Mr. Bruce did not purchase the lot because -

it to help the movement along. The
railroad people appreciate bis purchase
of the property very highly and feel
much indebted to him for his evidence
of interest. The committee , after con

to * tbat.while it might be a disappointment
the , to those who had bought tickets for the

TENNIS EVENTS.
Tourney is N earing ; the Contests in

Storrs Mathowson beat II. B. Woller
W. II Buchol/ beat O. 3. Parker 0-1 ,
( M.
The contest in singles is now assuming
tangible form and some sort of guess
may be made at the winner of the cup.
Two men nro already in the third round ,
Rov. Franklin Baker nnd W. H.
Baoholz , and two more will get to it.
Sol Mayor will play the winner of the
Roynolds-Stltt match , and the winner
of this go will bo in the third , to moot
Baker. The winner of the Mathowsou-
Koonigstein match , which is being
played this afternoon , will bo in the
third to meet Buchol/ . The winners of
these two semi-final matches will then
[ > lny each other iu the finals for the oup.
Mathowson and Koouigstoiu are
closely matched , bnt Koouigsteiu's more
recent play is likely to make him win
ner , lie will thou moot Buoholz nnd
has n good chance of going into the
finals , from this bracket. Of the Key-
uolds-Stitt-Mayor mix up , it is nbout a
toss up ns to who will get into the third.
Reynolds took the first sot Thursday
and , repeating , will win. With the in-
crensed practice ho will give Mayer a
hard rub and either is likely to pass
Baker's Lawford into the finals , though
the latter improves with play. This
however , is bnt uncertain guess work
and with contests so extremely even it
is difficult to pick the winner until the
last ball drops.
Monday Is Labor day and should
nearly finish the play.

From Mnmlny'ft Dittlv :
Tlio Oresoonts from Omaha nro
altogether too light weight for Joe
Wllklns'rt Brownies. The second was
as easy nil the first nnd either was a dead
uinch. It was Galasku's day yesterday
and ho was all in all. Ho nearly pitched
a shut oat , but m ido it 8 0. Ho kept
the visitors down to four safe ones , but
was liberal with mileage , giving three
of thorn chugs in the ribs and one a base.
Henry , for the guests , got two two-
Hackers.
Not only did the Polo win his game on
the slab , but bo was responsible for n
majority of the scores chalked up to the
locals. In the second , with three men
on bases and one gone , the swarthy
twirler rapped out a clean two-bagger
and brought in every runner. Again in
the seventh , with one down and a run
ner on first , ho slapped n long , altltud-
itious fly to the deep right , which would
havoboou good for throe. But by a pho
nonioual run It was pulled down and the
runner , who had gotten to third , caught
on the double nt sack No. 1.
Wilkins was iu no condition to play.
Ill for the past week , bo was still wenk
and caught many a hard ball on the
fingers that ho ordinarily clinches. In
the seventh he was laid out by a wicked
ouo , bnt uorvily went behind the bat
again.
In the fifth inning n foul tip grazed
the bat nnd shot down at the board base
of the back stop. Bnt instead of the
u ual sharp bang against the wood
there was n sickening spat as the horse
hide struck. An instant later Albert
Mnssa , an eight-year-old lad , was
stretched out , with a great black puff
over his right eye. Boys have boon
cautioned to keep away from this spot
one iney HBO 10 waicn me carves.
Johnson made a feature stop , Davy
Wilkinson and Agan made a pretty
double nud By era , Graves and Kennedy
each took a long run , besides hitting
tbo ball.

Today's play will finish the semi
finals In singles and tomorrow at 4
o'clock the two high men will play off a
three out of five seta match for the pos
session of the trophy cup. The four men
to get Into the semi-finals are W. H.
Bucholz , Franklin Baker , J. S. Mathew-
son and another.
By defeating Bucholz tbls morning In
their semi-finals , Mathewson won his
way into the top notch of the tourney
and will bo In the game tomorrow.
Mayer , by defeating Reynolds or Stitt ,
will go Into the third nnd meet
Franklin Baker this evening for a
chance at the finals. It Is estimated
that Mayer will boat Baker and that
the finals will therefore be between
Mathowson and Mayer , old time rivals
In singles. A match of throe In five
sets depends largely upon endurance
and it is ventured that Mathewson will
bo the likely winner , and holder of the
oup.

Mayer will play Parker and Baker tomorrow -

will then meet Tracy and Koenigstein

Marie Bley.
From Monday's Dally.
The funeral of MUs Marls' Bley waa

Ills afternoon nt 2 o'clock , with the
lastor , Hov. J. P. Muller in olmrgo.
L'ho church was filled with friends of
lie deceased nnd n largo procoxnlon
allowed the remains to their laat
resting place In the new Lutheran
jomotory northwest of the city. Many
beautiful ( lowers were received by tbo
rtmlly ns n token of the esteem in
which Miss Bley was hold.
Mnrte Bloy wns born March 20 , 1879 ,
on the farm homo of her parents , near
I'roblo in Adams county , Indiana , nud
died nt the homo of her sister , Mrs.
Fred Weber , on South Seventh qtroet ,
Friday afternoon , August 29 , n'tor
au Illness of about two weeks , from
appendicitis. Miss Bley lived with her
pnronts nt Madison for two years when
the family moved to a farm near Nor
folk about six years ago. She was em
ployed ns n clerk at the Fair store for
four years and last October resigned
lior position there and accepted a similar
position with the Johnson Dry Goods
company , which she hold to the time of
her last sickness. Her father died in
189 ! ) , bnt her mother and two brothers
and a sister survive her. She waa
learned by the pup and when the burg
lars came he failed to announce their
presence.
Norfolk fans wore considerably dis
appointed yesterday because 0. A.Smith
of Tildeu was not present to umpire tbo
gauio. His failure to be hero la ac
counted for by the fact that ho was not
notified in timo. Tbo management had
arranged to have him hero and that bo
was to bo notified by telephone , bnt
there was n misunderstanding ns to the
telephone arrangement and ho did not
appear.
Miss Emma Outlet is suffering from a
broken arm as the result of a runaway
accident Saturday. She started from
her homo iu the country with n supply
of produce and had gone on her way to
town but a milo when tbo horses took
fright and ran away , overturning the
vehicle. The butter nnd egga were
plastered nbout considerably , the lady's
dress receiving n full share and she was
injured to the extent stated. She walked
back home and was brought to tbe
homo of a friend in Edgewator. The
doctors have been unable to set the arm
taken sick on the eve of a week's vaca
tion that had been granted ber by her
employers , and steadily grew worse
until it was decided that an operation
would bo necessary to save her life.
This , however , proved unavailing and
sbo passed away Faidny nfternoon.
During the years Miss Bley baa been
a resident of Norfolk she has mode
many friends. She was a young lady
of vivacious tompearinout and was a
favorite among tbe young folks as well
as wltb those who patronized her
employers , and it waa with deep sorrow
that the news of her fatal sickness and
death was received. Her mother nnd
sisters and brothers are deeply afllicted
by the untimely ending of her life.
She was the youngest daughter and
from childhood was considered the
sunshine of the home. Her disposition
nt homo or away from it was bright
and pleasant and she was the life of
any company with which she happened
to be.

Wo hereby extend our heartfelt thanks
to the neighbors and friends who so
willingly gave their assistance during
ho sickness and after the death of our
> eloved dnughter and sister. Their

THREE STRAIGHT.
Norfolk Brownies Take Last of the
Series From Omaha Crescents.
The Brownies made it three straight
against the Crescents who hail from
Omaha. It was not quite so easy as the
other two had been though the score was
identical with the day before , 8 to G.
The fact that the lead shifted now and
then kept things interesting.
One Mr. Ruff , who covered second
for the visitors , aid justice to his unme.
He stopped beefing at one point long
enough to take a drink but came back
at tbe umpire with renewed vigor.
Now and then he would walk out Into
the diamond with a club and yell ,
"We'll quit. " But a man on first called
Snffelder would look at the infant an
instant , caution it to subside and the
game would continue. One particu
larly clever trick at Ruff's expense gave
Bucklln a glad baud. The beefer was
batting and had three balls. He thought
the next would make four of a kind and
started to run. "Strike , " said the
umpire. Again he threw hie bat and
again the umpire called a strike. Then
he blazed away to kill it , but failed and
went back to the bench , disgraced.
In the eighth Graves made a phenome
nal one handed catch of a long fly to
center and an instant later Byers made
a sensational run for another. In the
fifth with the bases full , Buokllu made
a balk and forced In a ran. He started
to throw , forgot the signal , hesitated
and was lost.
