THERE was strange mixture of domes-
tie intelicity and Tammany Hall politics in
the Flack divorce ease in New York. Mr..
Flack is grand sachem of the Tammany
society, and has been member of the
wigwam for nearly forty years. 1t seems
that while Mrs. Flack, with becoming
modesty and seli-respect, was quietly CON
templating "a mere separation from the un-
faithful Tammany chief, his particular
political friends formed "combine" to
set their leader at liberty and give him an
absolute divorce. The judge, referee, clerk
and both counsel were special friends of
the sheriff and Mrs. F'lack's lawyer openly
admits that he never saw his client. If the
good woman who has been imposed on so
shamefully has any friends there ought to
be a criminal prosecution for conspiracy,
both for the fair name and reputation of
the wife and for the just punishment of the
reprobate Tammany sachem and city
official.

SPOKANE FALLS, one of the most famous
of the quickly-buit cities of Washington
territory, is being destroyed by fire. These
cities of the far Northwest are built of wood
and must often succumb to fires until more
substantial methods Of building are
adopted. The fate of Spokane will call at
tention to its marvellous growth due TO the
building of the Northern Pacific and to Its
splendid water power. An army officer
who passed the night at Spokane, when it
was a post relay station In $780, was offered
the greater part of the present town site In
exchange for his horse. II was not then
believed that the railway would travel that
way, but the whole history of the West
illustrates the power of the railroad build
ers to make cities and fortunes with ease
and speed.

An English Opinion About the Bethune-

An English Opinion About the Bethune-
Kettleman Record.
After working the dismal vein, it is only meet
that should expand myself on a genuine rous-
ing article, such as the new and original and
undoubtedly genuine lO0-yards record, stamped,
made in America. Mr.. Bethune we know as a
regular flyer, able to beat all nations, coIors
and creeds. Bethune the great has been
smotbered at his favorite distance by Kittle-
man. If he were II mean if e were | in this
name-the connection of ideas as regards great
unusual feats and presentation plate or other
trophies would be appropriate. This Kittle or
Kettle man is evidently modest as talented in
space devouring, for he retired with Bethune
to nice quiet corner to perform his record
breaking.
With much diffidence mention that Kansas
was the State and with regard to the name of
the particular town or city in Kansas will not
deny It's possibilities for comic copy:manufac-
ture, which it are-I mean to say which it is
Wichita. Speaking for myself, | would not
venture to doubt any record dated from Wich-
ita, Kan, and as l have long longed to see
someone get two and a half inside evens in a
set match, only trust that the Kittle cattle of
Wichita may be moved here-Wichita with the
path-measurer starter and timekeeper, and
Bethune to make pace, all complete-so that
may assist at another 90 sec performance.
The big sprint put me on little bit better
terms with myself. and on the road TO cure of
the dumps.-London Referee.

A PROMISING LOT.
A Large Batch OF Great Yearlings For
Sale,

A gentleman who has recently returned from
kentucky. has called at our office. Speaking
about horse lore in Kentucky generally, and
the yearlings more particularly, which will be
offered for sale in New York this summer, he
said:
There are a number of good ones at all the
principal breeding establishments, but you
ought to see Swigert's, of the Elmendorf. 1
tell you they are wonderful lot You know,
of course that there are several of the finest
bred ones in the world to be found there, and L
noticed that both you and others of the leading
ing papers have written about them. Still,
say. they really did astonish me. They are
truly grand lot. The brother to Firenzi is
as like Haggin's mare as anything you can well
imagine. The same make and shape, the same
varmint look about HIM: in fact as like as two
age taken into consideration. Dry Monopole's
brother, too, is Dry Monopole over again, ex-
cept perhaps, that he looks like making big
ger animal than his brother. Louisette's broth
er, the brother to Los Angeles and halfsbrother
to fremont are all colts which will create
sensation. In fact, never saw so many really
first-class youngsters collected together. 1t is
not only that the Glenelgs are such a grand set
but the get OF Rotherhiil and Bersan, his other
two stations, are first class You never saw
better, cleaner shoulders than the young Roth
erhills have on them and the young Bersans,
too, are finished from head to foot. They are
particularly good-lookers. and resemble their
sire about the make of their hind legs more
nearly than any can call TO mind."-Sports-
man.

Ewing Defends Ward.

Buck Ewing was among the spectators at the
local billiard handicap yesterday, and there
came in contact with the writer. He said: ~
see that old Boston story about Welch,
O'Rourke, Keefe and myself being on bad
terms with Johnnie Ward is going the rounds
again. There is nothing in it., and wish the
Enquirer would give it an emphatic denial.
Johnnie Ward and myself have always been
on the best of terms. and know that Welch
and ORourke feel kindly to him. The only
possible truth in the story relates to Tim
Keefe. There Is a coldness between the great
pitcher and the short-stop, and 1t is due to fam
ily complications"
'"Is it true that you condemn Mutrie for ar
ranging a series with Brooklyn was asked.
mo. indeed" replied Buck. II think it is
lust the thing The series will not be a test of
the relative merits of the teams, however, be-
cause the games will be played so early that
neither team will be in the best condition.
only hope he will arrange with the Athletics,
Baltimores and all the strong teams he can get
as it will give us good practice. There is moth
ing in playing lot of weak teams. as they are
easily defeated. and the team will be as bad off
for practice as if it had not played at ALL"
Buck will go East about the 10th of next
Enquirer.

A SIGNIFICANT WITHDRAWAL.
The Athletic Union Washes Its Hands of
the National.


NEW YORK, February ca-The Inter -Collegi-
ate Athletic Association, N annual session to-
day, withdrew from the National Amateur As
sociation of American athletes. The resolu-
ton of withdrawal is as follows:
Resolved, That the intercollegiate Athletic
Association of the United States hereby withdraws
from the National Amateur Association of Ameri-
can Athletes, and for the future remain an inde-
pendent association, governed entirely by its own
constitution and laws of athletics. This is passed
for the sole purpose of placing the intercollegiate
Athletic Association in an Independent position
and not to be construed as either an approval or
dsapproval of the principles of any other associa
tions, and that any colleges holding games under
any other rules are TO be be expelled from the In
ter-Collegiate Athletic Association, with the ex-
lar associations which will be exempted from
this rule until after their next convention.
Delegates say there was no opposition to the
resolutions. The action is looked upon as a
victory for the Amateur Athletic Union, which
is waging war against the N. A. A. A. A.
The Berkeley-Oval cup was offered the Asso-
c1ation to replace the Mott Haven cup, the
shields on which have been exhausted. The
Berkeley Athletic Association will be notified
that its gift will be accepted If the name be
changed to the Intercollegiate cup. The fol-
lowing officers were elected: President, ], NJ

must wait until he has succeeded in spoonlng
it out before he begins to play. Obedience to
this rule obviates any dispute as to the order
in which mans points are to be made. For,
has his within an inch or two of
until 1 have gotten my bali clear
of it and thrown it toward the next hole. Fol-
lowing this general plan the players go entirely
about the circle, and as you may see, in a large
field. it may involve run of several miles, If
should throw my ball beyond the hole at
which must next enter, 1 am obliged to knock
it back until it shall enter the desired place and
be carefully spooned out again. While 1 am
doing this. my opponent may, by a lucky play,
get his ball within the proper limit and thus
gain some distance upon me.
"Now, from this you would infer that the
aim of this sport would be to complete the cir
Gle as quickly as possible. This does not al
ways follow. There are no codlfed rules ac-
cording to which the game is played. AS a
general custom the players make the entire cir
cult of the circle, and the one who gets his ball
in the hole, at which they began first, wins the
that the game shall be won by him who makes
the largest number of holes within given
number of minutes, say 20 or go
PLAYING PARTNERS.
In either case the principle of the game re-
mains the same, and if partners are playing it
simply means that if A strikes ball, and is
his partner, B must run forward and make the
next play, and A must run after him and make
the next, and so on, while D and q, who are on
the other side. are doing the same thing In
the partnership game there is actually mere
exercise to the players than in the single game
and the servants or "caddies' are equally busy
"Do spectators usually cOngregate to view the
game of golf?"
Eyes, in small numbers; but as rule they
stand far off, for the nature of the Implements
employed is such that ball may be driven in a
very contrary direction to that which the
player wishes, and therefore may fall among
the spectators and cause temporary discomfort
Moreover, it would require considerable ac-
tivity upon the part of the spectators to watch
the play in golf for they would have to run
around and see how every hole was pained
from one end of the game to the other have
seen as many as 30 spectators at one game, but
seldom more: and good game is frequently
played without any at all.
'The principal qualifications for the game
are steady nerve and eye and good Judgment of
force, with an added ability to avoid knolls and
sand pits, which in the technical terms of the
Scotch game are called hazards
''sIt is not game which would induce men of
elegant leisure to compete in, but those who
have strong wind and good muscle may find in
it splendid exercise for their abilities and
plenty of chance to emulate each other in skill
and physical endurance"
Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1889-02-24

player may find himself This will appear
later on as describe the process of play.
'AJ the beginning of play each player places
his ball at the edge of hole, which has been
designated as starting point. When the word
has been given to start he bats his ball as ac-
curately as possible toward the next hole, which
NAV be. as have said, either 100 or 500 yards
distant. As soon as it is started in the air he
runs forward in the direction which the ball
has taken, and his servant, who is called
"caddy," runs after him with all the other
nine tools in his arms. If the player is expert
lucky, he bats his ball so that it falls within
few feet or inches even of the next hole in
the circle. His purpose is to put the ball in
that next hole, spoon it out and drive it for
ward to the next further one before
his opponent can accomplish the same
end. The province of the 'caddy'' in the game
is to follow his master as close as possible, gen.
orally at dead run, and be ready to hand him
calls for as the play may demand. For instance,
the ball may fall in such way that 1t is lodged
an inch or two above the ground, having fallen
in thick grass. The player, rushing up to 1t,
would naturally call upon his "caddy" for a
batting spoon, and, having received it from the
hands of his servant, he would bat the ball with
the spoon in the direction of the next hole. We
must understand that an inviolable rule ofthe
game is that no player shall touch the ball from
one limit of the circle to the other with his
hands. All play must be done with the tools
PLENTY OF EXERCISE.
"You can see that in this the caddy really
gets about as much exercise out of the sport as
his master; and he must be so familiar with the
tools of the game that he can hand out the
right implement at any moment when it is
called for. If player has succeeded in throw
ing or pushing his ball into hole, his opponent

The Woods Run Belle Captures the Pc
destrian Prize.
The six-day female pedestrian contest at the
London Theater finished a little before IL
o'clock last night. 1t was a great success in
every respect, that is as far as honest endeav-
ors to win were concerned and the attendance
and order in the building Clara Bell, the
Woods Run representative, won. and she won
on her merits. She is undoubtedly an excellent
female pedestrian and as such is probably ca
pable of holding her own among the best of
talent. She has speed, style and courage.
The great struggle has been between Miss
Zelletta and Mrs. Robson for second place.
These twocontestants have had a hard fight of
it and both were thoroughly exhausted last
night. They struggled on, however, and the
score shows how they finished. Mrs Robson's
feet were in a sad condition. One greatand
satisfactory feature of the contest has been the
remarkable good order maintained all.through.
Although policemen were in attendance, they
hadn't a thing to do but enjoy themselves in
looking at the contest. Not even loud word
was spoken during the three days and, doubt
less, this contributed largely to the good and
respectable attendance. Following was the
final score.

PLAYED ON THE SCOTTISH LINKS.
A Large Number of Implements Necessary
to its Pursuit.
THE GAME TO BIZ INTRODUCED HERE

Taking an example from the energetic
work that has been done by the advocates of
hurling, several Scotch sportsmen in this
vicinity have undertaken to introduce this
national game of Golf to America. 1t is
not, as hurting is, characteristic game of
one country or locality only, but it is new
ertheless game that is played only by
people accustomed to Scottish sports and
Scottish scenes. ALI who have read the
marvellous stories of Robert Louis Steven
son have become familiar with the word
"links." This term signifies a plot of
ground that corresponds in general char
acterV to the English downs. To put
