TENNIS AT MINNETONKA.
Some of the Cracks Who Will Com
pete Next Week

The tournament for the championship of
the Northwest opens tomorrow at Lake Min
netonka. Several Chicago players will come
up to compete for the honor. Among these
are Harry Waidner and Carver, who will
play as partners in the doubles Carver was
formerly with Ryerson, champion in doubles.
Slocum and VIII Myers will play together
in doubles, as will George Belden and Hale.
of Minneapolis. Jayne and Cook will play
together. Nicely will come also, but as vet
it is not known who will play with him in the
doubles There will be more entries in the
double tournament at Minnetonka than there
were in the Western, and some fine tennis is
expected. Outside of these entries, Omaha,
st. Louis and other Western and North
western cities will be represented. Prof
Wadsworth, of the University of Chicago,
will probably be among the Chicago entries.
In the event that the tournament comes to
close by Aug. 1 Carr Neel will endeavor to
play the champion in singles in order to de-
fend his title as champion of the Northwest.
Should 1t happen that the tournament lasts
longer than this it will be impossible for
Neel to play the winner, as he will have to
go East to take part in the Norwood in
vitation tournament in Massachusetts,, to
which he and George Wrenn have been ex-
tended an invitation to enter. The MacQuis-
ton brothers have said that they will come to
Minnetonka If possible.

Grant FredericI1's Grounds for Ask
Ing u Divorce

Ing Divorce.
Grant Frederick, locomotive engi-
neer, contracted a matrimonial alliance
IN the spring of 1890, in the town OF
waterloo, State of New York. Yester-
day he filed a complaint asking for a
divorce, in the district court If there
is significance in the name of the York
state town, Mr.. Frederick has suffered
thereby, for according to his own story.
ne met his Waterloo in Name Fred
erlck
In graphic style the complaint details
the "cruel, brutal and inhuman'' treat
ment of the plaintiff by his wife. When
Mr.. Frederick came home tired and
hungry, Mrs Frederick told him to get
his breakfast himself, as she hadn't
time. BY way Of emphasis, Mrs Fred
er1ck would strike her. lord over the
sconce with a clothes stick. Upon a
future occasion when Mr. Frederick re-
turned to his home, tired and hungry.
so he says in his complaint, Mrs Fred
erick gave expression to this heartIess
sentiment: "She hoped that the next
time plaintiff returned, from his work,
he would return in box"
Upon a subsequent occasion Mrs.
Frederick, so the complaint charges,
struck at the plaintiff with butcher
knife, remark1ng as she did so. For
two cents I would kill you" The price
of his life being held so cheap, the
plaintiff by great force" disarmed the
defendant Other threats and assaults
on the part of Mrs. Frederick are al
legged in the complaint.
The couple have three children, a
boy of years, a year old girl and
baby months old Plaintiff asks for
the custody Of the children.
Upon application of Mrs Frederick.
Judge Brill has ordered her husband to
pay SIS counsel fee and to contribute SIS
a week temporary alimony. The court
has likewise ordered Mrs. Frederick to
cease following and annoying Mr.. Fred
erick in his private business.

HENLEY CREW BACK.

NEW YORK, July 25.-Among the passen-
gers on the steamer New York were Bob"
Cook and several of the members of the Yale
Henley crew. Mr.. Cook said: 1--WE have no
excuses to make for defeat, because the
fastest crew in the world won. Leander did
not have the speed we made during the first
half on the course but they knew how to take
advantage of their points. We have learned
great deal during our stay in England, and
am obliged to confess that English oars are
better than ours, but as to the boats, l do not
care to say anything, as that is one of the
things in which we have gained some valuable
information. We were treated royalty and en-
tertained most lavishly by the Englishmen.
The stewards at Henley were all honorable
men, fair and square. Despite our defeat, we
had most enjoyable time and divided the
honors in England with the Ancient and Hon
orahle Artillery men,

Yesterdays yacht race at White Bear
lake was the fastest of the season. The
Alfrida broke the record by about four
minutes The day was fair, with a stiff,
squally, southwest wind. While there
were fewer boats taking part than is
usual, the race was superior in excite
ment and incident. A party of ladies,
among whom was Mrs. WEIGH, the wife
of the Corona's captain, filed the Dell
wood club house, and were interested
in the boats every movement. The AL
frida, winner among the first class
sloops by her sailing, lost the race
on account of foul at Ramaley's buoy.
the race through protest sent in by
DR.. Welch, owner of the Corona, who
claims that the Kathleen on the first
time around between the buoy and CEN
ter; coming up to windward, struck
her on the side, which, according to
yachting rules, is not permissible. The
question will be decided in few days
by the sailing committee. The Corona,
which, by the way, had been equipped
for the race with new sails, is con-
fident of winning. The Alerta, the boat
which won the Taylor cup for last sea-
son and the Island cup once this year,
was beaten by about five minutes.
This was partly owing to the new
rigging, the ropes being much too
large. In trying to lower the peak,
several minutes were lost The mast
of the Lallie B. was broken and she
came in crippled. The second class
sloops had an even race, which was
won by the Falcon. The Advertiser,
which came in second, lost four or five
minutes by a foul Of her jib in the first
time around from center buoy to the
club house The Pastime did not do
her best on account of misf1t jib,
though the wind was favorable.
The May B. owing to her small sail
plan is suited to a wind like yester-
days and sailed a good race, losing
second place by 10 seconds. The prizes
were: Class A. commodore's cup: class
3. pennant; class G. ]. N. Taylor's cup.
The latter, when won for two years,
is the property Of the winner The
Alerta, holding it for last year and
once this season, is liable to secure it.
