CHAMPIONSHIP
Is Being Contested for Today at
CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, Ill, June 1O.-The annual
contest for the Western intercollegiate
tennis championship opened today on
the courts of the Kenwood Country
Club with an immense attendance of
lovers of the game.
None of the famous cracks who have
won honors in previous years are to be
found on the list of contestants this
year and as consequence the result
of the tournament is a matter of much
speculation.
Chicago, Michigan and Northwest
ern all have good teams, and if previous
records count for anything the chance
OF victory seems to favor one OF these
three universities

UNIVERSAL INSTITUTION,
Col. Barrett Gives His Opinion OF What
the Circus Does to Mankind.

COSMOPOLITAN and democratic, in
the broadcast sense of the term, the cir
Gus man is an universal institution
says Col. S. H. Barrett, general agent
of Adam Forepaugh and Sells Bros.
shows. Continuing, the colonel said:
THAT the circus was the first form OF
public entertainment adopted by the
ancients is a fact that is established by
records of most remote anuqulty'
Wherever man has has in any way
performed feats of skill or strength or
1isnlaved his mastery over the horse,
he has enjoyed himself in at least the
rudimentary forms of the circus. That
is doubtless one Of the reasons why
the circus is so popular. But there IS a
vast difference between puglllsm anQ
other displays of skill and strength. /
sunDose there are boxers who can look
at pugilists understandingly and appre-
ciate the skill with which they attack
and defend, but they are in a vast
minority.
There is one feature of the circus
that has always impressed me, ana
that is the utter democracy OF the
spectators. 1 have noticed it particu-
larly at Washington. A circus is al
ways sure of a big attendance at the
capitol. l have noticed there the for
eign ambassadors and ministers, most
of them of high title as well as rank,
and the greatest of all sttcklers for
etiquette.
by the same token the circus per
former is the most cosmopolitan OF all
entertainers. He visits all countries
and is understood and appreciated be-
cause what he does is known without
spoken speech. 1t may be news to you
to hear that the circus is a hourishing
institution in Europe, Asia, South Am
erica and South Africa. Even far off
Australia and the Islands Of the Pacific
have their circuses.
In our country much is written eV-
cry year about the popularity Of the
circus, and ] am not going to repeat
ANYTHING of that sort now. l Will ven
ture this statement, however. This
country owes much to the circus in the
wav of certain forms of education. The
number of cities in this country that
have geological gardens may be count
ed upon the fingers of one hand With
out the circus and its inevitable accom-
paniment Of wild animals, there would
be no general knowledge Of any save
purely domestic animals. About all
the practical knowledge of ethnology
the great masses of the people have
had has been supplied by the strange
peoples from distant lands exhibited
by the circus All such knowledge is
more or less valuable, and so the circus
is at least that much more than d mere
diversion"

SAFETY IN ELEVATORS.
interesting Address by George l. Alden of
of Worcester.

At the recent 99th semi annual meet
ing of the American Society of Me-
chancial Engineers, an extremely inter-
esting paper on "The plunger elevator"
was read by George 1. Alden of Wor-
cester. Mr.. Alden said;
The plunger is an elevator operated
by a hydraulic power through the med
ium of a piston and: cylinder as long
as the run of the car, this piston sup
porting the car from below and extend
ing into the cylinder which isnsuE
ing into the cylinder, which is sunk in
to the ground. The plunger elevator as
lift or freight elevator, is well known
AS a passenger elevator for short runs
it has been used more or less for some
time, both in this country and in Eu-
rope. 1t has always been characterize
ed as a safe, durable and economical
machine, but it has generally been as
sumed that it had limitations which
prevented it from meeting the require
ments for passenger service, except for
short runs and slow speeds. The sug-
gestion of its use as a high speed pas
senger elevator would until recently
have been regarded as indicating a Sc
riouS miscOnception of its possibilities
Recent experience seems to Indicate
that the plunger elevator as a satisfac-
tory solution of one of the most i'm
portant engineering problems connected
with the special and complicated equip
ment of a modern office building"

of the operating machinery. The plum

A NATIONAL MOVEMENT
Arbitration Board to Look
After All Moulders'
Unions.

The meeting of the Moulders' union
in labor headquarters last evening YVES
trimming with cheerfulness.
A communication from Martin Fox
of Cincinnati, president of the Iron
Moulders' Union of America, was re-
ceived. 1t announced that the meeting
of the arbitration board has been post
poned until June 5. Instead of being a
movement to effect two firms of foun-
ders, the agreement and decision Of
the arbitration board will be a nation
al one, and will affect every Moulders'
union and all members of the Found
ers' association. The board will con-
sist of seven officers and directors of
each organization.
1t has been definitely decided to have
the arbitration board meeting at
Cleveland. O., and no local men will
serve on the board. A campaign against
the three founders who have unofficial
ly declared that they would not recog-
nize the union was outlined.
The local union has 5000, furnished
by the National union, to continue the
struggle against the founders who re-
fuse to abide by the decision rendered
by the arbitration board. 1t was re-
ported that the local treasury is in a
sound condition.

Manufacturer of lynn.

Manufacturer of lynn.
J. K. Brown, boot and shoe dealer do
ing business at IA Front street, has
closed up his business for the present,
and yesterday made a voluntary as
Segment through his counsel Wood &
Wood, to G. w. Herrick, a shoe manu-
facturer .Gf Lynn, who is one of his
largest creditors.
Hard times, dull business and finan-
cial losses tell the story. He had made
every effort to tide over the difficulties
which beset him without having re-
course to the step he at last was forced
to take.
Yesterday the door to the store was
locked, and Mr.. Brown and his force
of clerks were busy getting an account
Of the stock in hand, which is a large
one. with a view to ascertaining the
amount Of his liabilities and assets.
The store pending the decision Of the
creditors. will remain closed. The time
of this meeting has not been set. The
creditors are shoe manufacturers and
iobbers in Worcester, Boston and Lynn
for the most part. Mr.. Brown Will,
through his counsel, make an offer of a
certain percentage on the dollar to his
creditors. and it is believed they will
hermit him to go on with his business.

Madrid, May 29.-The funeral of

Manila, May 20, p. m.-An order has
been issued re-establishing the Philip
pine courts, which have been closed

are Manuel Arulla, Colonel Crowder
and Gregorio Aranita.
The justices of the criminal branch
are Raymundo Melissa, Ambrosio

Spanish will be the official language
of the courts. There has been aglIa-
ton among the local British ana
American business men and American
lawyers, who came to the philippines
to make fortunes, to have the Engiish
code and language adopted, but Ma

would be unwise if upset by long US
age. He thought it best to give the me
native courts the language to Whlch
they have been accustomed.
The Spanish salaries proved STUN

WANTS TO STAY WHERE HE is.

Washington, May 29.-An authorita-
tive denial was given today to the
statement set ofoat yesterday that
Archbishop Keane was about to return
from Rome to resume his old post as
rector of the Catholic university, Mon
signor Conaty, the present rector, re-
firing to become bishop Of Columbus.
DR.. Conaty today authorized the fol-
lowing statement:
"At the meeting of the board of trus-
tees of the Catholic university, held at
the university last October, a request
was made by the trustees that Most
Rev. Archbishop Keane be asked 20
devote a year or more OF his time to
help in the completion of the endoW-
ment of the university, so that with
the beginning Of the century the uni
versity might be fully endowed. Arch
bishop Keane, with that disiGterested-
ness which has always characterized
his devotion to the university from the
beginning Of its work, agreed to co
whatever the right reverend rector and
the trustees might desire, provided the
necessary permission was obtained
from the holy see. This was received
and Archbishop Keane will arrive In
the United States the latter part Of
September to begin his work in con-
junction with the right reverend rec
tor and trustees.
1.-The university was never in better
financial and educational condition
than at present. The many endoW-
ments provided during the current
wear, give great hope to the rector ana
the trustees that the work Of complet-
ing the endowment will meet hearty
cooperation on the part of all friends
of the university. 1t is the earnest de-
sire Of the rector that with the new
century it may be possible to show the
holy father that the university, SO dear
TO him, is in a condition TO DO SIM
greater work in the cause Of Eathoncc
higher education for both clergy ana

WHEELER IN BOSTON.
Will Give Memorial Day Grafton In Boston
Theatre.


Boston, May 29.-Gen. Joseph Wheeler,
"Fighting Joe" as he is known the coun-
try over, the veteran of two wars, and
the idol Of his troops, reached Boston at
an early hour this morning. The famous
soldier and statesman is the guest Of Ed
ward W. Kinsley Post, 113, G. A. r., and
will deliver the Memorial day Grafton In
Boston Theatre tomorrow morning.
1t was about half-past six o'clock this
morning when the midnight train from
New York reached the Park square sta
ton of the New York. New Haven &
Hartford railroad. Gen. Wheeler, accom-
panied by his two daughters, the Misses
Annie and Carrie Wheeler, stepped from
the train and were welcomed by the dele
CATION which had been in waiting. Few
of the people whose business brought
them to the station at that early hour
recO ylized in the small slight figure the
man who had won honor and fame in
many a wearying campaign and hard
fought battle of the civil war. who added
new lustre to his already brilliant record
in the fighting before Santiago, and who
now claims as his right a command in the
army In the Philippines. There was no
ostentation about the man, nothing to in
dictate that he was more than an IN
known citizen of the great republic.
