TENNIS
CONTESTS
Players in The National Tour
nament Were Slow in Getting
to W0rk-ReSuIt Of Play.

The national tennis tournament players
were slow in getting at work today at
Newport, on account OF dubious weather.
1t was cloudy and warm. with frequent
showers. The ground keepers were busy
rolling and brushing the courts, and
shortly before noon the games were
started.
The schedule was not heavy and 1t was
hard to decide which match should be
put on the championship courts. Finally
the lot fell on H. l. Doherty and Rich
ard tSevens. The match attracted little
attention, as II was considered to be only
a question whether or not the English
players would win in straight sets.

the blaze this time origi-
mating In the steam laundry located
on Grand street, across from the
Star livery stable, and it took
some lively work on the part of the

The fire started on the second
floor, through leakage in the gaso-
line tank on one of the machines
in the steam laundry, and almost
before the alarm could be given the
flames were bursting out of the
roof, and for time the fire burned
fercely and hot, and it looked as
though the laundry building and
the machine shop next to it would
be totally destroyed. Two streams
of water soon had the fire under
control, however, but not before the
upper portions of both buildings
had been ruined.

AT a special meeting of the

building being erected by J. T. Lo-
baugh & Co. was declared to be a
nuisance, and the marshal was in
structed to proceed to tear it down
at noon on Wednesday it it was not
sooner abated. Lobaugh & Co. met
this move with an order issued
from the superior court restraining
the city from putting its order into
effect. Meantime they are pro-
ceeding with the erection of a four
inch brick wall, which the council
holds is not a wall within the mean
ing of the ordinance. The ordinance
fails to specify the thickness neces-
sary, stating only that "the outer
walls shall be composed of brick
stone, concrete or iron" Lobaugh
& Co. claim that their building will
clearly come within the reading of
the ordinance.

GIVES AWAY HIS CASH.
Smiths Generosity Is Grand but Quite
unjnt enticnat

Merrill5Wls., July 12.-Some young
sters went into w. G. Smiths place OF
business aay or two ago to ask Tor
empty cigar boxes. Smith is an oblig-
ing man. He likes to- accommodate
little boys. so he hustled around and
fitted out the lot with boxes. Little
Eddy Cotey thought that his boxes
were slightly heavier than usual, D',t
he said nothing and took them home.
Then he opened them, and in one OF
them was a pile of greenbacks. Little
Eddy was delighted at his gift, but
Mrs. Cotey viewed the matter with
better judgment and sent the money
back. 1t counted UP to just S305. vt
was Smiths llrn to be surprised when
the money came in. He had beer in
the habit of slowing his bills in a cigar
box and putting it in the safe. In
some way mere had been a shifting of
boxes and the money box had been
relegated to the pile Of cast away
stuff
