Preparations for the Coming
Grand Tourney.

Grand Tourney.
Tennis is booming. II is a JOY to- a
lover OF the sport to watch the prac-
tice of the players on the club courts.
Every evening there is a good turn
out of the members upon the courts.
The advent OF Mr.. Taylor. the old
California champion. awakened new
enthusiasm. Mr.. Taylor is out OF form.
Still the old vigor and skill that crown
ed him with the laurels at San Rafael
and Del Monte are very noticeable.
The time for the tournament Is fast
approaching. There will be battle
royal between the two final teams OF
the Beretania and Pacific clubs. II Is
little too early to judge as tn the
superiority OF either team. All the
players are working hard which means
that some gilt-edssd tennis will he

FrightfuI Slaughter of Animals on

Manila. Oct. S.-The Siam, which left

tered two typhoOnS early this week.
One lasted forty hours. Most of the
forage. which was on deck. was swept
overheard all the boats were smashed
and the steamer rolled tremendously
in the trough Of the sea, although the
officers made every effort To bring her
about. The mules were hurled from
side to side and frightfully mangled
and dsemboweled. Their legs ana
necks were broken. and the wretched
animals fell in such confused mass
that the attendants were unable 10
relieve them. In the meantime the
leck lead was washed off, the ship
lighteLed and the rolling increased.
When the storm abIted the injured an.
imals were killed and their carcasses
thrown overheard When the Siam ar
rived here her propeller was high out
Of water and the wrecks of her boats
were hanging from the davits.

The refusal OF some ultra fashionable
London hotels to receive at dinner
guests not arrayed in what Is conven-
tionally known as evening dress"
raises some interesting questions. The
legal issues involved will presently be
determined in court of justice, some
OF the excluded persons having begun
suits on the ground that a licensed
public house is under obligations to en-
terrain any guests who are OF decent
dress and demeanor. There certainly
seems to be moral obligation to the
same effect. 1t is true that the courts
and general opinion sustained a hotel
recently in rejecting guests clad in an
outlandish and offensive manner. But
TO object to those who are merely wear
ing after O'Clock the same clothes
decent and even fashionable-which
they wore before that hour, and who
thus do not conform to an arbitrary
and temporary detail OF fashion. Is to
establish new philosophy OF clothes
which only the author of "Sartor Re-
sartus" could characterize as 1t de-
serves.
