Is q doctor in one of the hospitals Of the Lon
don suburbs; MahOny is gentleman of leisure

left college and is reading law.
AS to personal appearances and character
istcs. both Mahony and Nsbet are tall and
thin. Each is six feet. while Eaves is
inches shorter and years older than the other
pair. He is also much stouter and of much
more phlegmatic temperament. Mahony Is
jolly in disposition. and quite communicative to
Americans, to whom he seems to have taken
fancy. Eayes is rather reserved and quleter'
while Nisbet is full OF dry humor that crops out
even in his matches. Both MahOny and Nlsbet
play with a similar long. low stroke. and each
has a reach that seems almost like the neck OF
a giraffe when he stretches out his arm for a
ball. Both are clever at backhand play, and
Nisbet is famous for his wonderful ability to
volley underhand. Eaves. on the other hand, Is
a natural volleyer and plays more like the
