eral surprises marked the fourth day

date for final honors, was easily put
out of the running by A. Gorrill OF
Oakland, Cal. In the mems doubles,
Tyler and Rhodes, who were believed
strong enough to win the champion
ship were eliminated by Breeze and
Gorrill in one of the prettiest matches
of the tournament.

How to Tran . Flea.

That the flea is elusive Is proverbial: but that the Bureau of Entomology of the Department of Agriculture in Washington has hit upon plan to cir cumvent the irritating little insect Is not generally known. According to Van Norden-The World Mirror. for April, the Government has discovered a method by which any housekeeper may rid herself of visitation within a very short time.
 Fill a glass three-fourths with wa ter. on top of which pour about an inch of olive oil. then place night float Ga little wick inserted in a card board disk or in cork disc) in the center of the oil. Place the tumbler in the center of a soup plate filled with strong soapsuds. The wick should be lighted at night on retiring. or may be used in any dark room. As the p-plate-soapsuds trap Is placed on the floor of the room it does not in terfere with the sleeper. and the fieas are attracted to the light For out buildings, such as barns. ietc, large milk pan may be used. and instead of using olive oil and a glass. a astable lantern may be placed in the center of the pan, while Instead of soapsuds a scum of kerosene may be put on the water in the milk pan.
 This method, it is said, will rid a house of the pests in a few nights.

 If the orchestra were simply a rag ged makeshift, the explanation of the indifference in some quarters would be easy. Since 1t Is dignified body of fifty salaried professionals, run on business basis and conducted by q leader of proved ability, the reason is not clear.
 It Is the history of all orchestras. 1t must be acknowledged. that the early life Is one of fighting for audiences. That was true in Chicago, Boston. St. houis. Cincinnati. But the. audiences eventually became great, hungertng throngs When. like citizens else- where, Louisville people generally have acquired the fixed habit of attending the coneefts-in most cities Sunday afternoon is the established and favor, ite time for such events-they twill look back in humiliation at the pres ent and regret their early indinerence. Some are already in the habit and are grateful for the chance, as they sit re- yelling in good music. The others will acquire the habit. too. They simply do not realize right now what is with in their reach, and what they are miss ing. By the end of another year they will realize 1t and then they will not wish ever to give the orchestra up.

every night. while the churches are mostly empty on Sundays. Eugene Camp. in a recent address, suggested remedy, which seems rather illogical. He proposes to establish, in addition to the existing large churches. small church in every block of the city. He suggested to rent vacant stores or even that purpose. The plan is not meeting with enthusiastic approval It Is ar- gued that If the large churches. which oner good sermons. good music and impressive services, do not attract crowds. 1t was reasonable to assume that the small and naturally primitive churches would prove even more . fail- ure in attracting Sworshippers.
 A few days ago the manager of the Three Twins" company. playing at the Majestic Theatre. inserted an adver- tisement in the papers. calling for cho- rus girls weighing 900 pounds and more. He would have been less rash about publishing such an advertise ment had he known beforehand what the result would be. The applicants door of the theatre at : o'clock in the afternoon. As early as 2 o'clock. the sidewalk in front of the stage door was completely blocked by tons of solid flesh. The policeman on guard at the stage door tried to keep the pas sage open. but was ignominously crowded into a corner and had to call for help. When the manager of the show looked out through a crack In the door and saw the heavyweight brigade. he summoned all of his stage hands to the door and ordered them to prevent more than one of the appb- cants at a time entering.
 But this precaution prove ineffective. As soon as the door was opened wide to allow the first applicant to squeeze through. the others made a wild dash and In a few minutes 45.000 pounds of fat women held down the boards of the stage. The manager, fearing that the stage would give way under the tre- mendous weight. politely requested the fairies to take seats in the parquet. but only a few of them were able to wedge themselves between the arm rests of the seats. The, three appli- cants finally selected. weighed respect lively 1885, 2s0 and 230 pounds. The re- jected ones took the matter good na- turedly and seemed contented when each was presented with free ticket.
