Not Withdrawn Bout
Favorites Win
Irn Squash Play
AT Yale Club
Gould, Appel and Hyde
All Register Victories;
Titleholder Draws Bye

AS the result Of seven natche!
played in the third round Of the ma.
tional squash tennis championship al
the Yale Club yesterday afternoon the
field In the fight for the title has nov
dwindled to eight players, A.. Cordier
the present titleholder, having drawn
bye in this round. The favorites
again ran true to form, Jay Gould
Columbia; John w. Appel jr., Harvard
former champion, and F. Van S. Hyde
Harvard, all registering victories.
The real test for the "big four" will
be staged this afternoon, when Gould
clashes with Appel and Corder takes
the court against Thomas Coward, the
Yale Club player, who captured the
Class B national title two weeks ago
Hyde will be opposed by r.. f. Fink
of the Crescent A. c.
The same even trend Of play which
has marked the tournament from the
start, excepting, of course, the remark
able upset Of last Saturday, obtained
yesterday, an odd feature being that
TO contest went into the extra game.
Gould had an easy time with his op-
ponent, Donald MacKay, of the Yale
Club, winning the first contest by a
l5-to-3 margin. In the second game
the Columbia star let up bit and Mac
Kay, pressing his advantage, drew up
in the closing innings to within three
points of victory, on.y to be defeated
when Gould frightened up.
Hyde, who is one of the favorites for
the title, exhibited his usual steady
game and was never in danger, al
though H. r. Mixsell, of Princeton,
who was on the losers end, played a
t., n,I
usually fine judgment and his place
ments were well nigh perfect. He
maintained an even pace throughout
and won, 15-7, 15-8.
The gallery evidenced great interest
in the match which brought about the
defeat of Alexander II. Tones. of the
Harvard Club, at the hands of Coward,
the youthful Class champion Tones
has been playing fine game of late,
and, as was expected, he gave Coward
many an uncomfortable moment before
going down in defeat.
The first game was fairly even until
the halfway mark was reached. Here
Coward speeded up and his service
proved too difficult for Tones, who pro-
ceeded to drop into a slump. Coward
won almost as he pleased.
The Harvard man went out with a
vengeance in the opening of the sec
ond, and with a series Of we'll placed
shots coupled with an unusual ability
to get the ball from all kinds of angles
he piled UP an s to lead on his copo-
nent. There were numerous prolonged
rallies at this stage which brought lib
eral applause from the spectators who
packed the little gallery.
Had Tones maintained this pace the
contest would have gone to an extra
game, and the result might have been
different, but he faltered shortly after
his great rush to the front, and Cow
ard, sensing danger picked up the
loose threads and began knitting in
He executed number OF
gets and more than once re-
turned hard shot when it seemed inn
possible for him to get his racquet on
.he ball.
Tones missed two easy shots near
the close and the game was conceded
oy the spectators to Coward before the
final point was scored. The result was
l5-11, 15--12.

GEORGETOWN MAN
ADMITS SHOT SELF

Ogden, Nov. 2S.-That he had shot
himself through the breast to gain
the sympathy of his wife, whom he
had left in Idaho and then walked to
the police station, where he told the
story OF being assaulted by Mexican
bandit, was the confession made to
Robert Burke, chief of detectives
by Harrison @. Sorenson, 36 years
of age, late this afternoon.
The confession was made, Captain
Burk said, while the man was being
questioned regarding the alleged as
sault by the bandit. Sorensen be-
came confused in his stories and fl
nally told the officer that he shot
himself with a .32-calibre automatic
pistol and then threw the weapon
away. He said when the wound be-
gan to bleed freely he started for the
city jail to get medical assistance
and decided he wanted to live.
The bullet entered the upper part
OF the right breast and was remov-
ed by DIR. r. H. Wilson from the
side of the shoulder the body. From
ing nearly through the body. From
the time he was shot until he reached
the police station Sorenson walked
about two miles and lost much blood.
He displayed much grit, by permit
ing the doctor to cut small slit in
his back and remove the bullet with
out an anesthetic. The man will be
held at the city jail for few days
to receive medical aid.
Harrison Sorensen is the son of
Chris Sorenson of Georgetown. He
has been employed in Ogden for a
considerable time.

THIS RAILROAD rs PROSPEROUS

Tho Chicago. Burlington & Quln-
cy is one OF the prosperous rail
roads. It comes from an authora-
tive source that the next divident
will be 30 per cent, making 25 uer
cent for the year. This will be an
incident of much significance, nj
though the prosperity of the Bar
lington is widely known. The divi-
dend probably will apply to an In
crease in capitalization. Perhaps
one motive for this large dividend
is to help the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific, owners of a mai
ority Of the Burlington stock, which
are not doing very well on their own
operations. They are not earning
their dividends.
