While Mr. Goward ia to be conddled with In this, and while It must be regretted that after such brilliant playing he should fall when final victory seemed #0 near at hand, ctil! he is certainly lentitied to praise for the consistently good form he has shown and. the improvement evinced in his play thie year. Mr. Pelly is no méan antagonist and yesterday afternoon his volleying was something which to be appreciated needed but to be’ seen.

Another disappointment was the defeat of Messrs. Pooley and Johnston by Messrs. Hurd and Russell, a defeat which even the splendid work of the Jocal players. conid not avert.

Miss Béattle of Vancouver covered tér- self with glory by defeating Miss Arrow- smith and thus qualifying far the final contest with Miss Goward to-day
