1t was thought the finals of the tourna-
Saturday afternoon, but Host Halman de-
creed otherwise, and on Monday evening
the players were invited to a tournament
at the American house, in which knives
and forks played the most conspicuous
part. Inc most satisfactory feature of
this tournament WAS the fact that no one
was "put OUT in the preIimnaries, nor
yet i'll the first or second round; every
body remained in for the finals.
The table decorations were unique and
appropriate. The long table WAS spread
to represent a tennis court-a floral net
divided the table halfway, and the
court lines were marked with smilax.
From the chandelier over the table
were suspended two tennis rackets,
interviewer with flowers and tied with
broad white satin ribbon. Below the
rackets hung the Halman cup. 1t is
whispered that some young lady had a
hand in the decorations, but to whom
ever the credit belongs, too much can
not be given.

to one host. All but one OF the players
who took part in the tournament were
present, and his place was filled by
Charles ii. Drummey-a member Of the
tennis club who has not yet been initiated
into the Mysteries of the racket.
As for the dinner itself, what can be
said that would do it credit? Proprietor
Cunningham fairly outdid himself
not hing was left undone and nothing
was overdone. This statement applies
to the cooking as well as to all the ar
| rangements OF the dinner. Six courses
were served, and each course but whetted
appetites for succeeding courses until
cigars were passed
Then came the oratory OF the evening.
The Halman cup was presented to E. f.
Parker in a graceful manner by Mr..
Drummey, to which Mr.. Parker as
gracefully responded. Then surprise
was sprung on Host Halman when B. B.
Whitcomb, on behalf of the players in
the tournament, presented the following
resolution, engrossed and framed:
We, the undersigned, members OF the
Ellsworth tennis club, and participants
i'll the special tennis tournament for the
HALMAN CUP
hereby express to |. l.. EIaman our appre-
| ciati of, and thanks for, privileges ex-
tended aud courtesies and hospitality
shown by him.
The resolution was signed by all the
players. Mr.. Halinan responded briefly
to he presentation.

HER PECULIAR PETS.


How . Little Girl Raised a Family a,
Orphan Pigs.
A mother pig died leaving a large
family of pink and white little pigs. All
the hands ON the farm were busy. and
there seemed no way to do but to let the
orphans die from starvation. The other
pigs treated them with the greatest I'M
concern and apparently felt no pity for
them.
But a little girl came running around
the corner of the big red barn, and
when she saw the little pigs and heard
OF their sad plight she said, quite
promptly:
IN adopt 'em," and her father very
willingly gave them to her.
They were all squealing piteously for
their dinner, and at first their little mis-
tress did not know what to do with
them or how to feed them, for they were
much too young to drink out of
trough.
But she soon had a bright idea. She
ran to the house and beseeched her
mother for an old tin teapot which
had long stood on the pantry shelf.
Then she found rubber mouthpiece ex-
actly like those used on a baby's bottle.
This she securely fitted on the spout
of the teapot, which was then filled
with milk. BY this time the little pig
gies were in a pitiful state of hunger.
The little girl ran out and took the |
piggies one by one from the soft |
straw of their box, and they laid hold
of the teapot spout with little grunts
OF satisfaction, and when they had fin
ished their dinner they all curled I'D
and went OFF to sleep. The little girl
always fed the runts-the small, weak
pigs OF the litter-before the others.
and they soon grew large and strong.
In q few weeks the whole family of or
phans would set up a great squealing
every time their mistress appeared,
sometimes following her across the
yard like SO many kittens. Few people
lnow how clean and soft and cunning
'ery little pigs are, and the little girl
greatly enjoyed her family. When they
we're little older she taught them to
at out of the trough, and now she has
he finest litter of pigs anywhere in tho
ownship.-Chicago Record. c

Couldn't XIII This Cat

This is the sort of story some people
tell: The insurance agent was rem owed
up the country to a higher berth; every
thing was arranged for the removal ex-
cept the cat. His wife, not wishing to
take the animal with them, was quite
at loss what to do; she would not give
her away, being afraid the animal
would not have a good home. At last
she decided to have her destroyed.
When the good lady's husband returned
In the evening he fastened brick round
the cats neck and put her into bucket
OF water. When he went to take hes
out next morning to bury her, much to
his surprise the cat was still alive; she
had drunk al 1.-The water and was sitting

The famous injunction issued bv

OF West Virginia to restrain the
right of public assembly and free
speech has been published in full
In many of the newspapers and
turns out to be rather worse than
was originally supposed. 1t is not
an open and candid Injunction, as
had been thought, bu5 legal trap,
using round about phrases and en-
ploying twistings an windinps of
various sorts. The champions of
Judge jackson say nc merely en-
joins Illegal acts but he is himsalf
the Judge of what constitutes an
illegal act. The Incl lent not mere-
~ throws a brilliant light upon
government by injunction but i
shows that the courts are even
more partial than has unlil now
oeen suspected. In every contest
between corporations and the
people, the courts side with the
corporations. Great combinations
OF capital, huge trusts, monopolies
ana, in a word, all our evils are
protected by the judges, who owe
their appointment to sinister in
huence. This assertion would be
hackneyed one if the fact We're
not constantly being brought up
by the decisions of the courts.
Inc people must at once abandon
all hope of impartiality in the
Judges. Our judiciary has become
the bulwark of corporationism-I
