A splendid opportunity for a nice subdivision, A splendid chance for CLOSING TENNIS GAMES, Wright Wins in the Singles — Two Second Prizes Remain Here. Yesterday the final games were played in the all-comers’ tennis tournament on the grounds of the Bachelor Club. This fact as well as the fine weather seemed to make the attendance larger than on any of the previous days, but still the number of spectators present did not indi- cate that lively interest in tennis which the promotors of the tournament believed existed. From a financial point of view the tournament | bas proved to be a dismal failure, and it is said that the gate receipts wiil not be more than enough to pay for the balls used during tne tournamont. In other respects, however, the tournament has been one of the most #success- ful ever held inthis city, and great credit is due to Mr. Thomas P. Borden, whose energy and executive management have been displayed in ail the details of the arrangements. The local players have never appeared to better ad- vantage in an open tournament where players of reputation from otker parte of the country have taken part. The second prizo both in the singles and the doubles will be re- tained in this city, and the fine display of tennis made by the local players in holding the second place in the face of the skilled opposi- tion which they had to meet is a gratifying evi- dence that the tennis players of this city are taking rank among the best players of the country. t THE FinsT GAMES played yesterday were the semi-finals in the doubles, MecCawley and Woodward met Peter and Poter and aftcr a well-contested game the former won by @ score of 3-6, 6-2, 6-4. The playing of Peter and Peter showed excellent tearggwork and their nniform game is perhaps ono of their strong points. They have had but little experience in tournaments and their coolness und ability to do their best at critical moments is a promising indication of their future in tennis. A SUnPRIST. The game between Beach and Thompson and Wright and Billings was a complete surprise. It was expected, of course, that such a strong combination as Wright and Billings would easily overcome all opposition in their road to the finals and the fi Both Mr. Beach and Mr. Thompson are excellent players, but they do not rank with the two other men, and it was supposed that the strength of the indi- vidual players would be shown with equal force in their team work. Wright and Billings won the first set easily, and then through the bril- ying of their opponents and their own tve team work they dropped the noxt sets and at the same time two threw over their chance for appearing in the finals and capturing the handsome silver bowls, ‘The score of sets was as follows: Beach and Thompson beat Wright and Billings 2-6, 7-5, 6-3. The result took the crowd by surprise, as well as the players. Mr. Wright said after the game was conciuded that ho never had experi- enced such a surprise, as he had been contident all along of winning. The game, however, was lost. not only through the defective team work of Wright and Billings, but because of the ef- fective playing of their opponents, Mr. Beach especially distinguishing himself by the bril- liancy of his play. Wright and Billings took their defeat in good part, although the former made no concealment of his disappointment in having lost the opportunity of winning the silver bowls, In talking about the pri ir. Wright said that they wore the baudsomest that he had seen offered at a tennis tourna- ment, WRIGHT WINS IN THE SINGLES, After a short interval Mr. Wright and Mr. McCawley started in to finish the third set in the eingle finals, which had been interrupted yesterday by tho rain. The score stood when play stopped yesterday 6-4, 6-0, in favor of Mr. Wright, with two to one in games in the third set in favor of Mr. McCawley. In order to win it would have beon necessary for Mr. Me- Cawley to take the third set and then two suc- cessive sets. and it was plain that he would not be able to play such an up-hill game in the face of the skill of his opponent. He, there- fore, was naturally not spurred on to do his best, while Mr. Wright was not in the best spirits, owing to the reverse which he had just experienced in the doubles. The closing games in this last set lacked spirit and neither of the men played their best game. Wright finally won by ascore of 7 to 5. He is, therefore. en- titled to hold the cup which represents the championship of the south in singles. It will be necessary for him to defend this cup in the open tournament in this city next year. SKETCH OF CHAMPION WRIGHT. Mr. A. E. Wright is one of the leading tennis players of the country. He is a member of the Manhattan Athletic Club and is attending tho law course in Columbia College, having gradu- ated from Trinity College im 1888. He has been playing tennis about ten years, but did not take part in the leading tournaments until 1887, when he played at Newport. At that time ho was defeated by Caipbeli, the presont champion of theUnited States, in the round pre- ceding the senior fi At Springfield, Mass., he won the first prize in doubles and the second in singles, defeating Brinley. In the tropical championship tournament at St. Augustine, Fia., he carried off the fir prize in doubles and the second in singles. He entered a number of the leading tournaments and with different partners won the first prize. His record this year in singles has been very fine. He carried off the first prize in singles in the following tournaments: Middle states tour- nament at Rochester, N. Berkley Athletic Club open tournament ‘and the Orange, N. ¥., tournament, He was one of seven chosen from New York to take part in the invitation tournament held at Westchester, N.¥., when all the best players of the country entered. In the New England championship tournament he secured the second prize in sinles. Perhaps the most interesting event of the day was the struggle for the first prize in the doubles. Messrs. MeCawley and Woodward were matched against Messis, Beach and Thompson and their game was a good exhibi- tion of play in the doubles, MeCawley and Woodward, however, played the weakest game only The next set was more strongly contested and deuce games be- came frequent; the visitors, however, finally the score of 6-4. In the next set was more uniform and each game drawn out. Finally the growing dark- ness put aa end to the contest for the day when the set stood six all in games, The match will be finished today, In the playing for the prizes in the doubles open ouly to the District players, Peter Peter beat McCawley and Davidson, 2-6; 1 6-3. ——_.

John Marshall Gets Six Months for Housebreaking. In the Criminal Court, Chief Justice Bing- ham, today John Marshall, a colored boy, con- victed om 15th instant of housebreaking in stores of C, D. Reckwig on the 7th of August, was called for sentence. Being «well grown boy, probably seventcen years old, but having the fear of the penitentiary, he gave the age of fifteen, hoping to receive a sentence to the Reform School. Counsel Car- rington did not agree with the boy as to his age, id Assistant District Attorney Clagett gave the court the information that the pris- oner had served two sentences in jail for lar- cseny. The court, in sentencing him, said that the jail was not a success for the reformation of boys, for there was no work there, and he hoped that some arrangement could be made for the employment of boys and young men who were sentenced there. In this case, how- ever, he was diposed to give him another opportunity of escaping the penitentiary, and sentenced him to six months in jail. ARRAIGNMENTS AND PLEAS. B.
