GAME OF HIS LIFE.
Showing Ones Varying View of Golf
as He Plays Well
or Ill.

From the New York Sun
On the inks of the Island Golf Club at
Garden City the other day two men were
having Il hot game. with success about
even. They were good friends and compli-
mented each other on their good shots. and
looked the other way after a foozie: Just
as the younger one stepped upon the tee
to drive off for the sixth hole a very swag-
ger cart came spinning up the road that
crosses the links near that tee: A stun
ming young woman was driving. She pulled
up sharply near the tee and called out TO
the man about 10 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 replied:
Not now; In playing the game of my
Il wish you'd come" she said.
NO. not now he answered. I'm play
ing too we'll: I wouldn't quit for forty
luncheons. I'm breaking my record by
ten strokes" :
wait for you she said.
AS she started off George dear turned
to continue the game of his life. He sliced
berry 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 whirr and didn't gain three feet FL
cred 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 a beautiful lie. used
overshot the hole by fifty yards into the
tall grass. There the ball was lost.
Ten minutes the swagSer cart was spin
ming down the road at the top speed Of
the horse. the stunning young woman sit
ting erect and ~statuesque and driving with
superb skill: In the back of the cart. with
his heels dangling and brandishing two
golf clubs. sat George dear.
The game of his life was over.

INDEPENDENCE.
Issuance Of 100000 Additional school
Bonds Authorized by Special
Election.

TIL proposition to issue school bonds car
ried yesterday by a vote of Gle to 80
at the special election. The election
passed quietly. At the closing of the polls
the advocates of more schools for I%ndepend-
ence school children were jubilant and
everybody seemed rejoiced at the favorable
close of the contest. The advocates of
more schools worked hard. Members of
the school board took turns at the polls.
The election means that bonds to the
amount Of $4,000 will be issued for a new
school building to he erected during the
coming summer, The building is to be
centrally located. and the high school will
be removed to it when completed. as will
also some Of the other higher grades. This
building will relieve the congested condition
of the lower departments. and give the
children n better opportunity of securing
an education: A year ago this proposition
was defeated. 1t was believed that the
schools could get along without additional
room. but when the fall term opened many
school children were unable to attend school
more than a half day. because of a lack of
room. The question of another building
was again asitated and yesterdays election
called The new building viii be ready for
occupancy at the opening of the fail term

AUTUMN TINTS.
The ReasOns Why Some Leaves Turn
Red While Others Turn
Yellow.

From the Washington Star.
Probably not one person in a thousand
knows Just why leaves change their color
in the fall remarked an eminent botanist
the other day to a reporter for the Star.
The green matter in the tissues of a leaf
is composed of two colOrs. red and blue.
When the sap ceases to flow in the au-
tarded and oxidation OF the tissue takes
place. Under certain conditions the green
of the leaf changes to red; under different
aspects. it takes on a yellow or brown hue.
ference in combinations of the original con-
stituentS of the green tissues. and to the
varying condition of climate. exposure and
soil. A dry, hot climate produces more
brilliant foliage than one that is damp and
cool. This is the reason that American au-
tumns are so much more gorgeous than
those of England and Scotland.
There are several things about leaves,
however. that even science cannot explain.
For instance, why one of two trees grow
ing side by side. of the same age. and hav-
ing the same exposure. should TAKE on a
brilliant red in the fall and the other
should turn yellow. or why one branch of
a tree should be highly colored and the
are questions that are as impossible to an
Swer as why one member of a family
should be perfectly healthy and another
sickly. Naples and oaks have the brightest
colorS.
People should be careful not to touch
the gorgeous red and yellow autumn
leaves or shrubs and climbing plants
which are not known to be harmless. Our

THE NEWS AT %LEAVENWoRTH.
Murder of Jesse Cambridge
Check Swindlcr Around. .

Sam Sully. who is in the county Jail to
Nv ait trial for the murder of Jesse Cam
bridge. on the night of January s. does not
propose to allow the case against him to
go by default. but will make a desperate
effort to secure acquittai.. Whatever money
charges against him will be tried. as he
does not wish to give Governor Leedy an
opportunity to sign his death warrant.
Notwithstanding the state has good evil
dence as to the shooting. when. called to
plead Sully will deny having committed the
murder. This is clear from the papers filed
in the district court, yesterday by Sully's
attorneys. The papers indicated constitute
the answer to the charge of murder and as
a first answer deny that Sully killed Cam
bridge. For a second answer the defendant
cites the first and says that if he did
shoot and kill Cambridge he did so in self
defense. or to save himself from great
bodily harm. The entire tenor of the an
swer leads one to believe that the murdered
man had attacked Sully and was about to
kill him. The friends of Cambridge have
secured eminent legal talent to assist the
county attorney with the prosecution. The
evidence obtained by the coroner and the
remanding justice is believed by the friends
of the dead man to be sufficiently strong
to bring about a conviction of murder in
the first degree.
