Mm . ine interstate Tennla tournament Just conciuaea was tba most extensive and sue eessful tennis event aver held In Omaha and seems to promise a great future here for the game. Everything about the affair from start to finish arouaed nothing but the high est commendation of all participants. The Field club courts, six In number, were amnl for the purpose, and were cracked up by sucn men as rarker, Sheldon. Sanderson and Petera ka tha best clay court they had ever teen. All equipment was perfect and tha prises were generally dubbed magnificent With that beautiful challenge cup on Its nanas, trophy that ha now cost $170 cash It Is a cinch that the club will hold a tourn ament each year with tt aa tha principal pnif, ana Its ram will draw each season a wider apread list of entries. This morn ing's trslns are taking the visitors out of Omaha, but they all say they are coming back. Ths who go home without even a consolation prise, and their name Is legion, say that they have had the time of their Uvea, and are coming back aure. Dr. Sbel don, the merry Kansas City dentist, who waa booked for a winner in both single and doubles, but wh didn't get a thing, is hap plor than any of them. Said he: "Why, I've toad mora frtenda than anyone. I'm coming back aure." And that seems to bs the spirit all around. Meanwhile, the Field club shares It. The directors feel that the exptns Involved in tha tournament has been mora than repaid by tha success achieved. Omaha baa given one great tennis tournament, and given it right. Nothing was lacking that ahould em bellish a cosmopolitan affair of tha kind. Everything was elaborate, and the Field club men feel that tha Satisfaction of know lng this la alona full return for all trouble and expense. The fate of the Chicago men, Petera and Aahcraft, bringa prominently to mind tha great amerence Detween ttte game aa played on grass courts and clay. There is no denying that grass courts are regu lation, being according to the national rule. All the big matches now progress ing In the east, at Newport and other places, are on grass. And not everyone understands how perfect these graaa courts can be made. To most people the name grass court" brings up vision of on certain bounces, ruts and hollows. Not ao. The grass court for a championship match la Just like a carpet. One can hardly believe It grass, so even and level Is it. You can bet on a true bounce from them Just aa safely as from a clay court The only difference la In the degree and . " .. . . m . o o , Ht,, iuoiv ilea a great discrepancy. Tha, grass bounce Is a alow one, an unwilling one and a ahorter, lower one than from clay. The ball seems to settle In the grass and anuggle down for a second before rising. Thia beat Farnaworth at Chicago, when ha came wltbing on point of taking the match from Ashcraft. Farnaworth said it Waa Ilka learning a new game to be com pelled to go ao low all tha time. The aam thing undoubtedly contributed to the downfall of Peters and Ashcraft here. They simply round a livelier ball to play. But of course it is much harder to go from clay to grass than vie versa, aa a man can alwaya play a high bound, while a low one la 'deceptive and harder to get. There ia undoubtedly a great difference In the gamea and In the style of play adapted to each. Strokea which clay court playera no will not da at all on grass courta, while atrokea which are puxsling and effective on graaa lose their potency and become easy balls on clay. The day of grass courta In thia part of tha west cannot b aald to be near at hand, ao it ia probable that clay playera will continue to win Interstate prlxea around here. Another Interesting feature of the tourner was that It brought ao Dfalnly Into comn- tltlon the two old points for dispute, "style" agalnat "winning." As long aa there are atlcklera for "form" thla will be agitated. One olasa of players Insist oa a "style" or a lorm" play and acquire that before thev learn to win gamea. Othera play anything that wins, and there you are. When It'a all aald, la not tha man who wins the gamea the on who ia playing In real "style" after all? If ha can win aa his gam has be not the proper "form," in stead of his opponent with an elaborate Latwford and other standard atrokea which ha refuses to change for any play? Harry Vardon, the golf champion, says that the beat "form" 1 what brtnga you th best results, and so he playa: Hla game ia like no one' else, and causes tha conventional one to have epaama. Their aeathetlo senses are Jarred. Ia not thla true also of tennis. Should not each player develop hla own form," adapting it to his physlaue. to hla temperament? If "etyle," ao-called, doea not win, why play la 'wtyler There were plenty of both classes In the tournament her. Aa th extreme repre sentative of "atyle" take Parker. He had style," akd Iota of It, but ha also could win aomewhat. That waa because his game was wonderfully develoned. Hovn Farnaworth .without a cartlcl of "atyl" beat him out. Parker aays aFrnaworth playa In "awful form." but what did that get Parker T "Awful form" beat him. Aahcraft is another with considerable form." and where did he landT His "form" strokes led him out of court and Into the net most of the time." Ms gee haa great "atyle," and Bee what It doea to him. How mairy of hla beautiful atrokea doea he land safelyt About one In three. He dropped before Saymond In th second round. Bendereoa haa some "style," but It doea not atlck ent much. Tet he la a winner. He can make monkey of any of the "atyle" extremists around her. He la not afraid to drop hi stylish stroke for a winning on when he cannot aa it It pays to ha a plugger and a winner. There were many amusing occurrences in connection with the tournament. As usual, there were some fellows whose shirts ware alwaya pulling eut and flying t th breese; there were other who were constantly get ting hit la th head with a wild ball from som other court; others mho would turn awkaard somersaults la attempt to get a paaa; but aa real merrymakers tha doubles team of Jerome Mage and Dr. Sheldon had all the reat lasbed to the mast. Every game thla pair played waa one continual dog Bght oa their aide the net. Neither could do ear thing t plea the other; every stroke waa wrong and each took delight la letting hit partaer know of hi defection. Tha rallying waa half In Jest, halt In earn est. Each pretended to all th credit for the gamea. and delighted In ahowtng up the fault a of the other. Thia led t aome en tertaining oHaloguee wh'ca were by no tueaas in sotto voce, and from th ftrst day a big gauery always erwwtec around a court here theae mea war oa duty, not to aee their play, but t hear their "rag chewing." Saturday mornlag especially, when Sander so gad Holland bat thla pair, they were THT. OMAHA eapeclally Irascible. Each was coaching the other in Do gentle voice. "Now run! Get on your own aldet Why didnt yoa get that? Don't bat everythln into the bet! Now try to win this point just for once!" These wer some of th things Ms gee kept handing to Sheldon In angry tones. The latter waa mor remon stratlve and querulous In manner. Every time Magee would try a reckless amash at th net and drive the ball Into th methel Sheldon' fsce would assume a most rtdlcu lously pained expression, and he would whimper; "Don't take those chancea, man." And when Magee made five double faults In one gam 8helden waa la clover. "Why, that ain't what you want to do," he would aay. ''Tou want to knock the ball ever tbe net I can get aome of theae barefoot kids around here to serve doubles." Then Magee would turn red and go up ia the air. Seising the balls for another serve, he would start for the back Una saying briskly: "Now, we'll brsce up and take thla game." Then he would serve another double fault, and Sheldon would remark, aententloualy: "Not that way. my boy." On sharp exchange was cleverly at Shel don's expense: "Why don't you play tennis f" he in quired of Magee In a proteatlng tone. Why, I've only knocked two balls out thla game," replied Magee. "Well, I haven't knocked a single ball out," waa Bheldon'a rejoinder, given la superior manner. "But I've. knocked a few in, too," an swered Magee quickly, and the gallery cheered lustily. Fred Sanderson, Who won the alnrlpg. la the nicest fellow in the world to play against or ba beaten by. He alwaya has a good word for a good pla that beats him and sympathy for bad luck. Thla same trait placed him in a peculiar pre dicament Thursday. Sanderson was play ing Sheldon In the semi-finals of the sin gles. He waa beating Sheldon plenty, and to cheer him up waa saying, "Hard luck, old man," after every break the "doc" made. In the second set Sheldon made a rally and ran a game to forty-love. Aa he mad the last point by placing the ball clear out of Sanderson's reach, the latter ab sent mlndcdly said: "Hard luck, old man." Sheldon threw down his racket and looked up in amazement. "What's the matter with you.V he said. "Do you think I'm out here trying not to get beat?" Peters and Ashcraft, the Chicago play ers, were feeling very badly at the result of the tournament. They are both mighty nice, quiet fellows, with not a bit of blus ter or blow about them, but they did rather expect to clean tip the boards out here. Said Peter Saturday: "I Just feel so ashamed I cannot bear to walk out in front of these people. I want to hide In the locker room. It Isn't that I care about getting beat. I am an easy loser, ana so la Asncraft I do not mind those sin gles at all. What hurts me Is that we haven' shown any tennis at all. I did hope that we would do something the last day Just to show the peopitf here tat we can play tennis. So her we come out this morning to play Farnsworth and Raymond doubles. It seemed lik our golden oppor tunity to show what we had In us In a sort of good-bye match. Instead of that w played even worse than w have all week, and I tell you It hurt me when I know that the people out here expected ao much of ua." "The finest set of prize I ever saw gath ered at a tourney," aald Sanderson. And it waa about true. Th usue offering at a western tennis tourney cawnot b compared 16 what the Field club showed. Said one tuan who played at Chicago In th western championship a few week ago: That challenge cup ia simply grand Why, It beats the western championship cup clear off th boards. The first prlie enp, th on to be taken permanently, la almost aa good aa th western champion ship trophy." i The two Oalesburg men took their share. Sanderaon got his nam on th challenge cup In singles, took th first prli loving cup for keeps, and get a ahavlng act of aeven ratora, "one fbr every day," as eo ond in doublet. Holland took a cut glass cigar Jar aa Brat prlxe In consolation alnglea and also received a aet of aeven rasors aa hla plunder from th doubles. Farnsworth and Raymond wer not far behind. The former took the traveling caaea aa second prlxe In single, and a Cross kit bag a first in doubles. Ray mond got another bag for hla doublea. Both get their namea on th challenge cupa In doublea. Meanwhile Young took aecond In con- eolation alnglea, an umbrella, and th four prise In consolation doublea are etill to b won.

BRYAN ATTENDS A LAWN FETE Editor mt tha Coasaneaer gpeaka the Alteadaat at St. Cecilia' Social. to William Jennings Bryan was th chief at traction at a lawn social given by St. Ce celia' pariah, at the home of Bishop Scan nell, Thirty-sixth and Cuming street, last night. Shortly after 9 o'clock Mr. Bryan, with others, mounted the music atand. Almost Immediately the electric light suspended above went out with a hiss leaving the plat form In darkness. When light had been re atored, Mr. C. J. Smyth Introduced Gov ernor Jennings, a coustn of Mr. Bryan, who baa been visiting In Lincoln. The governor made aome well received remarks, praising the state and western country generally. Tnen Mr. Bryan waa Introduced. Hla re- marka wer greeted with applause and laughter. The following Is the gist of some of hi points: "Ladles and Gentlemen: I am here partly because Mr. Smyth wished me to come, who nas done ao much for me; and I am happy ' if there la any service I ean .do for the j church to which he belong. If he says I i can do a favor to the Catholic church, I ; am glad, for I will have to do a great deal to get even, as during the campaign I had : toe earnest support of very many ot tne Catholic church, as also of the othar churches. I am glad to help a church which doea so much for mankind. I am alBO glad to have my cousin here. I do not cons dor myself a curiosity, but thought that a mem ber of n.y family who succeeded in politics would be a curiosity. "But I will not make a political speech. I have plenty of opportunity to make thoaa and little for other words. . I have made political speeches for several yeara and have com to th conclusion that people do not like them. Peop's don't Jump on those who preach sermons, so I thought I would dis cuss Christianity. During th last four icontha I have been developing a moral philosophy. I find that the fundamental truths of human life are the great political truths. I have taken the word 'civilisation' for my subject, and am aurprlsed to find how little haa been apoken or written on th subject, and how little I knew ot the word. I looked In the dictionary and en cyclopedia, but waa forced to make my own definition. 'Civilisation Is the har monious development ot tbe human race, physically, mentally and morally.' What are we doing to raise up the civilization of which we are a part? We all have a part In thla civilisation, our vice lower Its level and our virtue raise It tip. The moral element ia paramount in civilisation. In all nation which have fallen, th moral decay ba preceded the political. I have heard people aay that nation grow and then de cay aa human belnga do. I deny any an alogy between man and natlona which make thia inevitable. Nations are made by generatlona and I ae n reaaon why future generation ahonld not be equal to tha preaent; nor why the United States ahould not. In the future, be greater thai at preaent. If the nation fall it will b because of moral decay." Marrlac Ltceases. Licenses to wed were yesterday Issued to the following: Name and Residence. Age. Charles B. Anderson.
