FIGHT, IN TENNIS RANKS

There is likely to be trouble in the
tennis world beca use of the deter
mination Of Pacific Coast enthusiasts
to fight the new amateur rule. The
new regulation provides that any
player who engages in the business of
selling sporting goods puts hlmself
in the professional class.
This rule hits former Champion
Johnston, former Champion Maurice
E. Mclaughlin, Tom Bundy and Billy
Strachan, four Of the best players on
the coast. The coast folks are pre-
pared to stand behind the players to
the end. They declare it is the MAJ
'tural course of events for a man who
has been a star in tennis or in any
sport to have wide reputation. They
do not think, however, that this
should prevent him from retaining his
amateur standing if he decided to
embark in the sporting goods bust

~ Rides Famed In History ~

Cal, a distance OF 1886 miles, It was
planned that each rider should cover
rs miles in a day on three different
horses.
II was soon found that 20 miles
was too much for the horses for n
regular unbroken gallop, and the dis
lance was reduced to from 10 to IL
miles. For that distance every horse
was pushed to his limit.
The shortest time In which the
entire distance of 1866 miles was COW
cred by Pony Express riders was
made in March 1861. They carried
Lincoln's inaugural address to the
Golden State in seven days and sew
enteen hours, an average speed of
over 10 1.2 miles an hour.
A rider named Haslam ,(well known
in pony express days in Utah) dash
cd OFF 100 miles in eight hours and
ten minutes. Another pony express
man covered one ten mile stretch in
thirty-one minutes which is better
than most Of the Rocky Mountain
railroad limited trains can do.
The news that Fort Sumter had
been fired upon was flashed from St
Joe to Sacramento in eight days and
fourteen hours
Jim Moore once rode $50 miles al
an average speed OF eighteen miles
per hour. The horses were the best
that could be obtained and as l have
said, they made short runs Of from
ten to twelve miles.
No wonder that sometimes a letter
had $27 worth OF stamps upon II

airy nditions!-Girard in Philadel

ASPHALT OIL Is THE
BEST TO USE ON ROADS

The only kind OF oil used in oiling
streets or roads, In the opinion of
Dean E. J. McCausland Of the
school OF engineering OF the Univer.
sity of Missouri. should be an oil
that contains paraffin will evaporate
rapidly and leave road muddy and
sticky.
The engineering experiment sta.
ton here has analysed many sam
pies OF road oils sent to the univer-
sity from various parts Of the state.
Oil that has an asphalt base will give
almost as much satisfaction as as.
