To golf or not to golf: that is the question.
Whether it is nobler in the mind to suffer
The sings and arrows OF the scornful crit
Or to take arms against links of troubles
And by trying. learn not. To drive. to putt:
the rub,
For in the efforts made, what strokes may
come
When we have cut the ball in half and
Must give us pause. There's the reproach
That makes us monkeys all the livelOng day.
For who would bear the whips and scorns
The professors tongue, the best girls con-
tumely,
The pangs of poor approach, the ar
that's famed,
The iisolence of caddies and the scores
That patient merit only make more lengthy,
When he himself might his quletuS make

Riggs Of Philadelphia at the Holland
house recently, but young married cou-
pies always try to deceive the general
public and strive to create an impression
that they have been mated for long
time This has led to many JeStS and
stories but about funny a thing IN
this connection as | know of actually
happened to friend of mine who got
married last year. The wedding oc-
Cured in this city, and the brougham in
which they drove away from the house
had been literally decorated with rib
bons and streamers by their friends. AS
soon as they turned the corner the bride
groom ordered the cOachman to take
them to the nearest elevated station, and
there dismissed the obnoxious carriage.
t., Of fInI, ralnr, of how
determined to sit on opposite sides of the
car, to pretend not to know each other,
and to be apparently deeply absorbed in
reading papers. All of this they did, but
everyone that entered that particular car
would first glance at one and then at
the other, smile audibly and give them
their undivided and amused attention.
They saw that they were discovered,
but in what manner it had come about
they could not imagine. 1t was only
when they finally got into their state
room in the train at the Forty second
street station that the reason why their
deception failed to deceive revealed it
self. for they then discovered that the
brim Of the groom's hat and the top of
the brides headgear were white with rice
that had been thrown at them when
they left the house
One of the leaders of the Greenacre
James. At the recent summer session
there were lecturers numberleSs from all
over the world. Meeting a friend, the
doctor asked him how he was enjoying
himself hseni Finely up to yestterd d when
well?' Not at all; he simply told us
what he didn't know is he still talk
ing?' queried the doctor as he walked
away.
Some weeks ago, in this column, took
the liberty of suggesting that it would
be q good idea to corral all the Barry
more family and put them into one play,
says Hepburn Johns in the Dramatic
News. The success Of Ethel Barrymore
in His EXcellency the Governor a sue
cess which is as real az anything | have
seen Of late, encourages me to bring this
interesting topic before the eyes OF en-
pertaining managers again. With Maui
rice barrymore, his son Lionel and his
daughter Ethel in the cast, believe that
a rafting good society drama of the type
of Captain Swift would be pretty near
~ sure to attain a great vogue. Merely
as haphaZard suggestion, wouldn't it be
a good idea if Augustus Thomas would
write play for them? Mr.. Thomas I'M
derstandS the Barrymore family better
than any dramatist in the country I'M
doubtedly, and | think he could fit them
with good parts. Miss Barrymore aside
~ social lion. Although I have not the
pleasure of her acquaintance, | am told
that she fairly charms everybody who
meets her as much by her modesty as
by her grace and wit
