THE TENNIS TOURNAMENT.

Larned was again the central figure
of the International tennis tournament
on tho st. George Cricket Clubs grounds
at hoboken, n. j.. yesterday. His brill
liant victory over Nisbet yesterday had
placed him prominently in the lead of the
American players and he is now listed
with Eaves. the English crack. with q
record of two matches won ana ono lost
Yesterday afternoon he was pitted
against Mahony. who Is rated second
among the players on the other side, and
ono on whom the hopes OF the English
team chiefly rested. Mahony's defeat
leaves the score thus far between the two
teams q tie The American players have
now won three matches and lost three,
while the English representatives have
made a similar record. Yesterday Il. ID.
Wrenn beat Nisbet while q. l.. Wrenn
succumbed to Eaves.
The match between Larned and
Mahoney excited intense interest, and the
greatest enthusiasm prevailed when the
American finally won. Mahony is a tell.
ungainly player but his reach Is mar
volous. and mis- peculiar cross-cut strokes
are something that the home players have
failed to MASTER. He covers every inch
OF tho court and it was only by his capital
l1bbinG that Larred managed to gain
6ho victory. The latter appeared at his
hest yesterday, and Larned Mt his best Is
what might be called tennis genius.
He hammered and drove with vicious
force. and Mahony at times was played

Irrigatioa was extensively prac-

tions began to decay only when the
agricultural population began to
diminish, and when that civiliza-

tice of irrigation tends vastly to
increase the density of the farm

show that one farmer is the basis
