DARKNESS STOPS PLAY.
Night Ends First Match of Round
Robin Tennis Finals.

The first match in the round robin
finals of the university tennis tourna-
ment was started yesterday, but was
called on account of darkness. Werner
and NeWhall were the opposing play
erS, and when time was called each
player had two sets to his credit.
On account Of the frequent showers
the playing was ragged on both sides,
and neither player eXerted himself at.
any time. Northrop started in with
rush and took the first set, CT, before
Werner had gotten into form. Werner
then braced and went after the second
set, which he corralled, GA. Werner
started in to win the third set and
ran the score to 5-3. The score was
forty-Iove in his favor, and he need
ed but one point to win the set, but
he was not equal to the task, and
Northrop finally pulled UP and won the
set, Sc.
The fourth set went to Werner, 60.
Werner had his opponent on the run
when time was called, and would I'M
doubtedly have won the match if play
had been continued. The match will
be finished this morning. The winner
will play Newhall for the champion
ship Of the tourney.
The st. Paul Tigers will play the
ton park Sunday, Oct. 10.
The Tigers have won every game
so far this season, and the goal line
has yet to be crossed.
The Columbia team is composed of
the pick of the strongest players in
Minneapolis, including six of the Go
piers, who for four years were cham
pions Of the state.
The Tigers lineup this season is
composed of the strongest in the Twin
Cities. 1t includes Kenney, formerly
Of the Mechanic Arts, Spike" Shan
non, team-mate Of Heffelfinger, Kenne-
dy and Poe, Ben Dougherty, Of Har-
ward, and Warner, from Wisconsin.
This game will probably be the best
seen here this season.
The management wishes to state that
no spectators will be allowed on the
field at all, so that every person COM
Ing to the grounds will have a perfect

ence at Washington is one Of the most
marked signs of the degenerating char
acteristics of the Republican party and
its officials who reach place and power
AS for the part that Mr.. Roosevelt has
played in this menacing drama of the
period, we need only to remember his
uncalled for interference in the Miles
case and other similar ones. We
readily concede that Miles is as bad as
the worst of the Republicans, and has
become kicker because his vanity has
not been catered to. But whatever
may be the infrmities of Miles, there
is no denying that his position as the
ranking officer of the army has en-
dowed him with rights and privileges
that the administration ought to re-
spect. In many instances the inter
ference of the President seems only to
suggest the criticism Of pity. That a
President of tLc United States should
mix in" with every trifnig little occur
renee that attracts only the brief and
temporary attention of the country
measures a small and cheap man, no
matter what his claims for public rec
ognition.
This autocratic and imperialistic
spirit pervades all departments of the
government. Its latest demonstration
was made by Secretary Root in the case
of Miss Taylor She was dismissed
from the War Department because she
had criticised unfavorably the Philip
pine policy of the government. In
other words. she was discharged for
her political opinions, for the same
reason that an effort was made to de-
grade and disgrace Admiral Schley.
Public opinion was all that restrained
them in carrying out their intentions
fully in regard to Schley. 1t was only
a poor girl clerk in the Taylor case.
without influential hackers. The the
ory of the administration is that the
law does not protect anybody in either
the military or civil service of the gov
eminent who ventures to criticise it's
policy or happens in any way to incur
its displeasure. Miss Taylor has ap-
pealed to the law to find out whether
that will protect her. Perhaps the
judges may not cater to the idiosyn-
cracies of the Washington depart
ments. They are supposed to be be-
yond executive interference and it's au-
tocratic despotism. If the courts
should reinstate Miss Taylor it would
have a most wholesome influence on
the administration.

INDIHN CRUDENESS.

Our brother-in-red, the noble Indian
of the wild and woolly northwest, is
rapidly assimilating the white mans
civilization. Mr.. Amos Yellow Hawk.
a Romeo of the Sioux Four Hundred,
eloped week or ten days ago with
Mrs. Mary Ann Big Woman, the wife
of chief Of high degree. Mr.. Yellow
Hawk, it may be observed, is also the
head of a family. But he no sooner
saw the fascinating Mrs. Mary Ann Big
Woman than he forgot his marital
obligations and loved her not wisely
but too well.
The fates were not kind to the
elopers. They had fast ponies and
planned we'll, but the white mans tel
cphone got in it's work, and when they
thought they were safe from pursuit
they fell into the arms of the waiting
police. Mr.. Yellow Hawk was put
into the guard house, and is there now
rejecting on the folly of violating the
social conventions of the white man.
Mrs. Mary Ann Big Woman was taken
back to her dishonored spouse, and her
fate has not been revealed
If the red Romeo had been as wise
as some of the members of the pale
face Four Hundred, he would have
managed the matter differently. When
man and wife in our most pretentious
society grow weary of each other, they

take up residence for few months, and
then file suit for divorce. The courts
are accommodating and almost anV
trifing peccadillo is cause for separa-
ton. Matrimonial bonds are quickly
and easily severed in South Dakota
and as Mr.. Yellow Hawk lives in that
State in which the di~orce mill is al
ways we'll oiled and working busily, LIE
is ineXcusable for not adopting tn ]
White mans plan. AS he is said to be
a graduate of the Carlisle school, 1t is
plain that that institution does not
equip the siwash with all the ideas
Of r1Odern progress. Mrs. Mary Ann
Big Woman might have followed the
same course, and when the courts had
gwen them their freedom they coui3
have established matrimonial part
nei: hip without violating the social
conventions.

Difficult Dentistry.

The nawab of Rampur, whose DO
main is about 600 miles to the north
west Of Calcutta, came down from his
home to call on DR.. Smith. says Lon

him to see about his mothers teeth.
She wanted a set of false teeth and
because Englishwomen had two sets
the maharima must have two sets also.
The nawab Of Rampur is Il Moham-

not show her face.
Likewise ON that account DR.. Smith
had to go to Rampur to do the work,

President Roosevelt's speeches IN
New England read in those parts in
which he touched on the tariff as if he
thought his Yankee hearers were pre-

medley Of inaccurate history, bad logic
and short-sighted policy can be de-
Tended only on the plea that Luther
irreverently used in connection with
what he thought an unsound argument
in one of st. 'Paul's epistles.- 1t was

q cd enough for the Yankees" Trasi-
dent Roosevelt may be imagined as
saying of his tariff speeches. Certain
ly we should not advise him to try it
