They tried to break into the am- munition store and pack all the guns in sight and march out to the front, alone, unofMicered and untidy, all be- cause the War Office had decided that the men should not leave to fight the Germans just yet, but instead should proceed to Warley barracks for addi- tional training. Here is the story: The battalion of the Guards responsible for the lit- tle incidents referred to above ts recently called to the colors from olvil life. No persuasion was required to make | them rejoin their regiment. The ma- fority of them, in fact, walked into | additional training. headquarters uninvited. They had} all made up their minds that they} were going out to France to fight the Germans right away—and that was where they made a slight mis- take. THEY WANTED TO FIGHT—NOT TO DRILL. ‘The War Office had decided that before sending these men, who, with the other regiments of Guards, form the backbone of the British infantry, to the firing line, it would be better to get them back into condition by route marches, rifle practice, drilling and mounting guar. The Irishmen stood this all right for a week or two, but the first of trouble appeared when a number of them detached as King’s guard— that is, the soldiers on guard at Buckingham Palace—refused to go to their post.

QUIMET IS ONE UP ON TRAVERS AFTER |: BGTEEN HOLES Round for the Golf Championship. * MANCHESTER, Vt., Sept. 5.—Fran- cls Oulmet of the Woodland, Mass., Golf Club, the 1918 open champion, was 1 up over the amateur champion, Jerome D. Travers of Upper Mont- clair, N. J., at the end of the first round in the finals of the national amateur golf championship on the Ek- wanok links to-day. Oulmet gave his followers a bad hour and a half during the morning round by missing five easy puts in the first twelve holes. He more than redeemed himself in the last six holes when he played the thirteenth one under par and the reat in par figures. Travers was two up at the turn, but was four times off the course on his drives, send his second into the rough awice and was twice trapped, the last time being on the eighteenth hole, where his failure gave Oulmet the lead for the round. Oulmet began his poor putting on the first, when he missed a three-foot affair, He followed it with another at the fourth, a third at the fifth and one at the ninth. In the meantime Travers, although somewhat wild on ws lo! shots, was very steady on the greens. Quireet won the tenth when Trav- ers sent his second into the rough, but lost the eleventh by being trapped. Ale had a fine chance to take the twelfth but missed his fifth short putt. At the thirteenth, which is 208 yards, Oulmet ran down a 15-foot putt for a 2 and the hole, which left hun 1 down. The next three holes were played by both in par figures, but at the seventeenth Travers pulled Rie drive into a bunker and was just out in his second, He made a brave effort to run down a long putt for a 4, but missed, and Outmet, still play- ing perfect golf, equared the match. On the last hole Travers was again trapped, took two more to get onto the tair green and reached the green THE IRISH WANTED A co D—ALAS, THERE WAS NONE! huts, and efforts were made to down the doors, but the litte gna | Wee about over.
