THIRD DAY.

Fall Tournament New Haven Lawn
 Club-Gentlemen's Doubles.
 No better tennis weather could be asked for than that which has prevailed for the first three days of the tournament-just cool enough to allow of vigorous work, hardly any wind and the courts in good condition. The new cottage on the grounds proves a great convenience and is being made more useful and attractive by the erection of a large chimney where an open wood fire is to be enjoyed when the chilly November winds begin to blow. The gentlemen went into the doubles yesterday with great zest, some who had been defeated in the singles, in the hope that they might wipe out old scores by win ming in the doubles. As result of it all:
 FIRST ROUND.
 r. Beebe and Hadley beat Bristol and Thacher, 2-6, Gardiner and R. V. Beach beat Hawkes. and w. Kellogg and ". P; Trowbridge, jr, beat Daggett Dana and Hastings beat w. L. and J. H. Bennett, 60. GA.
 Kellogg and ". P. Trowbridge beat Dana and
 Beebe and Hadley vs. Gardiner and Beach; each won 8 set by the score of 7-5, 7-5 The odd set was not played on account of the late hour, but will be to-day, and the winner plays Kellogg and Trowbridge in the final after which comes the contest for the club championship with the present champions, Messrs. Ripley and F. G. Beach.
 The ladies' singles were finished up as far as the final, which will be- played on Satur- day. Some of the matches were very close A set in which the score of 11-9 was required to settle, it being the best in this respect so far in the tournament.

that they acquitted themselves admlra-

and he hit the ball hard. though not
safely. Nash covers a great deal oi
ground. is quick as a flash, handles the
ball cleanly, and throws sharply and
accurately. Numerous commentators
of his work were heard from the spec
tators. Both men are splendid runners
and play with a snap and vim that are
refreshing. In the preliminary play
Johnston showed himself to be a grace
full and sure catch and an unusually
long and accurate thrower.
