1t is Decided That One Will Not be
Held This Year.
The governing board of the New Ha-
ven Lawn Club association has decided
not to hold the annual New England
tennis tournament this year. The rea-
son for this action is that during the
last few years so few entries have been
received from any but Yale men that
the tournament has practically devolv-
ed into a college tournament. Then,
too, the attendance has been SO small
that 1T did not cover even in small
measure the great expense involved.
The club would have felt bound to hold
the tournament had last years winner
of the cup wished to defend it this year,
but Mr.. Driseoll, the present holder, has
sent word that. he does not intend to
do SO.

A Steamboats, whistle ana Bel,

Three old steamboatmen stood
against the news stand of the st.
Charles Hotel, New Orleans, and
watched the passengers come in from
the late trains. Then they got remi-
niscent and talked river talk
Get an old, musical whistle" said
the leader of the trio, "and your
steamboat will be a success Get q
whistle that the darkies along the riv-
er banks know and like, and they will
stay with you like hypnotized subjects.
There is nothing like low, musical
rumble, that is deep and sweet to the
ear, for catching the good will of the
blacks. l stood around the auction
block when the steamer Pargoud,
which went down at the mouth Of Red
River short time ago, was sold, and
heard President Van Nostrand OF the
New Orleans and Western railroad pay
nearly 5000 for her whistle. That whis.
tie was known by every roustabout on
the lower river. 1t was deep and low
like thunder, but pleasant withal They
liked it, and the whistle was largely re.
sponsible for the success of the boat.
In another minute l heard the auc.
tioneer knock down the bell of the
Pargoud to President Van Nostrand for
the seemingly enormous sum Of about
$500. That sounds big, doesn't it, but
next to the whistle comes the bell

by her bell and whistle, it is death to
