Yesterday was practically the closing
day of the Santa Monica tennis tourna-
ment, and the playing is now finished
with the exception of the handicap
doubles, which will be decided today.
The handicap singles were decided yes
terday, and Lester came out victor. The
ladies' handicap went by default to Mrs.
Woodhouse.
Yesterdays attendance was not up to
that OF some of the previous days,
though in the afternoon there was very
good crowd present. The tournament
has been most decided success, both as
to the quality of the playing and the
financial returns, and the association
has every reason to be proud of the
event.
HANDICAP SINGLES.
The handicap singles were continued
yesterday and were watched with much
interest. In the semi-fnale between
Gilmore and Lillingston some good
playing was done by both players. They
played more carefully than brilliantly,
and very little of the net game was in
dulged in. In the first set Gilmore
made some fine drives, and after consid-
erable play placed his ball on the side
line, winning the game; score, 6-3.
The next set opened up very much
the same as the first, but Lillingston
did much better playing, although Gill
more was playing in his usual steady
manner, and soon won the second score,
Ga.
This left Gilmore and Lester to
play off the final. The handicap COM
mittee put Lester one-half of Is above
the scratch and '(filmore one-half of Is
below the scratch. This would give
Gilmore Is points on each game, but
after defeating Tillingston he asked that
the final be PLAYED on even terms. If
Gilmore had not made the suggestion
he would no doubt have won the handi-
cap singles. Last year Gilmore de-
feated Lester three straight at Redondo.
This game was watched with much in
terest, and good drives were made on
both sides. Lester was placing his best
ball we'll and soon gained the victory,
making him first in the handicap
singles, with Gilmore a close second.
The following is the score:
Preliminary round = Osburne beat
Tufts by default; Hamilton beat Veg
more by default; H. A. Howland beat
Singleton by default; Lester beat Wood

THE KANSAS sTATE ALLIANuE..

For weeks past both Democratic and
Republican papers ell over the country
have been predicting the certain dis
ruptlon Of the Kansas State Alliance In
consequence Of the factlonAl fight that
was declared certain to ensue between the
MeGrath and anti MCGrath elements Of
that body; and during the session Of the
pasA week these papers have all contained
what pnrported to be accurate reports Of
ths long anticipated and much-h0ped-iot
row, By reporters sent to SSlinA for the
purpose OF bringing it TO pass II possible.
The names Of certain parties who weTe
present were day after day associated with
one side or the other Of this imaginary
contest In such way % to be calculated
% excite bitterness between individuals
and leAd, II possible, to personal en-
eurntefs and ordinations. II was de-
signed that these reliable (p) reports sent
out 10 Topeka and Kansas City papers
should get back TO Salina and be read BY
the delegates, when II was expected that
she weeds put into the mouths Of in
alvldaals, and acts said to have BEEN done
by then, would cause the long-Snticlpated
row to matsFlaliza THAI this was the
intent and purpose Of these reports iS
evident from their uniform character.
That there had been an understanding
hatw6an the several reporters just what
kind Of reports should be sent out iS evtS
dent from their uniform correspondence
Had there been no such understanding
and had each composed his story without
ennsultAtion with the others, there would
have been more variation in regard TO
dstaiiM Fortunately for the organization,
thn a ox>sFience, the observation and the
saucp on OF the past two years enabled

An Appeal From Spring Hin. Ms,

SPRING HILL, N. S., Feb. 29.-The mavor
OF Spring Hill has issued an appeal to the
public, cities and towns throughout Canada
and the United States asking for aid in be-
nall OF the widows and children of those
killed in the mine disaster. Something
must be done at once for the relief of the
suffering and destitute. From many fami-
lies all means of support have been
snatched away. To-day there is mourning
In the houses and it is evident suffering
Will ensue unless the response to the appeal
is hearty and prompt
Up to this evening l19 bodies have heen
taken out and it is believed more are in the
mine. Most of the victims were killed nv
the deadly after damp, the position of the
bodies when found showing they were
overcome while running, probably after
the explosion. Subscriptions to the relief
fund are beginning to pour in. Twenty
Dodles were picked up within few feet Of
each other in No. 2 slope.
Mldnight.-The list of dead now number
10. This afternoon a broken hearted
trenchman named Oliver Dupre took from
the morgue the body of his son. His son
James, his other son, ran out to meet his
sorroWfui father and slipped on the ice
and struck his head with such force thar
he was instantly killed
Not one of The men who could probably
throw light upon the cause of the explosion
Is left to tell the tale. Not only are the
coliieries idle but all business in town is at
a standstill.
