GREHT TENUIS GAMES PLAYED

The National Championship Matches at Newport, Yesterday. THE CONTESTS EXCITING D. E. JONES, V. J. CLOTHIER, KARL H. BEHR AND R. D. LITTLE WERE THE WINNERS OF THE GREAT GAMES. Publishers Prass Newport, Aug. 23. It was hard and gruelling lawn tennis that experts played today in the matches of the National championship tournament for the coveted semi-final round brackets. The winners were D. L Jone3, William J. Clothier, Karl II. Behr, jr., and Raymond D. Little. This is the cuartette that remains out of the big field of over 117 men who started, and the matches Mon day should surpass all former years. J. Allen Ross, the university of Chi cago inter-scholastic representative won the national championship in the event, defeating II. L. Davenport, llarvards title holder, in five fast and exhausting sets. The Clothier-Alexander match was the one put on the grand stand court in the morning. It was splendidly fought out, point by point, by both men, and in the fifth and deciding set Alexander was three times within a stroke of taking. the victory. Uehr found Irving Wrignt a puz zling opponent. The younger brother of the national champion was so sue cessful in shooting the ball over for quick paces that Behr was often forc ed up on the defensive and lost a set to Wright which was not looked for by the followers of the game. Harold II. Hackett was so exhaus ted from the tournament play that, after the first set he was compelled to default by Little, the captain of the American international team.

Chicago, Aug. 25 The Corinthian Association foot ball players of Lon don, England, defeated the All-Chi cago team this afternoon on Marshall field In one of the best socker foot ball games ever seen in Chicago. The final score was 5 to 2, and it was only the inability of the local team to han dle the ball to advantage when near the Englishmen's goal that kept the local boys from ending with a closer score. Time after time in the sec ond half, they carried the ball close to the goal only to lose it each time. Either Phone

SKETCH OF THE PREMIER THE CZAR'S CLOSEST AIDE Life of Man Which Was Sought by Russian Terrorists Has Been Filled With Good Deeds. Peter ArkadgeviU-h Stolypin was ap pointed premier of Russia just before the czar dissolved the douma. lie was minister of the interior in the Goremy kin cabinet and retains that post as pre mier. On taking office he announced his policy to be one of strong handed reform, but so far he has shown more XI, ''V PETER A. ETOIiTPIN. strong hand than reform. Several prominent Liberals, among them Count Ileyden, leader of the Constitutional Democrats in the douma, were invited to join Stolypin's cabinet and were on the point of accepting when the out breaks at Sveaborg, Cronstadt, War saw and elsewhere occurred. The op pressive measures of the government which followed these outbreaks led to a complete rupture between Stolypin and the Liberals. One of the new premier's earliest proclamations ordered provin cial governors to "exile to the further most limits of the empire all enemies of society." M. Stolypin was born in 18(53, the son of a popular general. After a bril liant university career he entered the ministry of the interior, being subse quently transferred to the agricultural department. Retiring from public life for a time, he devoted himself to the successful management of his great estates. In 1S99 he was made marshal of the provincial nobility. In 1901 he returned to the government service as governor of Saratov, where he made a good record as an administrator. Crashing m. Cleric.

The customer looked at him sharply and repeated his statement that he would take the blue and red and white band he held in bis hand. 'But you don't want that," protested the clerk.

BKYAX. reis or Manna Bay. A big reception committee, composed of prominent Democrats, with Iayor Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland as chairman, will meet Mr. Bryan in New York bay on special steamers. In the evening at Madison Square Garden will be held a meeting which is likely to have considerable influence upon the presidential campaign of 190S. The railroads are advertising special rates for "Bryan week," and many excursion trains will bring the Nebraskan's admirers to New York in time to see him land. Funds for the reception are being raised by "dollai subscriptions," as Mr. Bryan has ex pressed aversion to having any "taint ed money" participate in his welcome. Few travelers from this side of th; ocean have seen a3 much or had a good a time as Mr. Bryan has in tht year he has spent abroad. Saiiinj from San Francisco, where now h would see ruins instead of the beau tiful city he left, he stopped in Hawai for a few hours and then sailed on to the east, taking in Japan, the Philip pines, China, India, Ceylon and Pales tine before reaching Europe via th Suez canal. In Japan he met the mi kado and the heroes of the Russo-Japanese war. At Tokyo he was enter tained by the Japanese Society of Friends of America, for whom Barou Kaneko made an address of welcome Several times Mr. Bryan had to run the risk of offending his Japanese hosts for the sake of his religious con victious. Once he refused an invitation to a formal dinner on Sunday on the ground that it would conflict with his attendance at church, a custom with which he never allowed anj-thing to interfere. In India he addressed a large congregation' upon one of the Sundays he spent in that part of the British empire. The Indian newspa pers expressed surprise at finding that Mr. Bryan was a preacher as well as a politician and advised America to setid out more missionaries like him. In the Philippines Mr. Bryan met Aguinaldo and also the sultan of Sulu, WIIXIAM J. BRTAJf ASD GROTTP OF SIB. EEYAN axd docjia i-eadees. who cave " Lira his personal Has and made him a datto, or Sulu chief. The officials of the Philippine government showed him many courtesies. Arriving in Europe, Mr. Bryan in vestigated Greece and then went tc Rome, where he Interviewed the pope. Hastily passing through Austria, thee through Germany, the traveler arrived at St. Petersburg in time to listen to the debates of the douma, since de funct. The American's Intimacy with the popular leaders in the douma Is 6aid to have so alarmed the czar that he put spies on his track. From Russia Mr. Bryan went to Nor way to see lvlng Haakon crowned From Norway he went to England, and there "had the time of his life." For nearly two weeks he was the guest ol Ambassador Reid at Dorchester House he was received in private audience by the king, at the king's request; he met all the leaders of the government and the opposition, visited the gallery of the house of commons, took a promi nent part in the proceedings of the in terparliamentary conference and had the pleasure of being caricatured by Punch. In London on the Fourth of July he delivered? the principal address at the American banquet. Leaving England for a little while he took a rcr over to Holland, saw Switzerland and Belgium, and then returned to Liver pool to take his steamer for "home. sweet home."

HOPING FOR INCREASE

LIBRARY WORK DELAYED Earlham College is Awaiting Reply From Andrew Carnegie Relative to the Request That he Increase His Gift From $30,000 to $40,000. - The Carnegie Library committee at Earlham anxiously awaits an answer to the letter sent to Andrew Carnegie asking him to raise his original offer of $50,000 to an amount cf ?40,000, providing of course, that the college raises a like amount. In his first offer to Earlham Mr. Carnegie stipulated that he would give S30.000 toward a library at Earlham provided the college would raise a similar amount as an endowment. The college has raised the S30,000 necessary and even went farther and raised almost $40,000 with the hope that Mr. Carnegie would raise his ori ginal offer to that amount. The com mittee wrote to him some time ago In the meantime the committee being put to a disadvantage owing to the fact that it Is not able to eore to anv conclusion as to what kind of plans are necessary for the new buil ins until Mr. Carnegie is heard from DOGS KILLING TURKEYS Many Claims are Registered with the Township Trustee as Result of the Depredations. The farmers residing near the city have been registering quite a numbe of claims with the Wayne township trustee for turkeys which have been killed by dogs. George Ilodgin, ten ant on the M. C.

MOTHER SHAKE OF THE -"PLUM" TREE

Democrats are Numerous Who Want Minor Positions Under City. VARIOUS STORIES TOLD SAID TO BE FIXED THAT C. W. MERRILL IS TO BE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF WORKS. The Democratic municipal leaders are said to have held an impromptu caucus within the past few days and have picked the men who will be appointed to various positions. It is also said that it has been settled that C. W. Men-ill will be president of the Board of Public Works. It was announced some time ago that B. B. Johnson would be the head of the board but the latest Information from the Democratic camp Is that Mr. Merrill has been designated by Mayor-elect Schillinger, to be the commanding officer of the crew of three. Various iiuincs are mentioned for the place of market master, superintendent of parks and crematory superintendent. There has been a genuine scramble for these places and owing to the fact that many Dem ocratic workers have been turned down there are some sore syots manifest already. The Mayor-Elect Silent. When Mayor-elect Schillinger was asked yesterday concerning the selection of men who will fill the minor positions of the city government he said that there was nothing that could be given out at this time. "Just wait, just waft," the mayor-elect said. There is no denying the fact that there Is some uneasiness felt In fire department circles, for the tip was given out some weeks ago that there would be a general shake-up. Since the protests against this became vigorous, in and out of the Democratic fold, the talk has abated and it was asserted a few days ago that the new Board of Works would In all probability not venture to make any changes, at least for the present. Everything is in readiness at the cly hall for the shift. Next Saturday morning Mas'or-elect Schillinger will go to the city hall and take the oath of office and Mayor Zimmerman will step down and out to becomo a private citizen, the first time in a good many years. Webb Parry, who will assume the duties of city controller has been acquiring knowledge of the office under the tutorage of Controller Whelan and Nimrod Johnson who will be the only In-comine Republican officer Is also In readiness to take up the work of Treasurer Tennis. The affair of the municipal government will proceed without a break In the equilibrium that has been maintained, and only those who are at the city hall to witness the actual change of places will know that anything has happened until they read of it in the papers. Taft In the Comic Papers. Washington, Aug. 25. Secretary Taft has found his way Into comic papers all over the world as the result of the joke Associate Justice Brewer of the United States supremo court told on the sotund secretary of war at the recent Yale commencement. The pleasantry of the distinguished Jurist, It will be remembered, was based on a compliment he desired to pay to the chivalry of Yale men. "Yale men everywhere are polite," said Justice Brewer. "But Secretary Taft Is tho most polite man I ever saw In my life. Why, the other day I was in a street car with him, and be got up and gavo his seat to three women." Score3 of clippings based on this joke reach the war department every week. It, has found its way Into many languages. British Navy's III Luck. Chatham, England, Aug. 25. The trials of the new first-class battleship Africa of 16,350 tons, which havo been going on previous to the vessel beina; placed on the active list of the navy, have been postponed, owing to some minor defects having developed. This is the latest misadventure in a run of extraordinary 111 luck, wh'ch has been attending the British navy during the last few months, and which the advo cates of a strong navy are using to urge the admiralty to adopt a moro forward policy. Besides the Africa, no less than seven battleships have been placed out of action within a fevr months. Repressive Measures .Against Army St. Petersburg. Aug. 25. Repres sive measures are now to be tried against the army as well as the people. The emperor Issued a ukase In creasing all along the line the penalties for complicity of officers and men in political conspiracies against the state and insubordination of any kind. More Important still 13 the fact that the discretion now permitted to military courts in the matter ri tLe reduction of the penalties Incurred bi convicted men Is entirely withdrawn. Sailors and soldiers henceforth know the immutable price of mutiny and treason.
