court issued warrants for the ar
rest of Wilson and Gregg on a
charge Of contempt of Judgment of
court and the men were brought
to Tonopah on Saturday night and
lodged in Jail The Judge was re-
turned to his home in Goldfield on
the night he ruled in the case.
In court it was decided that Key
Pittman should harvest the hay on
the ground in dispute and stack it
separately from the balance of Ibis
land. There has been quite a
little indignation expressed about
town of the treatment accorded Mr..
Wilson and Mr.. Gregg, and several
have expressed a Willingness to sub
scribe toward a fund to see that
they are not railroaded off the
ground which they claim as a home
stead.
1t is alleged that others have
stated that if Mr. Pittman did take
up this land under the desert land
act that he has periured himself
in swearing that it is land that is
open to this class of entry-which
is arid land
The defendants claim that they
can bring witnesses to swear that
hay has been harvested from this
land for thirty years.
Mr.. Gregg states that there is
native grass on the land in dis
pute that is knee deep, and has a
photograph of the same, showing a
setter deg in the grass, and all
you can see is the back of the ami
MAJ as it is racing through the
grass
Mr.. Gregg also states that the
grass, when harvested. is worth $40
a ton and that on the ground home
steaded by Mr.. Wilson and himself
there are at least $1,000 worth of
hay
The Bonanza has forwarded some
photographs of this arid land for
half-tones to be made of the same.

MYSTERY MAY
never Be KNOWN
GENERAL BIXBY IN CHARGE OF
WORK SAYS SECRET OF EN-
PLOSION is HIDDEN.

TAMPA, Fla, June 27-"The Sc
cret of the destruction of the bat
tleship Maine will never be known, "
said General w. II. Bixby, chief
of engineers in charge of the work
of raising the Maine, on his ar
rival here yesterday from the city
of Havana.
The destruction to the vessel was
such, says General Bixby and the
deterioration has been so great that
it will be impossible to tell wheth-
er the ship was blown up from a
force within or without.
The greatest force, however, was
from the inside, indicating that the
forward magazine had exploded.
Whether this was from a sym,
pathetic explosion caused by a tor
pedo from the outside may forever
remain a mystery.
General Bixby says that unless
the fragment of a torpedo is found
there is no way of connecting some
outside agency with the blowing up
of the vessel.
We do not expect to find any
human remains" said the general.
The crews compartments have
disappeared entirely"

TENNIS CHANGES IN ENGLAND
Lawns Gradually Being Replaced by
Hard Surface Courts in Vogue
EiseWhere-Experi Wins.

GO it, baldhead!" was a cry fire.
uuently heard at the recent lawn ten
mis- tournament at Wimbledon, and
spectator could not help observing
that gray hairs and bald heads out
numbered the locks of youth among
the players after the first day or two.
Yet lawn tennis is an athletic game,
perhaps the most active of all sum-
mer pastimes, demanding unusual pow
ers of endurance, and one looks for
endurance and agility in the young.
Finding that the daring and physical
strength of youth are beaten by the
experience of age, the conclusion to
be drawn Is that the new generation
is not learning the essentials of the
game. The group of veterans who
beat the youngsters this year cannot
be expected to do these wonders
again. Young men from other coun-
tries will come again and they Will
win because there will be no opposi-
ton to prevent them from doing SO.
And why? Because, some critics say,
the continent has learned the game
from professionals and has learned it
upon hard courts.
There is a freedom and power In the
foreign style which is absent from the
English game, in which few risks are
taken. In all probability this springs
from the fact that the typical courts
Of the continent are not, grass, but
have a hard, smooth surface from
which every ball makes a true bound.
Scarcely one grass court in ten can
be relied upon for a true bound Of the
ball. On such Inferior surfaces style
becomes cramped. First-class players
are not to be trained upon third rate
courts.
The best promise for English lawn
tennis is the fact that, the clubs are
losing their faith In grass. In 20
years time the very name Of lawn
tennis may appear strange to our
ears. the number of actual lawns de-
voted to the game will have become
SO small. Already hard courts are be-
ing constructed in every direction. In
a few years they will probably give
England a new school of tennis play
ers who will meet on equal terms the
best products Of the continental and
American Gibbs.
