Coast-to-Coast Highway

The great advantages and benefits to be
derived by a coast to coast highway through
the South was viyidly brought out at the
meeting Monday night of the Southern Ma
tion Highway Association. The lack Of de-
velopment of many parts of the South is due
directly to the absence of GOOD ROADS.
With an unbroken chain of proper highways
a more intimate knowledge of the resources
and opportunities offered by the different
sections will be gained. Progressive Rich

establishing these great avenues of industry
and trade.

/ EVEN BREAK AT RACQUETS
Philadelphia and New York
Pairs in Spirited Games.
Thy Telegraph to Tile Tribune.

Philadelphia, Jan. 4.--Philadelphia and
New York broke even In the two inter
city racquet matches played at the Rae
quet CLUB this afternoon. The local first
team won an easy victory over its Goth
am opponents by -four games to one. but
the Philadelphia junior pair was defeated
after a long and hard fought contest by
four games To three. The local repre-
sentatives, however, won seven games TO
five for the visitors. so that Philadelphia
actually carried off the honors of the
day.
While the first contest proved some
what cay for the Philadelphians, the
second battle was desperate one. Many
thought that when Tilden and Cassatt
had secured the lead Of three games to
two they should have won the match
Two runs OF ten aces each by the New
Workers., however. proved too much for
them, and they lost.
