and uphill fight Saturday wrested the

champion, had only to meet the winner
OF the preliminary games.

Interclass Meet.

Orono Me, May 5.-(SpcciaD.- 1.-The Uni
vcrsity of Maine track team was defeated
Saturday by Massachusetts School of
Technology by the score of Sc to 40. The
weather conditions looked anything but
favorable during Saturday morning and
by noon it began to rain, with the result
that by the time the first event was call
ed, which was at . o'clock, the track was
in a very poor condition. Although the
rain continued all the afternoon large
and interested audience witnessed the
events. In spite of the fact that Boston
Tech won by so large score, there were
but ore or two events in which the Mass
achusetts boys had all their own way.
All of the others were nip and tuck to
the finish. In spite of the unfavOrable
conditions for a track meet, there were
two records broken. f. Z. Fortier of the
Freshman class of the University of
Maine made a new record of f55 Is min
utes for the mile, and M. f. McGregor OF

London, May 5.-Eustis Miles, who
yesterday LOST the court tennis cham
piGnship to Jay Gould, attributed his
defeat TO having to wait While Mr..
Gould was suffering from a cramp in
the wrist. In a signed article in the
Daily Graphic this morning Mr.. Miles
says:
st was the closest match | have ever
PLAYED. Gould deserved to win and l
never felt less regret at being beaten
With reference to getting out of his
swing and being cold While his oppo-
nent's arm was being massaged, he
says:
at is one of my weaknesses that
when l have stopped and grown cold l
can hardly ever recover my form.
made every effort, but | had lost my
swing"
Miles admits one grevious weakness,
that he starts slow; he can last well,
but cannot begin we'll. He says he was
fiji for another set or two when Gould
was done for He thinks Gould'S only
danger is in overtaXing his strength by
such feats of endurance, but says Gould
is a master of nearly the whole mech
anism of tennis. at is true his back
hand strokes are still rather insecure,
ard his tendency is to hit an easy ser
wee into the net: but these are trivial
faults for one Of his years.

PRESBYTERIAN ENGAGEMENT.
State Gathering at Kcrrville Has
Fine Offerings.

State Gathering at Kcrrville Has
Fine Offerings.
Special TO Daily Panhandle.
Kerrville, Texas, June 25,--The
second annual Texas Presbyterian
encampment will open at the assem-
bly, grounds, near Kerrville, July 8,
and will continue until July 25. The
success OF the encampment last year,
which was its first, demonstrated to
those in charge that there is a wide
spread demand among the Presby-
terians Of Texas for summer en-
campmont and assembly and they
have enlarged their plans this year
feeling certain that the attendance
will be much larger than last.
The camp grounds, lie on a high
plateau a mile south of Kerryille,
and between the mountains which
enclose the valley OF the Guadalupe,
which flows along one side OF the
grounds. The site is a beautiful one.
The river affords splendid opportu-
mites for fishing and bathing. The
tract is well wooded, so there is no
lack Of shade. Water is piped to the
ground with hydrants convenient to
every tent There is a very large
and substantial dining hall which
will seat about 800 persons, and ar
rangements will be made for large
assembly hail.
The expenses OF the season Mt
the encampment has been reduced
to a minimum. Campers may either
eat at the dining hall, where the
charges are very reasonable, or they
may do theft own cooking. Tents
will be rented for a nominal charge
Special attention has been paid
this year to the arrangement Of the
program, and the committee has
been at considerable pains to secure
the best talent for the various as
sembly features.
The railroads have granted the
regular convention rate. Tickets arr
sold to Westminster" and not t
Kerrville. Westminster is the sta
ton on the assembly grounds, and
baggage can be checked direct. Mai
should be addressed to "Westmin'
ster" Station. Kerrville, Texas. This
is sub-postoffice Of Kerrville. Rev
Hung w. HoOn, or San Antonio, Tex
as, will furnish any information de,

(From Tuesdays Daily)
]. T. Fox, who has been with the
Rock Island at Fort Worth and other
places in various capacities as office
man, can boast the distinction of be-
ing the smallest business man in the
country. He is here now on bust
ness and to visit friends in Amarillo
and yesterday and today he has been
ths object of many wondering
glances from people who have seen
him. In stature and proportions he
looks to be boy of II or IL years
of age but his expression and bear
ing belle his small bulk.
Mr.. Fox is forty-six inches high,
81 years Of age and weighs only fifty
seven pounds. In spite OF his small
size, however, Mr., Fox is a business
man of proven ability and ready self
reliance. He is well proportioned
and save for the fact that his face Is
older than one would expect in per-
son of his size, there is nothing un-
usual in his appearance. He is well
educated, is a wide reader and is a
close observer. He Is a member In
good standing of the Odd Fellows,
enjoys the friendship of men in all
parts OF the state, and is a welcome
visitor wherever he goes
Mr.. Fox has many times been
sought by show people to sign con-
tracts for exhibition purposes and
he has been offered sums which
guaranteed an easy living and big
remuneration but he has uniformly
refused them He says that he is
thoroughly able to make his own
living and that he prefers to do so.

OF EQUALIZATION
(From tuesdays DallyN

AT a special executive session this
morning the city council appointed in
place of the old city board of equal
ization, II. B. Jones, r. H. Meal
pine and C. F. Randall. The board
last year which had been reappointed
this year was composed of II. B..
Jones, C. NJ. Hardin and Lee Bivins,
The new board will be sworn in to-
day and will go to work at once on
the city tax rolls.
Another matter came up for con-
sideration this morning in the objec-
ton voiced by the aldermen to the
number Of street fakirs and peddlers
who are doing business at stands on
the states. Alderman Thompson
called attention to the fact that
such merchants paid no taxes, and
no rent and at the same time COM
peted with established merchants
who are Obliged to pay high fixed
rents, taxes and other similar ex-
penses. He advised an ordinance
clearing the street of these dealers or
else an arrangement whereby they
could be made to pay fair tax and
be subject to regulation. Dad"
the old proprietor of the candy pal
ance" on the Amarillo Bank & Trust
corner, appeared before the council
and asked a formal privilege to do
business on the corner subject to
proper regulations for this privilege,
he offered to pay for two streets
crossings every year. The price OF
two street crossings would be $3.50,
After further discussion, this prop
osition met with approval and It is
likely that some such arrangement
will be reached In regard to all deal
ers who take up stands on the street,

Associated Press.
Denver, Colo, June 25.-The cri-
sis in the fight against acting Pres
ident c. Il. Mahoney, Of the Western
Federation Of Miners was reached
today when the clause of his report
in regard to the Industrial Workers
of the World was taken up in the
Federation convention. Vincent st.
John led the attack upon the acting
president. 1t is conceded that the
fight is an incident in the struggle
for control Of the federation by the
socialist party. Acting President
Mahoney and acting secretary j. Kir-
win have the support Of President
Charles H. Meyer in the fight which
had disrupted the Industrial Workers
of the World and threatens to do
the same for the Federation. This
was indicated today by letter from
Meyer unfolding the position taken
by Mahoney and Kirwin. The de-
bate will last at least two and prob
ably three days longer
