IN THE HANDBALL COURTS
Champion Jones Defeats
Champion Harlow and
George Hutchinson.
A Rattling Game Played at the
Union Court Between Four
Crack Amateurs.

The handball courts were we'll patron
lied yesterday and several exciting games
were witnessed. At the San Francisco
the return match between Champion
Jones of Australia and ]. Harlow, the
coast champion, assisted by George
Hutchinson. On the previous Sunday
Harlow and Hutchinson were the v1ctors,
and they determined to do their level best
to repeat the performance, but they were
disappointed. Each of the five games was
stubbornly contested, but Jones managed
to secure three out of the five.
At the Union court the chief attraction
was a match between ]. Feeney and A.
Pennoyer and R. Lenihan and d. Farrell.
Farrell, when living in the City, was con-
sidered one of the crack players. He is
here on brief visit, and availed himself
of the opportunity to try his hand at toss
ing the ball. He and Lenihan we're de-
feated, but it was evident that Farrell was
out of practice. He has style of his own
in "scooping'' the ball which is very
effective.

two-mile walking match IN the court for a
gold medal and $50 a side between John
Riordan, the handball player, and Edward
Powers of Port Costa.
The event of the day at the Occidental
court was match between T. f. Bonnet
