The Early History of Golf.

Undoubtedly golf was an established
game for the people at about the middle
of the Fifteenth century, and by the last
of the Sixteenth had become so popular
that Sunday playing disturbed the Edin-
burgh city council, just as now, some
400 years later, it is az lting the con-
stabulary of certain prov incial districts
of the United States.
Nevertheless there are few generally
recognized epochs of golf, which afford
definite links of evidence in the games
history. We know that James VI, be-
sides placing heavy tariff on the feath-
er balls brought from Holland (gutta-
percha balls were not used until 1S4S),
and fifteen years later a royal ballmaker,
and that during James IL reign q fore
eddie became an institution.
Although golf was played in Scotland
at a much earlier period. the honor of
the first club rests with England where
the Royal Blackheath was organized in
160S-possibly by James VI, possibly
only as an Outgrowth of that convivial
'EnucklehCne Club" The Edinburgh
Burgess Goling society, with more So
cial than sporting predictions, dates
from 1875, and st. Andrews, popularity
regarded as the alma mater of golf, was

dian Fight.
The Indians have ceased to trouble in
Colorado. The warlike Arapahoes are
extinct; the Utes, the Uncompahgres and
the NaYahoes remain on their reserva-
tons in Utah. Some twelve or fifteen
years ago, at the White River agency,
just north of the Roam mountains, an
agent named Meeker, who cherished a
wild idea that his Indians adored him,
fell out with them, and was discovered at
his back door with no scalp on the top
of his head. His daughter, Miss Jo-
sephine Meeker, was carried off by a
buck whom she designated in her MARIA
tive as ''the gallant Persune." A small
party of troops, dispatched to the agency,
fell into an ambuscade. The men built
a small corral of powders, behind which
they crouched to avoid the shots of the
Indians, who occupied the surrounding
heights. Their supply of rations was
short, and the Indians used their Win
chesters effectively; the beleaguered SOL
diers seemed to have no alternative but
death or starvation.

er, Laramie and Halleck, as we'll as

As to one little incident, it may be fair
to anticipate him. In the force under Col.

They sprarg like tigers into the corral
with Indian bullets singing round their
cars, and threw their rations to their
white comrades, then dashed up the hill

The New Food Drink.

Half the coffee" you drink isn't cof-

is better. There is nothing in it to hurt,
while in coffee there is. The better the
coffee-the less adulteration-the more
injurious. Grain-O is made from pure
grains, has the rich color Of good coffee,
sets nicely on the most delicate stom
ach, is fine for children, is nourishing,
and keeps nobody awake nights. Drink
as much as you please at a late dinner
or supper and you don't get up in the
morning saying, ooh, my head, my

Different Meaning.

American and English tourists who
visited Ischl, III Austria, recently, were
a sign-board over the door of one of the
hostelries of the place: ITO the gentle
mans Englanders and Americaners, here
you become asses" Upon inquiry it was
learned that the purport of the singular
sign was. that the proprietor of the place
had donkeys to let which were used for
excursions into the neighboring noun
tains. A much-traveled cobbler, who
professed to be able to master the Eng
lish language, was responsible for the
unique wording of the sign. He had
translated the German sentence: "An de
Herren Englander and Amerikaner, hier
bekommt ihr Esel," the latter four words
meaning there you can hire aSses.'

Jokes about long sermons are always
in high favor with the clergy. Here is
one told by the Dean of Rochester at the
English church congress-
A country clergyman went away for
his holiday, and a benevolent neighbor,
who had a curate, took his Sunday
duties. After he had preached his first
sermon he remarked to the clerk in the
vestry, 81 am sorry l gave you such a
short discourse, but the reason is that a
dog got into my study and tore out sew
eral leaves" The clerk gazed wistfully
