A TRIANGULAR TOURNAMENT.
Mr.. Ewing Defeats Mr.. HIoorhead in Three
Close Sets 1T Tennis.

Mr. Ewing Defeats nIr. iIoorIead in Three
Close Sets 1t Tennis.
A start was made yesterday afternoon in
triangular tennis tournament between
Messrs. Moorhead, Coster and Ewing at the
Pittsburg Tennis Club courts. But
one match was played, but it was so close
that it was interesting enough to occupy the
attention of everybody while it lasted. Mr..
Mr.. g. W. B. Moorhead went up before
MI. Thomas Ewing, who, DESPITE his foot
ball, has not lost bis experience with the
racquet.
Ewing took the first set &C. Then Moor
head played hard game, and won the sec
ond set 6-3. The deciding set was very
close and intensely exciting at times. On
one occasion Moorhead had Ewing beaten
if he had kept up his gait. Then, when
Ewing had six games and Moorhead
five. the latter was within one
point of tieing the score, but
Ewing braced up and won the game and
set, 10. Mr.. Coster will play with both
Mr.. Ewing and Nr. Moorhead next week,
and the winner in the finals will take
fancy silver-backed razor as prize. There
is some talk of getting up large tourna-
ment for Thanksgiving Day provided the
weather holds favorable.

Harrisburg one each, and thus the singular
apathy toward the association could be
enumerated
The movement for n superior and more
elevated condition of music i'll the Dubit"
schools, which was extensively talked over,
SHOULD be received sympatheticHlly by all
sensible musicians. But, let it be reBieln-
bered. that the teachers should often be
better qualified; for, an inferior example
will always create an inferior result! 1ho
public school teachers have frequently little
EnOwlege beyond what they exemDliiy In
their daily duties. and that is not sufficiently
insniring to a2i'Rte or arouse musical senti-
ment of n healthy order. Now that the
essay OF Dir. kurzcHknlbe j. published. and
can also be obiained in pamphlet fcrm (by
Wolsieffer, PhiladelphiI) some gooc snould
grow ont of the agitation that tends to BEN
cficial results.
In accordance with tle resolutions passed
mt the business meeting held December 81,
the,yotes of thanks were promptly conveyed
to all persons TO whom they hau been ex-
tended IL would be well to add that tho
generosity OF 4lr. Andrew Carnegie and
Councils of Allegheny City for tho Tree use
or Carnegie Hall vas very literally ap-
plarded.
The financial condition of the association
WIS vastly improved Dy these acts and we
may hope that the example set will have an
advantageous effect wherever the associa-
tioH may chance to locate its meetings in
the future.
1t may be wcllso keep in mind the poss-
sible advisability OF holding biennial in
stead OF annual meetings. Those familiar
with the finances of the as5ocia tion are COM
potent to foresee that the present resources
are fasl weakening, and that nothing but an
increased membership can overcome the
strain upon the same channels for SUPPLY,
which are now CHIEFLY through the music
trades

the GYMS will meet the High School team.
The game will start at 1890 in the morning,
and judging from the work OF both teams it

of the Gyms did good work yester-
day and oueht to win, but the
High Schools play an aggressive
game, and the result may be other than is
expected. The Gyms team will be as fol-

The clubhouse which. 1t is said, will be pro-
vided by the committee in the course OF
couple of weeks. The lack of a headquar-
ters has been the one great drawback OF the
association, and the time has been reached
when it has become imperative that accom-
modations should be provided. The menl-
bership of the association has within the
last season increased until there are to be
found in the ranks all kinds of talent. 10
hold the people together something more
than bare field must be provided. and the
more commodious the quarters the greater
interest will be sustained. The committee
promises that the clubhouse will be pro.
vi6ed, and it is stated that action would
have been taken some time since but tor the
TACT that there has been difficulty in OBJ
hoped that the delay is over, for it is time
that winter classes be started and pro-
grammes arranged for winter entertain
ments.
The exceptionally fine weather of the
past week has put new life into the tennis
players. The frosts of fortnight ago had
deadencd the courts and the balls, but en-
thusiasts never stopped, and last week they
began to think there was time for another
tournament, at least the Pittsburg Tennis
Club members thought so, and yesterday
witnessed triangular tourney between
Messrs. Ewing. Coster and Moorhead and
others, each contestant playing every other
one. The prize offered was an elegant sill
yer handled razor, and it was not strange
that the affair created more than the ordi-
nary amount of interest. An account of
the play will be found elsewhere in this
issue.
The prospects for next season look
brighter, and it is almost an assured thing
that there will be at least ten or dozen
open tournaments, besides numerous club
affairs in this city, to say nothing of the
Journeys in the surrounding towns. The
Pittsburg Tennis Club will open the season
with an open tourney, followed immedi-
ately by an open ladies' tourney. The
Pittsburg Athletic Club (formerly the East
End GYMS, will hold an open tourney in
June, and the Oakland Terrace Tennis
Club will follow suit. The a. A. A. in
tends to follow in the same line, and there
will be handicap Journeys, junior Journeys,
club Journeys and other affairs, besides in
vitation Journeys, at which the champions
of the United States will be asked to take
part. The pittsburg Tennis Club intends
to offer more valuable prizes than ever, so
as to make its Journeys much more attract
i've to the best players, and by the time the
season opens it will be in good shape to
keep ten or dozen courts going all the
time. HORACE j. HILL.
