IS HEARING' THE CLOSIN6 ROUNDS The South Atlantic tennis tourna ment narrowed to the finals in sin gles Thursday afternoon when Bridg ers, the Carolina champion, defeated Lansing Lee in the semi-final round, his score being 3 —6, G —o and 6 —3. In the first set Lee outplayed his crack opponent, keeping him on the back lines and driving past him at will when he came .to the net. But in the next sets the gruelling pace told on Lee, and Bridgers won both with ease. Bridgers will play Jim Dawson for the best thre e out of five sets. The winner wiil be declared champion of the tournament, and will challenge Nat Thornton of Atlanta, who is here to defend his title as South Atlantic champion. This last match begins at 5 o’clock Thursday afternoon, and will be th e fastest ever seen in Augusta. Double Matches. Bridgers and Philips beat the Daw son brothers in a fine match Thurs day afternoon ,and thereby qualified for the finals. Ridgely and Lee finished theit match against Gary and Garrett, win ning two sets with ease, by scores of 6—l and S —l. It was somewhat surprising that Gary and Garrett fail ed to put up a stronger game, as the first set, played Wednesday afternoon, went to 10 —8. Wall and Agee won over Delmonico and Lowry by default, thereby quali fying them for the semi-finals, which will be played Friday afternoon against Ridgely and Lee. The win ners of this match will play Bridgers and Philips for the championship in doubles. Thornton and Williams will not he challenged by the winners of the tournament in doubles, as they dis qualified for competition by defaulting a match in th e first round. The new rule requires that the last year's champions in doubles play again through the full tournament. Consolation Events. By defeating Doremus in the semi finals, Philips qualified for the finals In consolations. His scores were 6 —o and G—o, Mr. Doremus being off form on account of a blistered foot. Other wise he would have played Philips a close game. Gary by defeating Agee by scores of 6—o and 6—3 qualified for the semi finals in the consolation class, and Friday afternoon h e will play John Harper, who defeated Verdcry in a well-played match by scores of G —2 and B—6.

ACTOR TALES. “You hear some good stories occa sionally about theatrical people," re marked a well-known theatre man ager the other day. “If you know any, tell ’em,' drawled a friend sitting near. "Well,” said he, "Frank Mclntyre, who is appearing in Janies Forbes comedy, ‘The Traveling Salesman,’ is a sleep-walker. Mclntyre knows it. His friends know it. But there were a whole lot of people around the cor ridors of his hotel that didn't know. “That's why the name of Mclntyre came near appearing as an entry on the books of the Harrison Street police station for appearing in public in the most shocking and untimely raiment. “Imagine a white-clad figure in a garment shaped like a bathrobe adorned atop by a telescope hat and a cane swinging jauntily from one hand, slipping along the halls and corridors of the hotel, then put your self in the position of the house de tective. “What would you do? “What the night watchman did was to arrest Mclntyre as a ‘room work er.’ He was taking him down to deliver him to the police when the manager of the hotel, who knew Mc- Intyre’s failing, rescued him, took him to a bath, douched him with ice wat and brought him out of it.—Chicago Tribune. REGULATION AND PUBLICITY. Why the Corporation Tax is Essential to Public Welfare. When President Taft proposed the corporation tax of 2 per cent on the net income of corporations he launch ed the policy of his administration on the ground swell of a vast popular movement. He put behind his special message the pressure of great masses of the people. This is passing this tax in the face of seethtng opposition In congress and clamorous protest from corporate wealth. Nobody likes to be taxed, corporate wealth least of all. No ccr poratlon wants to be forced into pub licity. No one of the great trusts wants to be required to file sworn statements of its business and profits, false figures in which would bring its officers to jail. Few congressmen want these things. But Pres.uen' Taft was elected he cause the people believed that he would make efficient and render ef fective the reforms which President Roosevelt had urged. Chief among hese reforms was the federal regula ion of corporations and publicity for heir business. The corporation tax is about to be ome a law because it will give both ederal regulation and publicity.!— i Philadelphia Press. OiKICEDENTED BARGAINS COeYRiCrtT 190 a L. Sylvester & Sons Established Nearly Half a Century. “Marrying Squire of Fort Mill ” On His Deathbed In Hospital Special to The Herald. COLUMBIA, S. C.—Squire W. O. Bailes, “the marrying squire of Fort Mill,” whose matrimonial bureau, con ducted near the North Carolina line, was used by couples from three or four states and which attained almost a national reputation, is at the point of death in a Northern hospital, where his brothers, Vic and Saf Bailes, have gone on to him to give him such as sistance as he might need as far as they can give. It is believed, how ever, that he cannot survive the pres ent attack. Mr. Bailes extensively advertised his bureau for runaway couples, in prose and in poetry, and had worked up a thriving business when Governor Heyward, acting on persistent com plaints from a number of sources, at tempted to cork up the bureau by taking his commission away from him as notary public. But this did not stop him, as under the peculiar mar riage laws of this state, the easiest in the nation to get married in and the hardest to get unmarried in, the squire could perform the ceremonies as easily as ever.
