THE HANDBALL COURTS.
Champions j. Harlow and p. 7. DON
nelly Both Sustain Defeat in
Team Matches.

The handball courts were crowded yes
terday, more particularly the San Fran
cisco Court, where every seat in the gall
lery was occupied. Two matches that had
been looked forward to with great interest
attracted the crowd.
The first one was between T. f. Bonnet
and N. Williams and P. 7. Donnelly, the
amateur champion, and G.. Hutchinson.
Bonnet and Donnelly are, as rule, part
ners hence the interest evinced in seeing
which would come out ahead. Donnelly
and Hutchinson won the first two games
with apparent ease and the spectators
came to the conclusion that it would be
one-sided affair, but they were agreeably
disappointed. Bonnet and Williams
played all round them ana won the next
three games in rafting style.
The other match was between ]. Harlo W,
the coast champion. and P. Kelly and R.
Linehan, the overland swiper, and J.
Feeney. Harlow did not appear to be in
his usual form and Linehan and Feeney
won as they liked.
The principal attraction at the Union
Court was e match between J. ]. Feeney
and Terry McManus and R. Linehan and
Professor Lynch. 1t was closely contested
by Feeney and McManus by only one ace.
Next Sunday ]. c. Nealon and T. F. Bon
net will play Llnehan and Feeney, the
''cracker-jacks" of the court.
Following were the games played yester.
