Y, Aug. 28—In a series of bitterly fought matches in which endurance played as prominent a part as skill, the majority of the leading tennis players of the country forced thelr way to the fore in the third day of the annual natlonal sin- glés tennis champlonshlp being stag- od on the courts of the West Side Tennis club, But two of the more prominent players escaped the nec- essity of guing through a fourth or fifth sei hefore victory was theirs, The two outstanding favories, R. Lindley Murray, the Californian expert. play- ing for Nlagara Falls, and W, T, Til- den, Jr, of Philadeiphia, were the ones to demonstrate their cause with- out delay. Murray disposed of. Theodore R. Pell of New York, noted for sugeriority of his backhand play, in straignt sets at 8-2, 6-0, 6-0, Murray showed the re. sult of his play and practice during the past week and appears to be rap- idly rounding into the form which has made him so formidable in the past few years., Murray's terrific service and emashing forced Pell on the de- fense the greajer part of the time, Tilden in eliminating Conrad B. Doyle of Washington at 6-3, 6-1, can be sald in a general way to have been in the same category with Mur- ray Doyle put up a gallant fight against the towering Philadelphian, but the superiority of the latter was entirely too great to be overcome. The break of the draw gave Ichiyl Kumagae an off day but his coun- tryman, Selyichro Kashio, figured in another extremely long drawn.out court battle which twilight found un- finished. Eatly in the afternoon he re- sumed the uncompleted match of yes- terday against G. A. L, Dionne and won the deciding set at 7-5. Shortly after 4 o'clock Kashio wen. on the court again againstLyle E. Mahan of New York and the pair indulged In a bitter battle which ended at 7.30 with the score etanding 108, 10-8, 6-8, six all in Mahan's favor. Other five-set matches included the victory of Cadet S. H. Voshell of Brook!yn over Vincent Richards, the vouthful phenomenon of the east. Richards with the aid of his sharp chop strokes and 'fore-cour won the first two sets at T Voshell's stamina and great exper(- ence then began to tell and by rush- ing to the net every opening and by hammering Richards’ returns he won three straight sets at 6-0, 6-2, 7-5 Frederick B. Alexander of New York, the veteran of many interna- onal tennis matches, won a somewhat similar vietory from Harold’ Throck morton of Elizabeth, N. J., losing the first two sets at 2-6, 3-G. and winning out at 7.5, 6-0, 6-3 due to his great- steadiness and unconquered fight- spirit. The two Chicago ontrants. Walter T. Hayes and Ralph Burdick, liefor: tle eastern oppon experience but *ictor g The wdvantage being his great steadindss, accuracy and ability to closely parallel the side lines for passing shots. Walter Merrill Hall of New York eliminated Hayes in five set match which threatened to equal in duration that of yesterday between Kashio and Dionne. Hall finally emerged the winner, due more to his staying powers than anything else at 3-6, 6-4, 0-6, 6-4. The veteran Bessle C. Wright of Boston. but en- tered from New York also entered the fourth round by winning from Lind- sy Dunham of Rahway at 6-4, 6-2, 6-3 and will meet ‘Kumagae in one of the feature matches tomorrow.

The old time drider, Frank Van Ness, who has been in France for the past ten or twelve years, and who has been in the battle zone as a veterinary dentists since the beginning of the war. returned to America August 5, in charge of eight race horses owned by John Sanford of Amsterdam, X. Van Ness is getting along as he was born in Fairport. N. Y. in 1850, and besgan racing in Grand Cir- cuit company in 1872, when he brought out the Gooding’s Champion gelding, St. James, which he raced from coast to coast and sold to Lucky Baldwin for $13,000, after he had | given him a record of 2:23% and won | over $15,000 with him. He Littie Albermarle was his next pupil, was succeeded by Bonesetter, Brown Jug, Rabert McGregor, Fred Douglas and France’s Alexander, be- fore Van Ness removed from Roches- ter, N. Y. to Lexington, Ky., and began developing the get of George Wilkes which was then allrachng world-wide {attention. While in Kentucky Van Ness brought out The King, Alcyone, Albert France, Lumps, Isaac and Sister Wilkes, while he was also very fortunate in getting Harry Wilkes the greatest trotter in the family. Frank made his first campaigh with him in 1884 when he won sixteen out of nineteen starts, one of them being $10,000 Charter Oak Purse at Hartford. At that time the horse was ownél by W. C. France but Van Ness continued to train him after he passed to James H. Temple and Sire Brothers for whom he -also raced Gossip, Jr. and that splendid mare Rosalind Wilkes in the first flight of light harness performers. After going over to the runners Van Ness had a fair run of success, but hmis greatest triumph was scored in 1892 when he won the Futurity with the hundred dollar colt Murello. Later on he located in the west and raced in Montana and California before going l to France. el Labii oD THE RIVALS. Mabel Trask and. St. sco are the most evenly matched pair of trotters that wefe ever seen on the turf. Both of them carry race records of 2:01% and while the number of victories are in favor of the mare, it looks as though Geer's horse has the best of the argument and is very apt to step a heat in two minutes or better in the free for all at Hartford on Labor Day. In ordég to bring these trotters together again at Charter Oak Park, the .Connecticut Fair Association of- n years | Bertha Dillon declined the battl came forward with a second Rick in Lu Princeton, the stout batt won in 2:02% and 2:03% at { Randall. These three great North trotters present a peculiar study for those who are interested in the whims of stars from prima donnas to game chickens. St. Frisco is a plain everyday body in the horse world. His bump of curios- ity is well developed but as soon as he familiarizes himself with his sur- roundings he never shows a disposi- tion to make a rough house so lon as he gets what is coming to him the way of hay and oats and a few carrot Lu Princeton is so lazy that he will not move out of his tracks un- less ordered and sometimes persuaded to do so with an application of the whip. He trots all of his races under protest and never breaks away flying until he is satisfied that evel ready for business. In the stable his only worry is a constant fear that the man with the feed box will fail to come early and often. If he was not owned by a rich man, he would eat him out of house and home. On the other hand Mabel Trask is as demure and polite as the horse kind can be and while as wilful as a spoiled child, those in control of her make it a point to see that she is not crossed in any- thing so long as it does not interfere with her racing. When being jogged if she stops to look around a minute or two, no one disturbs her until she is ready to move on. Also when being trained or raceq she is treated differ- ently from other horses. Instead of being tied both ways or walked she is turned loose in the box stall as soon as she comes in from the track and allowed to eat all the hay she wants or to take a drink if she feels'so dis- posed. Her groom also manages to take care of her physical wants as she {moves about in the stall and when the race or work is over instead of having an empty stomach, she is ready to have a sncoze as soon as she has cooled out.

This, same president went to France as a Y. M. C. A, worker and while there he met the man whom he did not deem worthy to play against the Wesleyan men in army uniform. Bnickley certainly proved himself worthy and he fully proved Trinity's statement that she counted only schol- astic standing and manhood as re- quirements for her athletes, In one army camp in this country within sixty miles of four big league baseball teams the mep do not even ask for the baseball results at the Y.
