The tennis playing this week will be mostly on New England courts, as nearly all the active players who took part in the Longwood tournament are booked for the annual tournament of the Newcastle Out- ing and Tennis Club at New Castle, N. H.., says the New York Sun. This ts one of the oldest tournaments in the country, being held annually since 1882. Both singles and doubles wili be played, the first games to take place on Tuesday, July 28. There are no challenge cups to be contested for, but first and second prizes will be awarded in each contest. Fisher, Budlong, Ware, Scud- der, Paret and many other cracks will com- pete. Champion Hovey has consented to play a series of exhibition games, but will not compete in the regular tourney. After the New Castle event comes the Norwood Park invitation tournament, which {!s usually relied upon to furnish data upon which to base championship cal- culations. R. D. Wrenn, Stevens, Neel and George Wrenn have accepted invitations. but the remaining two players of the usua! six have not yet been decided upon. Hovey rarely competes more than 100 miles aw: from Roston, snd may be counted out. Larned ané@ Foote show no signs of return- ing to America as yet, and Howland is playing base ball in the few intervals he takes from his medical studies. The Nor- wood management will have to be content with some younger players. This will be Carr Neel’s first appearance in the east this year, and his chances for the cham- pionsnie will be pretty well tested. The New H&mpshire state championship will take care of the players left out of the Long Branch event, as play will begin the game day as at Norwood. The New Hamp- shire championship begins at Centre Har- bor on Monday, August 3. P. Paret of New York holds the championship cup, and will meet the winner of the tournament for the chaHenge cup. There will be first, runner- up and consolation prizes in the singles, and first and runner-up prizes in the dou- bies.

German Could Not Keep Up His Good German pitched magnificcnt ball for four innirgs at Louisville Saturday, but from the fifth on to the end he was tapioca for the Colonels, who drove out hit after hit and continued to tally. Louisville played a horrible game in the field and if Wash- ington could only have hit Hill a bit more effectively the game would have been won.

Views of a Star Correspondent With the Senators. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 25, 1896. After being up against the Chicago and Cleveland game for a week, the club met the tail-enders on something like equal terms, and got the first scalp. There is con- siderable rivalry between the two teams on actount of the recent deal, and both sides have been talking for a fortnight past what they intended to do in this series. And Jack Crooks—poor Crooks, who has been telling everybody in Louisville about taking four straight—was responsible for the defeat. He muffed a thrown ball, fumbled Joyce's easy grounder, and made a bad throw, each misplay causing a run. Jack felt so bad about it that even his old partners sym- pathized with him. ‘Jimmy’ Rogers has a touch of malaria and did not play. They think he is the greatest first baseman in the league down here. “Jimmy” was a Senator again for a while Thursday, in that he rode out to the grounds and returned to the hotel with his old comrades. Mercer reappeared in the box, after a short rest, and pitched great ball, four of the seven hits made off him being infield scratches. His batting also was timely. Joyce's fielding was a feature; in fact, the captain's third-base play is being praised everywhere, the Chicago Tribune observing that’ “Joyce put up the best game for the visitors, and is one of the fastest and most accurate third basemen seen on the grounds this year.” There was a noticeable improvement in team work in the Cleveland games, and, though the Sentitors were shut out twice within five hourg, they played the game for all it was worth, there being a refreshing absence of “ifs’:and “ands” in playing the games over after dinner. The pitching of Wallace “and Wilsdn was the stumbling block. In the last 'zame they hit Cuppy harder than he has, been hit this season. Seventeen hits and five runs seem out of proportion, but the explanation is that nine of the seventeen were made after two men Were out, and went’ for naught. It would puzzle a of Wards, Hanlons, Tebe ngg to decide whether the Washingtons are, wdak as hitters, or weak in the box, or on the-bases. Just as soon as one concludes they:are weak in any one of these departmehts/4he next game or two upsets all his arguments. Pitcher Win Mgrder undoubtedly has been va target for ugh undeserved offticism since the club 4egan losing. The writer, from personal observation, is in a position to say that no member of the team is taking better care of himself or trying harder to win games than Mercer. The Cincinnati episode, of course, looked bad for him, but the trouble was really brought about by the men back of the pitcher’s box. Mercer has been overworked; with the possible excep- tion of Killen and Nichols, he has pitched more games than any other pitcher in the league, and has won eighteen out of twenty- six games. He is unquestionably the most willing worker in the league today, and has gone in the box in and out of his turn ume and again to help win a game, as his record will show. The best evidence that Mercer is not shirking duty that he has been in uniform and out for practice or on the coach lines in every game the elub has played on this trip. In Cincinnati his en- thusiasm on the coach lines cost him $20, and was paid into the league treasury only a few days ago. There are a few attractive ball parks in the National League circuit, but the Chi- cago grounds are unquestionably the neat- est and most comfortable of the western cities. Grand stand and bleachers encircle the entire play ground, with the exception that in center field are two pretty club houses—one for the use of visiting teams. Several hundred feet of canvas are stretched back of the right field bleachers to shut off the view from a dozen verandas, and on this screen the one advertisement in the park is displayed. Grand stand, bleachers and fences are nattily attired in'a pleasing color combination of lemon and maroon, with white edgings. Many a kick made by players on the ball field appears unreasonable to spectators, simply because they do not happen to un- derstand what the “kick” is about, and often when the auditors think players are protesting on a base decision, it Is really on a point of “blocking” or interference, which escapes the average eye. An in- stance of this kind occurred in the second Cleveland game, and from a player’s point of view was as follows: De Montreville, in trying to make a double play, was jabbed under the jaw by a Cleveland base runner and failed to make the play. O’Brien ob- jected; but Hurst said it was all right. ‘Does everything go?” queried O'Brien. Yes, everything goes,” replied Hurst. When McGarr, shortly after, was blocked off second by O'Brien, and skimmed around to third without touching the base, Hurst called him safe because of O'Brien's “in- terference.” O'Brien naturally got hot under the collar. He kept on referring to this play, and was finally put out of the game; and probably nine-tenths of the au- dience were under the impression that the trouble started about the decision on third, when the runner was clearly safe. At one stage of the argument Hurst pinched O'Brien, and John mussed up Tim’s neck- wear. Then Tim said he would see John after the game;‘ard O’Brien retorted that he would be titkifd to have the chance. It all ended very; pleasantly, however. Ball players say John-O'Brien knows more about the manly art than‘ any other man in the league. ven Bad luck, in theWway of accidents, still pursues the Washingtons. A hard-hit line ball from Blak&G bat struck King on the forearm last Tuesday, and will put him out of the game fo¥ several days. In today’s Louisville game ‘Abbey was hit over the left eye by one of Hill's swift balls and fell to the ground like.a lag. The accident caused considerable exatteitent, players and spec- tators being underlthe impression that the ball had hit him op the temple and that Abbey had gonk td, the plate for the last time. He recovered;sufficiently to return to town in the players! ‘bus, and is now un- a. physicianis care. der a physician's Pitcher Nortdn of the defunct Atlanta club joined the Washingtons here. Norton is said to be a promising player, a fast run- ner and good batsman. He is about as tall as McJames and weighs 168 pounds. In practice he used a fast underhand ball, and his style resembles that of Pitcher Rhines. Norton entered the profession from the Ohio State University, where he studied electrical engineering. Pat Tebeau, in speaking of Washington's drop the other day, said he could not un- Gerstand the club's losing streak. “With Joyce, O'Brien, De Montreville and Cart- wright you-have an excellent infield,” he observed. “Your outfield is fast; you have three good twirlers and the club is strong behind the plate. How you lose so often is a mystery to me.” Another case of the un- certainties of base ball—like the Phillies being dead sure pennant winners in April. Capt. Joyce's first-to-bat theory is evi- dently not very popular among captains of western clubs. Was bas been sent first to bat in every game on the trip. There are several among the Sen- tors whose voices even defeat cannot sub- lue. Their favorite eir sow something ike “We May Have Seen Better Days.” John O'Brien's cordial reception the uisville players will probably set at rest e stories that O’Brien had nothing but enemies among the Colonels. ape Washington = ee a cratnes iscouraging western trip, there is som fistaotionsin eat mdering over the fact that Brooklyn and Philadelphia have done lit- tle better, and that the Senators are not out of the race for the head of the second division. J. A. H. MERCER NOT A SECOND WINNER. Louisville Took Kindly to His Curves Yesterday. Mercer went up against Loulsville once too often. Yesterday he essayed to pitch and lost because the Colonels lined out his curves whenever they wanted to advance men. The tallenders played a remarkable game in the field, executing a triple play in the first inning that startled everybody. The Senators did not begin to break the ice until Louisville had banged out six runs, ard then it was too late. That triple play in the first was pecullar. O'Brien and Selbach had hit safely, and De Montreville followed with a drive at Crooks, who held the ball and threw to the plate in time to give Betts a chance to call O’Brien out, although the runner was clearly safe. Dexter threw to Cling- man and nailed Selbach at third, and thea the ball was shot over the diamond in time te head off DeMontreville, who had started for second. Probably a bit of intelligent base running, savored by some reasonable coaching, would have saved the Senators from this ignominy, Louisville followed up this brilliant bit of field work- by making three earned runs in the first and.two in the second. Singles were drawn on Mer- cer with appalling frequency. In the fifth Lush sent the ball to the score board for a homer. In the sixth Sel- bech tallied on a buse on balls, and singles by Joyce and McGutre. These men stole tcgether, but Tom Brown was called out on strikes and the side was retired. In the eighth, after De Montreville and Joyce had hit safely, McGuire pushed the sphere over the wall to the distillery, scor- ing three runs and giving Washington a show for the white alley. In the ninth the Senators came within an ace of tying the sccre or of winning. With Cartwright out, Lush walked and Mercer sacrificed, Rog- ers to Cassidy. O'Brien gent one to Crooks, who threw to Hill at first. The pitcher kindly dropped the ball and Lush scored. Then Selbach tried for a single to left, but Rogers was in the way, and the game was over. The Senators left at once for Brooklyn, where they play tomorrow, Wednesday and Thureday, returning here for the game with Baltimore Friday. The score: POTOMAC REGATTA Interesting Baces to Be Rowed Next Saturday. LIVELY INTEREST IN THE EVENTS The Evening Star Cup and Other Handsome Trophies. ON THE UPPER COURSE What with the excitement of political conventions and the coming and going of the army of Christian Endeavorers, the people of Washington have to a certain ex- tent lost sight, it would seem, of the an- nual Potomac river regatta that is to be rowed next Saturday afternoon. This event has been well planned in advance, and judging from the number of entries that have been received, and the assurances that have been given by the local people interested in aquatics, it will prove to be as irteresting a regatta as has ever been held on the local course. The Washington, Baltimore and Phila- delphia oarsmen have been in practice for some time past for this event, which is de- signed to bring together the best handlers of the sculls in those three cities. Indeed, the position of Washington geographically and the excellence of the course here, to- gether with its freedom from interfering commerce, should combine to make the capital city a regatta center, and if the zealous efforts of the local clubs should be pursued along the lines that have been fol- lowed during the past two years for a few More seasons doubtless this result will be attdined. On the Upper Course. The committee in charge of the regatta has decided that the races shall be rowed on what is known as the upper course, the start being at the Potomac boat house, at the foot of 31st street. This will carry the crews under the Aqueduct bridge to a stakeboat, three-quarters of a mile up- river, at which point a turn will be made. There 1s one exception to this rule. T! race for eight-oared shells will be a mile straight-away, with the start above t bridge and the finish opposite the Potomac house. It has been thought that perhaps the piers of the bridge would obstruct the course, but the committee decided that in- stead of being a menace to the safety of ae i the crews the arches of the bridge ought to Cee Te ee WASHINGTON: 4p |eerve as guides to mark out the lanes s, 2b. 1°25 2 6.O'Brien, 200 1 0 4 6| Within which the crews should row.

The Reds had an easy time with Patsy Tebeau’s thugs yesterday in a base ball sense, and came near making mince-meat out of those gentle young men from a pugilistic point of view. All was quiet un- til the eighth, when, after making a muff of a throw to catch Burke, Catlds deliber- ately threw the runner, who went after “Cupid” with his fists, pummeling his face severely before the other players separated them. Burke won all the points and Childs all the bruises. The crowd, numbering over 20,000, poured on the field, and the police Prevented a riot, and prctected the Cleve- land players with great difficulty. After the game the spectators made another rush at Tebeau’s gang, but the police had formed a circle around them, and thus they were escorted to their "bus amid the Jeers and imprecations of thousands. The score tells the story of a one-sided game. CINCINNATI. CLEVELANI RHO. RH. Burke, If.. 2 Hoy, ef....2 3 5 O21 133 128 tei Aes 004 Foreman, p 2 2 0 ‘Tota 10 16 27 Cincinnati Cleveland Young, 3.

It has been suggested to the local committee that the arches of the Aqueduct bridge be marked in the same way, there being placards at both the up and down-stream sides. An Opportanity for the People. At all events the selection of the upper course will give opportunity for a far &reater number of people to view the races than can possibly see the course when the start is made at the Analostan club house and the finish or the stakeboat is near the L bridge. The latter course has usually been adopted, and this year the regatta committee feel justified in making the ex- periment. With ordinary —coxswainship there ought to be no fouling of the pier: and the danger of fouling between crews is largely eliminated. Doubtless Aqueduct bridge will be thronged with thousands of people Saturday afternoon, and the shores of the river from the start to the finish will be lined by many more. ‘The Evening Star Cup. There will be six races, the program of last year being folicwed very closely. The mcst important of the races is that for the senior four-oared shells for The Evening Star cup, which was presented in 18%? to be rewed for ennually on a one and one- half-mile course. This handsome trophy has been held successively as follows: In 1882, Columbia Boat Club, Washington; 1883, Hillsdale Boat Cluv, Hillsdale, Mic igan; 1884, Potomac Boat Club of this city ISs5, Columbia Beat Club of this city; ISS Potomacs; 1887, Potomacs; 1888, Passaic of Newark, N.J., which club held it until the regatta of 1893, when it was won by the Analostans cf this cit In 1894 the Tolum- Dias recovered it, ing three wins for that club to three for the Potomacs. Last year the cup was won by the Pennsylyanis Barge Club of Philadelphia, which now has possession of this handsome trophy, known as one of the most desirable prizes ever given at an eastern regatta. In addition to the cup the winning crew is presented with a banner of maroon silk, handsomely embroidered and appropriately inscribed, and each member of the crew receives a gold medal. Other Prizes. The prize fo> the junior four-oared sheils is the Mason cup, presented in 18S by James D. Mason & Company. It is open to crews from the District and Baltimore enly, and becomes the exclusive property of the club winning it at three successive regattas. It was won in ’S3 by the Po- tcmacs, in "84 by the Columbias, in '85 by the Analostans, in "86 by the Potomacs, in "s7 by the Ariels of Baltimore, in "#2 by the Columbias and again in ‘93 ‘by the same crew, which thus had the best chance that any crew kas yet been given to obtain the absolute ownership of this handsome trophy. In 184, however, ethe Analostans pulled away from the Columbias in a lively race, and thus took temporary possession of the cup. Last year the Ariels of Balti- more won handily, beating Columbia by four lengths, with the Analostans third. The first prize in the race for intermedi- ate eights is the cup donated by the Wash- ington Post. It was won last year by the Baltimore Athletic Club crew. There are other prizes for the other events, which include races for ior shells, junior four-oared shells, light-weight four-oared shells and junior eight-cared shells. Mr. Gordon S. Carrigan of the Schuylkill navy, Philadelphia, has been chosen as referee. He has a wide reputa- tion for ability and fairness in this ca- pacity. It is expected that a large number of Baltimore “rooters” will come over Satu; day to see the races and cheer on thei favorites, the Arlels, and the Baltimore Athletic Club crews that are to be here to REO ST.

From the Philadelphia Press. “Kid” Gleason was in town yesterday, having left the New York olub at Pitts- burg, to visit his brother, who was badly injured on the railroad in Camden a few days ago. In discussing the base ball sit- vation with a number. of admirers, Gleason said he thought Cincinnati was playing a gait that was entirely too fast to last long. He thought the players of the Baltimore and Cleveland teams would again share the receipts of the Temple cup games and that the former had a good chance of getting the pennant. He-said he was tired acting es captain of the New York team and would tender his resignation to President Freédman today.

The financial arrangements for the re- gatta are nearly completed, but it may be that the committee in charge will find itself confronted with a deficit of about $150. ‘The ‘regatta will take place, however, nevertheless, and it is the hope of the com- mittee that subscriptions in a sufficient sum will be made between now and Satur- Or Made of Distilied Artesian Water. cece ements pein ate Ay oOnsumers of Ice —as well as ICE DESLERS —can reduce their bills ONE- HALF—by sending here for their daily supply-of Ice.
