New York Wins Woman's Intercity
Team Contest at ,Bala.
QUAKER LADIES CIEVERLY OUTPLAYED
Sensational Riding by Jockey
Mitchell at Aqueduct Yesterday.
SPO RTS IN GEN AL

The women of New York and Philadelphia
met in an intercity team golf match yester-
day upon the links of the Philadelphia
Country Club, at Bala, Pa 1t was test
of skill between the women of the Women's
Golf Association Of Philadelphia. an organ
ization which has fiourished for several
years. and the Women's Metropolitan Golf
Association Of New York, which was only
organized this season.
The New Workers demonstrated that they
were the superior golfers by defeating their
opponents by eighteen holes in an eighteen
hole contest.
The great surprise of the day to the Phil
adelphians was the defeat of their IDOL Miss
Francis Griscom, the woman champion Of
the United States. The New Workers Sc
lected their best player, Miss Genevieve
Hecker, champion of the Women's Metro
politan Golf Association, to meet Miss Girls
com.
A great crowd of golf enthusiasts gath
cred around the first tee to witness the
start. the competitors being led over the
links by the star attraction of the day, the
Griscom-Hecker match. In fact. Miss
Hecker was the first to drive off, and, to
the surprise of the gallery, she made a very
poor drive, merely clearing the rocky ra-
vine below the tee and getting into the
rough stuff at the foot of the opposite hill,
while Miss Griscom drove well to the top Of
the hill.
Miss Hecker seemed a trif1e nervous. and.
fiubbing her next two shots. played her
fourth before reaching the champions
drive. The hole is $50 yards long. and Miss
Griscom made 1t in six strokes, Miss Hecker
taking ten.
The second hole-515 yards-was also won
by Miss Griscom in six, Miss Hecker again
taking ten. Many who We're following the
match left it at this point, they did not
think Miss Hecker classed, and the match
was regarded as a walkover for the cham
pion.
Such, however, was not the case as Miss
Hecker pulled herself together after the
second hole. and played golf in true cham
pionship form, and at the turn honors were
even. Miss Hecker continued her brilliant
work in the homeward journey. and finished
at the home green two up on the champion.
1t was a brilliant victory for the young
Wee Burn girl. although exceedingly an
noying to Miss GriScOm. Their cards were:

There were other good, interesting
matches played, as Miss Beatrix Hoyt had
sweet revenge upon her old rival, Mrs.
Caleb F. Fox, whom she beat by two up.
Mrs N. Pendleton Rogers played great
golf and defeated Mrs. Gorham by six up.
Last years champion, Miss Ruth Under
hill, played quite up to her old FORM and
handily beat Mrs. Barlow by five up, while
her club mate, Miss Louise D. Maxwell,
Nassau County Country Club, made the
biggest win for the New York side by beat
ing Miss McNeely by seven I'D.

Mongoose Cures Malaria.

A story is told in Boston dispatch
through the New York Sun which is
hard to believe. The ship Ellen A.
Read just reached Boston from Ma
Mia. every white member Of the crew
was sick with malaria or dysentery,
and the Captain, c. F. Cam, of Var
mouth, died. The sailors, with the
regular sailor superstition, believed
there was Jonah on board, and final
ly fixed upon little mongoose on the
ship. Six sailors, with irons heated
In the galley stove, attempted on June
Both. to drive the animal into the sea.
Every one of the six was bitten, and
then the mongoose escaped. From the
moment they were bitten the sailors
began to improve in health and soon
they were entirely well. Later they
learned from two Filipinos on board
that the mongoose inhabits marshy
ground and Is proof against malaria
and swamp fevers. Its bite, In turn
they were informed, inoculated the
sailors and had overcome the malaria
in their systems. The result was that
the sailors changed their opinion, ana
instead OF believing that the mongoose
was a Jonah. they look upon him as
the savior OF the crew, and more or
them would fight to keep him on board
than fought 10 drive him overheard.
