Women on the Courts


The womens singles was started ut
noon. and it was conducted as a handi-
cap event. This assures much better
sport in the event, as Miss Florence
Sutton and her sister, Mrs. Bruce,
would have otherwise conducted il
largely as a family affair. Miss
Miriam Edwards of Santa Barbara is
also entered and as she played beau
tiful game in the mixed doubles and
has been given fair sized handicap,
the Suttons will have to fight for their
laurels. The. drawings for the event
were as follows: Miss Hutton Gre
ceive " 800 a bye; Miss F. Sutton
(owe 15) VS.. Miss Early (receive 15) !;
Miss Conger (receive " 800 VS.. Mrs.
Bruce (owe Y 15); Miss Edwards Ore
ceive u 15) a bye.
The finals of mems singles were
called at 2 o'clock. Ralph Noble sus-
tained the record he has made in the
entire tournament by forcing Braly
to two-duece sets. 1t was almost
cruelty to make him play, as he had
already played in three hard matches.
Braly, while playing in the upper half
of the tournament. had easy drawing.
Florence Sutton won from Miss Hut
ton in spite Of the extremely heavy
handicap and as usual in the finals
two members of the Sutton family
were opposed to each other.
By far the best match in the junior
singles was that between Gabriel and
McAndrew, the former winning after
three close sets.
The defeat of Wayne and Noble at
the hands Of Cassell and Gowan was
largely due to the exhausted condition
of Noble but the match brought out
some good tennis.
The challenge match between Braly
and Spaulding will take place tomor-
row at 1870. The finals of doubles will
follow. The finals of other events will
probably be run through in the morn
ing.

LAY EGGS WITHHANDLES
Jersey Man EUoLUes Race of Edu-
Gated and Obiging Hens.

Orange. N. J.. March II (SpeciaD-Robert E.
Foster. jr Of Newton. Sussex County has il is
reported here. succeeded in cultivating a race Of
chickens which produce eggs already fitted with
handles for convenience In eating them. One
exhibited to-day was taken from the nest of
white Leghorn hen. It is normal in size and
general appearance except that on the smaller
end there is a continuance Of the shell forma-
ton, measuring half inch at its base. taper
ing for nearly two inches and ending in two
points which resemble the tail Of a fish.
The form of the excrescence is curve, the
smaller end resting the middle of the shell
of the egg and having a perfect resemblance to
the handle Of a teacup. The opposite side Of the
eggshell is fattened so that the structure will
stand alone The hens have laid seven eggs Of
similar conformation. each furnished with a we'll
defined handle.
Mr.. Foster has devoted large portion Of his
life TO a series Of experiments in the cross-fer-
tilization Of flowers and fruits The egg with
handle is a direct result of his experiments in
superinduced evolution
Several weeks ago while breaking an egg
at the breakfast table he conceived the idea
that an eggshell with a handle. which would
form fits own cup, would not only save lots of
dishwashing but would be at once a scientific
and culinary triumph. Thereupon he caused
the inside of the building where the hens are
conilne0 during me winter TO be painted white.
Food was taken to the hens In large white yes
sells. each having handle. Water was fur
nished in similar vessels Of a smaller size
Across the single window white teacups were
suspended on strings. No other furnishings Of
any other shape were permitted to be around the
buildings The hens nightly sung to sleep
TO the tune of drinking songs. Within ten days
many of the eggs had slight excrescences on one
end and after two weeks the new eggs had
definitely formed handles,
one notable incident apparently facilitated
the experiment. Mr. Foster has large white
rooster which two weeks since escaped from
his coop into neighhor's yard. The neighbors
small son chased the rooster home and threw at
him a broken white pitcher which had large
and conspicuous handle. The rooster was much
frightened, and the hens witnessed the occur
renee.
From that time there was a rapid develop
ment of handles each successive laying OF
eggs. until the present almost perfect form was
attained. The naturalist believed that fright
and nervous shock accelerated the growth Of the
handles.
When the home market is supplied with the
new and valuable acquisition Mr.. Foster pur-
poses TO place some of the developed eggs under
Il hen. The result viii he awaited with eager
and scientific interest
