The Severe Drought In Kansas.

Topeka, Kan, Oct. 2S.-The en-
tire state of Kansas is now suffering
from prolonged and unparalleled
drought and all agricultural opera
tons have been greatly retarded
thereby. In the arid belt of western
Kansas no rain has fallen for nearly
six months, while in eastern and CEN
trail Kansas there have been only two
light rains since July. Rainfall was
abundant during the spring and early
summer, and this has left the streams
fairly well supplied with water, so
thatthere has so far been an ample
supply for watering stock, but the
ground is parched and dry and the
farmers are unable to do much plow-
ing OF seeding.
This condition is almost universal,
but is most serious in the western part
of the state. Some seeding has al
ready been done, but the growth of
the plant has been retarded, and the
crop will 60 into the winter with only
slight prospects of maturing.

EXCITING TENNIS GAMES,
Sumner Hardy Whist With
Brilliant Play Against
Strong Odds.
MITCHELL rs A WINNER TOO.
The Second Days Tournament at
San Rafael Was Holly
Contested.

The second day of the tennis tournament
al San Rafael opened we'll, the games from
start to finish being more holly contested
than in previous years. The weather was
favorable for tennis and the scene on the
courts was pretty one.
The flag of the California Club fioated in
the breeze, for had not Whitney, De Long
and Allison upheld the honor of the club?
The games started with Mitchell and d.
Phillips of the Nevada Club of Reno, and
the doctor showed decided improvement
i'll his game. He, however, could not stand
up against the furious serves and drives of
his California opponent, and after very
close match lost with score of 3 to love:
CO, 1913, CO.
Allison and Hardy were the next
combatants. Sumner put up a strong
game and played quite coolly all the time,
winning in straight sets with the score of
6-3, 6-3, 60.
Mitchell then played Byxbee, but Byx-
bee wasn't in it, " not being able to get
game in the first set. To every ones dis
gust, who expected to see Mitchell meet
Hardy, Byxbee won by default, as his OPP
ponent was called away and was not able
to return.
De Long and Whitney were the next to
play, and their match was without doubt
the best that has been played here. They
both volleyed with strength and accuracy,
and each stroke was watched with keen
interest. Whitney took the first two sets
in grand style. De Long took the third
set at 6-3 and the fourth at the same
figure, and excitement ran high when 2
all, all was called in the fifth and final
set Here, however, Whitney began to
fail and threw away several shots that had
been his stronghold in the first two sets.
De Long took advantage of this, and with
good luck on his side, combined with sew
eral excellent shots, took the next three
games, making game, set and match, three
sets to two: 4-6, So, 6-3, 6-3, 6-3.
In the afternoon Bixbee and De Long
played the semi-tinal round, but ByXbee
had hurt his leg in the morning, and failed
entirely to even interest the spectators.
After losing the first two sets Byxbee with
drew and gave the match to De Long by
default. After De Long had rested, the
final match for the gold watch and for the
honor of competing for the championship
commenced, Sumner Hardy serving.
belong had the first set placed to his
credit in fifteen minutes with the score of
6-3. However, Hardy had things his own
way in the next set and won easily, 6-1.
Again he repeated his victory in the third
set, playing even more brilliantly, improv-
ing his driving, which was rather weak in
the first set.
De Long began by taking the first game in
the fourth set, but Hardy followed suit by
brilliant passes and took the second game.
The third game also fell to Hardy but
De Long pulled up bit and took the next
after two fine rallies, ana also the fifth,
driving very well. Hardy followed up his
success by taking the ninth game and
then the tenth, making game, set and
match.
