NEW YORK. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 7. 1902. Fully two hundred enthusiasts, representing nearly every council In the order. In this borough, witnessed the opening of the Royal Arcanum Bowling League tournament on the Elephant Club alleys last night.

Past Grand Regent W. A. Griffith of New York State was the principal speaker in the opening ceremonies, and his remarks, though brief, dwelt largely on the splendid showing of the past tourneyB in bringing recruits to the order. The speaker called attention to the fact With alleys reronsl ruoted for their bene fit. and many high officials of the order present to spur them on to their best efforts, the bowlers of tho Catholic Benevolent Legion opened the second annual tournament on Rttpport's alleys.

1 and 3 McDonough street, last night, under excellent auspices. The crowd witnessed a splendid Illustration of the remarkable possibilities of the gam right at the start. The Bushwick anr Monta Casslno quints were assigned the honor of opening the competition and the latter quint soon secured a lead of more than one hundred pins. In the last few frames, however, the wicks made a sensational spurt, and won out by the heartbreaking margin of four pins. The Bushwicks did not fare so well against the Magnolias, later in the evening, being defeated by 20 plus.

As the Monte Casslno Herman Ehler, whose efforts in behalf of 6owling in this borough have been surpassed by no individual promoter of the winter sport, chose a happy time for the opening of his new Fulton Palace alleys, at 300 Fulton street. He celebrates his 40th birthday today and last night was the reclpent of double congratulations. The formal opening of his alleys last night was attended by several hundred bowlers, while the floral offering occupied nearly every bit of other available space. The ceremonies were featured by a match between the Sylvans, of which Manager Fred Bienert is a member, and the Invincibles. The conditions were best two out of three and the Sylvans very properly won.

There will be matches during the remainder of the week. The schedule to night will be taken up by two well known Coney Island teams. To morrow night the Howards and Vanderbilts will roll. On Thursday night, the Fifth Avenue Palace quint will oppose the Grand Centrals, and. on Friday, the Bachelor Benedict and Bryant quints are scheduled.

Saturday will be taken up with individual matches. The scores last night follow: FIRST GA.V.E. IVOR LAWSON, THE SALT LAKE CITY CYCLIST, WHO MADE A GOOD BECOBD THIS YEAR ON THE GRAND CIRCUIT. CAPTAIN BOB WRINGE, Who Has Been Selected by Sir Thomas Lipton to Handle Shamrock III. A HANDY CHATJETEUR.

Dr. Griffith referred to the starting of the tournament, nine years ago, 'with only eight councils, enumerated the winners of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle Cup and said that from so small an organization the membership had increased until now there were no less than thirty four councils in the league. President Corrigan of the league made an introductory speech, after which the past grand regent rolled two balls down the alleys and the tournament was on. The feature of the first game, between Empire State and Fulton councils, was the sensational bowling of Captain Eddie Potter of the Empire States. Fulton Council, by steady bowling, had amassed a good lead, while the first four Dr.

He had 104 in the fifth frame and defeat stared his team in the face, when he made his sensational spurt, finishing six strikes in the last three frames for a total of 244, turning apparent defeat into victory by a margin of over 40 pins. The feat was remarkable, considering the fact that it was the opening night and the pins were brand new. Potter, who is one of the most youthful men competing in" the tournament, was roundly applauded for his good work. The remaining two games were easy for the crack Bushwick quint, which has been almost entirely reorganized and contains several star individual rollers.

W. Office Also Has Things to Say. LAUDS ALDERMAN OATMAN, Mr. Betts Says Policy of Mr. Obermayer Was of the "Do Nothing" Type.

R. G. Betts, who is running for office on the independent ticket of the League of American Wheelmen, defends the position of the opposition in the following letter: "Although representing the independent element, which is opposing the re election of the Obermayer administration of the New York division, L. A. I can agree thoroughly with one statement Mr.

Obermayer makes, I. 'that the salvation of the division and of the league itself may depend on the result of the approaching "The chief question at issue Is whether the members of the organization prefer action or inaction, apathy or aggressiveness in short, whether the league shall go backward or forward. The return of Mr. Obermayer to office means that the policy of rest and quiet, inaction and apathy, and loss of influence and membership is indorsed. It will be equivalent to a notice to those members who believe in directly opposite conditions to bow their heads and cease their efforts to restore the organization to the plane of usefulness and Influence which it once occupied.

This is the long and short ot the whole matter. "Mr. Obermayer desires to refute the charge that his administration has done nothing. He asks the question and then proceeds to answer it. This is the evidence produced: "First, that he has spent not more than for printed matter and stationery.

Second, that he has paid current expenses and reduced the debt ot the division from to $2,200. Third, that the division now contains 33 per cent, of the total membership of the league. He also states that he has been empowered to appoint a sidepath committee, but does not record its appointment, and certainly, if appointed, nothing has been heard of its doings. The first "accomplishment" speaks for itself. The second, to my mind, suggests no great magic.

It requires no great skill or ability to receive money with one hand and pay it out with the other. The real extent of the third "accomplishment" in the specification Is artfully concealed by the employment of percentages. It enables Mr. Obermayer to take refuge in the greater inactivity, which prevails In other states, for, as a matter of fact, and while the official records are not at my command, it is my understanding that the New York division under the Obermayer administration has fallen away some 700 or SOO members, or about 25 per cent. In short, Mr.

Obermayer's defense is of the "If we bave done nothing others have done less" variety. Mr. Obermayer also brings to hear a long hard luck story involving the financial lapses of previous administrations. Personally. 1 ao not see that even financial straits prevented activity on his part which would have involved no expenditure of money, but only of time.

He seems possessed of the idea that the financial end ot the organization is everything and that the financial end of his administration is questioned. He may rest quiet on that point. While we believe him to be an inactive, indifferent and non productive official, we know him to be an honorable gentleman. The desire does not exist to now examine the records of the division which he states are open to the members. His word is sufficient that they are straight.

I have known Alderman Joseph Oatman, who is the candidate opposing Mr. Obermayer, for many years and know that no man has been a more willing or enthusiastic worker, or more ready to go down in his pocket to help the cycling cause. The fact is so well known that whenever cyclists desire a favor, and want influence brought to bear, Mr. Oatman Is the man appealed to. That' his worth is appreciated is evidenced by his repeated re election to the presidency of the Associated Cycling Clubs of New York.

Wherever there Is a movement of concern to cyclists there Mr. Oatman Is to be found. Twice during the last year he appeared at Albany to advocate laws affecting their interests. Here In the city he has always been our friend at court, and, when a leader 1 wanted. Mr.

Oatman has been repeatedly called Into service. It was he who organized and carried to a successful issue the recent jubilee parade commemorating the twenty fifth anniversary 01 cycuug. If the election proves that the members prefer the Obermayer brand of activity and effort. It Will Drmg no uuasrm tnese men. They will merely view the decision of the members with regret, and hope that the opening of the administration's eyes which their campaign has caused will result in more benefit to the League of American Wheelmen than has been the case In the past.

MEAD0WBR00K HUNTERS CHASE SLY REYNARD, (Special to the Eagle.) Hempstead, L. October 7 Half a dozen were in the saddle yesterday afternoon to indulge in the sport of chasing the. fox over the hills of Wheatley, but those who were In the run felt amply repaid for their trouble, for it was one of the best of the season and the crisp cool air lent an added zest to the sport. The hunting field was principally on the estate of William C. Whitney and after an eight mile chase the quarry was run to earth.

Frederic Watrous led the field, followed closely by Frederic W. Okie, who recently rode one of Harry Payne Whitney's blue ribbon jumpers at the Mineola Horse Show. To day there will be a drag hunt with the English pack and the field will meet at this place. To morrow the American hounds will again hold the center of the stage, or rather the field, and the meeting place will be Hicksville. CYCLE CLUB TOURNAMENT WILL OPEN NEXT WEEK.

Proctor, an enthusiastic motorist of the metropolis. During one of his rides in the latter part of July he stopped at an inn in Westchester and, alighting, raised the cover over the motor to allow It to cool while he and his companion took luncheon. The inn boasts a large colony of cats, and one of them, seeking a warm place for an afternoon siesta, chose the interior of Mr. Proctor's automobile. Having finished luncheon, Mr.

Proctor and his companion stepped into, the vehicle and started homeward. No sooner had the power been turned on than there came an unearthly howl from the interior of the machine, which was echoed by Mr. Proctor's companion, and caused immediate commotion among the other motorists in the vard. Investigation showed that the cat bad se lecteu a place iuc ixiuiui auu wmei tank, and when the power was applied and the flywheel set in motion the animal had been drawn into the machinery. It took all the gasoline in the tank to clean the machine.

We constantly hear that our thoroughbreds are deteriorating and that the race horse of to day is inferior to his ancestors. This statement is made hv two classes of men; one which has grown too old to see any good In whatever exists, the other a class who only know the older horses by tradition and see everything magnified by the purple distance of time. I might add a third group those who are forever lamenting the "want of class" in our great races, but this amounts merely to an affection of blase and hardly merits notice, as it Is insincere. Comparing the horses of to day with those of thirty or forty years ago, I should say tho superiority was all in favor of the former. In old times horses ran seldom often not more than five or six races a year often less.

The races were over longer distances, but they were specially prepared for them, and as handicaps were few, the best horse had a pretty easy time. Beside, the number of horses was small. The returns of 1S80 showed (140 foals. In lliOO as many as 3,827 were reported to the Jockey Club. A good horse of to day runs from fifteen to thirty races in a season, meeting a large number of competitors, and is asked to concede weight, and Is kept in training fully nine months of the year.

If time is any criterion, there is no comparison between the horses of to day and those of former years. Outing.

The open championship of the United States Golf Association, which is to occur over t.bo Garden City links on Friday and Saturday next, promises to eclipse any event of the kind heretofore held in this country. Ninety three entries have been received, which is the largest on record. The open championship, to which amateurs and professionals are eligible, is of uttermost interest each year, as It gives about the only opportunity for enthusiasts to get a line on the relative merits of the "pros" and amateurs. Nearly all of the stars in the professional field are entered, while in the amateur division are numbered some of the best gentlemen exponents of the ancient Scotch game wielding the club to day. The amateurs who have entered are the former amateur champion, Walter J.

Travis, now said to be in excellent form, who will uphold the honor of the club on whose course the tourney is to take place; C. B. Cory. Oakley Country Club; Charles H. Seeley, Weeburn; James A.

Andrew's; C. B. McDonald. Tuxedo; W. L.

Gunther, Oakland; George T. Brokaw, Princeton, and R. C. Watson, Westbrook. The competition is to be at 72 holes, medal play, half the number being contested each day.

The first pair will tee off at 8 o'clock on Friday morning and the others will be sent away at five minute intervals. It is estimated that all will have driven away before noontime. Amateurs will compete with professionals for the prizes, the former getting the value in plate instead of coin. The $1,000 championship cup will go to the winner for the year. He will also receive $200 in money and a gold medal.

For example, goid, which reflects only 37 per cent, of green light, reflects 75 per cent, of yellow light and 90 per cent, of deep red light. Of all substances polished silver Has the highest renccung power, varying irom 91 to 95 per according to the color of the light. For yellow light various substances have the following percentages of reflecting power: Silver 92.5: nickel, 62. steel, 55.1; gold, "4.7; copper, 59.5: glass mirrors, with silver backings.
