COURT TENNIS.

An English exchange has the following to say
about the coming court tennis championship
tournament in England. in which Jay Gould win
play:
The decision OF Eustace II. Miles the present
court tennis champion of England, to stand
down from competition in the coming Champion
ship tournament, is quite likely due 10 lack
of form as to pressing business engaCements
Out of form he would stand no chance against
young Jay Gould, the American title holder and
probably would rather see his title go by default
than TO be badly beaten by the American chal-
lenger. That Miles is not in the best of form Is
shown by his recent play in the racquet cham
pionships Miles has held the title I'm singles
several times, but put out in the semi
finals this spring by the new champion Evan
y. Noel OF Winchester and Cambridge.

PRoFrssIoNAL BAsEBALL.

In spite of unfavorable conditions. between
seventy thousand and eighty thousand persons
saw the opening games of the National and
American league baseball teams in seven cities
Thursday. In the face of such figures it is
hardly necessary 10 enlarge the wonderful
popularity of the sport or TO waste words in
predicting for the season OF 1907 the success
that even now Is assured. The unfortunate in
cident at the Polo Grounds on Thursday did not
speak well for the sportsmanship of many fol-
lowers of the game in this city. The enthusl-
Rstic and spontaneous welcome accorded the
Giants when they came on the field was nulli-
fed TO large extent by the unseemly actions
of the crowd in surging on the field and endlng
what little chance the home team had 10 pun
out q victory. The Giants were fairly beaten 10
all appearances. but baseball is uncertain, ana
many a game has been pulled out Of the fire IN
the ninth inning. Disappointment over impend-
3ng defeat was no excuse for those who were
responsible for marTing the opening Of the sea-
son with an incipient riot. Fortunately. the
crowd was good natured; but many persons got
q bad impression and went home thoroughly
disgusted, and scenes Of the kind will not make
any friends for baseball. It Is absolutely essen
fial that the grounds be properly policed, and
the New York club has done well in taking
measures to provide protection in the future.
