The method of deciding a golf game in this country neretofore has been on the medal or match play systems, generally the lat- ter, except in qualifying rounds. By that it is meant that the number of holes won by each contestant determined the issue of the game in the end. Under the Nassau system the player leuding at the end of the first eighteen holes (thirty-six holes were played in the recent match) won a point, the player winning the second eight- eon holes another point, while the winner of the match secured another point. The Transmississippi Golf assoclation team had all the better of the morning play, leading by 8 points to 2 at the finish of the elghteen holes. The Transmisstssippl Golf associa. tion team did equally well in the afternoon, according to the score, aithough the press accounts of the contest would make it ap- pear otherwise, However, some reversal were noted in the afternoon play. B. F. 'Cummins in his match with A. B. Lambert fought a plucky uphill battle in the second eighteen holes and won that part of the journey by 4 up, leaving him but 1 down on the total thirty-six holes, as he was 6 down at the turn. Willlam Waller and ‘Warren Wood made the best record of any of the Western Golf assoclation players, the former coming in 5 up on J. B. Rahm of Omaha and Wood, latter being 9 up on R. H. Finkbine. It s but fair to say, however, in connec- tion with the poor showing made by R. H. Finkbine, that he is not the best golfer in the world, and has been in college for gome time and has not had a golf club in his hand sinoe the Transmississippl an- nual tourney at Des Molnes. When the Transmississippl team arrived at Chicago 1t was discovered that it was one shy of the required twelve, so Finkbine was telegraphed at Des Molnes, to find out whether his son could quit college at the Btate university for a duy and par‘i:ipate in the tourney at Chicago. The reply came back-in the afirmative and Finkbine boarded the first train he could get and landed in Chicago under circumstances hich were not the most reassuring and feh did not conduce to the playing of golf. The Western Golf association team won & greater number of Kbles thun the Trans- mississipp! Golf assoclation team, securing 81 holes’ to 2% by the Transmis- sissippl Golf assoclation team. For- gan, the captain of the Western Golf assoclation team, who lost to Stuart Stick- | ney of Bt. Louls. In the morning round, was unable to do better In the second round, although he reduced the margin, as he was one down for that part of the ‘ourney. The defeat of the veteran Tweedle, by R.

As usual, B. F. Guinand, a 19-year-old boy from Des Molnes, demon- strated his ability to play a brilliant and erratic game at the same time. In the morning he defeated his oppoment by 1 {up In 19 holes, and then In the afternoon he went all to pleces and was defeated 7 down The result of the Transmississippl tour- {ner was a great surprise to the Chicago | golfers, as they figured that the Western | Golf assoclation team would have little | trouble In defeating the Transmississippi Goif assoclation team. because the Weste: Golf assoclation team was better ac- quainted with the links and was supposed to be cofhposed of better players.

The local plavers who participated in the Transmississippi Golf assoclation and West- ern Golf assoclation contest thought it would serve the purpose of opening the jeyes of the Chicago golfers to the fact that the Transmississippl Golf association has some golf players. This was the first match between the two organizations, but it will not be the last. The Transmissis- sipp! Golf assoclation, while comparatively a youngster, has demonstrated its right to rank with the best in the western country, and the contest for mnext year betwee': the two crganizations will doubt- less exclte more than local Interest. It is expected that it will be composed on both sides of the best players obtalnable, The Western Golf association will have to come across the Missiesippl river to play the next contest, which will be held ecither at Des Moines, over the famous Waveland course, or at Omaba. This matter will not be decided until next year. In commenting upon the Western Golf association and Transmississippl Golf as- sociation contest, the Chicago newspapers pasa from the sublime to the ridiculous, as evidenced bv the following: Eleven players owing al 'rr-n-nlulu Golf assoch lelm representing the Western Golt, association Jook 1ke & bunch of duft: ers In a match over the links of the Chi- cago Golf club yesterday afte the Visltors, under the Nassau system of soor- ing, winning by 21 points to 12. i the viotors were the best procurable in their individual clubs the makeup of the local team, In face of the players who have made Chicago famous, but who were prob- ably mot avallable, was more or less of & joke and could not from regarded as repres: although there were certainly at least three men who might break with a nlh“ck into 'h‘l might be regarded as the premier Western GoIf association. players, and, rlnng« to say, the trio was among the osers.

If the contest Is ar- ranged for this city, local golfers will have a chance to witness the work of some of the best golfers in the west. Cap- tain Leavitt of the Transmississippl thinks his men can win the future events handily ae the one they captured at Chi- cago. The annual intercollegiate golf event is over, having been held this year on the links of the Garden City Golf club. The tourrament, which was ths eighth, begun on Tuesday. The team and individual cham- ploniship were the maln events. Harvard had held both of these honors, H. Chandler Egan being the individual champlon. He beat H. B. MeFarland of the University of Pennsylvania’' & year ago on the Morris- town, N. J., links, and the Harvard team won the honors by defeat'ng the Princeton team in the final round by 14 holes to 9, or, by the intercolleglate system of points, by 10 points 10 6%. In the reven years that ths college golfers have been competing, Har- vard hes held th: team honors four tim:s, winning two years ago the Ardsley cup, when the Intercolleglate association was formed./ This trophy was to become the property of the college team winning the championship three times. It was a close fight between Yaie and Harvard, as these universities have always divided the teem honors. Harvard has been champion fOur times and Yale three. Another cup is now belug played for, which was offered by the Intercolleglaie association. Chairman Gerould of the committee that will 100k after the international champlon- ship golf tourney at the Glen Echo Country club of Si.

The main difficulty has been that the three men in the back field have been un- able to block their men, and consequently have left the quarter unprotected beforé he has had an opportunity to gain ground. The backs have to start very quickly to pro- tect the quarter from the smashing half and end. Another fault has been that the quarter has run too close to the line of scrimmage and has been tripped by the proved hard on the three backs. Practically unassisted they are compelled to break their way around an end or plunge un- alded into a heavy line. Before the end of the season it is probable that many cora- plicated and deceptive formations will be used by the big elevens in which the quar- terback run will play the important part. It has been interesting to notice that as soon as the play gets within the twenty- five-yard line the old methods of play are immediately used to gain ground. It was feared for a time that the present foot ball season would lack one of the greatest features of former years—the an- nual army and navy game at Philadelphia, but arrangements have recently been com- pleted which make the game a surety. This event, which is unique among foot ball games pecause of the character of the luml represented and the fact that it the only absolutely amateur event ol s kind—admission to the game being by invitation only—was to have been aban- doned because of the action of the naval athletlc committee.

The stand taken by Annapolis was considered as rather impossible, and there was a sirong protest against Intruding a matter of this kind Into contests where government schools were concerned on the ground that it savors more of playing to win than playing for sport. The usual talk of foot ball tricks s now making the rounds. There never was anything to this talk about foot ball tricks. But two tricks have ever amounged to anything, and these two are such recog- niged tactical moves as to be firmly estab- lished as features of the game. They are the crisa-cross and the delayed p These two are 50 well known that they may be regarded as stralght foot ball, which al- ways has won and always will Eastern critics looked to yesterday's games to greatly simplify the foot ball situation in that section. The work of the last month has furnished no reliable basis for comparison between the big teams, the miserable weather conditions adding much to the uncertainty of the situation and preventing a fair estimate of what™ the teams can do on a hard, fast girdiron. As a result the foot ball enthusiasts prayed for fair flelds and a foot ball atmosphere yetserday, in order that they might get a reliable line on the work of the great rivi Harvard was scheduled to meet Brown. Yale encountered the soldlers. Columbia and Pennsylvania opposed each other, while Dartmouth and Union will oppose Princeton and Cornell respect- ively. These contests were supposed to contain the promise of intrinsic merit gnd It was thought they would prove valuable as indicating the direction of the foot ball breeze. The Columbla-Pennsylvania game, being the first of the “big six" contests, naturally attracted the most attention. The Quakers had appeared to be unusuall formidable, but the work of Columbia’ line against Amherst caused Pennsylvania to strengthen its forwards. The remain- Ing contests, though supposed te be less uncertain in result, were caloulated to thoroughly test the caliber of the “big six” teams. Yale and Princeton hav manifested sufficlent strength to set at ease the fears of their followers, but Harvard and Cornell have proved too fitful in their play to justify any certainty as to their future performances.

From Germany comes the cheering news that an automatic pin setter has been de- vised which has proven a boon to the alley owners. No longer will the bowler be com- pelled to Yell at the pin boy: “‘Clear vut that deadwood,” or “Get No. 6 on the spot, KId." The allcy owners have also wel- comed it because it is u saving of labor. In brief, the innovation consists of a box placed over the pin position, through which the pins are suspended by wires, ihe bot- toms being about one and one-quarter inches from the alley bed. Hung thus they oscillate ireely. When the angle, resulting from oscillation, reaches the point where the pin would fall, & catch, which holds the. edge of a very heavy iron bar, is released and the pin is jerked into the box. When a strike is made the pins disappear instantly. From the pin box wires run along the left of the alley to the bowler's position. As the | Jones, m 216; MeEver, pin is litted from the alley a corresponding | 200, 201, thus showing to | Bengele, 200; M. . Huntington, the scorer the pins remaining. To return | 206, 201; C. R.

By pulling the lever on the right of the foul line the ball is raised to the ball run and returned to the bowler. A fast ball will run yp an incline and re- turn of its momentum. The pins are returned to their position by throwing the lever on the left into place. The national bowling tournament will be held In Cleveland in January.

A boil or blister, pimple or burn, often develops into a frightful looking sore because of the unhealthy condition of the blood, and the place will continue to grow and spread, finally reaching the bones and causing them to decay unless the blood is purged and purified and the system thoroughly cleansed of all morbid and unhealthy accumulations, This cannot be done with washes, salves and soaps, which only relieve the inflammation and afford temporary relief from pain. Such things neither make the blood any purer nor the system any cleaner, and to depend upon them alone is suicidal and senseless. The sore or ulcer is only a symp- tom, an outlet for the poisons circulating in the blood, and as long as it remains impure the sore will never heal. It may scab over and appear to be getting well, but a fresh outpour of matter from the diseased blood starts it again, and thus it goes on, sometimes for years, slowly sapping away the life of the patient. The ouly way to get rid of these disgusting evi- dences of impure blood is to remove the cause by purifying the polluted blood, and nothing does this so surely and effectively as S.8. 8. It drives out of the circulation impurities and germs of every kind; and under i the tonic effect of this great remedy the general health rapidly recuperates and broken-down constitutions are built up and strength and vigor are restored to all parts of | the system. Wlhen S. S. S. gets into the circulation, impur- ities that have been clogging the blood and causing the old sore or ulcer, are driven out through the natural channels of the body, and the place begins to heal, the discharge gradually ceases, new flesh forms and smooth, healthy skin hides all signs of the painful, sickening sore. S.8.8. is an entirely vegetable remedy, containing both boils or abscesses. Kenton, Ohio, Aug. 22, 1908, Some eight years ago a small blister appeared on my upper lip. Itried several local applications in an effort to heal it, but without avail. Finally I consuited a dootor, But the sore did not yield to his treatment, so consulted another without any better results. The third doctor pronounced it Eozema. I should have said that the sore in the meantime had spread quite a little and the skin about the sore was discolored. 4 fter treating the sore for Eozema anc not geotting any better, the dootor pronounced it Epithelioma Oancer, and advised thatI go to Chicago and have it cut out. I did not do this, but having had 8. 8. 8, recommended to me by a couple of friends, I began its use, and the sore soon began to heal under its use. After using some six bottles of the rzed- icine the cancerous sore healed up entively, and has never returued. Several yeats have elapsed sinoe its disappoarsy oe. JOHN L.

In other cities the interest has somewhat abated, but in Omaha the same degree of intarest continues to be manifested that was evidensed when the game was first in- troduced.
