GRANT HOLDS TITLE
New York Indoor Tennis Crack
Holds Championship.

NEW YORK, Feb. %. - Wylie G..
Grant, of the New York Lawn Tennis
club, won the championship title
in the singles of the tournament
for the indoor tennis championship Of
the United States on the board courts
of the Seventh regiment armory. This
is the second consecutive time that
Grant has been able to win the title
He defeated G. c. Kelly, Of the West
Side Tennis club, New York, after FIVE
holly contested sets. The score was
Sc, 6-3, ST, 6-8, TO. Kelly played
much the better tennis of the two, but
was lacking in steadiness at the criti-
cal periods. He made it impossible for
Grant to get in his terrific overhead
smashing by playing the ball low over
the net. Because of these tactics
Grant was compelled to rely upon his
skill at passing, and he was somewhat
erratic in playing these shots. Grant,
however, was fortunate in HIS placing
of the ball when he needed the points
to win the games, and in, this way he
gained the victory. The consolation
singles were finished, resulting in
victory for Calhoun Cragin, who de-
feated Shepard Romans, the former
Princeton football player, whom he
met in the final rounds. The sum-
mary:

CORBETT WILL STAY
WITH THE FEATHERS
Britt the Only Big Man the
Champion Is to
Meet.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Feb. 25.-"No,
/ am not looking for honors in the light
weight division" said Young Corbett at
his training quarters. "Tll never fight Cans
and never will meet another big man after
my fight with Britt
That little spiel came rather unexpect-
edly, as it was limited all along that the
little fellow would go after the light
weight title If he should win from Britt.
When the match with the local man was
made the fight fans all stood up on their
hind legs and yelled, IT told you that fell
low Corbett is growing too fast and he
will be fighting lightweights within a
year" 1t looked like cinch and every
one thought the Denverite really intended
going after the 133-pound men. He is
big and stocky enough. He looks as big
as Kid Lavigne ever did and a great many
think him a lot stronger. It's off, how
ever, as he is not aspiring to be light
weight.
II took on Britt because there is a heap
of money in it for the man who can beat
him." said Corbett in speaking of the CO.
land then, you know, I am almost sure
I can turn the trick. After that fight
will go right down to 126 pounds That's
my right weight. I can make it easily
and you will see some of those fellows who
are bowling about me crawl back into
their holes. I'm not as big as half the
people think I am, and watch me close
in on 126 after these two fights. I've
been taking things easy since beat Nc
Govern and never have tried to keep my
weight down. can make that weight
however, and after these fights will not
take any chances on getting fat and
bringing my weight up"
The little fellow put in a hard day in
the gymnasium yesterday. For over an
hour and half he pulled at the big bag
punched the little one and wrest1ed with
his trainers. He has not started the old
stove stunt this time. He says 1t makes
the place too much like the hot room in
the Turkish baths and will try to do with
out It while training for the next two
fights. The work for the go with Sullivan
will bring Corbett down to $780, and he
will do light work after that until the
fight with Britt is near. The fear Of
growing stale while waiting that month
is worrying some of his friends, but Har-
ry Tuthill says they might just as well
dispel the idea Corbett will not touch
drop Of liquor after the Sullivan fight and
keep in trim until about two weeks Of
the fight with Britt. He has two weeks
rest In the meantime and will spend it
at one OF the near resorts.

The university defeated the North Da-

game Of basketball ever played In the q.
armory by a score Of 33 to H. In one re-
spect the game resembled the Nebraska
game the visitors being ahead at the end
of the first half, but Id everything else It
was far different
The rough playing had a bad effect on
Minnesotas playing, although this i'm
proved as the game went on. In the early
part of the first half Dakota got a lead
Of points, but this was cut down to
IL to before the whistle blew, and in
the second half Minnesota scored goal
after goal, many Of the shots being made
under circumstances Of some difficulty.
Tuck was the most brilliant in this sort
of playing, several times sending the ball
into the basket with a one handed shot
when his opponent seemed to have him
securely covered. Varce and Kiefer also
did some good shooting Rose, of Dakota,
did good work shooting baskets on fouls.

Paraguay Tea.

There comes from Paraguay to the Journal of Tropical Medicine news of m apparently harmless beverage which Is the sole stay and stimulant of the working classes in Paraguay and the Argentine Republic. It is often known as Paraguay tea or mate. and an at- tempt made to introduce 1t into this country some years ago failed because -as we may guess-there were more potent competitors in the field. It is usually drunk as hot infusion, through ! metal tube, but may be taken like tea, with milk and sugar. Workmen take fl with them wherever they go and sip it occasionally. Wood cutters will work on 1t for five or six hours before break fast, and the writer declares that, taken atnight, 1t makes nursing, study or what doctors call might work" real pleasure. Analysis does not explain these results, and lifelong and persistent use appears to have no evil consequences. This would be good substitute for the num- berless patent medicines which supply alcohol to women, or even, in at least one familiar case, cocaine.-London Chronicle.

Immortalles.

The manufacture of immortelle wreaths in Paris occupies at least 1,500 persons. The immortelles are gathered about the beginning of October, and come chiefly from the arid hills in the middle and south of France. They are brought to the markets in their natural condition, and the yellow blossoms are dyed green, red and white, and woven into wreaths by special workmen in readiness for All Saints and All Souls days, when all good Parisians visit their relatives graves. On these "fetes des morts" the gates of the ceme- teries are beset with crowds of dealers in immortelle wreaths, wire crosses and bead crowns. At Pere la Chaise alone more than 100000 persons are calculated to visit the cemetery, and the sale of immortelle wreaths varies from 10000 to 25,000.-Golden Penny.

Curious Incident.

A man on Twenty-third street furnished much amusement to a number of people on a recent windy afternoon by predicament he fell into, or rather that fell onto him. A large gunny sack dropped from the roof of one of the buildings, and, as it descend ed, filled with air, coming down with mouth wide open, like a bal loon. It struck the unfortunate man squarely over the head, coy ering him completely down be- low the shoulders, and pinioning his arms so that he had difficulty in extricating himself. He strug- gled as if he thought he was being kidnaped until he managed to get the sack off his head.-N. ". Post.

PHYSICAL coNscIoUsNEss,
The Brain in Certain States of Aetiv. ity Can Act on the Organic
 Functions.

"Cenesthesia" is the name given to the general feeling we have of the existence of our own bodies, says the London Globe. This sense of existence is chiefly owing to accidental and local impress sions awakening or stimulating the sensibility, but it is completed by a certain obverse conscious ness of the exercise of the organic functions, for example, respira. ton. It is by this sensation that the spiritual Ego perceives itself existing locally in the limited ex- tent of the organism. In perfect health this feeling is continuous, uniform, and equal, and therefore, not special or local. In order to he remarked a certain exaltation of well-being or distinct uneasiness is required. In the hypnotic state certain subjects have a mors or less distinct perception of their internal organs and can exert cer- tain action over them. In fast, they can modify at will all the functions of the "vegetative" life. for instance, the beating of the heart. The fact shows that the brain in certain states of activity can act on the organic functions. If there is a nervous current from the brain to the organs there is also, perhaps, a contrary current from the organs to the brain. Dr.. Cromer, Liebault, and others, maintain that some hypnotic sub jects perceive their internal or gans, and even those of other per. sons with whom they are in hyp notic relations.

Provisions from Trees.

There is a tree which grows in Sumatra, Algeria and China which is known as the vegetable tallow tree. From its fruit large quanti. ties of oil and tallow are extract. ed, and the fruit is gathered in November or December, when all the leaves have fallen. Excellent candles are made from the berries of a tree which grows in some parts of South Africa and the Azores. At Sierra Leone is found the cream fruit tree, the fruit of which is very agreeable in taste. In Ceylon there is the breadfruit tree, from which a food is made in the same way that we make bread. Itis saidt to be equally good and uu- tritiOus. In South America we find the milk tree.-Philadelphia Ledger.
