The annual meeting of the Southern lawn
tennis association will be held the latter part of
the present month. Arrangements will then
be made for holding the spring tournament

as thes place and the latter part Of
May as the time. Tennis players are shaking
the camphor out Of their hannels and prepar-
ing for the coming season. The grounds are
being rolled and put in readiness for playing
a. soon as the weather permits. The courts
maintained last year by the members of the
English legation on the opposite side of
Connecticut avenue for the legation building
will be used again this year. They are
probably the best courts In the city and re-
ceive the personal attention Of Mr. Edwardes.
The British minister encourages the
games by his presence and sometimes
uses the racquet himself, although his weight
places him at q disadvantage in game where
his opponent is one OF the young, active under
secretaries Of the legation.

THE CASE OF JUDGE KINCAID.
He is Suffering From Nervous Prostra-
tion-Tslk Of Placing Him In q Hospital.

The grand jury not having been in session
today no further action was taken in the case
Of Charles E. Kincsid, charged with the kill
ing Of ex-Representative Taulbee. 1t is under
stood, however, that presentment has been
found on which the district attorney will pre-
pare the indictment, and that it will be passed
on by the grand jury early in the week.
Judge Kincaid was looking fairly we'll and in
apparent good spirits this morning, but last
evening suffered from an attack Of nervous
prostration. The frequency Of these attacks
begins to tell on his general health and his
appearance and actions, and cause some ap-
.prehension to his friends. 1t is more than
likely that il the indictment is not presented
early in the week and some arrangement Is not
made for his enlargement on bail that efforts
will be made for having him placed in hospi-
tai under police surveillance.

A FEDERAL ELECTION LAW.
Provisions Of Mr.. Lodges Bill Introduced
in the House Today.

Representative Lodge introduced his much
talked-of federal election bill in the House to-
day. The bill is a combination Of the Aus
tralian system with federal control Of cleo
tons.
The Australian system, as in force in Massa-
chusetts, is adapted and applied to the whole
country in all congressional and presidential
elections. Each polling place is put in charge
OF six judges or supervisors, three representing
each political party. Voters who can
not read and write, and consequently
cannot mark their own tickets, may have the
tickets marked for them by one of the super
visors, in the presence of another represent
ing the opposite party.
Primarily the elections are in control Of the
states wherein they are held, but upon the pc
tition Of five hundred voters in any district the
federal government will assume all the func-
tons OF the state and take absolute control Of
the polls under the same regulations which sp-
ply to the state control
