The only town which re sponded to the North Platte club's invitation to send competing teams was 131 wood and six men came from there. The McCook club failed to receive their invitations until too late to scud a representative. Four games of double were played The teams playing in the doubles were Geo. McMichael and J. C. Orr, R. A. Cary and F. L. Mooney and Win. Rbright for North Platte; L. A. Green and A. Cory, O. R. Champc and A. V. White and C. A, Yeoman and W. R. Jeffrey from Rlwood. In the first game Mc Michael and Orr beat Green and Cory, in the second game Chauipe and White beat Cary and Mooney in the third game Cunningham and Rbright beat Jeffrey and Yeoman, and in the fourth game McMichael and Orr beat Chatnpe and White who had beaten Carey and Mooney. The two North P-late teams, Mc Michael and Orr and Rbright and Cunningham, were therefore the only unbeaten teams and they will have to play at some future date for the doubles medal. Right games of singles were played. The only three contest ants who were undefeated were Mc Michael, White and Champe. As it was growing late in the after noon when the last game of singles was played the Rlwood players de clined t phy McMichael for the championship nnd the uingles medal will not be awarded until next year.

Sawyer 1. f., Geo. Likert c. f., and Roy Shaffer r. f. Owing to Luke Hart's becoming disabled at Gothenburg a t-liglit change was made in the home nine at the game yesterday. The North Platte nine won in Gothenburg by a score of seven to six but lo9t yes terday by a score of twelve to seven. Both games were well played and much enjoyed by the on lookers. Our home nine is very enthusiastic over its treatment while in Gothenburg. The boys are especially grateful to Dr. Lock hart who drcBscd Hart's wounded linger and refused to accept liny compensation for his services. Sev eral slight casualties occurred dur ing the game yesterday and as a result o( one of them Charlie Bur roughs has one eye in deep mourn ing. Several more games are in pros pect and it the North Platte nine wishes to make a good showing it ought to do some good hard work on the practice field. There are some excellent players in the nine but they need more practice if they desire to play a good game.
