IRON CASTINGS | FURNISHED PROMPTLY BY THE VAUGHN FOUNDRY CO| Chicago, 21—Walter .C. native ,pmrunom .. today iiflsg;llaced 2as open go) am- plon of America by winning the tourn- ament at Mi ian with a medal score of 290 for the 72 holes. Ouimet fell off in his , taking 298 for his total and it fell to 'the lot of Charles Evans Jr, western amateur cham- pion, hampered by a wrenched ankle, to furnish Hagen's chief opposition. Outplaying the whole field in a spec- tacular. finish that electrified the long gallery Evans made two rounds of 71 and 70 and finished with 291 just one stroke behind Hagen. Evans’ score of 141 for today was the best double round of the tournament and ‘was accomplished despite several miss- putts. His ankle seemed to bother his putting more than his long work and irons. His tee shots went some 300 yards from the fair way nearly every time. His irons were nearly all per: fect but in the last nine holes his missed three short putts and had no luck with long ones. He finally drove the edge of the 18th green 277 yards and had left one putt for a pair with Hagen. The spectators stood on tip- toe while the Chicagoan tried the 30 foot putt. He missed by 12 inches and the championship went to Hagen. Ouimet lost the title with graceful equanimity. He had no fault to find, he said, having fallen off in his game as others had done before. He won the title last vear at Brookline tying with Harry Vardon and Edward Ray, British_professionals, at 304. In_the play-off Ouimet made 72 to Vardon's 77 and Ravy's 78. Hagen’s victory was occomplished by steady playing. Yesterday he made a record of 68 for the course by good work, aided by spectacular putting. He took 74 in the afternoon, leading Aug. old, Steady Playing Won the National Title for the 22 Year Old by DePalma in 4 Hours, 5 Minutes—No the field at the end of'the first with 142, Today h taking 75 for the first round and 78 for the second. T greens in par. Hagen was born in Rochester, learn- ed his golf there and had not made any record outside his native city un- til the present tournament. He 1is slight in build, but follows Vardon's system of shooting straight for the flag all the time. Tom McNamara of Boston, who had played the most consistent golf of the meet, scoring 72, 71 and 76 for the first three ropunds, beside# 145 in the elimination, fell off badly this after- noon, taking 88 for the last round and finishing out of the money with 302. George Sargent of Chevy Chase, champion in 1909 when he scored 290 at Englewood, tied with Fred MeLeod of Washington, D. C., for third place. M. J. Brady of Wollaston and James Donaldson of Glenview club, Chicago, tied with Ouimet for fourth prize. Louis Tellier . of Canoce Brook club, Summit, N. J., open champion of France, was fifth best with 299, while J..J. McDermott of Atlantic City, twice champion and Arthur Smith of Columbus, Ohio, closed the list of prize winners with 300 each. A new amateur expert, William Rau- tenbusch of Chicago, attracted atten- tion by scoring 301 just outside the ten prize winners. He learned his golf on a nine hole public links Hav- ing no bunkers, plays infrequently and had never seen the Midlothian course until he started in the present tourn- ament. His rounds were 76, 75, T3, 75. The next best amateur was Warren K. Wood, formerly western champion, who scored 305. ALL STARS LEAVE SUNDAY. Manager Hughes Has Collected a Fast Team—Play a Game Sunday. At last Manager Hughes says that the final preparations have been made for the All Stars’ tour of New Eng- 1and, and the team pulls out from the New York, New Haven and Hartford depot Sunday night, and in all proba- bility will not return until Labor day. Owing to the postponing of the trip a couple teams were obliged to cancel their games with the Stars, and Maa- ager Hughes has rearranged the sched- ule. The team plays - Monday and Tuesday at York Beach, Wednesday at Fort McKinley and Thursday at Old Orchard Beach. These are all summer resorts along the shore, and the bovs anticipate a great time. From there they go inland to the mountain resorts and Friday line up against Livermore Falls, champions of Maine. Saturday they play at Rumford and Monday at Sanford. The team then has the op- portunity of going down to St. Johns- bury, Vi, and from there to New Hampshire, but Manager Hughes may decide to remain in Maine. Last week the trip was postponed on account of the absence of pitchers, and it appears to -have been a lucky thing, as the 'past week few games were played in Maine on account of rain: Now the manager has signed a full array of twirlers with good reputations. Babe Adams, the pride of Willimantic and a young twirler whose services have been much in demand this sei- son throughput eastern Connecticut, will be one of the reliables. Babe is a left hander with great speed and won- derful shoots. Then there is Charl Croker, whose feat of shutting out Princeton cut a notch for himself in the hall of college fame. Denison, the for- mer €. L. L pitcher, who twirled good ball for the Brown freshmen during the past season, and is regarded as a good prospect for next season’s var- sity nine, will also accompany the team. The fourth twirler is younsg Benjamin, who has yet to achieve a rep., but Manager Hughes believes he has all the earmarks of a great pitcher. ‘The pitchers are all good outfielders, and in addition Manager Hughes has Doc Thompson and himself, both play- ers of no small ability. The team will play a game Sunday on the Cranberry with the Taftvile Bear Cats and this time the manager says there has been no misunde: standing about it, but there will sureiy be a game. The battery for the Stars will be Benjamin and Standish. The Bear Cats have secured Blanchard of the Andems of Grosvenordale to do the iwirling for them. The game is sure to be a corker, as the Bear Cats have established quite a reputation this sea- son. They defeated the Sachems 8 to 0 and play the Hospital today. Mana- ger Hughes guarantees that the game will start at 3 o'clock. Tommy Rilay will hold the indicator and a record crowd is sure to be on hand. Hoerr Retained Southwestern Title. Dallas, Texas, Aug 21.—Roland Hoerr, of St. Louis, today retained the southwestern district tennis cham- pionship title in singles by defeating Evan Rees of Dallas, 7-5, 6-4, 6-3. Athletics Bought Eastern Association Pitcher. New Haven, Conn., Aug. 21.—An- nouncement was made that Willlam Jensen, pitcher on the New Haven team of the Eastern association, had been sold to the Philadelphia Ameri- cans, He is to report at the end of the season. K Sachems Will Have Fast Team. ‘When the New London Independents run up against the Sachems Sunday they will have to go some to be able to compete with the locals. The Si- chems have signed Jimmy Marray, former Trinity captain, and has been playing with Beliows Falls of the Tw: State league. Brazil of New London will do the firing, and other strong ad- ditions have been made. DROVE 205 MILES IN FOUR HOURS At Rate of 73.6 Miles an Hour, Ralph De Palma Won Cobe Automobile Cup. oy Eigin, 1il, Aug. 21.—Ralph De Palma, hard pressed by Gil Anderson, won the Cobe automobile race today, finishing the 305 miles in 4.05.00.1, an avera: of 73.6 miles an hour. Anderson fla- ished 44 seconds later, followed by Mulford in 4.08.16 and Oldfield in 4.15.23. ]59 Palma was the winner of the event in 1913, when his average speed was 66.8 miles an hour. His fastast lap today was 6.05, an average of 82.5 miles an hour. Only nine of the 22 drivers who started the race were on the course at the finish. Spencer Wishart took the pace eariy and led throughout, running until the 18th lap without a stop. He continusd in first place without accident until the 21st lap, when he blew a tire. De Palma might have taken the lead then but for a similar accident. With a seemingly safe lead in the 26th lap, Wishart's fuel tank started to leak, and two laps - later .finally forced him from the race, ‘Anderson had crept up on the lead- ers and shortly after Wishart's acci- dent passed De Palma. From then on it was either driver's race, althouga Anderson was not quite able to g:t the lead from' his victorious opponent, his hard drive forced De Palma into a race that lowered records for maay laps. De Palma by his victory today be- came a favorite for the Elgin national | b race tomorrow, another 36 lap contest. Anderson and Mulford, who finished second and third today, are entersd for.the Elgin event. Each has won one leg of ‘the trophy. Wishart was repairing his car i>- night and expected to be ready to enter. O'Donnell, Fountain, Hearne,Walkor, Calieutte and Burke' are tomorrow's entries who did not appear in today's event. Oldfield, Tetzlaff, Pullen, Chan- dler. Roberts and Heineman of today’s starters also are in the Elgin National. The race tomorrow is over the same distance and starts at the same time as today, 11 a. m. Reds Found Matty Weak in First Inning. Cincinnati, Aug, 21. — Cincinnati batted Mathewson hard in the first inning and scored three runms, which were enough to win from New York today. 3 to 2. With one out Herzog singled and scored on Twombley's triple. Von Kolnitz then flied to Bes- cher, and Groh’s single brought Twom- bley home. Groh stole second and scored on Daniel's single.

This illustration shows a general view of the Antwerp water front and a map of the double line of forts sur- rounding that city. After the Belgilans evacuated Brusels, leaving it for the Germans to occupy without a - battle, it was believed the next big fight would be near Antwerp. If the Germans undertake to capture that city they will find thmeslves opposed by very strong fortifications. Antwerp is the temporary capital of Belgium. : BATT ESHIP IS THE IRON DUKE TORPEDO AND MINE PROOF?

The Sistine chapel, where the funeral of the is held, is transformed on the tenth day after his death for the election of a new pope. Upon the altar a vutvaog:‘, representing the descent of the Holy Ghost, is placed. A throne in front of the altar is reserved for the new pontiff. In the center of the chapel is a large table bearing two vases and one large covered chalice for the reception of ballots. Before each cardinal’s throne is a small table, with ink, paper and sealing wax. To the left of the entrance is.a stove with a pipe leading out of a windoya In the stove the unsuccessful ballots are burned with damp straw. The escaping black smoke signifies to public and the watchers outside the chapel that no choice has been made. When the decisive ballot is taken thel papers are burned with dry straw and the light smoke indicates that a pope has been elected. Arrangements for the conclaye are made by Cardinal Merry del Val, papal secretary of state and Cardinal Della Voipe, the chamber- lain, who is head of the church until a new pope is chosen.
