The rumors that have been current for several
weeks regarding the plans of the Fox Hills Golf
Club eliminated yesterday In the definite announce
ment that David Brown. one of the best known
professionals the other side. has been secured
permanent professional at the Fox Hills course
Brown won the open championship OF England In
1856 and since that time has occupied high place
among the leading professionals abroad. Vardon
regards him one of the best men whom he has
ever met. and 1t largely on his recommendation
that Brown engaged. The Fox Hills players
have been the lookout for who could take
charge OF their course, and have considered scores
Of applications for the place. AS soon as IL was
learned from vardon that Brown open TO en-
gagement, however. these applications were put
aside. and negotiations were at opened with
Browns friends abroad. Yesterday cablegram
received stating that the clubs offer would be
accepted and that Brown would sail within the
next six weeks. The news received with gen.
eral satisfaction by those members who heard IL
last night. and the general opinion seems to be
that under his competent tutelage the club will as

were wondering yesterday whether snow rules

The Newark Athletic Club may withdraw from
the East Jersey Coast Golf League next season.
The relations between it's team and those of the
other clubs in the League have not been alto
gether satisfactory, and many Of the Newark
players are in favor of Withdrawing. When the
team championship held at Plainfeld this sea-
son some of the Newark golfers were protested as
not being regular members OF the club. and the
feeling caused by that incident Is SAID 10 De tne

DEFENCE OF THE CANADA'S CUP.
CHICAGO YACHTsMEN SADLY IN NEED OBJ A
TRIAL BOAT.

Chicago. Dec q (SpeciaD.-The yachtsmen here
who have the international challenge for the Cana
das Cup on their hands in dilemma about
possessing trial boat to test the defence craft
now to be built. There has been some talk OF re-
rigging the Prairie jib and mainsail yacht to
supply the want, but the Prairie was failure
two seasons ago. 1t is suggested that she has be-
come no better through disuse. Commodore Charles
H Thorne of the Chicago Yacht Club has helped
the matter by purchasing the Briar IS footer,
which was finished too late for the trial races for
this cup in 1899. The bulb the fin OF the Briar
was found wrong end foremost when she was fin
ished but this has been remedied. and she will be
possibility for 1901.
Unfortunately the Briar is unknown quantity.
and the Canadians have four fast and we'll proven
thirty-fives with which to try out their chal-
lengers 1t has therefore been proposed to buy one
of these. the Beaver, to act as trial horse. The
Beaver raced for the cup in the last contest and
is extremely fast, although she lost to the Genesee.
At the recent meeting of the Chicago Yacht Club
the building fund for the proposed clubhouse
received a good start in having $1,000 subscribed.
and 1t was thought that the balance OF the $4,000
required would be easily obtained. The members
say that as he Royal Canadian Yacht Club, at
Toronto entertained the Chicag goans in a fine club
house at the last in 1899, the defending club
should have a better headquarters than at present
for the return entertainment.

men chance upon fortunes. The fort
unes we know about are not found but
founded on a certain substantial basis.
The nature of that basis of fortune is
we'll set forth in the advice given BY a
successful merchant 10 a young man
who asked, what is the first requisite
TO making a fortune p "The FIRST re-
quisite TO making a fortune" said the
rich man, lis health" 1.-THE idea that
fortunes are made suggests toll and in
dustry and skill. Nothing can be made
without these. But a weak man cannot
toll. and industry is incompatible with
ill-health. II you want TO be strong
remember that all physical strength
comes from food and that the amount of
strength extracted from food depends
upon the ability of the stomach TO di-
gest food and assiunlate its nutrition.
The man who takes care of his digestion
is, in general, taking care of every other
organ Of his body"
SUCCESS AND THE STOMACH.
The merchant who gave the above
opinion may not have been much OF a
physician but he was a good deal Of a
philosopher. He had seen men with
success almost Wttniu the grasp, Dreak
down because OF Stomach trouble"
He had theorized the saying that the
Uweakest must 90 to the wall into the
saying that rthe man with the weakest
stomach must go to the wall" because
no man is stronger than his stomach.
The man who will learn this lesson Of
success has taken a great stride TO his
goal. Health is the first prerequisite Of
success and health in general means a
sound stomach and a good digestion.
Look at the logic OF the matter. Food
is a mans life, his strength. Physical
life is sustained by food. But the fact
that a thing can he eaten doesn't make
1t food Many physician practising in
the tenements OF a city says Of failing
men or women, rWhat they need is
RoHy1shfHP food" Shipwrecked men
eat scraps of leather, the bark of trees,
anything 10 satisfy hunger. But this is
not food in any true sense because IT
contains no nutrition. All food must
be considered in relation TO its nutritive
