Douglas and Stackpole winning the toss snd starting to serve. M. S. Paton ?as the referee and Kd Rodgers looked ?fter th? marking. This first game not only proved the hardest fought of this particular mxtch. but of the afternoon. During the fu m thr??o hands the local team could make little progress, whereas Tilden and Paul cath?red in eight ace?, three of which were ' on placement. After Douglas was hand out m tho fifth Inning, Staokpole went In to and th?*? player in question score?! m < onsecutiva ares on service, the ball in *.n?arly every instance ?hooting to the cor? ners for wellnigh Impossible get?. The count then stood 11?all, and It remained ths? way when the inning closed, for the Philadelphlans were blank??d In their hand. The New York team scored twice on Its opponent's misse* In the sixth hand, and wh?n the opposition promptly counted two on a place? and a miss It became set at five. Tilden was serving, and he s?-ored again before losing his hand. From there on ?very point was stubbornly contested. Douglas and Stackpole finally winning, 11 to IT, la th? ninth hand. Failure to win that gam? s?emed to take the snap out of the visitors, who proved rsther easy victims thereafter. The second game endM in the fifth hand, the New Yorker? hitting the ball so hard that most of the points were scored on opponent's misse?, ?lever placing on the part of the New Yorkers kept their opponents1 on the jump Is the third gam?*, which andel la the fourth band. In the fourth and last game hard smashes by Douglas, combined with puzzling service by Stackpole, always had Tilden and Paul guessing. it u.ok Whitney and Barger ? few hands to g't fairly warmed up to their work to start the eecond match, but when they did g?t In their stroke they kept ?Tteorge Standing, who went In to mark, calling off the ?core At the end of the fourth hand !t> count stood 7 to <* In favor of i'assatt ?nd Thayer, bu? n wxn ? different story ? ?t the end of th? next inning. Whitney went In to fen?, and by the time it w:?s hand out he and Barger had added five to then- total. That additional fire meant a good deal, as tho opposing pair were blanked on places in their half. The game terminated In tho next band with another run of live, the result of two places, two more aces on service and a miss by the opponents after a long rally. Both sides were blank?ed to start the third game, but Whitney and Karger ran ? in the seeoad Inning. Whitney's ?ervl?*e here uyg?t deadly, and the aces came so f?M that it looked as if the C.Miaker pair would meet spe?dy elimination. On one oc? casion, when Whitney missed the ball com fl?te!y on a quick bound from the side ?all, Barger was there to make the return In brilliant fashion. When the? home pair ran the count up to 1*?5 In the fifth hand it looked all over, but the game ball lin? ked for three more hands, ?luring which period Caasatt and Thayer got their count up to 10. The glectstve point was an ace '??ored on service by Whitney. The borne pair settled matters In three hand? in the fourth gam?. After being bunked in the first Inning, Whitney and larger failed to retire their opponent? bo fore ("assatt and Thayer had made 7, four ?t ?hich were ot? placement. Whitney Uien *ent in to serve, hla side getting 4 before "* was hand out. Barger then went in, ?nd tlie run never stopped until the game k?U had been reached. After the other ?Ids had been reached. Whitney won the "?<?H?ary point with a place to the left n?tid lower corner, that died away before ??her of the Philadelphlans could get to '"? ball. ..Tie ru-xt racquets of Importance will be ?0? national double? four-handed ?ham P.onM,ip tournament at Philadelphia the ?"?I of next week.

ALL-COMERS PRE-ARRANGED Newport Likely To Be the Scene Apain of Biff National Championship. Pr? many rrograasslve movements ?r* ?o be launched m the t.hlrty-nrst annual ineet inlT of the Vnlted 8tnteS National l/nv?n Tennl? Association that evpn now. three i weeks before the session In th? Waldorf- I Astoris, ?--n PYtday, February b, ?he .leb- ' Kates and follower? of the name are en- I deavoring to deride their postilen upon the : mor?? Importan? questions Strangely ! enough, that old bone of contention, the '? government of the allcomers national ' championship, has been ecraiched up ng.ln But mo?t ?mazing of all. Dr. .lame? Dwtgh?, president of the national governing body. now admit? over hi? signature, in the cur- j rent Issue of "American l??wn Tennis.'' th-? ! official publication, that the draw of the | players ?as seeded at Newport on Ive oc ] casions. This. ?if-splte the fact tha? ?my j pre-arrangemcnt or the competitors has been a violation of the rules for many year?. , The reason for th? seeding <iu?-stion being brought forward at this time in because th* l.'ngllsh tui?oelat1on desires to standardise th? rules, and has recently passed dra??le. 1eg?8la?ion against th? practice. I? Is de ?Ired ?hat the Americans do likewise. Henry W. Sloeirtn, Oliver B. ?'ampbeil ?nd Robert D. Wrenn declare a*?.?ins? seeding. stating that they have no knowledg?. r.f RiK-h prartlc? at Newport On th? other] hand, ?'larenee Hobart admits knowled???? of tlK- practice. Which he b??ltevep to he ?roil?. Frederick H. Alexander epitoml7.es the seeding puzzle an follows: 1 Seed the draw and make the holder play through, and you discourage th? "eomiriK" player, though you do well finan? cially. !.. Do no? seerj the draw and mak" ?h? holder play through, and unie?? the "gods' are with yon, you chain? a horrible flaale and a large financial loss. 3. Do not seed the. draw and let the hold? er stand out, and you give the holder a dis? tinct advantage |f his opponent bus ?manci-d to hit th? "hard hide" of the tournament. 4. Reed the draw and let the holder stand out, and the conclusion la the same as No? 1 and 3 combined. No?. 1. 2 and 4 ?eem to i>e detrimental t-> the future of lawn tennla In the. United State?. No. 2 is, t>erhapH. detrimental to a ?Ingle man, namely, the winner of the Irrumamtint Summing up all that Alex ander ?ay?, he ?lands for anything that will bring out and encoura-ge the younger player? in th!? eountry. Another matter which 1? to be mad? an issue will be the Increase of the executive ?ommltte-? from thirteen to nineteen mem? bers. It is pointed out that ?he growth of the game ha? been such ?? to make a larger ?ectlonal representation essential to the welfare of the sport. Two year? a*o thl? matter was pushed to the front, only to ba? defeated at that time. After all. tbe ?wo burning questions are: Where wilt the next all-comers be decided, and will the entry list be limited'.' The ?..'aslno, at Newport, ic I., will be the scene of the thirty-second all-comers', next August. From a careful Investigation-of the forces which favor and which stand against Newport, it 1h certain at this time that any change Is most unlikely. It Is even doubtful If the opposition to Newport will be a* strong a? it wa? a year ago. That the entry lint for tho championship will be limited to probably fifty players at Its nest holding appears a certainty. Some | one of a number of systems will be put Into operation ?o as to make a class qualiflca- | tlon necessary. Thl? will make for a rap Idly mo\1ng and Interesting .ournament that may easily be played to a conclusion in one week. Anyway, the championship Is the pivotal point In the deliberations which promises to Interest every follower of tbe game In this country. The other problems are largely considered ae side issues. ?enrice?Tildan and Paul, I. by opponents miss? ing, 1; by plsrement, 1.

Bvery year an tnterelaes tournament is held, but the hey? are not permitted to play tftta teams of the regular pnbll?? aehool?. Still more remarkable, however, le the work among the blind.

Th? teeru which first complete? the relay, of course wins the rar?. An Idea of the speed and aeeiirscy of tho boy? may bo gleaned from he fact that at the blind worker* exhibition, held at the Metropolitan Opera. House recently, a team of blind children defeated a team of boys who w?re per? fectly ?ound In body and faculty.

In rate at some time perhaps he would be ne?d?d to serve the country The sentiment. wlill? of itself good, has had little or no backing from the regiment?. Several schools have applied for permission to use ihe rifle range? In the armorie?, but have received curt "not dates open" for a reply. More than on? thousand boy? of the va? rious high .?rhooln have ouallfled an marksmen In the laat year.
