grabbed for the lines and got only one.

young lady, Miss Belle Sylvester. had her
leg broken above the knee and the driver.

.CLOTH|ER Wins
TITLE WITH EASE
His Victory Over Beals c,
Wright One OF Tennis Sur
priSeS of Year.

Newport. II. l., Aug. 2s.-The ease with
which William J. Clothier of Philadel-
phia won the National Lawn Tennis
championship from Beals c. Wright OF
Boston, last years title holder, on the
Casino courts today, was one of the sur
prises OF the tennis year. A victory for
Wright, or at least a hard fought con-
test, was anticipated, but that Clothier
should win in straight sets, CD, so, ct.
was beyond the calculations of even the
closest followers Of the sport.
Wrights playing was 90 per cent below
the form shown on the same court las
year, when he won the title from Hol-
combe Ward. On the other hand, Clo-
thier displayed a we'll balanced game
carefully planned and skilfully executed
At the net ne was like a stone wall,
against which Wright hammered i'm vain,
urable TO either go around or over H.
Had Wright been able TO put the same
force into his returns that he did last year,
the result might have been different,
perhaps or the match extended to four
or five sets.
Clothier's play was entirely for Wright
backhand. He frequently caught the last
years champion off his feet and the ball
struck the court far out of reach The
fact that Clothier scored AZ passes, OF
place shots, 10 10 for Wright, shows al
once the superiority of the new cham
piOn'S game.

SANPETE'S CANDIDATE.

MaDti, Aus. 29.-Parley p. Christensen,
Salt Lakes county attorney was seen
at the office of Attorney w. d. Living
ston this morning laying down something
which is supposed to be in the line of con-
gressional bees which are said to be buzz
zing around him quite extensively He
was introduced to several prominent Re
publicans who had not formerly met the
metropolitan politician, such as newspa-
per men, postmasters, etc, and is said to
have received cordial greeting. AS 10
promises OF support, that is a question
which has not been aired so far, but
gestures and possibly convincing argu-
ment were given extensively, such as
would seem to impress bystanders who
could see the performance from the win

Farley in this section spoken above a
whisper, but il is TO be hoped that the
local paper will give utteranoe this week

success OF Mr., Christensen during his
1t is very likely, however, that if San
pete Republicans are going TO give any
favors TO congressional candidates they
can possibly furnish a candidate OF their
own, and this is possibly the kind of ar
gument that Mr.. Christensen was con-
fronted with at the office of Mr. Living
ston Some OF our Republican friends
here think the chances OF Mr.. Living
ston are possibly as promising for the
nomination as are those of the Salt Lake
man, and ii is not believed that any great
amount OF encouragement was given the
visitor. unless some deal or combination
could be formed which would prove sat
isfactory TO all concerned.
Mr.. Christensen is evidently making a
canvass Of Sanpete county and further
particulars are likely TO be learned q lit
tie later.
