McGavin was the bright particular star of the day. Ha had one of his good streaks yesterday, and when under its influence nothing in local tennis circles but a Whitney or a Hardy can stop him. He didn’t stop yes- terday until he landed his team in the finals, and their ¢hances for winning to- morrow's match are of the best.

They are J. D. McGavin and G. M. Smith and 8. M. Sinsabaugh and T. W. Hendricks, the latter of South- ern California. Though but six teams were on hand when play was called, the entries were unusually high and representative. Tach team, it seemed, had a fighting | chance and none could claim more. Much interest was occasioned by the entries of A. E. Bell and H. H. Braley, the South- ern California chamvions, and 8. M. Sin- sabzugh and T. W. Hendricks, their fore- most competitors in the south.

The first match of the day proved the best. After four sets of the most bril- liant tennis Smith and McGavin were pronounced the winners. But they knew they had been playing tennis; and they learned once for all what fast tennis in the hot sun means. It took twenty-two games to decide the first set. But once before has such a set been played in a tournament on the Hotel Rafael courts. That was in the mixed doubles last week. The first zet went to McGavin and Smith, as did the second, 6-4. The third was marked by a decided brace on the part of the Southerners and by a couple of hazy decisions by the umpire. The score was 6—2, with Bell and Braley on the long end. In the fourth the local team “went to it” with a rush and soon ran the score up to 4-2. Here, however, the southern champlons braced again, and by brilliant driving and terrific smashing tied the score. The next two games, set and match went to McGavin and Smith; to- tal _score—12-10, G-4, 2-6, G |, W. B. Colller and H. W. Crowell were the victors in the second match. Thelr opponents were Merle Johnson and F. L. Brown. Neither Johnson nor Brown is a good player at the double game. The score was 6—4, 6—1, 6—4. After lunch the emi-finals were com- menced. Sinsabaugh and Hendricks and Collier and Crowell were first on the courts. This match was marked by loose playing on both sides. The' local men piayed far below form, and from re- maarks by those who should know the vis- itors, though winning, did no better. The California Club team braced in the last set and showed something like their true form, but it was too_late then. After winning two sets, 7—5. §—6, Sinsabaugh and Hendricks ran up five games love on their opponents, but here they stopped a while, Collier and Crowell winning the ENDS LIFE BECAUSE g OF WIFE'S INFIDELITY Klondike Mine-Owner Takes Poison and Dies After Hours of Agony. SEATTLE, Sept. 3—D. H. Wright, mine-owner and speculator, committed suicide in Dawson on August 20 by taking polson. He died after several hours of dreadful agony. Wright was before a maglistrate a few days previously on a charge of having slapped_his wife's face on several occa- slons. He broke down and wépt bitterly and told the magistrate that a prominent rofessional man had alienated the affec- fon of his wife. He said that the man had called first on a matter of business and that_later his calls were of another nature. -Nothing is known of Wright pre- vious to his coming to the Klondike. ————— Funeral of General Ludlow.

Chinese Representative Ac- cepts Invitations to Visit Foreign Governments. POTSDAM, Sept. 8.—Prince Chun ar- rived here to-day. It is said that Emper- or Willlam will recelve him in the new palace to-morow. BERLIN, Sept. 3.—The Call correspon- dent learns that Baron von Richthofen, the Foreign Secretary, will assist En.- peror William at the reception of Prince Chun, the Chinese envoy. Count von Bu- low will not be present. Kien Chang, the new Chinese Minister here, will act as in- terpreter. No other Chinaman will be present. The Emperor will not receive the other members of the mission. Prince Chun will lodge as Emperor Willlam’s guest for two days at the Orangery of the palace at Potsdam. It is expected that Emperor | Prince Chun after his Majesty has re- ceived him in audience. Y BASLE, Switzerland, Sept. 3.—Prince Chun’s first invitation to visit foreign | governments was from the United States, | followed by invitations from Italy, Bel- | gium, Great Britain and Japan. They have | all been accepted. It is expected that Prince Chun will stay a fortnight in Berlin and then return to Italy, whence he will proceed to Bel- gium and England, going home by way of the United States and Japan. PEKING, Sept. 5.—United States Minis- ter Conger is taking steps to reclaim the | small American concession at Tientsin, | the title to which has practically lapsed of late years because of the Government being unorganized and a majority of the American residents being scattered among the British and German concessions. The American need for the concession is chiefly for military uses, so as to avoid the experiences of last summer, when the United States army had difficulty in get- ting uarters and docking facilities. Li Hung Chang is becoming more feeble and it is not probable that he will be able lso act as chairman of the Council of tate. INDEPENDENCE GOES OUT OF COMMISSION Sailed Off Boston as a Favor to the Friends of Her Owner. BOSTON, Sept. 3.—The yacht Independ- ence practically went out of commission this afternoon after she had raced over a course in Massachusetts Bay and beaten a fleet of fishermen ten miles on a twenty- five mile course. The race was in almost a smooth sea. She went out to_make good Mr. Lawson's promise to Boston people that he would race the Independ- ence off this port. Fishermen and excur- sionists saw the yacht as she tried her go out for the sport, and it was like a thoroughbred against a dray horse. After the Independence ailed down_ the ship channel to Hull and was towed to her berth to await the disposi- tion of her owner. It is believed she will be drydocked for dismantling. e R Fire Ends Lives of Chinese. NEW YORK, Sept. 3.—Three Chinese lost their lives in a fire in Pell street in the heart of Chinatown to-day.

LOURS Santa Fe Railroad Men Busy With an Impor- tant Deal KANSAS CITY, Sept. 3.—A rallroad deal that may mean the Atchison, Tope- ka and Santa Fe's entry to St. Louls is sald to be under consideration. Since the promoters of the St. Louls, Kansas City and Colorado Rallway, now building east from St. Louis, annotnced | that Clinton, Mo., is to be the line's des- tination, there have been rumors that the company will buy, or has already ar- ranged for the purchase of the old Blair line from Kansas City to Clinton. This road is one of the two now owned by the | Frisco_system that parallel each other from Kansas City to Clinton. They are so close together that one company can hardly use both. The St. Louis, Kansas City and Colo- | rado used to be a Santa Fe property, but | the construction of the present extension | west to Clinton is_in the hands of the company in which John Sculling and Da- vid R. Francis of St. Louis are the mov- ing spirits. Whether it is a Santa Fe property yet and will make a Santa Fe connection for St. Louis in time for the World's Fair is a matter about which there is no end of speculation.
