The contest for the championship will be warmer than usual this year, from ‘the fact that several new players have ap- peared on the courts. It is predicted that more entries will be made than ever be- fore. Among the best players now bere are Freeman, '99, Picher, '98, Arnold, '95, and Kaetzel, '96.

After that date two_interciass games will come off each week until the championship has been de- cided. The practice game on Saturday was wit- nessed by several Berkeley students. After the game was terminated, one of them, a well-known University Club foot- ball man, stated that he thought the prac- tice very creditable and fully up to work across Alvares and recognized him ac once. e ———— The chief exponents of music iy Japan are women.

Address at the Opening Dellvered by Governor McConnell of Idaho. SPOKANE, Wasm., Sept. 30.—With bright weather the second annual fruit fair of Spokane opened under most auspicious circumstances this afternoon. The opening address was made by Governor McConnell of Idaho, the fair being rather an exhibit for Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho than for Washington alone. The weather is promising, and large excursion parties are arriving. It is estimated that during the ten days there will be an at- tendance of over 50,000. The Spokane annual fruit fair is the grandest event of the season in this section of the country, and, although this is but the second fair of the kind, it has at once sprung into great popularity. With East- ern Washington one of the greatest fruit- producing sections of the United States, this kind of an exposition brings out its resources in that line, and the population of this section will turn out almost en masse to attend the fair. Last year the fair was arranged hur- riedly, but was a success. This year, in the hands of a committee of good citizens, & temporary frame structure has been erected covering over a block of land, and the demand for space has been so great that late comers have been refused. fimm the rich Colville valley on the north to the celebrated Lewiston on the south, from the broad Pend d’Oreille on the east to the h toric Walla Walla on the west, every sec- tion is represented.

During the next ten days of the fair a number of conventions have been arranged to meet in this city. Among them are the Northwest Miners’ Association, at which it is expected there will be over 1000 dele- gates; the Country Press Association, the Reform Press Association, the Freeman's Silver Federation, Teachers’ Convention and several small conventions. The Kruit Fair building bas been crowded all the day. Special attractions are billed for each day. Two military bands are in attendance, which in themseives have }E_roven sufficient to attract large crowds. o-morrow will be Palouse day, and three enecial excursions will come up from that section of the country to bring people to the fair. e AWFUL FALL AT NAPA.
