The en- trance will probably be on York street. This will do away with the old alleys in the basement of the fymnui um. Improvements are now being made in the engine room of the gymnasium €0 that all the new buildings can be heated by the same system. There will also be a room for tables adjoining the bowling alleys. A door is to be-eut |- into the gymnasfum and one into the baseball cage, 50 that athletes who use the new track can reach it from the cage or gymnasium. i ank Whitman, who has charge the baseball cage and who built the dirt floor, said that it was intended to last one year, but it has been used three years, and it will be used again the coming season. Three hundred loads of loug were carted for this floor and therb is a mixture of clay in {t Very few repairs have been neces- sary and it has been very satisfactory. The top-soil was scraped and there are few holes to plug up. The banks for the distance runners were not satisfactory, as the timber was not put in according to the grain. The result was many crevices and at times runners had their spikes it in the openings and were spilled. Whitman has had four new banks made and they are a great improvement over tae old ones. ‘With the new running track in opera- tion, the distance runners will have more opportunity to pragtice in the cage. The pole vaulters will work in the new addition anq the jumpers and weight men will practice In the cage as heretofore when it is not used by the baseball squads. The soccer players can use the cage late in the afternoor when it is not otherwise engaged, and the soccer men also have the use of the cage at night. The baseball players have the use of the cage from 11 a, m. to § p. m., but they seldom appear for practice before 1 p. m. Manager Bunker of the track team has been spending part of the summer st Watch Hill, where he recently enter- ned his predecssor, E. J. Stackpol, Jr. The new covered running track is io be built according to the ideas of Johnny Mack, who has long recognized the necessity of such an addition to ihe Yale track equipment.

Y., Sept. 8—In the most remarkable exhibition of doubles tennis play witnessed in this country in many years, Willlam M. Johnston ang Clarence J. Griffin, both of San Francisco, wrested the championship from the three-time ‘holders, Maurice E. MoLoughlin of San 0 and Thomas C. Bundy of Los Angeles, here this afternoon. by scores of 2-6, 6-3, -4, 3-6, 6-3. No more thrilling climax to the 85th annual championship tour- nament of the National Lawn Tennis association could have been staged. For more than two hours the four California racquet stars engaged in a court battle that aroused unbounded enthusiasm among the 7,000 spectators that filled the grandstands and club- house galieries. How closely the con- test was waged is shown by the fact that the victors won 23 games and 153 points to the losers’ 22 games and 154 points. Johnston and MeLoughlin stood out @s the individual stars of FINANCIAL AND COMMERGIAL MARKET ‘WAS APATHETIC. Impartant Stocks Moved Irregularly on Light Offerings. New Fork, Sept. 8. —Apathy, result- Ing mainly from lack of patronage, was egain the most pronounced feature of today’s market session. Importaht stocks, that is to say, Investment is- sues, moved irrégtldily on light offer- ings, few fluctuating more than a point, while speciaities, chiefly war shares, moved back and forth as so many pawns in the speculative game. There .were several exceptions to Crucible Steel, these ascending to their highest quotations since the sinking of the Arabic became a market factor. Bethlehem Steel's best price was 302, 2 gain of 12 points, and Crucible Steel at 89 3-8 showed & maximum advance of 5. Crucible led all the industrials in activity except United States Steel, its rise being accompanied by a variant ot the old rumor of additional war con- tracts and buying by banking interests for control. United States Steel was under mild pressure until the final hour, when it advanced to 75 1-8, a gain’ of 3-4 on heavy buying which ranged from 1,000 to over 3,000 shares in individual lots. The entire list be- came more active and comparatively strong towards the end, the excellent government crop report infusing re- newed interest and causing short cov- ering. Among the few stocks whose strength was traceable to definite con- ditions was Western Union Telegraph, which rose two points to 77, its best price since 1912, on an increase of the dividend from a 4 to 5 per cent. basis. Advices dealing with the steel and iron trade’ were decidedly optimistic, in- cluding some substantial new orders for railway equipment. The conditions of the industry is summed up in the statement that new records- for pro- duction are -being made. Total sales amounted to 425,000 shares. Foreign exchange ceased to be a pri- { mary consideration, although rates on London moved uncertainly. Official figures issued in connection with the arrival of the third consignment of gold and American” securities from London via Halifax were much below recent estimates. ‘Bond trading was distinguished for the reduced offerings from abroad, these being less than 50 per cent, of yesterday's, Total sales, par value, aggregated $2,755,000. United States resistered threes gain- en one point and the coupon threes and fours, as well as Panama coupon and regiaered threes. one-half per cent. on call.

Gatun Lake, at a surface ele- vation of 85 feet, is estimated to cover 164 square miles, and extends not mere- 1y over the previously swampy ground of the Chagres Valley, but it has risen 80 far above the floor of the lowlands as to extend for miles between the hills, forming estuaries, lagoons, and ponds, turning rapid, unnavigable streams into deep, sluggish rivers, and converting hilltops into beautiful islands, some of them miles in length, while thousands of acres of flooded and fallen timber, into which stretch or circle narrow necks of land, practically defy and accurate estimate of the so- calied shore-line of the new lake. “No ome yet accurately knows the size and shape of the new lake. Much of its far-reaching, irregular, surface is veiled by whole forests which break through its waters, a dying jungle- barrier to a knowledge of the inland sea. When these obstructing forests and bushes are at last destroyed by the warm waters of the flooded and per:- manent fringes of bamboo and other semi-aquatic growths mark the line of the shore, then the heretofore half. shrouded lake will glisten, near and far, in the tropic lights, while the sur- rounding shores, each bay and promon- tory, and the islands, big and little, will ‘stand out sharply defined. 16 will then be difficult to realize that this lake is the work of man. 'As the lake swelled from a pond into a sea, the Indians of Panama saw all their notions of inland navigation swept by the board. They had been accustomed to poling or paddling in the swiftest streams in their cayuca, or dug-out, but they found that no one among them knew how to handle the canoe under the new conditions brought about by the lake. “The Indians, however. were the PUBLIC FISH MARKET 77 Franklin Street SPECIAL THIS WEEK LARGEANDMEDIUMMACKEREL,II:. censivesvew B least of sufferers caused by the magic of the lake has worked a appearance. of the Iake. .There are|siderable damage upon the life forests of fine trees slowly dying, as|was there before, but, unlike tife is a luxurious mass of jungle plant- | changes wrought in European geogra- life.
