ENGLAND DEFEATS

CUP PRElIMINARIES
[By Lates, hail!

WIMBLEDON.-Gre Britain, on
July IA. won the third of the singles
matches in the preliminary round
against France in the Dwight +. Davis
International lawn tennis trophy
tournament. The British team will
consequently meet at Boston the win
ming team of the Australasian- Cana
dian-German matches.
T. NJ. Mayrogodato OF Great Brit.
ain defeated Max Deengis, France. in
three straight sets, 81. rs, as. The
British team won the first two singles
matches but were beaten in the dou.
bles by the French pair. .-........
The English team will sail for the
United States Thursday SO as to have
time for a few days practice at Bos-
ton before engaging in the final round
of the competition
Mayrogordato's defeat II Decugis,
the French captain, was somewhat un-
expected, but Parke fulfilled expecta-
tons by beating Max Germot in the
fourth singles match in three straight
sets, rs, 81. So.
Decugis played much below form,
continually sending the ball into the
net Mayrogordato was aided by good
luck. Decugis was twice within a
point of winning the second set when
the score stood at 81, but threw the
chance away.
In the third set the Frenchman re-
covered his stride after the fourth
game, when the score was 1-3 against
him, and captured the next four games
but failed to take the set even on his
own service. -
Mavrogordato played with logged
perseverance and took no chances. BY
his defeat of Decugis Great Britain
won the second round of the Davis
cup. and the decisive victory which
Parke subsequently won in his match
against Germot was not needed.

J boost when inc committee of the
International Athletic Association vot
ed TO have boxing included in the 1916
| Olympic games NJ Berlin. Effors were
made to prevent boxing being includ.
ed In the program. but the committee.
after giving Il every consideration, de.
cided that boxing was entitled to q
place, and as result there will be
all kinds of amateur boxing events at
the games in Berlin in 1916. There
is no reason why boxing should be
barred from these games, for it is
certainly one Of the Oldest of athletic
sports, and dates back to the time of
the Romans There are many high
class amateur boxers in Europe, es-
pecially in England. and most of them
are very well to do. 1t is certain that
the United States will send a large
delegation of amateurs to compete in
the tournament to be held in Berlin.
and there is little doubt but that Aus
tralia will follow suit. France has
taken such a great interest in the
fighting game the mast few years that
they will no doubt have full entry
from the amateur ranks, and the same
can be said of England, so that all in
all there should be some very inter
esting contests as a result. y" r:
MATT WELLS, the former British
lightweight, who lost his crown
to Freddie Welsh, has put in claim
for the welterweight championship of
the world Wells returned recently
to England from Australia and issued
a challenge to any welterweight in
the world and offers to back himself
from 81 900 to $1,000 a side. While in
Australia Wells defeated Ray Bron-
son, who laid claim to the title in
America, and he has also defeated
Tom Mccormick, who twice defeated
Johnny Summers, holder of the Euro
pean title of welterweight champion.
Considering the record made by Wells
and his offer to back 1t up in sub
tantial way, there is no reason why
he should not be looked upon as the
real title holder In SO far as Europe
and Australia are concerned If there
is any man in America who thinks
he is welterweight champion he can
have a crack at the worlds title by
getting in touch with Mr.. Wells.
THE boxing boom that London Is ex-
] periencing has extended to wom-
en-. Heretofore it has been very
rare sight to see a woman at any OF
the well,known boxing resorts but
this season many women booked seats
fer the big fights. The fashion comes
from Paris where, since the advent of

many women to watch the contest
Among these are the athletic girl, the

come up to the office quite boldly and

BERNHARDTS PROPHECY AND
THE GROWN PRINCES PREFACE

The following article, written in Bit
ter denunciation of the German crown
prince by Madame Sarah Bernhardt,
was inspired by a preface written by
the prince to a book entitled Ger
many Under Arms" from the pen of
German military author.
The crown princes preface defend
ed his country's vast expenditures for
armament and It's policy of prepared
ness for war. He holds, in substance,
that so long as civilization endures
might must be the deciding factor in
all great international differences.
Madame Bernhardt's denunctation,
written thirteen months ago, now takes
on the complexion of prophecy in
view of the great European conflict.
She says:
IAN unbelievable. a monstrous. in
sane fact has come to pass. In Ger
many there has been published book
with the title Germany Under Arms,
and 1t is the crown prince who has
written a preface for the work.
II must state in truth that this
preface is the worst possible action of
which a man could be capable. And
to think that this man Is still young
and that destiny may one day call him
to mount the German throne!
"As for myself, personally, / hope
with all my strength that death will
strike the bloodthirsty kronprinz be-
fore he Will be able TO draw his sword.
1t gives one the shivers to think that
this wretched prince might ascend the
throne of that great nation, which I
hate, but which l admire for its patri-
otic faith, for It's politicians, its artists,
its admirable discipline.
"The whole world calls at this mo-
ment for peace in the name of human
ity. The war, which seems to be so
imminent, will be terrible. Either
France or Germany will perish.
There will be heaps and heaps of
dead. All the youth which at this
very hour is inspired by the rebirth of
life and of nature-ail that youth will
be cast before the muzzles of cannon
and rifies-food for grapeshot.
"All that young energy will be
moved down like hay. The fates will
