During their plav they kept the specta-

hlbitlon OF tennis as has ever been seen on

One rally lasted fully ten minutes and
the ball was sent to and fro at least twenty
times. During the play the men seemed to

air seemed full of rackets and balls.
1t took three sets to decide this contest.
Driscoll taking the first, Bates the second

/ Upon the conclusion of the days pro-

WITH A TOWEL.
Mrs. Marie Conrad Hangs
Herself.
Sickness and Dependency Over Her
Husbands Losses Caused the
Deed.
"My mother has hanged herself; please

"My mother has hanged herself; please
come over to the house."
| So exclaimed little Nellie Conrad about
O'Clock last evening. as she rushed into
the house of Gustav Buergem, a neigh
Dor. When Buergem recovered from his
surprise he accompanied the girl to her
home at 2016 Geary street and found that
Mrs. Marie Conrad had committed suicide
by strangling herself with a towel.
A few minutes previous to this the three
Conrad girls had tried to enter their
mothers bedroom in the rear of the house.
They found the sliding door fastened and
could not open it. One OF the children
called Mrs. White of 2027 Geary street and
the door was forced open. An examna-
ton of the room showed that Mrs. Conrad
had taken a long towel from a roller,
looped one end around her neck and
fastened the other end to the doorknob.
| Then she had let her weight hang on the
towel and her feet had pred the door shut.
| Mrs. White cut down the body and had
| DR., Gard summoned. Upon his arrival
| the physician said that the woman had
| been dead some time.
| The deceased was aged 4S years and the
| wife of DR.. Julius Conrad, a dentist whose
office is on kearny street. She had been
sick for some time and at periods was
somewhat demented. At times she also
worried considerably over losses sustained
by her husband through his interest in
two sailing vessels.
Early yesterday morning gas was found
escaping from the burner in Mrs. Con-
RAIDS room and it is supposed that she had
tried to asphyxiate herself.
There was considerable delay in the re-
moval Of the unfortunate woman's re-
mains, and they did not reach the Morgue
until after 10 O'Clock. It. took Deputy
Jones two hours to convince DR.. Conrad
that it was necessary to turn the body
over to the Coroner.
When questioned about the suicide last
night DR.. Conrad said that physicians had
advised him to send his wife to some pri-
vate asylum or hospital BE is very sorry
that he did not have her removed to some
institution Of the kind, but be did not like
to separate her from the children.
Mrs. Conrad left five daughters, the eld-
est OF whom is married and resides at

more enthusiasm from the spectators.
Both were considered candidates for first
place, and the match was watched with
great interest. They are botn familiar
with each others style of play. SO
1t was only a case OF accuracy.
Both play the chop stroke faster than. any
other players on the coast. Driscoll has a
swift service, which he played very well
in tn-day'S match, scoring many points
by it. DriscolPs volleyng was superb
and he reached many balls that had
almost passed him. Bates played a very
steady game and many were confident he
would win. At times he ELECTED great
deal Of applause by killing short balls.
He did not seem up to his usual form at
the ret, however. and it is owing. o
doubt, to this weakness that he lost. The
last game played was one Of the longest
ever seen on these courts. By actual
count score deuce" was called twenty
one times, and In this game the best play
ing of the match was done. Driscoll
finally won. Score, Go, 4-6, 6-3.
