MID WEST TENNIS TOURNEY tirt Made Under Blazing San en Fast Courts. CHAMPION PETERS IS NOT HERE Hares Wlna Ills First Match, aa Did Drnmmond Jones, and the Ont look for Good Play Is Bright. Under a scorching hot sun with the courts In the very best condition the ninth annual Middle West tennis tournament started at the Field club Monday morning. With seventy-two entries and a large pro portion of them from out of town the championship of' this year will mean more to the tennis world than It ever has before. With the best players from Missouri, North and South Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, Illi nois, Oklahoma and Nebraska here to show their prowess the winner will have done something worth while to get away with the honors. The chairman of tha tennis committee, Herbert Kohn, who Is some tennis player himself, has completed arrangements for a tourney that will not bs only the largest but tha most successful and tha most en joyable of the long list that haa been held at the Field club. Backed by an excellent committee, he has aroused Interest over territory wide enough to make the name Middle West no misnomer. Hayes Here, Peters Not. C. S. Peters, last year's winner, is not entered and may not be able to get here In time to defend his title. He Is playing In California, where the tennis game has been remarkably successful this year. This disappointment la somewhat overbalanced by the fact that Walter T. Hayes, also of Chicago and several times champion him self, will play all the way through the tournament, since he was beaten by Peters last year. His first match was with L R. Robinson of Waterloo and he won, 6-0, 8-1. The state players are here In considerable numbe.'s this year and upeclal prizes will be offered. Ralph Weaverllng of Beatrice, who won the state tournament at Beatrice and who was runner up for the Metz trophy last year. Is In better form than ever and expects to be heard from. J. H. Cravens, who Is refereelng this year, Is a .veteran with a record. He started playing In 1SS3 and after eight years of tournament experience decided that ha was getting too old for fast com pany and withdrew. Last year, fifteen years since he had played a real match, he re-entered the fray and came to Omaha from his home In Kansas City. This year he was persuaded to act as final arbiter In the big disputes and hasn't had time to do any playing himself. Experts Are Numerous. Taking It all together, mere are too many experts from the surrounding ter ritory for the comfort of the Omaha play ers. One of the best matches of the after noon .was between Roland Hoerr of St. Louis and Harry Koch. Harry had won his first match from Keysor, also of Omaha, and took ths first set away from the southern Invader rather easily In S-8. After that Hoerr pulled himself together and took two sets, 6-4. 6-2. His calibre will soon be put to other severe tests, a he is not far from Oilman and Cub Potter In the list. The Potter brothers had better luck. Cub beat Welntnsr of Kansas City In the sec ond round. Welhener took ths first set S-n and then went down 6-1, 6-4. Ced beat Hosmer McKoon of Laharpe, 111., In two sets, 6-4, 6-3. Sam Caldwell was worsted by another Kansas City man, Dr. F. E. Shelden. This Is ths first time In a good many tournaments that Sam Caldwell has been In the consolations. In spite of heat, thirty-seven matches were played off the first day, which makes a remarkable showing. The first round will be finished up completely this morn ing and the second will be begun and pos sibly finished In ths afternoon. If Peters does not come back to defend his title there may be no tennis at all on Friday afternoon, as the finals will bs held off until Saturday. Rcsnlts for the Day. PRELIMINARY ROUND.

Hurray, Hayes won his first match! The pairings for the doubles will be made today and play will probably be begun to morrow, J. J. Armstrong of, Pt. Paul and H. E. Funk of Doniphan started the second match of the morning about two minutes after Jonea and Drlscoll. Herb Kohn rame nearly calling off the first match after It was started because Wrlghl 4V Dltson balls were being used Instead of the Ayers ball, which was chosen by the committee. The only Omaha men who won Monday morning w ere Ray Ferrell, who got a matcn from Vebber of Mitchell, S. D., by default, and Ced Potter, who beat Leo O'Keefe, also of Omaha, 6-1. 8-2. "Doc" Blatherwlck, the ambidextrous of Rock Vallev. Ia.. who nlaved such a heart breaking match with Cub Potter last year, la not entered. He has not been playing as much tennis this year as usual and did not care to coma out, Drummond Jones Is telling of a match he played with Charley Peters In St. Louis. Peters had him 6-0 on one set, and then because of a superstition hs carries against beating anybody a love set Peters let up. Jones took the next game and then took six straight, winning 7-6. Billy Warfield of Chicago, who was hers last year, liked the place and brought his younger brother, Robert Warfield, with him this time. Warfield is in the Chicago class, which means, Gardner, Peters and Hayes. He started out by beating Bob Dinning of Omaha, 6-2, 6 0. Charles T. Spelce, champion of Oklahoma In doubles, cornea from Kingfisher, an en thusiastic tennis burg. Instead of from Al bion as he was first announced. He won ths doublea championship of Oklohoma with Karl Mick. He plays hero with John T. Bailey, champion In singles. One of ths real juvenile wonders is J. 3. Armstrong of St. Paul. He Is city champion of St. Paul at the age of 18 and plays with a steadiness and lack of con sciousness that might be envied by a veteran. His first match was with H. E. Funk of Doniphan, whom he beat, 6-0, 6-2. Sum Caldwell and Billy Wood are spend ing all of their time In getting ready for that big polo match that comes Thursday afternoon. "Vlsitora from everywhere are being pressed Into service, whether they claim any skill or experience with wild horses or not. It promises to be a day of exciting adventure and terrific casu alties. The gallery was large Monday, although It was only the opening day. Some doubt as to the reason for the large gallery arose, however, when one woman remarked after she had been watching the tennis for an hour: "Aren't they going to have a tournament of some kind here In a week or two? The boys are practicing for it, 1 see," Harry Smith of Lexington Is one of the best of the state players. He holds the championship among the university players at Lincoln, tha same honor that Art Scr lo ner held several years ago. He started out by beating H. B. Kennlcott of Lu verne, Minn., 6-1, 7-6, and then took on Armstrong, who beat him, 6-3, 8-2. This puts him out of the championship fight, but he still has a chance at the Nebraska prizes. Caretaker Lund Is having- his usual troubles with the courts. Lund Is so proud of having the finest clay courts in the world that It hurts him every time a player steps on a line or scratches up a little dust. He would be happy If he could fix up the courts and then sit and look at them. His solicitude results In the superb condition of ths surface that all the players from out of town notice when they first get out on It. The players don't suffer from the heat half as much as the referees. These poor unthanked officials have to sit humped up against the sun and try to appear In terested when they would much rather be up In the gallery, and they get nothing for their pains. In fact, one came near suffering the fate of the umpire Mon day, when along In the heat of the after noon he gave a close decision. The play ers struggling with each other and the Insufferable sun were irritable and It took several committeemen to straighten mat ters out.

Aug. 16 The chief feat ure of the day before the opening of the twentv-nlnth annual championship tour nament of the United States Lawn Tennis association of the Casino courts tomorrow was the appearance of former Champion William J. Clothier, in a practice match, and the announcement that he would enter the tournament. Clothier recently sprained his ankle In a practice game at South ampton and It was feared that this in- Jury would keep him out of the national cnampionsnip matches. from nis work thus far this season, he has been one of the favorites for the honor of challenging William A. Lamed of New Jersey, the present champion. Clothier played with T. R. Pell of New York this afternoon and his work showed no indication that his recent sprain had handicapped him any.

If You Drink friends, destroyed your usefulness, broken up your home, lost you the love and respect of your family, destroyed your own self-respect and caused you to become a common, worthless, drunken outcast, but sit down right now and think the matter over. Call to mind the men who ten or twenty years ago were known as moderate drinkers. How many of therr can be considered such today? How many of them are worthless outcast j.J How many are in State Prisons? How many have gone to their last rett ing place as a result of drink? Realize where drink Is leading you and tee if you cannot make up your mind that It is best to quit it at once. If you find that difficult. If you feel nervous and depressed, If everything in this world Is wrong, If you enjoy little or no restful sleep, have a poor and capricious appetite, and find life without the accustomed stimulant la a burden and devoid of comfort and pleasure; that you at times need and must have a. drink to overcome these terrible symptoms, you may under stand that you are diseased. Vou have used alcoholic liquor until alcohol has become a necessity to you. Your nerve cells will no longer pp'iprra their functions properly and painlessly except when under Its lnfli: Jce; they therefore demand alcohol and you experience a feeling of necessity for it. The cause of these symptoms Is readily overcome and the craving or appetite for liquor destroyed by the Keeley Treatment. This Is conclu slvely proved by thirty years' experience and the cure of thousands. Write now for full particulars.
