has proved TO be the dark horse of the tourney
carried off first prize almost without an effort
He was opposed by Calhoun Cragin. an old New
York player, In the final match, and cragin was
handicapped. Bowen, however, outplayed his an
tagenist at every point, and much better able
to give the odds than Cragin, who seemed to be
badly out of form and suffering from lack OF prac-
tice. Bowen's service and his fast volleying were
his strongest points and Cragin found II difficult to
get the balls out of BOwens reach so the latter
could not kill them The New-YoFker got only one
game each in the first and third sets. and none at
all in the second
The championship doubles VIII be finished later In

OPIUM WILL BE CHEAPER.
Wars Having Some Effect on Various
Other Drugs Also.

The wholesale drug market has been
affected by the wars of the year and
the drought of this spring. Carbolic
acid, which went ballooning because
England was using so much in making
iyddite shells, is now going down.
Picrio acid is also used in the manu-
facture of lyddite, and the price has
been way up. The war in China is
likely to lower the price of opium. It
will lessen the demand for the drug In
the celestial empire, and as India and
Ceylon have large quantities that they
must dispose of, the American mar
ket can get it cheap.
One of the chief articles of our
trade with China is cassia oil and
bark. The shipments have stopped
and the price is going up. In return
the Chinese use large quantities OF
ginseng root. They are superstitious
i'll regard to this drug and pay fabulous
prices for good roots. They make il
up into various decoctions and keep il
by them constantly. It is now sell
ing for S. a pound and going up.
The wars in hot tropic countries
have doomed the quinine trade, for il
is still the staple remedy for malarial
fevers.
