SUTTON GIRLs WIN ALL HONORS Will Divide First Prizes of Coast Tourna- ment. — Finals in Tennis Champion- ships to Be Determined To-Day. e As a result of the first day's play of the women's singles tournament for the champlonghip of the coast, but three wo- men are left to contend for first honors, and they are all Suttons. Ethel Sutton won her semi-final match and is therefore sure of playing in the finals this after- noon, while May and Florence will play this morning to determine who will be Ethel's opponent in the finals. May and Florence carried off the hon- ors yesterday., The former showed by her play that singles are more to her Jiking than either doubles or mixed dou- bles, while Florence seems to play equally well in all three. The first match played yesterday, in which May Sutton was opposed to Violet, was expected to be the closest kind of a struggle, but the former caused a genuine surprise by making the match a runaway affair. The score in $avor of May was 6—2, 6—1. The winner played brilliant ten- nis, but Violet was a trifle nervous and hardly at her best. Many of the games were very close and the match was more keenly contested than the score indicates, In this match May played by far the best game she has put up since her arrival at San Rafael. . Violet is very gpuch stronger in doubles than in single: In the other match of the preliminary round, Miss Seymour of Southern Califor- nia defeated rs. Haslett of Alameda, the score belng 7—5, 7—5. The contestants were very evenly matched and the out- come was in doubt until the last point was made. Mrs. Haslett made a much better showing than was expected, and but for a lack of practice might have won. The first round brought Florence Sutton and Alice Hoffman together, and while the former was expected to win, Miss Hoffman was thoight to have a chance. Miss Sutton played a beautiful game, and at mo stage of the game _was the result in doubt, as Miss Hoff- {man was unable to get a game in _either set. The score -in favor of Miss Sutton was 6—0, 6—0. This is a much_worse beating tt Marion Jones gave Miss Hoffman, and makes Miss Sut- ton’s chances of winning the tournament look very bright. In justice to Miss Hoff- man it should Le said that she was very nervous and did not play her best game. Misg Sutton was cool at all times, and her headwork was admirable. She passed her opponent at will. Miss Ethel Sutton next played Miss Sey- mour, whom she defeated rather easily. The score in favor of the former was Mrs. Seymour was expected to beat Mrs. Kincaid without an effort, but to the sur- prise of everybody the local lady won a set quite easily after losing the first set, ¢6—0. The complete score in favor of Mrs. Seymour was 6—0, 1—, 6—3. Mrs. Kincaid was greatly handi a lack of tournament experience, being only the second tournament in which she had ever played. She was extremely nervous throughout the match, and would un- doubtedly have done better but for this. Ethel Sutton has all along been con- sidered the poorest player of the four sisters, but her match with Mrs. Seymour showed that she is very little behind her sisters in point of skill. Mrs. Seymour played her best, but was beaten 6—1, 6—3. Miss Sutton’s Smashing to the deep cor- rs of the court was particularly good. The last match of the day was between May Sutton and Ruby Garland of Ojai Valley. In spite of the fact that Miss Sutton won by the one-sided score of | 61, 6—1, the maich was very close and exciting. Many ' deuce, vantage games | were played, but Miss Sutton won nearly I of them by her clever driving and | smashing. At times Miss Garland played a brilliant game, but her opponent was much too steady for her. | Colonel Seymour offered prizes this af- ternoon_for a special doubles match be- | tween May and Ethel and Violet and Florence Sutton. After a close match, which required the full three sets, Violet and Florence finally carried off the hon- ore in their favor being T This morning’s match between May and Florence Sutton will surely be the best of the tournament, and although the for- mer is expected to win, the chances of | Floren e considered very good. She | is probably not as brilliant as May, and lacks her speed, but she is far superior to the 1 in headwork. Florence is | very steady and plays a great get-back game, which counts y much in a tour- nament -match.

The weather was all that could have been desired and an enormous crowd was in attend- anee. The number of visitors is estimated at 20,00. The opening ceremonies were preceded by a monster street parade, in which Miss Ivy B. Barker of Portland, queen of the carnival, was the central figure. The first event was the four-oared barge race, the contesting crews being the South Ends and Olympics. The course was one and one-half miles with a turn. The Olympics took the lead at the start, and rowing a thirty-eight stroke were well ahead at the stake. - Coming home the boats had to buck a strong current, and the strength of the South Ends told plainly. Shortly after the stake was rounded the South Ends took the lead and held it to the finish, having a lead of five lengths, = They Towed an easy race throughout; while the Olympics were in distress on the homestretch.

Gloss has here- tofore been a junior, and his performance to-day was an_excellent one. ; There were two entries in the junior ot Qutrigger ekiff race, Tharning of Alameda and Sherry of the Olympic Club. Thorn- ing had things his own way to the stake, where he had a lead of three lengths. In rounding he exercised poor judgmert and Sherry secured a lead of four lengths on Thorning’s blunder. Sherry won by three lengths. Time, 11:02. Two heats are yet to be rowed and Thorning is hopeful of success. To-morrow the senior barge champion- ship race will occur. The contesting crews are the South Ends and Alamedas. The latter now hold the championship. To-night the queen was crowned with roses at the regatta ball. The ceremoay ‘was of a most intere ng character. An unknown man was drowned on the course to-day while swimming. He was seized with cramps near the flagship and sank before assistance could reach him. The body has not been recovered.

ST Y WOODLAND, Aug. 29.—Interest in the | fair is increasing, for the attendance to- day was the largest ever seen at the track. Nearlyall business in town was sus- pended and the Woodland people turned out en masse. The stock parade in the morning was even better that that of Tuesday. Stockmen of State reputation pronounced it the best of any district fair. The racing, however, was not as interesting 'as on previous days. The horses entered were high class, but not evenly matched. Sir Albert so far outclassed all others in the 2:15 pace that he was barred in the pools. Ned Thorn won his race with perfect ease. In running the five eighths of a mile, Catherine Bravo was left at the post. In the mile Boardman was left at the post, but the race was close and exciting. On Friday morning there will be another bronco busting exhibition, at which time the winners will be an- nounced.

Neither Man Will Find Any Difficulty in Reaching ‘Weight. PSSR Before the National Sporting Club ‘at the Mechanics’ Pavilion this evening Kid Carter and George Gardner will fight for superiority and Jack Kitchen will referee the contest. At a meeting in Harry Cor- bett's yesterday afternoon the question of referee came up and was decided without much ado, although some slight delay oc- curred before a final settlement was reached. Several names were mentioned before that of Kitchen was proposed. Eddis Graney was found agreeable to both par- tles, but when he was consulted it was found that he had made several bets, and under the circumstances would not ac- cept the position. . Graney canceled two of his bets, but the third could not be erased from the slate because the stake- holder_could not be found. After Graney came Kitchen.
