Is Seriously Taken Up BY Prin-
cess Mary and She is TAX
Ing Lessons.

LONDON. June 81 - Princess
Mary, daughter of the King and
Queen, has seriously taken up the
game Of lawn tennis, and is receiving
lessons from Mrs. Lambert Cham
bers, the present lady champion.
The game Is now one OF the most
popular in the British Isles, having
been given an immense impetus from
the championship matches played
last year. when the Americans won
the Davis cup, and Mclaughlin made
such a spectacular fight for the Brit
ish championship. During the win
ter and spring new courts were laid
down all over the. country and the
game is played at all the big house
parties, while innumerable clubs
have been organized. All the parks,
too, now have their tennis courts,
and If not Immediately, at any rate
in the near future England hopes to
produce young players to replace the
veterans, who have to be depended
upon to uphold her end in the game.
Other members of the royal family
are devotees of the game. King
George plays fairly well on the courts
at Buckingham Palace and Windsor
Castle. and is a frequent spectator
at tournaments.

PANAMA. June 27-Athough the
rainy season has been on for more
than month, the saturation of the
earth has not increased the Cucara-
cha slide which the dredges have
been racing to overcome. 1t is es-
timated that the dirt is now being
removed twice as fast as 1t slides in
the cahnnel and that level or rest
for the slide may soon be reached.
The depth OF the channel is now
over thirty-eight feet and with a
width of more than 200 feet It was
more than sufficient to accommodate
the Panama Railroad Steamship Al
lance, of 1000 tones, which was the
first ocean liner to pass through the
canal without mishap. Even TO-
900 ton ship would have no difficulty
but the canal is not yet ready for
the bigger warships.

Lay the Jest about the julep in the
camphor balls at last,
For the miracle has happened and
the olden days are past;
That which makes Milwaukee thirsty
does not foam in West Virginia,
And the lid in old Missouri is as
tight as can be-
oh, the comic paper colonel, and his
( chronies well may sigh,
For the mint is waving gaily, but
the South is going dry.
BY the stillside on the hillside In
Kentucky all is still,
For the only damp refreshments
must be dipped up from the rill,
Moth C'lina's stately ruler gives his
soda glass a shove,
And di1nnGrnG IoooI onttan .,,s41. -.
South China Gov;
1t is useless at the fountain to be
winkful of the eye,
For the cocktail glass is dusty and
the South is going dry.
IT is water, water, everywhere, and
not a drop to drink,
We no longer hear the music Of the
mellow crystal clink,
When the Colonel and the Major and
the Genl and the Jedge
Meet to have little nip to give their
appetites an edge,
For the eggnog now is nogless and
the rye has gone awry,
And the punch bowl holds carnations
and the South is going dry.
And the nightcaps now have tassels
and are worn upon the head
Not the nightcaps that were taken
when nobody went to bed;
And the breeze above the blue grass
Is as solemn as is death,
For 1t bears no pungent clove-tang
on Its odorific breath,
And each man can walk chalk line
when the stars are in the sky,
For the fizz glass now is izzless and
the South is going dry.
Lay the Jest about the julep meath
the chestnut tree at last,
For there's but Une kind of moonshine.
and the olden days are past,
For the water wagon rumbles thru
the Southland on its trip,
And it helps no one to drop off to
pick up the drivers whip,
For the e mint bed makes pasture
and the corkscrew hangeth high.
All is still along the stillside and The
South is going dry.
