RESULT OF MORNINGS PLAY.
There was much interest in the con-
tests this morning and at least one of
them resulted in a considerable surprise.
This was the defeat by L. c. Matteson, of
Faribault of w A. Lawhead, of the
Bryn Mawr club, of Minneapolis. 1t had
been expected that Lawhead would re-
main in until at least the semi-tinaIs
and his defeat by a player in one of the
newest clubs of the state was somewhat
of surprise. Matteson was handiIy de-
feated in the Afternoon by Bolcom of
Winona, so that he can hardly be re-
garded as one of the top-notchers, though
nevertheless a very clever player. The
morning play also indicated that Winona
would likely be in the final match, as
two out of the four players winning a
place in the semi-fnals were Winonians
