GRAND CIRCUIT AT DETROIT
Real Harness Races of season VIII
start Next Week.

DETROIT. July lS-The real harness rae
ing OF the season will begin here the week
Of July p. when the grand circuit opens.
Horsemen from the Pacific to the Atlantic
and from the gulf to Canada have for
months been carefully training their trot-
tiers and PAGERS for this event and have
culled out the no accounts and selected the
horses that in their estimation will be
worth racing. The Detroit stakes and
purses for the five days Of the meeting foot
up $1,000. II is estimated that there are
more good horses in training this year than
last and that insures a splendid entry. The
NJ. and NJ. and Chamber OF Commerce
stakes have exceptional fields, while the
2a1 stake Is one OF the sensations Of the
year and the 2O7 pace Is a great feature.

Lincoln have been nip and tuck with an
uncertainty as to the outcome until the
finish. Ragan has been able to beat Bonno
twice, but the other Omaha pitchers have
been an uncertain quantity against Lincoln.
Sanders pitched a magnificent game in
Omaha and beat Jones in a pitchers battle.
The same two met at Lincoln. Thursday,
but lack Of support gave Lincoln five runs
in one inning which was sufficient to win
the game. This uncertainty as to the re-
suit makes great interest In the sport.

CITY TENNIS STARTS WELL
Tournament Opens Auspiciously at
the Field Club.
MANY CRACK PLAYERS ARE IN
Nearly All Matches In the Prelimi-
nary Round Are Played on and
Five Games in First
Round.

The city tennis tournament was given an
suspicious opening Saturday afternoon at
the Omaha Field club courts, when nearly
all the matches in the preliminary round
were played off and five games In the first
round were disposed of. While the entry
list is not as large as the tennis commit
tee of the Field club in charge Of the
tournament would have wished, many good
players are entered and many players from
without the membership of the Field club.
For several years the Omaha Field club
has been acting as host for the city tennis
tournament and has done everything pos
sible to encourage the ancient game of ten
mis-. which still holds it's place among the
leading sports of the country, The locker
room at the club is turned over to the use
Of the visitors and everything possible done
to make the visitors feel at home. 1t so
happens that most of the leading tennis
players of Omaha belong to the Field club,
especially those players who have been at
the game a few years. This is so because
the leading tennis men were among the
founders of the Field club.
Host for Middle West.
Not only does the Field club act as host
for the city tournament, but also for the
Middle West tournament, an annual fix
ture for the Field club. This event is rec
ognized by the United States Lawn Tennis
association, and the championship awarded
at the meet is recognized as one of the
leading tennis honors of the year. The
seven courts at the Field club are of clay
and very fast. The game on the clay court
is entirely different from that played or
sou, and for this reason the directors OF
the Field club tried to have the national
association give the winner of the Middle
West tournament the title of clay court
champion. For some reason the easterners
who dominated the national association die
not see their way clear to grant this re
quest, so the winner still takes the title o.
middle west champion.
There are no finer courts in the country
than those Of the Omaha Field club. Foi
several years experiments were made b!
the committee in getting perfect ella!
courts. 1t is no longer an experiment, bu
a certainty that the courts will be in fin,
condition. They have been so constructed
that they dry quickly after a rain and ar,
always in fine shape.
A large gallery watched the play satur
day afternoon and applauded the bette
plays. More interest will be shown, how
ever, as the tournament progresses and tn
weaker players are weeded out. Consider
able interest attached to the game betwee,

1.-THE strain of the all-week contest better
tthan his opponent, who played a plucky up
/ hill game. Friday Allen had won in the
! semi-finals without getting the long end
of the score until the eighteenth hole.
I Today he was never better than even up,
{ which was the stage at the twentieth hole.
After that Phelps stronger game brought
. the match to an early finish. and the Mid
lothian entrant was the champion. The
Midlothian club now has the professional
or open championship, which Fred Nc
: Leod won at Kansas City a fortnight ago,
land the amateur championship. It sent
seven players to the tournament here,
I and nearly all were among the thirty-two
qualifiers.
! The morning round was marked by more
ragged playing. Allen especially having a
prediction for bunkers and side traps,
while Phelps had a penchant for slicing or
pulling to the rough, or to difficult lies
among the trees. A high west wind blew
and Il was too cool for classy golf. Phelps

Both had become involved in the bunkers
on the second. which they halved in T.
The fourth and fifth were halved. Driving

while a lucky bound took Phelps over the
7 corner of the bunker. Aliens third took
him dead to the hole, and he went down
in 4, one under DOGGY, a fine recovery after
a poor driveA Allen side-trapped his iron
shot on the seventh, but p~itched-the ball
onto the green with a pretty third. Phelps
was already there, and holed out in 4, again
2 up. They halved the next five holes,
turning with Phelps 2 up. He made it 3
up on the thirteenth, a 4O3-yard link, land
ing on the green with his midiron and
holing out in 4, l under DOGGY.
Allen steadied and went down in 3 on
the fourteenth, halved the barracks and
hill holes, and won the seventeenth with a

great drives carried them across the road
and close to the home green. Phelps APP
