And blues and blues, from which to

Who knows not grief, and merely

Conscious DURING a Fall.

Every time a workman falls from a
forty story building there are people
to say, ''Well, he probably didn't feel
it when he struck" There is little or
no basis for this belief that person
is dead or unconscious at the end Of a
long fall. Our surviving jumpers from
Brooklyn bridge prove this, and that
person retains consciousness is
shown by the case of the English boy
who fell down pit some $50 feet deep
and shouted Below three times on
the way down. One theory is that a
person falling would not be able to
breathe, but a train at sixty miles an
hour is moving faster than one would
move in falling a hundred or so feet.
and no one pretends that one would
die of suffocation If he put his head
out the train MISUNDERSTANDING.

VENTURA. April 23.-The sensation
Of the day al the Nordhoff tennis tourn-
ament which has been on here for
three days was the defeat this after
noon Of May Sutton. worlds woman
champion. at the hands of Miss Hazel
Hotchkiss of Berkeley. The score at
the finish was IS. g.. 60.
The day was beautiful one and both
players were in excellent form. The
champion. who had been winning in her
usual handy way every match she en-
tered, went into the game with the
little northeTner with her usual con-
fldence. and put her well known vim
into her games. taking handily the first
set. and everybody settled down with
the expectation of seeing the same old
victory passed up 10 her.
1t was noted that Miss Hotchkiss
played strong and with care never
losing her head or showing any fear
of the champion. She started off with
lead in the second set and was as
steady as q clock. She was not once
overtaken and outplayed Miss Sutton
at every turn.
The latter made desperate efforts to
overcome her opponents lead, but was
not able to do so, and not being able

little Of her accustomed tennis nerve
In the last set she could not connect
with the ball where she wanted to.
and the Berkeley girl. making perfect
every drive, lob and volley, did not
allow the champion to secure a single
game.
Miss Sutton, who has never before
been defeated by woman in this coun-
try, took her defeat good naturally and
with philosophy, saying that she had at
last met her match. AS the Nordhon
courts are not record courts. Miss SUIT
ton loses none of the titles which she
has earned.

one tied. Chico emerged today the
victor in the fifth annual inter

the Stanford oval with a score OF II
points to its credit Until after the

the crowd OF Oakland rooters, the
only organized roofing section at the
meet, knew no bounds. Had they
succeeded in obtaining hrst and sec

would have resulted IN tie; but in
spite OF all their efforts the coveted
point for first place went to Gibson

The meet was remarkable in more
ways than one The fact that eight

sufficient TO distinguish it. but it was
also remarkable for the fact that Of
