In that moment of silence a. deeper
moan than usual came from the room
overhead. My father dropped into a
chair, clasped his hands and closed
his eyes. Father Dan ratified his pearl
beads and moved his lips. but utter

Then a faint sound came from the
room overhead. My father opened
his eyes and listened, Father Dan
held his breath. The sound was re-
peated, but louder, clearer, shrifler
than before. There could be no mis-.

that what you've been standing by

A few minutes later the hell offthe
tower began to ring, and it was fol-

of our parish church, which rang out
a merry peal
"Thatll beat 'em. 1 say" cried my
father, and laughing in his triumph

WESTERN CHAMPIONSHIP
TENNIS TOURNEY OPENS

CHICAGO, July 25.-Opening Of the
western tennis championship tournament
today on the grass courts Of the Onwent-
sia Country Club at Lake Forest over
shadowed in interest the final singles
matches between Wilding and Brookes
of the Australas.an Davis cup team and
Schwengers and Powell Of the Canadian
players. BY their defeat in the doubles
yesterday the Canadians were put out OF
the competition this year for the inter-
national cup and the two matches be-
tween Brookes and Powell and Wilding
and Schwengers were an anti-climax.
Among the entries for singles and dou-
bles honors in the western tournament
are the names of 8. n. Doust and A. w.
Dunlop of the Australasian Davis cup
team and those of Powell. T. Y Sher-

Although the players from Australia
won their third straight victory from
Schwengers and Powell yesterday In
straight sets, 6-4, 6-3, ", the Cana
dians carried Wilding and Brookes along
at top speed all the way. The critics
agreed that Wilding outclassed Brookes
who seemed to be OF his form. Team
work of the pair also was ragged.
The western tournament was to start at
2 pm. at Onwentsia and the matches be-
tween the Austraiasians and Canadians
were set for 2:45 O'Clock.

PHILADELPHIA, July 25.-The Phila-

for their refusal to obey instructions
of the Athletics management that they
must cease sending out news or the

Shibe's objections to the bulletin
boards which were installed by the
Record and the Telegraph this season
at prominent points III the downtown dis-
trict were that the detailed reports OF
the home games seriously influenced
the attendance at the field. He declared
that the crowds which assembled before

DEFIANCE WITHDRAWN.
slowest of Cup Defense Yachts Is
Out of Competition.

NEW YORK, July 25.-Although some
yachtsmen were disappointed yesterday
when they learned that the Defiance.
built as a candidate for the defense
Of the Americas cup, had been with
drawn from further competition with
the Resolute and the Vanitie, they were
not surprised, for it became apparent
some time ago that the yacht would
not be able. from the showing she
made. to defeat either of the others
in all around sailing.
The Defiance was the second of the
trio of yachts built for the purpose of
defending the cup. She was designed
by George Owen of Boston, and was
launched from the yard of her build
ers, the Bath Iron Works, May IL. She
is the only wooden boat of the three
yachts. In all her races except one
the Defiance was third.
Speaking of the withdrawal of the
yacht last night, William Gardner. the
designer of the Vanitie, said:
1T is a pity that the boat had to be
withdrawn. 1t is hard on all hands.
especially the designer. but it was the
only thing to do. am sure the regatta
committee is glad. because it is now a
two-boat proposition, and it will be
easier at the starts with only two boats
to watch. A third boat always inter-
feres more or less. Unless the Defiance
could make much better showing than
she has it would have been folly to

KRAENZLEIN SAILS FOR HOME
American Trainer of German Ath.
letes on Leave of Absence.

BERLIN. July 25.-Dr. Alvin c.
Kraenzlein, the American trainer-in-
chief of the German Olympic athletes.
sailed for America yesterday on the
Vaterland with his wife and family.
Circumstantial reports are in circulation
that DIR. kraenzlein, although he entered
into a three-year contract with the
Germans. is disgruntled and will not
return. Both the trainer AMI lhs
Olympic committee deny this but it is
admitted that his leave of absence is
indefinite.
DIR. kraenzlein says that he had everv
reason to be satisfied with his first
years experience in Germany. His work
has been entirely prelim nary and
fundamental. having been devoted most
ly to the selection and instruction of
trainers. Next year. he said, he would
devote himself to the athletes them
selves and to the formation of Ger
man team for the 1916 games.
"They have material in plenty" said
DIR. Kraenzlein, "and are thoroughly en-
thusiastic in spirit. both of which go
far to make up for lack of the tra-
ditions which have long prevailed in
the United States and England. 1 think
that Germany will have a very well
balanced team when 1916 comes around"

CLEVELAND, July 25.-There is a
chance that Doc Johnston may figure in
deal with ST. Louis in the near future
despite the fact that Branch Hickey is
said to have abandoned negotiations
for the Nap first sacker. Hickey is
quoted as saying Doc may jump to the
Feds because of the deal, but that is a
mistaken idea. Doc is perfectly willing
to go to at. Louis as he has great ad-
miration for Branch Hickey, and would
welcome regular berth with the

G0LFING HINTS.
BY .sTRAIGHr DRIvE.-

MASHIE PRACTICE.-The ambi-
tious golfer should take every op-
portunity he can find to practice
with his mashie, whether on the
golf links or on his own front
lawn. The art of picking the ball
up for the desired distance on
short approaches with reasonable
degree of confidence cannot be
taught-it must be worked out by
every golfer for himself.
Excellent practice can be had by
playing from tree to tree about a
lawn. taking a dozen or so balls
and pitching them to different trees
or spots until fairly confident of
securing a definite result.
Pleasure and sport may be added
to the practice by getting a friend
or two to join In the game by
counting a point for the ball get
ting nearest to the various marks
aimed at. BY each player taking
certain make of ball or marking
those he plays with. confusion re-
garding the result can be avoided.
Many a pleasant hour may be
spent in practice of this sort. at
times when it is inccnvenient to
journey to the links, and great
benefit will result.

Settlement for Right
Of way of Road

LAS ANlMAS, Colo, June 13.-The
county commissioners have arranged
an advantageous settlement for right
of way for the county road that par
allels the tracks of the Santa Fe rail-
road. The railroad, by a grant from
congress, was given a strip of land
for railroad purposes 100 feet in
width each side of the center line of
the railroad. The company fenced
only 80 feet each side Of the track.
The county road was established and
has been on the right of way for
years. The railroad recently notified
all parties that occupancy of such a
road was trespass. The county COM
missioners took the matter up with
the road which granted an easement
to the county for road purposes in
perpetuity.
