OVER
TENNIS DEFEAT

By United Press Leased Special Wire
LONDON, May 2s.-Comments Of
English sporting people shows that
they are in both an amused and bored
frame of mind over the action Of Mrs
Eustace Miles in coming to the defense
of her husband for the trimming he
received at the hands of young jay
Gould, the court tennis champion.
They are amused at the novelty of
Mrs. Miles action; but they are bored
for fear that her lament will tend to
lead Americans to the belief that the
British are poor losers. When Miles
W. defeated by Could two weeks ago
the English champion come out with
an apology for his defeat that was
wonderfully amusing. 1t was to the
effect that he did not hit the ball quite
accurately, while his youthful Ameri-
.can opponent did. English sportsmen
"a few at least-regretted the state
'ment.
After the second defeat Miles turned
the job Of making excuses over to his
wife. who has hastened into print with
the declaration that her husband
should be respected for his past per-
'formances: that he is just, as good a
player as ever, but that business cares
prevent his constant practice.
American athletes have trimmed
their English cousins in so many fields
of endeavor that the truth is the Eng
lish are a bit sore.

OPIUM POPULAR WITH
SMART SET, He SAYS

SAN FRANCISCO. May 2s.-According
TO Charles b. Whilden. secretary of the
State Board Of Pharmacy. opium smok-
ing is Increasing in this city and young
men and women Of the smart set form a
not inconsiderable part Of the growing
army of smokers.
Whilden has been active in crusade
against sellers of opium since April 6.
when the State Board of Pharmacy began
to make arrests Of violators Of the poison
law, which was passed at the last ses.
sion Of the Legislature. In this time
Whilden has made twenty-six arrests in
San Francisco. nineteen of whom have
been white men.
That the vice OF opium smoking IS
spreading in San Francisco is potent "a
airy one who cares to give the matter
earnest attention" says Mr. whildcn.
In the majority Of cases where druggists
have been convicted for selling the drug
their chief source of income has been de-
rived from women who are able TO drive
up TO pharmacies in their own automo.

UNION LEAGUE TO
FINISH SEASON
will Continue to Play With
Six TeamS--.Change of
Schedule

That Wilmington has thrown up the
srorge and Baltimore is disrupted, does
not mean the disintegration of the Union
League which has resolved to play out
the season with six clubs. Baltimore sus-
pended itself from the league by a failur,
to keep its scheduled dates but President
King denies that the club has broken uT
despite reports to the contrary and Man,
ager Kennedy was reported yesterday az
having the team together and would fdlhl
tie remaining dates. Until, however, the
team has been reinstated. there Is little
likelihood that Baltimore will play be-
tore a meeting has Been called by Presi-
dent Lawson.
The dropping out Of Baltimore and Will
mington will necessitate some rearrange-
ment of the schedule. The games sched-
tied to be played in Philadelphia on Fri
DAY and Saturday have been transferred
10 Elizabeth It was uncertain yesterday
when the Philadelphia club will be seen
on the local grounds again after to-day's
game with Washington Wilmington is
scheduled for Monday and Tuesday next
and Reading on Wednesday and Thursday
The latter games will likely be trans
ferred TO Reading and Washington vii
