Can Talk Sometimes
When a jolly-faced man with a fez
bearing the emblem of Islam walked
up to a group of his fellows in the cor
ridor at the King Edward and began
making frantic signs, asked his name.
"Oh, that's DIR. F. r. Woolsey, a
prominent Berkeley physician. The doc
tor rode on the engine from Surf to
Santa Marguerite yesterday and he has
not been able to express an opinion
since. He really is not dumb all the
time. This sign language is only O
necessary measure adopted temporarily.
Women Are Just Dears
Some of the women of the north have
evidently learned the art of effac1ng
themselves when they are not wanted.
A very touching little scene occurred
on the train of the San Francisco dele.
cation on the way down, illustrative or,
this.
1t appears that Fred Wright, P. J.
Walker, AL Merritt, DR.. F. F. jackson
and DR.. F. r. Woolsey, all members
of Islam, formed a party to attend the
shrine. Mrs. Wright, Mrs. walker
etc, etc, also made up their minds
that they would like to form party
and go along.
They consulted their husbands, in
diviGually and collectively, and were
told they might come if they would be
very good and not get in the way. on
the train the women sat in one end OF
the car and played hearts and the men
sat in che other end and played-well,
nobody seems to be quite certain what
it was they played. The women were
good, anyway.

 Another charge against GlaSsford is that all of McCormack's messages to the Alaskan papers, sent in an effort to hold them for his service, were accepted at press rates, while all messages sent by the Scripps people were charged for at full commercial rates. This discrimination was arbi- trarily made by Glassford in his efforts to harass the Scripps News asSocia- tion."

Ganley's cripples and recruits made a
plucky fight for yesterdays game, and

markable piece of good fortune that fell

struggled in vain.
Tha Nationals were the first to score.
After Larry had thrown out AIt.zer in the

way then. Stovall lifted a little pop fly to

SEVERE PACE SET
FOR TENNIS CRACKS

CASINO COURTS, NEWPORT R. L.,
August 23.-After three days of play in the
all-comers' national lawn tennis champion
ship tournament 80 out of the 115 entries
have been eliminated. Only IS remain,
and Of these the upper half contains the
strength Of the contest in William A.
Larned, Clarence Hobart and Frederick
G. Anderson, while In the lower section
remain the flower of the younger aspi-
rants. including Richard H. Palmer who
SO sensationally overwhelmed Karl H.
Behr on the opening day; Nathaniel w.
Niles OF Harvard, and Robert LIE Roy of
Columbia. Those of the second flight in
the top section include Charles M. Bull,
IT,. Herbert L. Westfelt and W. F. John
SON.
From their performances on the courts
Yesterday the veterans have little the best
Of it In the effort to decide the ultimate
winner Of the national laurels this year.
Larned was invincible. He needs but q
victory this year to make the valuable
CASINO bowl, offered in 1890 and on which
ne has two legs, his personal property. It
Is the golden opportunity for Larned, and
ne is making the most of 1t. The one
stumbling block that seems likely to cause
Larned trouble on his way to the cup is
his old rival. Clarence Hobart Hobart
has been trying for the national champion
snip as many years as has Larned. He has
kept on trying, and from his work with
most formidable adversary of Larned. He
defeated II. B. Register of the University
or pennsylvania with amazing ease in
straight sets, the score being q to l. 6 to
and & to love.
Richard H. Palmer is this years sensa-
ton. He bounded into the limelight FRI
day by defeating Clarence Pell, the Harvard
expert, to Q, to B. to and to 4. Today
Palmer will meet Nathaniel w. Miles. the
only Harvard man still in the tournament.
Five colleges are represented this year in
the interscholastic national championship
