That this was no fuke the Newport tour
nament fully proves, for in defeating Ho-
bart in the final round he certainly had
the hardest work of anyone in the prelim-
mary matches, scoring hollow victories
over w. C. Grant. w. F. Johnson. Harry
f. Allen, William J. ClOthier and William
A. Larned as opposed to his opponents
successes against F. c. Colston, Q. Chew
(defaulD, r. n. Dana, Richard Stevens and
the western champion, Kreigh Collins. The
left-hander is a wonderful master Of all
strokes and his capacity for covering the
court is nothing short OF wonderful. A
little weak in the service, perhaps he more
than atones for this in his remarkable ac-
curacy, and with youth on his side he is
bound to remain an important factor in the
annals Of American tennis history for many
years TO come. OF course, the browning
event Of his history was the capturing OF
championship honors in the challenge
round. Without in any way detracting
from his victory 1t should nevertheless be
borne in mind that the ten days play and
the quality Of the players he had to meet
had put him in great shape for this contest
/ ing match and in this way he had a strong
advantage over the holder OF the title.
! On account OF the tremendous power that
is now supplied by racing automobiles and
| the dangers that are in evidence when they
are driven at high speed, either on the
| track or road. the suggestion has been
made that, in future contests. cars should
/ be entered only when they have a motor
/ OF a certain size.
The idea is 10 limit the cylinder volume
/ 10 a certain size bore and stroke, like 5x4
inches or 5l4x4lk. which would put manu-
| facturers on their mettle to bring out a
machine which would be the fastest under
| restrictions OF that sort. II two or three
| manufacturers had motors Of equal size
! the maker who could get the most OF that
/ power TO the rear wheels by proper trans
mission, by reducing the weight OF the
car and by building the machine on proper
lines, would naturally be credited with
having the best automobile. Cars sc
made would probably travel around a mile
a minute, but no faster, and would be safe
| compared with the present racing machine.

If you doubt that the nickel and quar- ter business doesn't pay, consider ths money-making propenstties of the aver

On a medium hot summers day some s8G0 are derived from renting these rooms, for the com partments are used in the course of the day by about 4,000 persons Bathing suits rent for 25 cents each. There would be 5000 of them for such pavil- ion. which means s1.000 day if half of them are rented once; and it is fair to assume that three-fourths of the 4.0O0 bathers pay five cents for the use of a comb and brush-s15o.

Although it Ia a dis tance of two and one-half miles from the Prior bee ranch to Golden Gate park, the bees make the trip there, collect loads of honey aud get back to the hivs ia two minutes, making a bullst-ltks flight at the surprising rate of l50 miles an hour MT Prior has demonstrated this by having an observer watch cor tain bee-favored places in the park and exactly timing the arrival thsre of bees he purposely sprinkled with four as they issued from a hive. He has also kept time on the absence of the whitened bees.

ASPARAGUS HAS A LINEAGE
teem Many Years Before Christ

Of all food plants there is none which has been so long known or been pos sessed of so distinguished lineage as tho asparagus. It's records reach back almost to the beginning of authentic hls- tory. and 1t is mentioned by the comic poet Cratinus. who died about 425 5 C. The Romans held the vegetable ln high esteem. The elder Cato wrote a work which is still extant, De re Rustica." and 1t treats at length of the virtues aud proper cultivation of asparagus. Pliny, in his natural history, written about 50 A. D., has much to say about it. Hs feeIingly observes: Of all the products ot your garden your chief care should be asparagus" and be devotes several chapters to its many good qualities and the best methods of raising it. He as- ssrts that the soil about Ravenna vas 20 favorable to it's production that three heads grown tn that district had bsen known to weigh a Roman pound. This pound seems to have been about equal to II ounces in our day. 80 1t would ap- parently have talk en four of the stalks to have reached a pound of our weight. The asparagus being essentially a southern plant, 1t Is possible that the stock growing in Italy was of more vigorous growth than that of our north ern cline. It is found all around the shores of the Mediterranean and branches of into four or five distinct species besides the one ordinarily used for edible purposes.

Mr.. r. A. Romans returned last week
from ten days trip to Alabama. Mr.
Romans is one Of syndicate who have
purchased land on a narrow peninsula
south of Mobile and extending to Fort
Morgan. Mr.. Romans tells US that .
deep water harbor is being opened up
near his land and that railroad is to be
built at once. The navigation of Mobile
Bay is an expensive and difficult operation
for large vessels and it is expected that a
new city will spring up at the deep water
harbor which will be great rival for the
old southern city. If this is the case the
land owned by the syndicate will become
very valuable. Mr.. Romans declares thai
the climate near Fort Morgan is delight.

THE HAIL SUFFERERS.

The REVIEW extends its sincere sympa
thy to those who saw their growing crops
destroyed by the severe storm of last week.
The fields cf corn and grain meant many
weary hours of toll and they told Of many
comforts, many hopes and plans and fond
ambitions to be realized when the golden
grain was gathered in. The farmers OF
Crawford are thrifty and fore-handed,
there will be little actual suffering i'm
posed on anyone. but it is nevertheless
hard to see the work of summer blasted
in an hour. We are glad to say that the
destruction while widespread is not uni
versal aud it is hoped that many fields will
yet yield a half crop. we believe that
hereafter more farmers will carry hail in
surance as wise precaution against just
such valuations. Again we repeat tina,
the losers have our sincere sympathy anc
it is our hope that another year they may
have much better fortune.
Mr.. G. L. Voss has purchased the Sag
farm in East Boyer. There are something
over 200 acres and it appears to be bar

A BALD PROPOSITION. J

The REVIEW is in receipt of an adver-
tising proposition from the manager OF
hair raising establishment in Chicago.
The manager evidently kuows the guile
lessness of the country newspaper mar.
He urges us to run his advertisement Ave
times, at the end of which time if the ad::
vertisment has paid him he will pay US
half. The half Of what. he does not say.
He further intimates that it would be kind
of.us to run the advertisement Eve times
free, with the hope that if we do. and if
it pays him, he will advertise with us for
year. This is an opportunity we have
long sought. The REVIEW is purely a
philanthropic institution, we have no bills
to pay and life is one long fretful dream
of devising ways and means SO that we
may not die rich If we could but have il
on our tomb, he put uncouuted hairs on
uncounted heads what better epitaph
could we wish. Andy Carnegie would not
be in with us. We could string uur gold
ed harp with hair from the heads of our
grateful benefactures. But we have put
the temptation behind us. The ghost
that walks on Saturday night cannot be
laid with hair oil But the ner,e of that
man. We shall admire it to our dying
day. He certainly is hair raiser. and
we expect that he will find many editors
less mercenary. less sordid and avaric-
ious than ourselves who will jump at this
chance to get "half if it pays him and he
cannot get it free"
Since writing the above we have
received a letter from the enterpris-
i ing advertiser telling US in a firm but

further states that we only intend tc

The firemen soon had water on the
burning structure, but it was plainly
to be seen that the hotel was doomed
and all attention was paid to keeping
the building dampened and the
neighboring structures wet.
The fire had started in the furnace
room from some causes unknown and
was gradually eating its way between
the studding towards the roof. The
fire burned tiercely on the inside
of the top story and soon the
roof had been burned off. Nine

streams Of water were at one time
deluging the building and it was
to this that is due holding the flames
on the inside and not allowing q
break through. Had the fire not
been hampered in this manner. the
buildings near the hotel would have
suffered as the fire would soon have
crossed the street and several blocks
would have been wiped out.
The firemen, assisted by the bust
ness men and Others worked with
heroic GOODNESS until about $50 when
the hotel building collapsed. At this
time it was found that the water
works were disabled and the streams
stopped. Here is where the fright
csme in. The building adjoining the
burned structure occupied by Nikkola
& Co. as meat marked and Rautta
the Tailor became ignited from the
hot collapsed ruins. The neighbor-
ing residents at this juncture began
removing their effects to safety and
pandemonium seemed eminent. A
line of hose had been laid from the

to the Gleason corner and it was pro-
posed to pump water from the Pioneer.
Just about when everyone began to
dispair, the pressure again came on
and work was again resumed.
The edges of the ruins were kept
soaked and attention was directed to
the burning meat market which was
soon under control but not until the
roof had burned. The streams were
kept playing on the burning ruins
until the afternoon when another
obstacle in the shape of break in
the main occurred. The fire by this
lime had been squelched. More men

secured. With pals the Flames were
kept from encrOaching on the neigh.
Doring buildings. The main was
repaired during the night. and the
next day and Wednesday night the
ruins were again thoroughly soaked
and all fire put out. To further
assist during Wednesday, about 3
inches of snow fell.
TO the credit of the firemen it must
be said, all worked like beavers and
in this they were ably assisted by
several of the business men and a
force sent up from the Pioneer by
Capt. Trezona. 1t was hot propo-
sition and no mistake as the build
ings in the vicinity will show. On
the south and west side of the hotel
corner all the fronts are cracked and
the paint blistere1. A garden hose
did effective work on the fronts of

Ward was four pounds overweight and
Ryan as much under the stipulated

men were on their feet at the end of

called "a draw. Ryan, although fight.

weight gradually wore Ryan down. His
cleverness kept Ward of. In the pre-
