FOR HARLEM
Secretary Nathanson Decides
to Run Off One Big Event
at the Coming Meeting
TRACK Is IMPROVED
Is Pronounced Sufficiently
Fast to Suit the Most
Exacting Horse Trainer

CHICAGO, July s. Secretary

meeting of ten days that will COM
mence at Harlem Park next Wednes-
day, owing to the closing of Washlng-
ton Park He announces the S4OOO
Chicago stakes as the feature for
Saturday, the 10th inst. This event,
always race of good class, filled last
March with 1913 entries. They COM
prise about all the best milers west
of New York, including the champion
and record breaker, Dick Welles.
The new track at Harlem Park mas
continued to improve since the spring
meeting and is fast enough to suit
any one. 1t is safer and has more
cushion than ii had last season.
The programme book for the first

vent the elopement of his sister with a
man whose name he refuses to divulge
but who, he says, is prominent in San
Francisco. They kept a close watch
upon the girl until to-day and sup
posed she had abandoned the idea of
marriage. Without the knowledge of
the girls relatives her lover arrived
here yesterday and she disappeared to-
day.
Eddy threatened dire vengeance upon
his prospective brother-in-law. and
mentioned guns, jails and other terri
Bile means of punishment. but he was
unable up to late hour tonight to
find any trace of the pair.

TENNIS PLAY
BY CHAMPIONS
Challenge Matches in the
State Tournament VIII Be
Held To-Day at San Rafael
SMITH MEETS MacGAVIN
The Struggle Between These
Giants of the Courts Is
Expected to Be Exciting

The challenge matches for the tennis
State championship will be played to-
day on the Hotel Rafael courts. At
1e:SO o'clock Miss Miriam Edwards,
holder, will meet Miss Hazel Hotch-
two sets out of three. At 2:3O O'Clock
in the afternoon Grant M. Smith,
holder, will meet ], Drummond Mac
Gavin. challenger.
Miss Edwards and Miss Hotchkiss
are both from Berkeley and are evenly
matched. Miss Hotchkiss has beaten
the champion in practice several
times lately. Miss Edwards, however,
is the better tournament player. A
close and an exciting match will surely
result when these two fair experts
meet.
The match between Smith and Mae
Gavin should be one of the best played
here. MacGavin is right on edge and
never played a better game than he
put up last Saturday. Smith has not
played in a tournament since last Oc-
tober and his condition has not been
good, but he has lost none of his skill.
He has been playing an excellent game
in practice and will fight hard to re-
never beaten Smith in a tournament,
while the latter has several victories
to his credit. The last match they
played, almost two years ago, was by
far the closest. Smith won the decid-
ing set by a score of 14-12. This set
was probably the most exciting ever
played on the California Club courts.
Each player was within point of the
match more than six times before
Smith won out. The match to-day will
be three sets out of five.
The consolation doubles tournament
played yesterday resulted in a victory
for George James and A. H. Brabant.
In the finals they beat Charles Kuehn
and A. Nourse easily. The best match
was that between Brabant and lanes
and Harry Rolfe and Charles Foley
The former won three sets out of four
The match was exciting from start to
finish The winners played a more ag-
gressive game than their opponents and
won by sharp volleying. The score
was 6-2, 3-6. 7-5. GA. The final match
went in straight sets, the score being
GA. 6-3, 6-2.
Owing to the numerous defaults only
a small number of players were eligi-

them defauted.

JURGEN'S MODEL TAMPA
Is FIRST IN YACHT RACE
Takes the Directors Cup I'm Sharp
Competition on Spreckels Lake,
Golden Gate Park.

B. Jurgen's fast model yacht Tampa
won the silver cup offered by the
Model Yacht Club directors yesterday
al Spreckels Lake. Three boats quail
fed for the finals. Under the rules
the boat winning two final races re-
ceived the trophy. The Tampa won
the second and third. The Santee,
owned by Todd & Adams, won the first
final race. The Coronado, owned by
McCleary, was the other model that
qualified for the finals, but failed to
win a race. The time made in the
three races was: Santee, 3:41, 4:20.
400; Tampa, 3:41, All, 1897; Coron-
ado. 3:4S, 4:26, 4:1S.
The time was not as good as that
made last Sunday, owing to the heavy
wind which prevailed. The best time
of the day was made by the Santee in
a trial race. Her time was 1898. The
following boats won trial or semi-final
races: McCleary's Coronado, 1857;
Todd & Adams Santee, $50; Golfers
Fannie, 4:15; Jurgen's Tampa, 4:54;
Torsen's Roma, 1925; Jurgens Tampa,
400: Todd & Adams Santee, 3:33;
McCleary's Coronado, 5:04.
The first final race. which was won
by the Santee. was the closest ever held
on the park lake. The first and third
boats were only eleven seconds apart.
