Sheriff Brewster and Marshal Ell
hot Of Slidell returned from their
trip to Detroit, Mich, where they
went after Cannon, charged with a
criminal offense. They brought him
back, and they also brought back a
high opinion of the push and energy
of the section of country they visit
ed. They were particularly struck
with the beauty and comfort of the
steamers they travelled on during the
trip, describing them as floating ho-
tells, with all first-class conyeniences
and comforts. They were we'll fed

soil.
The Hereford bull at the Wiscoa-
sin station was tine, being valued AT
ten thousand dollars. The younger
bulls are being sold for $500 and up.
Very few OF the heifers are sOld

bulls for the breed stock markets OF

The station also has some choice
PercherOn horses. The stallion will
weigh 2400 pounds and is a. beauti-
full as any animal can be. No pic
ture was ever painted that could be
any more perfect than this animal.
They had also some very fine mares
and colts. One colt, just two mOntns
old, weighed 500 pounds and was al
ready sold for $4,000. This IL all
fancy stock, but the northern farmer
will not have anything else. He says
1t pays to raise good stock as it is

are so much greater.
We found out through the Wis

butter every year. She produces
$50 pounds Of butter every minute,
$4,000 pounds every hour, 36O,OOU
pounds every day and 131,OOO,OOO

period of play by Alfred NJ. Collins, who
scored two goals in brilliant fashion, the
Bryn Mawr Club first polo team defeated
the clubs Freebooters yesterday afternoon
by a score Of 15h goals to 13. 1t was the

trophy. however limited the handicap al
lowance to eight goals. Even with this
concession the Freebooters held the lead
until the final period of play, the score at
the end of the seventh period being 13 to
12Ia in their favor. Then Mr.. Collins rose
to the occasion and, with Mr.. Hopping, tall
lied sufficient goals to insure victory.
The chilly air and splendid springy con-
dition of the turf invited fast galloping
and the players of both teams took full
advantage There were many races from
goal to goal. Furlongs were reeled off at
racing clip Each goal was hard earned.
Messrs Hopping and Collins were In fine
stroke and rarely missed goals when the
ball was passed up. The former tailed

BECK AND WILSON
DEFEAT WALSH
AND PENNOCK
Fine Tennis Played in Boys
Doubles at Merton
Cricket Club
sEMIFIN AIS TODAY

Boys doubles In tournament play are
usually more of Joke than anything else,
but the two matches played yesterday at
Merton in the Junior city title play looked
more like Pennsylvania State champion
ship than anything else.
Rodney Beck and Soaring Wilson sprang
a great surprise by defeating the crack
Penn Charter team-"Bud" Walsh and
Sam Pennock-in straight sets. 1913. 6-3.
Beck and Wilson played together with the
assurance of a team of experienced players.
while their opponents, individually superior,
could not get together. Penpock had to
bear the brunt of the attack and for one
set he was equal to the task The second
set he broke under the storm, while both
Beck and Wilson improved; Walsh, as al
ways, played good. consistent tennis.
Soaring Wilson, the junior indoor cham
plon. was remarkable overhead, winning
many points by clean kills
The best match of the day was the semi
final double, In which HUM and Wier de-
feated Vanneman and March. Ga, s-6 1t
was the best boys tennis ever played in
philadelphia. Both teams hit hard and
made few errors.
The bright star OF the AFFAIR was Mar
shall Vanneman, who bore the burden OF
play for the losing team. Vanneman vol
ieyed unusually well and hit accurately
from the baseline. The match was lost
by an unfortunate bit OF bad judgment by
ROY March He had set point In the sec
ond set when he dropped an easy lob, which
fell in by feet. There was no reason to
let the ball fall. since 1t was an easy kill
March. however. played well throughout
the whole match.
