PELL DEFEATED
BY MURRAY IN
TENNISIOURHEY
California Expert's Dashing
Play Holds Gallery Spell
bound; Tilden Also Wins
Match With Ease.
Forest Hills, L. I.. Aug. 28. In a
series of bitterly fought matches in
which endurance played as promi
nent a part as skill, the majority of
the ' country's leading tennis players
forced their way to the fore in the
third day of the annual national
singles tennis championship at the
West Side tennis club. The two
outstanding favorites, R. Lindley
Murray, the Californian expert, play
ing from Niagara Falls, and W. T.
i Tilden, Jr., of Philadelphia, did not
have to play fourth and fifth sets to
win.
Murray disposed of Theodore R.
Pell of New York, noted for his back
hand play in straight sets at 6-2; 6-0;
6-0. Murray showed the result of his
play and practice during the. past
week and appears to be rapidly
rounding into the form which has
made him so formidable in the past
few years.
rfell, despite his determined efforts,
was almost helpless before the dash
ing play which the Californian rac
quet start have made famous in re
cent years. - Murray's terrific service
and smashing forced Pell on the de
fense the greater part of the time
and with the exception of an occa
sional brilliant cross-court backhand
stroke Murray Was always holding
, the advantage and ( the attention of
the gallery of several thousand spec
, tators.
Tilden, in eliminating Conrad B.
Doyle of Washington at 6-3; 6-1; 7-5,
can be said in a general way to have
.been in the same category with Mur
ray. Doyle put up a gallant fight
against the Philadelphian, but the
superiority of the latter was too great
to be overcome.
: National League,

Cincinnati divided a double header to
day, Chicago winning the first game,
7 to 5, while Cincinnati shut out the
locals, 9 to 0, in the second game.

RECORD MADE BY
BERTHA DILLON
IN FREE FOR ALL
In Beating Two Fast Trotters
Philadelphia Filly Sets a
New Mark for 4-Year-Old
Fillies.
Readville. Mass., Aug. 28. Miss
Bertha Dil on was driven by iernll
to a world's trotting record for four-
year-old fillies of 2:02 1-2 in the free-
for-al trot at the Orand Circuit meet
ing at the Readville track today. The
Philadelphia filly owned by A. a. cox
beat the fast trotters St. Frisco and
Mabel Trask in each of their heats,
making the fast time in the second
mile. The record was formerly
2:04 1-4 held by Bertha McGuire and
made at Toledo on July 24, last.
The largest crowd seen a the track
since the American trotting derby
was held here in 1902 was on hand
to honor the veteran driver "Pop"
Geers on Geers day. The veteral
started in all four races, but failed to
land a winner. He had the satisfac
tion of driving St. Frisco when that
horse pushed Miss Bertha Dillon to
the new record. Geers 'was in posi
tion to win the third heat of the 2:11
pace, but Billy Jackson broke while
leading the bunch down the stretch
and finished fourth. This race re
quired an additional mile for heat
winners and A Game of Chance beat
May Bird, a Bay state circuit pacer,
in a close finish.
Nella Dillon, a sister of Miss
Bertha Dillon, won the American
horse breeder futurity, the largest
purse event on the card.
Chilcoot, a Canadian trotter and a
favorite, won the 2:10 trot in straight
heats, giving June Red, driven by
Geers, her second beating this year,
Chilcoot established a record for the
event by going the second heat in
2:05 1-2.
Free-for-all elaas trotting paras $1,000.

Chambers' novel of society life,
"The Danger Mark," wil start at the

a girl who has inherited a weakness
for intoxicating liquors and nearly
brings herself into serious difficulties
when temptation comes to her. It is
a showing of the life of New York
society in the years just before the
war and carries with it a lesson of the
temptation to be met in the life of
doing nothing.
Bert Lytell, star of "No Man's

Land" is a story of love and adventure
with an undercurrent of intrigue which
will appeal to the adventurous in
everyone.
According to the publishers,
Harold Bell Wright's story.' The Eyes
of the World," which in picture form
comes to the Brandeis theater next
week, has been read by more than
4,000,000 people. The story was
filmed with the assistance of Mr.
Wright and, according to his own
statement, the picture form carries
the theme in a much stronger manner
than it was possible to do in the
written word. All the filming was
done in southern California where the
action of the story took place.
Questions that every American has
asked at one time or another are an
swered in "Pershing's Crusaders,"
which will run at the Rialto the re
mainder of this week. The picture
which is the first of the committee on
public information's war films has
been receiving much attention all
over the country and is now being
brought to Omaha to be presented
for the first time here at popular
prices.
Rita Jolivet in "Lest We Forget,"
finishes a five day run at the Muse to
night. The story is a thrilling war
picture of the early days of the war
and the sufferings of those who were
caught in the advancing waves of the
Germans leads down to the pever to
be forgotten sinking of the Lusitania,
and in an immense scene there is
given a picturization of the actual
sinking of the great boat. Tomorrow
and Friday will come Virginia Pear
