Clothier, Dewhurst, Behr and Anderson
 Survive in Singles.

Survive in Singles.
 Boston, July 26.-The seni-fnals were reached to-day in the lawn tennis tour nament for the Longwood cup, while at the close of the play tonight the con- test for the eastern championship in doubles was within one match of sim liar stage.
 The survivors in the singles event are W. J. Clothier and E. B. Dewhurst, of Philadelphia K. H. Behr, of New Ha- ven, and F. c. Anderson, of New York. ITo-morrow Clothier will play Dewhurst, while Behr will meet Anderson. In the doubles event the favorites for the finals. Hackett and Alexander and Clothier and Larned, won their matches to-day in straight sets, although the Boston pair, Johnson and Johnson, gave Clothier and Larned hard contest late this afternoon.
 The feature match of the day was the contest between E. R Dewhurst, a na- tive of Australia, and the present Penn sylvania champion, and Robert Leroy, of New York. Five sets were played before the Philadelphia expert secured a well-earned victory. Dewhurst play ed a deep driving game and was able to pass Leroy when the latter ran in on his service. In the second and third sets Leroy drove DeWhurst back on the base line and won on the Philadelphi- ans errors. In the fourth and fifth sets, however Dewhurst regained his slashing style, while Leroy tired badly at the close.
 Another good match in sigles was be- tween K. H. Behr and I. c. Wright, the latter a brother of the national champion.
 The first set was one of the hardest fought of the week, more than a quar- ter of an hour being consumed in play ling the first two games, while the first set went to sixteen games before Behr won.
 Of the nine matches played during the day In the eastern doubles only two re- quired extra sets Dana and Gross played four-set match with B. H. Hayes and N. w. Cabot, while Hallow- ell and Ware put out Pell and Leroy in hard f1ve-set contest.
 It is expected that the seml-f1nals in both events will be played tomorrow and the finals on Saturday,

cock, all of this city. The majority of the stock, it is stated, is held by New Haveners, though some of it has been distributed in Bridgeport and New York city.
 The property purchased by the Melba company is at Whitestone, L. l., within the corporate limit of Greater New York, and is situated on the water front. According to a statement of George w. Lewis, the New Haveners paid about $7OO,O0O for the land on which it is estimated HOO building lots of good size can be located after the usual development, cutting of streets, etc., has been done.
 The articles of incorporation state that the company can deal in real es- tate in Connecticut, New York and other states of the United States, but according to MT. Lewis the Long Island property is at present the only one in which the company is interested.
 Deeds have not been passed yet but the trustees of the new corporation. Messrs. Avis, Bishop and Lewis, will take title to this land about August and will in turn pass the ownership to the Melba company.

A PROFESSOR OF PLEAS.

Odd Profession in France-Troubles of
 One of the Impresarios.
 Among the curious professions which one meets with in this country from time to time is that of professor of fleas What the professor trains his alert pupils to do I cannot imagine writes the Paris correspondent of the London Globe, but every now and then at the shows which camp on the outskirts of Paris the flea professor has his booth.
 One of these strange impresarios named Jooolino lately took up his resi- dence in a lodging house in the Rue St. Crharles, Unfortunately Jocolino's pupils multiplied with far more rapid ity than he could train them to be well behaved, with the result that their ac- tive disposition led them to explore the adjoining rooms of the lodging house, where they performed on their own account.
 Their visits were not to the liking of the nelghbors, and Jocollno was VpAiSCu lo IlSteH lO SOlHe very 1OrclDle remonstrances on the subject, The nuisance, however, did not abate, and finally one of the tenants, a plumber named Sauvin, decided to take the matter into his own hands. rmed with large quantity of insect powder, the irate plumber entered Joeollnos s room in the absence of the professor and sprlnkled the exterminator in all directions.
 While he was so engaged, however, the flea trainer returned. and mistak- ing the plumber for a burglar, seized a revolver and shot him in the head. sauvin is now living in hospital and the trainer of the lively flea is in the hands of the police.

A SOLDIERS MEMORIAL.
His Comrades Remember Him and the
 Cause of His Death.

Cause of His Death.
 The grim humor of soldiers is not of ten displayed on tombstones, but here is an inscription from the cemetery at Winchester revealed on a walking tour in these parts;
 "Tn memory of Thomas Thetcher, a grenadier in the North Regiment of Hants Militia, who died of violent fever contracted by drinking small beer when hot, the 12th of May 1764, aged twenty-six years.
 Tn grateful remembrance of whose universal good will toward his com- rades this stone is placed here at their expence as a small testimony of their regard and concern: Here sleeps in peace a Hampshire
 grenadier,
 Who caught his death by drinking cold
 small beer Soldiers, be wise from his untimely
 fall,
 And when we're hot drink strong or
 none at all
 This memorial being decayed, was restored by the officers of the garrison A. D. 17S1.
 "An honest soldier never is forgot, Whether he dled by musket or by
 pot "This stone was placed by the North Hants militia when disembodied at Winchester on the 26th of April, 1902, in consequence of the original stone being destroyed. "-London Tribune,

HAKTJE TESTIPIES.
More Sensational Testimony in NOtori-
 ous Pittsburg Divorce Cane.


 Ous Plttsburg Divorce Case. Pittsburg, July 2s.-At to-day's ses- sion of the Hartje trial counsel for Augustus Hartje called witnesses to re- flute the story told by Coachman ''Tom" Nadine to the effect that while Mrs. Mary Scott Hartje was in Memphis, Hartje met a blonde woman in Schley park and took her to his home in the carriage driven by Nadine.
 Josephine Wright, whom Augustus Hartje had been charged with visiting, was placed in the statd and testified that HSrtje had never visited her; that she only knew him by sight and had never spoke to him. The manner in which John M. Freeman, of counsel for Mrs. Hartje, cross-examined her, led to the report that was not de- nied by some interested in the case, that witnesses would be placed on the stand by Mrs. Hartje to rebut the Wright Woman's testimony.
 The unusual spectacle of husband giving evidence that if produced in glVlng Vldence that If produced in a his wife of crime, the punishment for which is Imprisonment in the peniten- tiary, also was seen to-day.
 Albert Ashby, husband of Blanche Ashby, formerly a domestic in the Hartje household, swore that his wife had told him she had lied in the depo- sition she made for Mrs. Hartje and that she had been promised money for doing so, This evidence was to offset the attempt of Hartie's attorneys to show that there had been improper in- fiuence used in securing testimony for the other side.
 Ashby also swore that his wife had told him that Mrs. Hartje had declared to her she was sorry she had not re- turned to live with Hartje when he asked her to go back to him.
 In cross-examination letter which Ashby had written to Mrs. Hartje was placed in evidence. In 1t he told Mrs Hartje that if "she could pay Blanche for speaking for her Hartje could dc the same"

NEWsBoY ARRESTED.
Four -Year-old Boy Cannot Sell Papers
 as- Under Law

There was quite a commotion among the newsboys who frequent the corner of Chapel and Church streets yesterday evening when one of their number, lit- tie four-year-old Morris Leibman was arrested for unlawful selling of news- papers. There is law which prohibits boys under ten years of age from sell ing newspapers. Little Morris is very small even for his age, and consequent ly a warrant was sworn out for his ar- rest.
 At one time it seemed that he must spend the night at the Organized Char ities, but his father learned of his plight and had him bailed out. The father Simon Leibman, will appear before the court this morning to answer the charge of permitting him to sell papers unlawfully.

"LEW" DOCKSTADER.
MINSTREL COMPANY PLAYS TO
 CROWDED THEATER.

Verdict of the Audience--SOngs,
 Dancing, Music and Wit of the High
 est Order-The Various Artists Re-
 peatedIy Encored-Beautiful Stage
 Settings,
 Better than ever," was the unani- nous verdict of the crowded house that witnessed Lew Dockstader and his band of minstrels at the New Haven theater last night. That the standing room sign should be displayed in New Ha- ven theater in the month of July seems almost incredible, yet such was the case last night. To get together such a crowd at this time of the season and to hold 1t from the rise of the curtain in the Palace of Emeralds' until it dropped at the close of the beautiful Alabama picture, Moon Love" was a feat that MT, Dockstader and his troupe are to be congratulated upon and speaks volumes for the high-class and pleasing nature of their entertainment. The company presented by MT. Dock stader was a banner one. From the boss down they were all stars in their own particular line, while their singing, dancing and witticisms were of the highest order and brought forth repeat ed curtain calls.
 John King. John Dove, Neil O'Brien, Eddie Leonard and Tommy Hyde did splendid work and their efforts were heartily applauded. Lew Dockstader, as the Editor" made quite a hit and his reference to things locally caused considerable amusement. The Hot Air Subway also caused much fun and Is very clever skit. The scenery and stage settings were unusually fine. The Palace of Emeralds," "The Animated Corn Field, Dixie Land" and Moon Love" were among the best ever seen in New Haven.
 The show all through is one of the best of it's kind that has ever been seen here, and we predict most successful season for Lew Dockstader and his eX- cellent company.

A great many breeders fail TO achieve
the results at which they aim simply
because Of their reluctance TO discard
an occasional animal which contains
a slight hlenish. Wanting the best
they use what they know is not PER
ect to produce it, hoping Nature will
kindly gloss over and not reproduce
the defect. SUCH a policy is suicidal.
The breeder who would enjoy the
highest success must not be afraid to
Gull. Let every animal which can not
be rated as arst-c'ass ana strictly SO,
be matu~ad and sold. Breed from only
the best and On no condition CT con-
