everyone will be glad to see the game
old Marathon winner competing at
the heel-and-toe game. He has no
style as a walker, but gets over the
ground all the same In quick time.
His short stride Is compensated for
by the rapidity with which he lifts
his feet.
Numerous letters have reached
this Office with reference to the frst
suggested idea Of starting the walk
ing races at 1880 o'clock. Not one
of the writer's could see any good In
the scheme Of starting SO early in
the afternoon. However, they will
all be pleased now, as the hour has
been altered to 2:30 for the open
walking race. and that will give
everybody a chance to see It and
then go down to the baseball game.
There will be four starters in
the heavyweight race. and they are
Bob Ingersoll. Willie Marshall, Ed
Marine and webb. In the veteran
race Kalbe and John voris will be
the only starters, but the pair should
put up a good contest.
There are plenty of prizes for all
the events. and as only ten men are
starting In the main race every
walker will yet two prizes, and that
is going some for sure.

Wall Cup Nearing
Seni.finaI Stage

At the Beretania tennis courts
yesterday afternoon some exciting
and good racquet work was done by
two pairs of players. Bockus and
Castle had two rafting good sets,
and. although the latter player
won two sets straight, Ga, 6-3, the
play was closer than the score would
indicate.
During the two sets nearly every
game got to deuce and the vantage
in" and vantage out" was called
many times during the match.
Bockus made some fine strokes. and
his serve was especially strong; his
yolleying was very clean and crisp
ond he did remarkably well.
Castle played his usual heady
game and showed a good. all-around
knowledge of the sport by defeat
ing a player Of Bockus's caliber.
The Deerr-Rietow match. which
had TO be discontinued owing to the
light failing on the previous day.
was finished yesterday, and II, too,
provided a close game. DEER won
QUE. Ca. Ga. but only after some
good rallies.
There were quite a number OF
spectators present, and the play was
watched with the greatest interest.
Thr Bockus- Castle match stirred M
lot of excitement, and the APP
plausc was given fmpartially to
either man as he made good
lstrokc.
| This afternoon the scmi'finnlS
will be played. and Clark will meet
Castle. and DEER and Low will see
who Is the better man. Both the
matches promise to be good ones, and
the two winners will have to play
off to sec who will have the honor
of tackling T. S. Gee, the present
holder of the cup. for the much
coveted trophy.
The Wall cup was in the hands
OF W. l.. Warren, who won II
twice, when Gee arrived in the Is
lands. The Manila player then took
the cup, and II he should win out
this time he. too, will have two legs
In Tor the prize.
Warren is away on the mainland
and Il Is uncertain II he will return
to the Islands. In that case Gee. In
the event of winning the present
tournament, would stand a very good
chance of getting the cup. which Il
played for every six months. into
his possession for all time.

Unable to Kneel.

One fancies that few types Of men
can from time to time have afforded
royalty more amusement Of a quiet
sort than provincial mayors Of Eng
land. From the Foreland to Pen
zance." by Give Holland. contains the
story of a mayor of Weymouth who
during one Of the visits of King George
to the town was destined to afford
"comic relief" to a ceremony of some
Importance. The occasion was the
presentation of an address Of welcome
to the king. and we are told that the
mayor on approaching to present it. to
the establishment and dismay Of all,
instead of kneeling. as he had been
told to do, seized the queens hand
to shake it as he might that ,of any
other lady. Colonel Gwynne. the mas
ter of the ceremonies. hurriedly told
him of the faux pas, saying. You
should have kneeled. sir
Sir | cannot" was the reply.
Everybody does, sir" holly asserted
| the colonel
The mayor grew red and. evidently
much upset, exclaimed. 'Confound it.
| sir, but I've got wooden leg!'
History records that "a smile suf-
fused the face of her majesty, and the
! king laughed outright"
! The SorrowfuI Tree.
There is a tree in Persia to which
the name 1.-The sOrrowful tree" is CIV
en-, perhaps because it blooms only in
the evening. When the first star ap
pears in the heavens. the first bud of
the sorrowful tree opens, and as the
shades of night advance and the stars
thickly stud the sky the buds continue
gradually opening until the whole tree
looks like one immense white flower.
On the approach Of dawn. when the
brilliancy of the stars gradually fades
in the light of day. the sorrOwful tree
closes its flowers, and ere the sun is
fully risen not a single blossom is
visible. A sheet of flower dust as
white as snow covers the ground
around the foot of the tree. which
seems blighted and withered during
the day, while. however.>i is actively
preparing for the next nocturnal festi-
val The fragrance of the blossoms is
like that Of the evening primrose. If
the tree is cut down close to the roots
a new plant shoots up and attains ma
turity in an incredibly short time. In
the vicinity of this singular tree there
Usually grows another. which is almost
an exact counterpart of the sorrowful
tree. but less beautiful. and. strange
to say. it blooms only in the daytime.
How to Hang TabIecIoths.
Tablecloths if hung properly-are
much easier to iron than if they are
hung carelessly. The proper way to
hang tableclcths is to fold the hem
ends together and hang them on the
line with pins close together. When
the cloth is taken from the line il
should be folded carefully, so that it
will not have any of those great Iona
creases that it is sure to have it
thrown carelessly into the basket If
, these simple precautions are taken the
tablecloth will iron easier and will
look much better.
