EARLHAM GOT BUT A SET

1t was Hanover all the way. in the
double tennis tourney, which was
held at Earlham yesterday afternoon.
Hanover's representative C. H. Old
father and w. N. Salisbury played
consistent tennis throughout and it
was only in the second set. that the
Earlham men showed any remarkable
form. In this set they began to play
together and succeeded in pulling it
out of the fore, winning by the score
of 6-2.
In the first. third and fourth sets
the Hanover men clearly demonstrate
ed their ability by easily defeating
Earlham, the score standing 6-2 6-3
and GA. The playing of Oldfather
was the feature of the tourney. His
steady playing combined with his ter
rife serves and returns won the plau-
dts and admiration of all those pres
ent. Frank Gardner of Earlham
played an excellent game. his work
at the net being a feature. Lowell
Parker of Earlham and w. N. Sails
bury of Hanover played very good
games, but their work was a tribe err
ratio at times.
The prizes which were awarded by
several of the Richmond merchants,
together with the winners of the
same are as follows:
First prize in singles, one dozen
tennis balls Awarded by the Earlham
Tennis Association. Won by c. H.
Oldfather of Hanover.
Second prize in singles, tennis mar
ker. Awarded by Mr.. Morrow. Won
by Russell Wilson of Earlham.

- ENMARK, European
i N state about the size and
- shape of a strip of bacon,
- used to have king named
Hamlet
Fine chap. Everybody seemed to
like him-after he was dead. He
had son named Hamlet, jr., and a
brother named Claudius
Also, though she didn't amount to
much, a wife named Cert. who, to-
gether with the jeweled sky-piece of
Brother Ham, looked good to Claud.
Nobody, not even himself, had any
idea that Claudius was in danger of
growing stoop-shouldered on account
of the heft Of his brain. or having
to send the insurance companies a
new report of his chest expansion on
account of the increasing size of his
heart.
One day, when the King wasn't
busy, he went and took nap in the
peach orchard, and Claud went out
with a little bottle of knockout drops
and poured them in the veranda of
Hams ear, after which the King for
got to wake UP.
The people, who always get it
where Gladys got the goitre, were
told that bug had stung their
boss. Which was true, all right, so
far as his being stung was concern
ed.
Cert, broad-minded thing that she
tool lilo fnr oil 0,If
ten minutes, and then got married to
Claudius.
To say that Ham jr., was a sore
boy over these carryinngs-on would
be like saying that being born of
Ethiopian parents was bad for the
complexion. He mooned around a
lot about it. And if it hadn't been
for a love affair of his own he would
have made trouble right on the start
The girl he bought soda water for
was named Ophelia, and was the solo
daughter of a doddering old talk
foundry named Polonius, lord cham
berlain or janitor or something else
I'm high authority about the palace.
This Polonius was a noisy old
auntie, who overlooked with a hemor-
rhage of advice If you didn't hurry
past him. AS buttinsky he had the
whole remaining membership of his
sewing circle bleached.
He also had a son named Laertes,
Lurt went away to Paris, at which
time the old man gave him lot of
wise information, among which was
that it didn't pay to talk too much.
Nobody had any better chance to
know this by experience than did
Polonius.
One night, when Ham, jr., was dub
bling around the palace, wondering
where he'd left his latch key, one of
the sentries called him and said:
Say Hammie, me and the other
boys here on guard have been getting
scared almost into the foolish house
lately, every midnight, by spook
that comes loafing around here and
looking uncomfortably like your now
popular father"
1.-THE dickens you say!" said Ham,
jr., I'll stay and have a talk with him.

AN APPEAL.
(By a Victim to Ambition

(By Victim to Ambition.)
Dear. gentle Editor forbear
To print another line
OF that remorseless contest,
But hear these woes Of mine.
You see our Mary won a prize,
A dollar big and round,
And since that day the neighbours all
Each morning can be found
A cutting up their papers
Into tiny little strips,
And pinning them and pasting them
All neatly onto slips.
Our husbands take an interest,
They think 1t rather fine,
But / notice often lately,
That they go down town to dine.
The children take "a piece at noon,
And steps with wary tread,
For mothers in the contest.
And its going to her head
have a vision night and day
or words in endless flou,
All strung like beads upon a string
Or fitting to and fro.
The parts of speech that once were
mine
Are here so multiplied,
They'll have to all be caught again,
And be re-classified.
The noun has lost it's adjective,
The governing verb its noun,
Each proposition is possessed
To run its object down.
And thus they go in endless chase
Before my weary eyes.
In every house tbs just the same
Since Mary got the prize.

AMERICANS
AT ATHENS
Sheridan of New York Beats
Greeks at Their Own Came
Daniels Leads Swimmers.

ATHENS, April 26.-American atm
letes have made good here. Martin
Sheridan of the Irish Athletic club,
New York. threw the discus farther
than any man ever threw it before.
and C. NJ. Daniels, New York Athletic
club, won the final heat in the 100 me-
ter swimming race with ease.
Sheridan's win in the discus event
was sensational in the extreme. 1t is a
particularly Grecian branch of athletic
sport, and the Greek champion at il.
GeOrgantas, was Il formidable Oppo-
nent. He was the man Sheridan fear
ed. Sheridan heaved the missile 1874
feet . inches, beating his W record
of 127 feet Z inches, while the best
Georgantas could do was 124 feet. Jap
viners, IA Finlander. was third.
The royal family of Greece arrived
early, and it seemed that about every
body else in Greece happened along at
about the same time. 1t was agreed
that the flag of the nation winning
each event should be waved to inform
the multitude of the outcome.
Chief interest was conferred in the
discus throwing. which was held in the
athletic field near the Temple of Olym-
pus. There wasn't d Greek in all that
asst crowd not satisfied that Georgian
tas would be victor.
But the Grecian champion had a
mighty respect for the brawny Sheri-
dan. who beat him in practice, and
was not so con--aat as his adherents.
Sheridan's winning throw was mag
nificent.
1t needed no complicated measure
ments on the part of the judges
Prince George. Jim Sullivan of New
York and Robertson of England-to
determine the winner of that event.
While the members of the American
team present at the victory of their
companion We're hugging each other
for joy a Greek soldier walked out to Il
position from which he commanded a
view of the entire Stadium. Two hun
dred thousand eyes Were upon him.
With wonderful dramatic effect he I'M
furled an American flag. and the way
ing of the dear old red, white and blue
telegraphed to the uttermOst boundar-
les of the crowd the news of our vic
tory.
Talk about cheers! There never was
anything like it. Those Greeks, al
though an American had beaten them
at their own game, arose and howled
as though the victory had been their
own. sftf ~ fst
The three preliminary heats of the
100 meter race were won by Ameri-
cans.
The 500 meter race afforded magnif-
cent sport, Americans winning two
heats out of four. James ID. Light
body, Chicago university. won the first
heat. and Charles !. Beacon, Irish
American Athletic club, was second in
the same heat. Lieutenant Wyndham
Halswelle. England, was second in the
second heat. The fourth heat was won
by Z. H. Pilgrim, New York Athletic
club.
Ray c. Ewry. New York Athletic
club, won the standing long jump.
