is in some respects the most subtle Of all. golf
In view ofthe novelty Of the sport and Of the i'm

All the more noticeable was Mr.. HARRIMAN's
victory in Chicago last week. Considering tho
wide spread OF the game in this country and
the remarkable results in homebred play
among men whose earliest youth never knew

rest In the Transvaal was and still is q him
drance to the development Of the whole OF
South Africa, and no one pressed upon the
President the necessity OF max ing some con-
cessions to the Uitlanders more earnestly
than the leading members Of the Bond. By
1895 not only had the antagonsm between
the English and Dutch in Cape Colony died
away, but there was q substantial agree
ment between the two races as to the de-
STABILITY of reforms In the Transvaal.
DR.. JAMEsoNs raid closed the door on the
period of good feeling with bang. The
old bitterness sprang out again In n mo-
mcnt exasperated on the Dutch side by the
fact that the real mover in the attack on
tho Transvaal was the man whom they
had followed and trusted and maintained
In Office for years. Mr.. RHoDEss resigna-
ton relieved the situation somewhat. The
jubilee celebrations, the advent OF q new
and popular Governor, the refusal Of
the British Government to force the pace
and several fresh outbreaks OF Krdgerism
all had quioting effect and but for the
folly Of SirGonDoN SPRIGa in fighting last
years elections on racial lines the status quo
might have been restored by now.
As it is the Dutch are an uncertain guam
tity in the event Of a war between England
and the Transvaal The Bond above every
thing else wants peace in South Africa and
q reader market in the neighboring repub-
lies for agricultural produce; and for these
reasons it would gladly have President
KRtGER restore public confidence by yield
Ing to the Uitlander demands. But 1t Is
firmly opposed to any outside interference
with the Transvaal's internal affairs. The
question is whether it would join with the
Beers in resisting such interference by
force OF arms. AS the Dutch settlers in
Cape Colony outnumber the British by
three to two, the question Ia n very serious
one, and Mr.. SCHRETNER's declaration more
than hints that 1t might be answered in the
affirmative.

The open air dancing season was
opened last evening when the Knights
and Ladies' of Maccabees gave very
enjoyable dancing party at Jacobs
Island. While it was the first party of
the season which had enjoyed the
pleasures of the Island the party proved
a great success and drew a very large
crowd. The crowd was taken from the
city to the island in buses and every
bus leaving the city was crowded.
Dancing was the feature of the even
ing, the music being furnished by the
Stemm Brothers orchestra Dancing
continued until early morning, or, bet
ter speaking, until the rain began to
descend. This brought the only un-
pleasant feature of the evening as
there was not sufficient room in the
buses to accommodate the large crowd
in attendance and many of the people
were forced to walk all the way home
in the drilling rain. The resort will
undoubtedly be a very popular place
during the summer and Mr.. Jacobs has
done everything in his power to make
it first class place for dance and
social parties. A new floor has been
put in the pavilion and the grounds
have been improved by the addition of
rustic benches in all parts of the island.
