing brilliantly behind "Caw" Kroh, carried the Bolivar slde-wheeler to victory in his maiden effort, 4 to 3. Incidentally the West Siders' pastiming sans the P. L. hung the third straight cabbage of the series on the Broadway clan. Steady, unavailing club swinging in the Cub ranks during the first three rounds paved the way to Rube's hardboiled finish, and the beginning of the end hove in sight.when "Ginger" Beau, mont slammed a four-sack wallop into the right field bleachers to start the fourth. What happened (o the lanky dauber with the pastoral cognomen when the heavy artillery cut loose in the fifth brought alligator tears to Muggsy's lamps. It also brought Mr. Prucke pirouetting across the campus as the ready rescuer. Those fifth-inning landslides are getting to be the daily thriller on the West Side. "Matty" was sent for a joy ride on the easy-goipg bumpers in the same session of Tuesday's melee, and it was only right and proper that Captain Evers and his hearties should hand the Rube, a bit of the rough stuff when he emerged for the mystic period.

RAIN STOPS EAGER SOX

Second Battle With Washington Is Postponed to a Later Date.

"Washington, May 12. Too much moisture prevented the White Sox from winning another game, yesterday. The Scheduled contest with the Senators had to be postponed until some later date because o" rain that came down in showers during the morning and-after-noon. Manager J. McAIeer took a squint at the lowering clouds shortly after the noon hour and decided that he could save his athletes another humiliation such as they suffered Tuesday with a good excuse, and s'o called off the pastime. It gave the visitors a chance to view the unveiling of the Kosicuszko and Pulaski monumen-ts, one of which took place a half block from the Sox hotel. Jimmy Block was a proud citizen during the performance and acted as interpreter for some of his companions, thus helping to pass the afternoon for the disappointed ball tossers. James made frequent trips from the place of ceremony back to the hotel to tell the other plasers what was taking place and what it all meant.
