Final Singles from Kama

Forest Hills. N. T.. Sept. 5.-Amer-
lean Davis Cup tennis players defend
ing the famous international trophy,
made their victory in the challenge
round over Japan complete and de-
cisive on the courts of the West Side
club this afternoon, when they won
the rem aiming two singles matches of
the five match program.
William T. Tilden, II, of Philadel-
phia, defeated Ichya Kamagae in
straight sets, 81, Ga, 6-1.
William NJ. Johnstone of San Fran

straight victories in a concluding
round Of the 1921 Davis Cup matches
which began last June with twelve
nations in the role of challengers.
Many Saw Play.
While the outcome Of today's play
had no bearing on the retention of the
cup which already had been won by
the victories of last week, the play
brought, forth another close to capac-
ity gallery, there being more than
10000 spectators present. Although
the players lacked the incentive com
ing from a challenge and defense of
the trophy today, the tennis was of
the highest order.
Both singles matches were played
as though possession of the interna-
tional trophy hung on the result.
This vas particularly true in the Til
den-Kumagae match. In fact, close
followers Of the game were almost
unanimous in expressing the opinion
that Kumagae has never lifted his
game to the heights shown this after

Breaking Up of a long Summer.

A tremendous atmospheric disturbance, ac-
companied by all the wonderful phenomena of
wind, rain lightning, magnificent display Of
fireworks, marked the passing of summer this
year. Weatherwise were not astonished at the
event, although they may have been surprised
by the wide extent of the storm, as we'll as by
its intensity. Not undertaking to set date for
its coming. they realized il was at hand. The
closing days of August were marked by heat
almost unbearable, with such evidence Of an inn
pending change as was unmistakable. Hot
weather spread over an entire continent means
that a wide area of low barometric pressure is
present, which must soon be compensated for by
a corresponding high" developing somewhere,
in order that the equilibrium might be main
tanned. Local showers, accompanied by electric
disturbance, could not relieve the situation. A
great storm was building up, and it came.
Heated air rises, and the cold air rushes in to

Train Service to the North.

Some years ago, when Omaha was beginning
to aspire to be market town, its citizens con-
ceved and set on foot what later came to be
the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha
railroad. Many men yet live in the city who
can recall the enthusiasm with which the prof.
ect was taken hold Of, to the end that Omaha
be connected with northeastern Nebraska by
direct route. Now it happens that the Omaha
line has become part of the great Northwest
ern system, and the powers that be have just Sc
cured from the state railway commission au-
thority to take off two passenger trains that
served the people Of Herman, Blair, Tekamah,
Emerson and other communities to the north Of
the city and who prefer to do their trading in
Omaha. Under existing schedules, such will be
required to leave Omaha by 2 o'clock in order
to get home the same day. They have an al
tentative, however. that of going to Sioux City
to do their shopping. Plainly discrimination
against Omaha, this new train schedule on the
line that connects the metropolis with its neigh
bors to the north deserves earnest protest from
the business men Of the city, as it is getting the
indignant comment of citizens of Craig and other
towns who are now shut out Of privilege they
esteem.
