HORSING NOT ALLOWED.


The utmost fairness characterized
the audiences all through the week.
The home players called forth the
heartiest applause, but a brilliant play
never escaped without generous
hand. The Minneapolis players were
foremost in encouraging this impartial
spirit. On Saturday, when the battle
between Jayne-Cook and Waidner-
Moulding was at it's height, and the
score very close, a little knot of en-
thusiasts so far forgot themselves as
to horse the Chicago team for an
unfortunate play. Fudge Heffel-
finger who was lining some distance
away, called to them to stop, but a
minute later it was repeated. Say,
fellows" called the big football man,
loud enogh to be heard on every side
of the court, won't you stop that sort
of thing? Jayne and Cook don't want
to win this game in any such way as
that. 1t isn't sportsmanlike." The
crowd cheered, and there was no more
'horsing''
An agreement was made yesterday
between the Minneapolis and Chicago
players, whereby the Western tourna-
ment will next year be held at later
date, shortly after the one at Mime
tonka. This year it was held several
weeks ago in Chicago, and not Min
neapolis man was entered. Next year
it will begin about Aug. l, and the win

will go directly to Chicago to win fresh
laurelS.
The Eastern tournament at New
port, begins Aug. u. Carr and Sam
Neel, who hold the Western champion
ship in both singles and doubles, will

enter in singles with the rest, and play
! the tournament through, but they will
not play in doubles until the tourna
ment is decided, when they will play
the winning team for the American
championship.
