HoLCCMBE WARD

The selection Of a team YVES not difficult task
this spring because all Of the first four players
of the country according to the official rating OF
last season were ready and anxious to make the
trip, so that the only formality was to secure
their promise to go and then nominate them for
the team.
The international regulations permit four men
to each team, and the four selected to represent
the United States are Holcombe Ward last
years champion In both singles and doubles;
William J. Clothier, runner-up at Newport last
summer and the year before; William A Larned,
champion in singles for 1901 and 1902. and
Beals c. Wright, champion in doubles with
Ward. Paul Dashiel, the veteran football au-
thority Ct Annapolis, also went with the team
as captain and manager. The players reached
England June 49,
The first week of the American players on the
other side was wonderful success. Arriving
In London on Monday evening, they began play
the next day at the Queens Club for the cham
pionstip of London, and before the week was
over they had disposed of the whole field, in
Guiding half a dozen of the strongest English
players and the entire team of four experts
from Australia Ward won the championship
Of London in singles, Wright defaulting to him
IN the final round, while Clothier and Larned
won the championship in doubles from Ward
and Wright The American team, therefore, got
both first and second honors in both singles and
doubles.
Last week the Americans were all engaged in
The all England championship tournament at
Wimbledon another suburb Of London. This
meeting is still in progress. and it is expected
to be finished about the middle Of this week
All of these matches important as they are in
themselves. are only preliminary preparation for
the international matches, which begin on July 3.
-Four other nations also challenged for the
Davis cup this season, France, Belgium, Austria
and Australia, and a preliminary tournament
had to be arranged that the strongest Of the
five teams entered should be selected for the
actual challenge matches against the Britishers
for the cup This odd number Of teams resulted
In a peculiar draw, that was very unfavorable
for the American chances.
The dates scheduled for these matches are as
follows: United States vs. Belgium, July 8. 10
and H. at the Queens Club; France vs. winner
of first match and Australia VS.. Austria, July
13 IA and Is. at the Queens Club; finals be-
tween winners Of last two series. July II. is and

Now, the peasants. in spite Of all that is said to

one single respect They are the firrnest and

They cannot even conceive the notion of it being
restricted in any way, excepting always in one
particular, and 1T IS precisely on account OK
the latter that they would wish to see it aug

in which they are not conservative is in their
conviction that the land should belong TO them
and they firmly believe that the Czar-the "Iitts
Father'-would distribute the land among them
if he had the power. That is why they wish
his authority-his autocracy-to be augmented
rather than diminished. They have got It into
their heads that if the land has not yet been
divided up among them. it is because the kindly
intentions of the Emperor have been frustrated
by his mobiles and his officials, against whom
all their III will IS directed. and whom they
