VETERAN OF TENNIS COURT
eno''shman, Lately Deceased, Played
and Enjoyed tho Game In His
Seventy-thIrd Year.

Mr.. Thomas White. the keeper Of
the royal tennis court ct Hamptoa
Court palace. died Friday In his sev.
enty-fourth year. VIZ. White, who
was the oldest tennis player in Eng
land and probably in the world, was
able to take an active part in the du-
ties up till about si1 months ago.
A native Of Cumberland, MI. White
early learned to play the old game Of
tennis in court at st. James street,
Haymarket, and had taken part in
many notable tennis matches both In
this country and In America. The last
match he played and won was a handi-
cap At Manchester in October, 1892, in
which he had to meet some Of the
best professional opponents of tho
game. On this occasion his son. Al
fred White, who for II years was
keeper of the Duke Of Flies court at
Sheen Lodge. Richmond Park, and
who has played with the king there,
was second to his father In the match.
Thirty years ago Mr.. White was ap-
pointed to be the keeper of the famous
old tennis court at Hampton Court
palace, which IL believed to have
been built by Henry VIII. and In its
time 1t has been the scene of many
an interesting match in which English
and foreign monarchs have taken
part.-London Daily News

Concerning Lovely Woman.


Woman's chief moral blemish." &C.
cording to Professor Zueblin, 10 cir
cumlocution." We are indebted to the
professor for so lucid an explanation.
We had never been able to understand
before just what was the matter. The
synonyms Of circumlocution are vari-
GUS; for instance, diffuseness, peri
pharsis, pleoniasm, prolixity, tautol-
ogy, all of which means indirect and
roundabout expression. or the use of
many words where few would suffice.
SO the women have high sociological
authority for knowing just what they
are. OF course, we cannot adopt this
heartless analysis. but our opinion is
neither here nor there on so i'm
portant a matter. 1t is the professor
that speaks, and If there is any con-
troversy it is with him and not with
VI. But the professors use of this
untoward fact is what makes the OBJ
servation significant. He says the
cure OF this blemish, as he calls it. is
woman suffrage; that is, II she wants
to escape the sad ordeal of beating
around the bush she should 60 into

Why the Worm Turned.

Mile. Clare de Pratz, who is also known
In England a. q novelist, was telling
the other day Why she became a femin-
Int In the first instance. 1t appears
that when the men students at the
Solbonne realized that women not only
could compete with them but could
beat them. they were annoyed and
when on one years list three women's
names came out on top the authorities
decided that in future two lists must
b published. one for men and one for
women In that way no comparisons

HOUSES BUILT IN CIRCLE
Architect o. eusnos Ayres Has
Evolved New Idea Which Seems
to Possess Attractions.

Buenos Ayres has an architect In
Prot. Pierre Roveda, who has devised
special plan for building whole dis-
tricts Of houses for the workinkman.
Instead of erecting the houses on tho
ordinary square block Professor Ro.
veda has used q circle which has 4
diameter Of from 100 to 100 yards,
This circle Of ground IL divided into
ninety-nine radial lots converging to q
center. The circle Is concentrically
divided to form an interior avenue
four yards broad to allow communi.
cation with the center Of the circle,
Each avenue leads to external side.
walks and to longitudinal and trans
verse streets.
In the center of the circle is a plot
of forty yards in diameter where chill
dren may be left to themselves with
out their parents care, in charge of 4
specially designated person. In this
garden a playroom. a school, a hos
pital. fire station and an administra-
ton room are to be found.
Naturally this circular plot of
ground leaves free four corners. In
each Of these four corners the profess
sor proposes to build four chalets,
such as grocery shops, dairies, haber-
dasheries and the like, which are in
tended to be carried on In a co-opera-
tive way. In each of the ninety-nine
radial plots a workingman's house is
to be erected on the English plan.
Prof. Roveda argues for his circular
arrangement that it will give continu-
Gus sunshine at all hours OF the day
and plenty of light and air.

PROTECT new ZEALAND BIRDS
stringent Laws Found Necessary r
Any Are to Be saved-kiljsd
by Imported Vermin.

Nearly every native bird In New
Zealand will be absolutely protected
~ law this year. The animals pro.
lection act provides that 1910 and
every third year after that may at the
discretion Of the governor In coun.
Gil be declared closed season for
native game. The absence of bird
life IN New Zealand is already most
noticeable. T. Mackenzie. 4 member
OF the government, az the result Of 4
recent journey through the country.
writes:
Between Nelson and Hokitika
hardly any bird life at all IL to be
met with; the imported vermin have
done their work Of bird destruction
only too we'll. In the region from
Ross to the south, however, tho tut
and the pigeon are to be seen mak1n1
bright the landscape with their pres.
ence.
AT tho Forks I met a gentleman
who took . great interest In bird life
on tho coast, and he told me that tho
weka, kiwi and kawakawa had disap-
peared. and he believed that tho
stoats and weasels killed every bird
In the country. He had himself 1ust
lost half grown black swan which
he had reared. He had found it lying
on its back with a cash in its throat.
THE stoats and weasels were often
seen in the neighborhood Of the lakes
where the ducks made their nests. and
it was suspected that the vermin paid
due attention to their eyes,"

HOOKED TROUT; LANDED COW
Humorous Happening to English DE-

with the result that the reel imme-
d1ately began to whirr.
The angler. with galvanic sudden
ness, Jumped back and struck. His
unexpected maneuver. however, star
tied the COW, with the result that she
snpped and with a somersault and
neartrending "Moo!" fell with 4
mighty splash into the pool beneath.
Inc rod was struck from the
anglers hand and after 4 few SPAS
