Showing Ones Varying View of Golf as He
Plays Well OF Ill.
On the links of tho Island Golf club
at Garden City, N. Y, two men We're
having "a hot game, with success about
even. They were good friends and COM
plimented each other Oh their good
shots and looked the other way after a
foozle. just as the younger IL stepped
upon the tee to drive off for the sixth
hole q very swagger cart came spinning
up the road that crosses the links near
that tee. A stunning young woman WIS
driving. She pulled up sharply near the
tee and called out to the man about to
drive:
George, dear, won't you come home
now and not delay luncheon"
The man Strengthened up with an air
of disgust at the interruption and re.
piled:
"Not now. I'm playing the game of
my life"
81 wish you'd come" she said.
Ono, not now" he answered. "I'm
playing too we'll. I wouldn't quit this
for 40 luncheons. I'm breaking my rec
ord by ten storkes."
"Well, I'll drive up and down here
and wait for you," she said.
AS she started off George, dear, turned
to continue the game Of his life. He
sliced his drive and lost the ball in the
blackberry bushes in the ravine. He
dropped a new ball and lost one stroke.
Then he topped the ball ON the niblick
shot out Of the whir and didn't gain
three feet. Finally he got out with
seven and was bunkered in the road
that crosses the field. There he lost two
more strokes and the rest of his temper.
Finally he got out Of the bunker and
with q beautiful lie used his brassey for
a three-quarters iron and overshot the
hole by 90 yards into the tall grass.
There the bail was lost.
Ten minutes later the swagger cart
was spinning down the road at the top
speed Of the horse, the stunning young
woman sitting very erect and statu-
esque and driving with superb skill. In
the back Of the cart, with his heels dan
Cling and brandishing two golf clubs,
sat George, dear.

The girl cashier Of . Madison street
restaurant was for three weeks believed
by n Of the customers to be q lineal
descendant Of Morgan lie Fay and to
have some Of the family traits Of Heller,
the second sight magician, for she
seemed to know by intuition or instinct
or something else what was the price Of
the meal he had consumed and also just
the amount Of money in his hand when
he approached to pay. He first noticed
that when he presented q 30 cent check
she Immediately laid upon the rubber
mat q dime and a nickel which she had
been holding for change.
"How, this man inquired of him.
self, Ibid she know that Is cents would
be the correct change? There was no
earthly way for her to tell what money
I was going to offer her either. How
did she come to have the exact change
ready without a seconds delay or with
out having to go to the cash register for
it?" He could not answer to his own
satisfaction.
The g day he bought a As cent
meal, and she promptly laid a nickle
before him, the 5 cent piece being the
only coin she held in her hand. 1t was
the correct amount, as he gave her q
half dollar. He experimental several
times afterward and at last appealed to
her for information.
"Why," she said, "didn't you ever
notice the tint Of your check?" When I
see you coming 20 feet away, 1 know
by the slate colored check that you have
eaten 90 cents worth. If you have a
red ticket, that warns mo that you want
to pay for a two bit meal. A blue one
means SO cents. This yellow one is. of
course, for 40 cents. The amount is
printed upon the check, but the color
is my warming"
eyes," said the other, somewhat re-
lieved, "that seems easy. But still my
money is not of different colors. How
do you know what change to have
ready? That's mind reading, sure."
"Not at all. When you come with a
quarter ticket, you will usually give mo
the exact change or half q dollar. I
have a quarter ready for you in my left
hand in case you give me a half. Sup
pose your ticket is a 35 cent one; you'll
either give me the correct amount or a
half dollar-or perhaps a dollar. With
Is cents in one hand and 80 cents in
the other I'm ready for any demonstra-

Hot Springs is in South Dakota.
This fact is sufficient to condemn its
climate in the minds of those who can
only associate the name Dakota with
extreme heat in summer and extreme
cold in winter. Now the fact is that
but very few people who have not per-
sonally experienced the climate of Da-
kota, a do it justice, but he who con-
fonnds the climate of the Black Hills
with that of Dakota in general, lacks
that specific information which only
should be the basis of Judgment upon
the climate of any place. Likewise he
who confounds the climate of Hot
Springs with that of the Black Hills
region in general, depending upon the
statistics Of the weather service accu-
INFLATED at Deadwood, where the SER
vice was located for many years, and
which are used as a basis of reports
contained in the Denison Charts and
other works on climatology, will obtain
but a crude idea of the real conditions
of climate which prevail at Hot Springs.
/ was skeptical myself regarding the
marked difference which was claimed
by the inhabitants of the place, and
felt that l could only give such testi-
mony for what it was worth, but fortu-
nately I obtained access to q private
diary in which all the important fea-
lures of the weather have been;regular-
" and systematically kept for a period
OF eight years. These records have but
two theometric observations a day,
about sunrise and sunset, SO that q
a near as generally understood can
not be obtained, but the data given
does establish beyond q doubt that the
conditions at Hot Springs are excep-
tional, as compared to the Black Hills
country in general. This also estab.
fishes the fact that as q winter climate
Hot Springs corresponds more closely
with that Of the same altitude and lat,
itude hundreds Of miles furthar south,
minus the disagreeable winds which
there prevail, and which are here CON-
spiCuons from their absence.

Baltimore June 6.-Simon Lake. inven-
tor of the Lake submarine wrecking boat
Argonaut. related last night some inter-
esting facts about his two hundred miles
trip under and on the surface of the Ches-
apeake bay. Annapolis. Patuxent river.
Crisfield and Hampton Roads were the
points touched before reaching Norfolk.
Mr.. Lake said:
During the trip we made various ex-
periments to demonstrate the practical
bility of our system of submarine naviga-
ton. The whole trip was made with our
own power. The Argonaut was handled
very easily on or under the surface. or
when running on the bottom. and We
proved that the boat was perfectly sea-
worthy. At one place we struck bank
Of sand on the bottom which appeared like
a hill of shelled corn. The roller wheel
would not work satisfactorily over 1t as
II buried but We found this was overcome
easily by working the propeller, which
drove the Argonaut over it with ease.
''On hard bottom. where the water was
comparatively clear, the door was opened
and 1t was beautiful sight to see the
bottom through the opening and the crabs
and small fish scattering as We approach
ed them. We picked up few oysters as
we were travelling along, but as We had
but a crab net to catch them with. We got
but few because our speed was too great.
I'VE discovered that We could see far
ther under the surface at night with our
electric lights than in daytime. The great
est distance seen in the bay was about
twenty feet. We hope to get into the
ocean next week. where We will get clear
waters, and see much farther. Our divers
were sent out from the boat and demon
strated the entire practicability of our
system. As soon as We can get our COM
pass properly adjusted We will be ready
for work"

A WEDDING DELAYED.
Rev. DR.. ScEa6er Declined to Per-
form the Ceremony.

Baltimore. June 1.-TWO loving hearts
were filled with gloom yesterday for a
time because of the refusal of Rabbi
s. Schaffer to make them one. They were
finally. however. welded. because Rabbi
A. Gu.tmacher, of the Baltimore Hebrew
Congregation. was more complaiSant.
Miss Lena Rothschild and Mr.. Morris
Greenwald were to have been married.
All the arrangements had been complet-
ed for the event to take place in the
Greene Street synagogue, Of which DR..
Schaffer is rabbi.
The guests were assembled, and all
seemed going with the utmost smoothness
when Rabbi Schaffer discovered that the
groom was a divorced man-divorced and
free, that Is. according to the law of
Maryland. but not divorced by the rites
Of the Jewish church. For this reason
Rabbi Schaffer believed that he was not
justified in performing the ceremony In
the synagogue. Protests and appeals
were vain. The rabbi was inexorable. and
the would-be bride and groom, as well as
friends and spectators, had to depart.
The groom did not despair. He
sought out DR.. Guttmacher. who looked
at the license and found it made out In
due form. He decided that the license
was enough to warrant the marriage TAX
ing place. and he proceeded forthwith to
the brides home, and Mr.. Greenwald and
Miss Rothschild were made man and
wife amid the blessings Of their friends.
