Much interest is being started in ten
mis- at the association court on Blon-
deau, and King court is also in con
dition. Tennis has never had an equal
chance with other sports in Keokuk,
AID it is hoped that many will take
up the game this summer, as the sea.
son will undoubtedly be long one,
giving man chance to start the
game and learn 1t fairly well in one
year. There is no game like 1t for
both young and old, no game of such
world wide following. Members of the
Y. NJ. C. A. are eligible to belong to
the court, and non-members of the
association can become members of
the King court on Nineteenth and

f'SANTA MARIA" IS OPENED FOR VISITS
 OF BRIDGE PORTERS
Spain's Official Reproduction of Columbus Flag Ship Is
 MOored Here.

Many city officials were included in the gathering aboard the Santa, Maria, Spain's official reproduction of the flag ship of Christopher Columbus fleet, when the interesting and educa- tfonaI vessel was formally opened to the public, at Steeplechase dock. Stratford avenue, this afternoon Commando Charles Stephenson, who is piIoting the craft by easy stages to- wards the worlds fair, invited Mayor Wilson to preside at the formaHties of the opening.
 The Santa Maria was visited by A. 900, ,000 people in Chicago in 1893, is now on her way to the Panama ex- position. The Santa Maria. was built in the navy yard of Cadiz, Spain, by the naval architects and archae1ogists appointed by the Spanish govern ment from the original drawings of the Santa, Maria prepared for the one hundredth anniversary of the landing of Columbus in 1892.
 Her length over all is 94 feet. and her beam 25 feet and eight inches. The Santa Maria is very staunchdy built She has a 1 2 by 14 inch solid oak keel, is double ribbed every II inches and is sheeted outside with three-inch blanks of Spanish fir. The Santa Maria was styled a. ship because of her size and deck arrangement, be- ing the only one of the three boats composing the fleet of 1492 that had foreeastIe and cabin
 She has a bowsprit and three masts. The main mast yard is 90 feet high and carries a main yard 60 feet in length. At the top of the main mast is a crows nest nine feet in diameter, in which the sailor on lookout duty was stationed. About the. ship in various places are Spanish wooden blocks, which are used in handling the sails. These blocks are of the Co., 1unnbus period. Under full sail the ship is a most inspiring sight.
 On the cruise of 1492 the Santa Maria carried a. total in officers and crew from 56 to TO, according to, diff ferent historians. This included the admiral, high constable, chief ac- countant, comptroller, royal notary, historiagrapher and. interpreter. These people were cared for on this small boat for a period of 70 days. Where they found quarters or where they stored provisions is something of a mystery. It is said that fresh water was carried in tanks built in the hold, the tanks being rep1enished by catch ing rain water on sails spread about the ship.
 The educational opportunity which the coming of the Santa Maria affords will undoubtedly be welcomed by many residents.

The recent exploit Of Jos. c. Mil Ter, the Oklaho1na ran chman ana one Of the owners Of Miller Bros. & ArIngton's 1O1 Ranch Wild West show, in buying a. tramp steamer in order to facilitate the shipment of horses consigned to the British French and Greek governments, adds another to the many notable achieve7 ments of this indefatigab1e cattleman. The syndicate headed by MT. Miller has already sent several thousand horses to the European beIligerents, and several thousand more are con- tracted for It was the inpossibility of securing transportation that neces- sitated the purchase of the steamer.
 Another nofa.bAe instance of striking the iron while it is hot was MT. Mil Ier's purchase of the equipment of the entire Mexiqan# army two, years ago. When Villa defeated the Huertistas at OJibnaga, and they fled across the international line and were interned at Fort Bliss by the United States au- thorities, they rode their ponies, car ried their arms and succeeded in saw ing several field pieces. MT. Miller made bee-line for El Paso, got in touch with the Mexican consul, made a deal for the purchase of the entire outfit, including. about 3,200 ponies.' with rifles. revolvers and field pieces, sent the ponies to the 101< Ranch at +D1lSSg OtN1dAtOIIlds dIAdrC1AS RAOOCO0Cd to negotiate a deal with Villa for the purchase of the arms and artillery. The entire deal was consummated in side of five days, and netted the cat tleman a, royal profit.
 The Mexican ponies were turned. loose on the ranch, and many of them were afterwards sold to the United States and other governments Fifty Of them, it is announced, are. being utilized Tn the broncho-busting con- tests in the 101 Ranch Wild West show, which Bridgeport will hee Monday, Aug. 2 in conjunction with Jess Willard the cowboy champion of the wor1ds and probably a hundred Of them are still running at large on the range.
 The coming of Willard, by the way, is accentuating interest in the 101 Ranch show, and the combination is one that should add greatly to the strenuous effectiveness of the exhibi- ton. The champion. it is announced, will make his first appearance in the role of cowboy, and later in the per formance he will be seen in ring cos tune with a sparring partner and illustrate the famous twenty-sixth round which resulted so disastrously for the former colored champion. This great feature and what is de- cfared to be the greatest congress of ccwpunchers, cowgirls, Indians, Mex jeans and other typical wild west people ever seen in a single exhibi- ton, are depended upon to give the public a full measure of exhilirating entertainment. The parade takes place at 10:30.

AUSTRIAN FLEET GETS
READY FOR ZIG BATTLE.

AMSTERDAM, June SO.-From add
vices received from various quarters
it is made clear that the Austrian fleet
is now preparing to attack the Italian
fleet in the Adriatic and force it TO a
decisive battle. Both nations have
about equal number of first class
battleships and the struggle ought to
be a closely contested one. The vic
tory Of either side would mean the ex-
posture Of the coasts Of the other to
