AN AWFUL WARNING.

W. L. Hall, a life Insurance man,
who formerly lived in chickasha, shot
and killed himself at Guthrie Monday.
More forceful than a hundred sermons
is the message which he impaired in a
brief letter left TO his wife. No COM
ment could strengthen the simple, d.
rect statements in which he explained
how his life was wrecked. The letter
was as follows:
TO Ny Wife:

TENNIS rs ANCIENT.
Tho Game Had Its Origin In the Old
Days Of knishthood.

Tho Game Had Its Origin In the Old
Days Of knishthood.
By many people tennis is thought to
be an essentially modern game, but in
reality it is probably one of the most
ancient bali games and was a sport
long before cricket was dreamed Of.
Though undoubtedly not existing dur
ing the Arthurian period, tennis, or, as
it was called, "tenez," is mentioned
in the Arthurian legends, written In
1900, and the knights Of the round ta-
bic were pictured as engaged In the
sport when the weather was too hot
for Journeys or jousts.
From a simple beginning and through
many centuries, the intricacy Of the
games rules have been developed,
writes contributor to the London
Times. It's present name seems to be
a corruption for the term 'tenez,"
which the server used in the same way
ready Is called out now. In the be-
ginning the name was jeu de paume,
taken from the fact that the ball was
struck with the hands instead Of with
a racket. Later the hand was incased
In a glove, and still later the glove was
covered with strings running criss
cross, from which condition there was
but a short step to the short handled
racket.
In feudal times the courts We're mere
" open grass plots, oftentmes the
lawn Of castle, and not till late IN
the seventeenth century was the court
inclosed, when walls were built as
backstops. Now most Of the modern
English and French courts are entirely
inclosed with four walls and a roof.
