Miss White wins
State NET final
Baltimore Girl Defeats Mrs.

for Challenge Round
THRILLS IN THE
SEMI FINALS

Miss Susanne V. White, the young
Baltimore player, defeated Mrs. Will
liam Newhall. Germantown Cricket
Club. i'm the final round OF the wo-
mems Delaware State tennis cham
pionship. played at the Wilmington
Country Club yesterday, by the deci-
sive scores Of 60. 6-1.
Miss Whites victory in the finals
brings her to the challenge round,
where she will meet Mrs. J. Saunders
Taylor. Of the home club, the outstand-
ing champion.
The finals produced few OF the
thrills that marked the semifnal
round, in which Miss White and Mrs.
Newhall were victorious in matches
requiring a rare combination of skill
and endurance. Consequently. the
match which brought them together
was tame in comparison.
Miss White had the game well I'm
hand throughout. Her smashes 10
her opponents base line were effec-
tive. her service was good at all times
and while there was nothing spec

her tennis was thoroughly sound.
Mrs. Newhall played a game that
deserved a better score. Her op-
ponent won only one love game. and
many times deuce was called before q
game was run out. The German.
town player scored often by the use
Of short chop stroke that found hei
opponent on guard.
The final round Of the doubles
which carried the championship, was
captured by Miss Phyllis Walsh anC
Mrs. Isaac Schlichter. Jr.. OF tn,
Philadelphia Country Club, who de
feated Miss Susanne White and Mis-
Sarah S Myers, Merton. GA. 3-6. ia
This match gave the gallery thrill

, Walsh's net play was the feature &
the match. A half-hit return With

The play Of the defeated pair wa

THE HIRED MAN KNOWS
A LITTLE ABOUT THROATS

The editor of The Tribune has said
in his columns last week that a lady
has demanded that the Hired Man tell
his readers just why women wear low
neck dresses. The lady goes on to say
that the Hired Man don't know what
he is talking about in this regard.

don't know whether she wears the low
neck garment, but since it has been
publicly demanded, | will publicly tell
what | know about it. A good many
threats are so formed that to confine
them in even loose fitting garment
makes it difficult to breathe. Then
there are other throats so formed that
to cover them with cloth makes them
liable to colds when the cloth is nee
essarily removed. A good many cases
of bronchitis come from undue neglect
of the throat, drapping it up one day
and leaving it bare the next If the
throat can just as we'll be left bare in
order to harden it against colds and
other diseases, it is by far the best,
and good many women dismiss old
Dame Gossip with but scant ceremony
and look to their health first. Then
once again, the rubbing of cloth
against the texture of some threats is
liable to produce goitre. Then, too,
cancers have come from constant wear
of dress goods against some threats.
Also, singing is impeded by fencing
the throat from freedom of muscular
action. Now, will the lady admit that
the Hired Man understands?

MEXICANS ALICE FRAUD
AGAINST COL. NELSON
Suit Filed in District Court for SEC. 900
Damages.

Suit was filed in the district court
Saturday by Amado Marconi and
Amado Candolf against Col. ]. A.
Nelson. The suit grows out of cat
tie deal made by the parties to the
suit. Upwards of $4,000 are involved
in the lawsuit.
In their complaint Messrs. Marconi
and Candolh allege that Nelson in a
signed contract agreed to purchase
from then. approximately 700 head of
cattle, then on range in Lower Cali
fornia, Mexico. They claim, and
the appended copy Of the contract
would show, that Nelson agreed to
pay $40 head for the cattle and all
expenses of moving them from the
Mexican range about 200 miles to
Campo, Cal. There he was to pay
them $500 in gold and deed to them
100 acres of land in the Willamette
valley, and another quarter section in
Malheur county, Ore.
Messrs. Marconi and Candolfi allege
that when they delivered the cattle,
900 in number, to Nelson at the Cali
tornia town designated, he sold 400
head OF them and converted the mon
ey to his own use, paying them moth
ing. They further allege that the land
was. not worth what Nelson claimed
1t should be valued at, and that the
option he held on one of the tracts
expired this present month, he never
having owned it. The 200 animals not
sold in California were shipped to
Malheur county.
