SALLY rOLER Is SPEEDY
Only One Other In the ego a Pace Al
Cleveland

Cleveland, O., July 30.-The Grand
Circuit races closed today with several
fine exhibitions Of speed. Sally Toler
was q pronounced favorite in the 2:20
pace, and she did not disappoint her
hackers. She Won in three heats with
ease. proving from the start that she
was TOO fas; for the company she was in.
She and Josephine outfooted all the 9TH
e-s, and in one heat they went under the
wire almost neck and neck, thirty yards
ahead of The field
William Penn had been picked 20 win
the 2:0S trot, and ne went after the race
in great form in the start. taking the
first two heats each in 2:0Sa., but the
brown stallion lacked staying qualities.

Loncwood Ten mis- Tonrnam.u,

Boston, July 30-In the semi-final round
c. the Longwood tennis tournament to-
day, William A. Larned Of Summit. ".
j.. defeated H. A. Nesbit of England. in
three straight sets, proving himself easily
the superior of the foreigner in all poin :
OF the game. Later. Larned disposed of
j. ID. Forest OF Harvard, in the final
round Of the tournament. and tomor-
row will meet r. D. Wrenn for the posses
sion OF the Longwood cup now held by
Wrenn. but in which Larned has al
ready two of the necessary three legs. AT
the same time tomorrow G. L. Wrenn
and Whitman will meet Mahoney and
Nesbit for eastern championship in dou-
hles.
After today's game, IL seems reasonable
- say that the tennis championship OF
this country will stay on this side of the
wattr. In the game today between Larn-
ed and Nesbit the latter managed to keep
Larned al work until the last, making
the third set vantage one. Nesbit today
seemed unable to reach that bri.iancy
OF play which was the feature Of his
match with Eaves on Tuesday.
