Several Universities Will Have Formid-
 able Teams in the New Haven Tour
 nament.
 The American college tennis champion will be selected this week. The nine teenth annual tournament begins on the grounds of the New Haven Lawn club this afternoon, and indications are that the standard of play will be fully equal, if not superior, to that of recent years.
 Yale, Harvard and Princeton never entered more formidable teams than will play this year. The graduation of the champions Leo Ware and Max Whitman from Harvard has not appar ently weakened that university's tennis strength, for Dwight Davis, Beals Wright and Holcombe Ward will be there of the four Harvard entries. Princeton will send the strongest dele gation which has represented the Tigers here in many years. P, D. Little, Alex ander and Ogden will be the Princeton leaders, a fourth man coming in the singles. Yale will enter two strong play CTS in H. 1T. Hackett and J. Appleton Allen. Her other two representatives are not selected.
 Joseph T. Whittlesey of this city will, as usual referee the matches of the tournament. The ladies of the New Ha- ven Lawn club will tender reception and tea to the visiting players on one of the evenings of the tournament. It is expected that several of the smaller col leges will be represented. The new cup, offered last year for the first time, was won and held temporarily by the crim- son representatives last season. This year Yale is hopeful of capturing it, as the representatives of the blue are vet erans and will have the enthusiastic support of a large Yale crowd. The sin gles will begin this afternoon and the doubles tomorrow morning.
 The officers of the Intercollegiate as- sociation are at present: President, Dwight Davis Harvard; vice president, F. D. Little, Princeton; secretary and treasurer, J. A. Allen, Yale.

Her only near relative at the funeral was her brother, Dr. Cur tiss of Philadelphia, who has long re- sided in that city and who, though over eighty years of age, still devotes some of his time to the practice of his profes- sion. The deceased leaves a nephew in this city, Horace Oatman, and various distant relatives.

THE COUNTRY CLUB
DOINGS AT THE CLUE AND ON THE
 LINKS.
Members Have Now Access to House Lunches and Dinners to be Had Daily Week.


 Tine Golf Competitions for This
 Week.
 The past week has been a busy one at the New Haven Country club All week the genial and obliging stewards or the club, MT and Mrs. J. G. Henderson, have been actively engaged Ill gettlnS things so arranged that the members could take advantage of 1t by Saturaay, and in this they were successful anu were able to serve light lunches to the many golfers who were out at the game In the evening a game dinner was serV- ed and greatly enjoyed by all who par took of it. A chef has not yet been de- cded on and in the meantime that de- partment will be managed by Mrs. Hen derson, and dinners or lunches, when not of an elaborate nature, can be fur nished by giving timely notice to the steward.
 The house committee has returned to town with the exception of Mrs. Henry l.. Hotchkiss. During the week Mrs. J.. K. Beach and Mrs. w. K. Townsend have been very active in completing and hurrying along the arrangements for the formal opening, which will take place as soon as the new and handsome furniture for the rooms comes to hand. Last week was one of the busiest of the season on the golf links, and Professor Shells was kept busy giving lessons ln the royal and ancient game and in fix ing up the many clubs that were return ed with broken heads and split shafts, for if there is one thing above another that the golf novice is good at in the early stages of his career it is the easi- ness with which he breaks his clubs. Practice soon enables him to get over this, however, and the only difficulty he has to contend with afterwards is lost balls. This can also be reduced to a minimum by practicing the art of keep ing his eye on the spot where his ball lands.
 This week promises to be very busy one on the links, and the following com petitions are set down by the green com committee to be played off:
 Wednesday, October 4-Ladies' four some competition (handicap).
 Saturday. October Mixed foursome (eighteen holes), match play and ham, dicap.

Ernest Harriet as Pastor of Church of the Ascension.
 The congregation of the Church of the Ascension had the pleasure of lis-
 tening to their new rector, Rev. Ernest
 Marriet, for the first time yesterday
 morning. He preached a sermon of re-
 while his manner of delivery charmed all hearers. He chose as his text St. Luke xvi, 26, And beside this is a
 great grief fixed"
 In opening the speaker described the purpose of the church. He said that 1t is to bridge over the gulf of misunder- standing that separates soul from soul and nation from nation. Continuing, he spoke in part as follows: Men are not created free and equal, but slaves to passions-inherited tendencies and lean- jngs toward evil; they are born with unequal endowments and capacities. Gods world was meant to contain men of varied characters and unequal ca pacities Men are as varied as flowers. There is and has always been the man of one talent, of five talents and of ten talents.
 But the establishment on the Day of Pentecost of the Holy Catholic church means that within this world souls of varied character are to dwell together in peace and unity. War is not Gods method. We are far from that condi- tion when one Christian nation rushes into war with another Christian people, The Church of Christ and the Apostles was founded to bring souls into one brotherhood, having a common faith, worship and life. The church is found ed to bring men to dwell together in peace, each recognizing, however, the others differences of character and work and honoring each. The coming of the Holy Spirit-the spirit of unity as well as holiness-means the gift of the power to overcome misunderstood ing, to bridge the gulf that separates soul fsom soul and nation from nation.
 Church membership means member ship in a brotherhood formed for the bearing of each others burdens and for mutual help. The church that doesn't try to heal the sores of our social life and better our common life is unwor- thy of the Master and Founder. From the beginning the church has kept be- fore the eyes of the world these two monuments of peace and unity-the common faith expressed in the apostles creed and the worship of God centering about the person of the Lord Jesus in the Holy Eucharist. Here lies our duty first-to maintain these in true integrity and to do this we must draw near tu the source of power, Communion with Him must be the goal and ambition of all our thought and work, our prayers. our service.''
