in Yesterdays Contests.
The crowd that witnessed the tennis
contests Yesterday at the country clubs

larger than the day before. 1t had the

playing ever done by Grand Rapids am
ateurs. The first contest was between
Charles Mcdowell and j. w. +. Hol-
cOmbe and II was tennis match all the
time. Both were IN good form and
played to win. The serving of each
was excellent and some very lively re-
turns were made. Mcdowell succeeded
III capturing two straight sets, each by
score of Is. The second contest be-
tween Willard NJ. Martndale and
James +. Crosby lacked the exciting
features OF the first contest. Crosby
was in good form and Martindale WAS
out Of practice. He could not handle
Crosby's deceivlng serves and quick re-
turns. The first set was Il love set; but
Marbndale captured one game in the
second set. Score, Go, 6-l. There
IS still room for more spectators on the
grounds and the club extends cordial
invitation to everybody interested in
tennis.

feed pipe that now draws the water
from The filter at Leonard street be
placed up tie river above the soldier 2
lome, the cost OF pipe and laying beng

IL the only practical method, as tins
would insure an adequate supply and

that the water would purify itself be-
