A Letter from Delegate Wilcox.

All Over This Country Are Hun

Catarrh of the Stomach Who Are
Wasting Precious Time and En-

Never Effect Cure.

conscientiously recommend IL to anyone
who is suffering with stomach or catarrhal
troubles."-R. W. Wilcox.
Remedies for dyspepsia have multiplied
so rapidly that they are becoming as num-
erous as the leaves of the forest, and vet
dyspepsia continues to flourish in spite of
them all. This is due to the fact that
the cause of dyspepsia is not recognized
as catarrh.
II there is a remedy in the whole range
of medicinal preparations that is in every
particular adapted 10 dyspepsia, that rem
edy is Peruna. This remedy is well nigh
invincible in these cases.
No one suffering with catarrh of the
stomach or dyspepsia. however slight. can
be well or happy. 1t is the cause Of SO
many distressing symptoms that 1t is a
most dreaded disease. Peruna acts i'm
medistely at the seat of the trouble, the

TENNIS TOURNAMENT BEGINS
Cluster Of Unusually Brilliant Matches
Come OF First Day,
PARKER MAKES BEST SHOWING At PLAY
Arkansas Man Easily Defeats the
Champion of OmRha and IL GEM
orally Tipped to win
I'm Finals.

A cluster Of unusually brilliant matches
occurred in the first days play OF the in
~terstate tennis tournament at the Field
club Monday afternoon. OF the dozen or
go star men among the forty entries fully
eight appeared in play on the opening day,
and in three OF the matches these cracks
were opposed to each other. The other
two had comparatively easy things.
AS a result Of all this some OF the best
men in the entry list are already retired,
and consequently the consolation tourna-
ment in singles, to which only those de-
fested in the first round are eligible, will
be the vehicle Of tennis very little inferior
to that OF the struggle for the challenge
cup.
This unusual punching OF the strong men
in the opening afternoons play resulted from
the failure Of several Of those scheduled for
the preliminary rounds to arrive. Eight
matches were arrange for the preliminary
round for Monday. Owing to the absence
Of outsiders only three OF the pairs were
present and ready to play. 1t was decided
to announce no defaults, but to play off
some OF the first round pairs In place Of
the five. This was done, FIVE matches from
the first round, which had drawn byes for
Monday. being called out anyway. This
brought out the cracks and generally one
against the other.
To summarize, W. G. Parker Of Arkansas
City, Ark, laid low Conrad H. Young Of
Omaha, 6-1, So; Isaac Raymond, jr., OF

Five Matches Deferred.

The five matches deferred from the pre-
liminary round will be played, commencing
at 8 o'clock this morning, when all the men
will be here. The winners in these will be
compelled to play a second match, or the
first round struggle proper. at II o'clock.
Thus 1t is planned to get all the first round
and preliminary round out of the way to-
day and a good start will probably be se-
cured on the second round. The five pre-
liminary round matches to occur this morn
ing are:
w. F. Prowett Of Fullerton, Neb., against
w. S. Gilman Of Sioux City, Ia; E. A.
Carey OF North Platte. Neb.. against John
S. Brown OF Omaha; Richie Volk Of Lex
ington, Neb., against G.. o. Hiles Of Sioux
City; c. c. CockerilI Of Pittsburg, Kan,
against L. B. Pasewalk of Norfolk, Neb. f;
e. M. Ashcraft of Chicago against William
Michael Of Sioux City.
1t has been learned that Norman A. Web
ster of Hastings, Neb., who won the tour
rament last year, and therefore holds the
singles cup. will not be present to de-
fend his title, so the cup will go to the
winner Of this tournament permanently
Mr.. Webster was said to have started train
ing for the event, but he later decided not
to make the effort. He would have had to
play only the winner Of the present sim
giles tournament.
A large gallery was out to see the first
days sport. In this there were MANY
women, and the crowd was very enthusiast
tic. Scattered over the veranda or on the
grass terraces below the spectators had q
commanding view of all the courts. Great in
terest was manifested in the play Of the
visitors, many of whom showed beautiful
style. Several strangers have already won
many friends by their play.
