LADIES TO PLAY FOR A CUP.
Prize for the Tournament offered by
Mrs. C. III. Gibbes.


Mrs. c. II. Gibbes.
Another tournament will be held by the
Savannah Golf Club. 1t will be open only
to ladies, and it is expected that many of
the lady members Of the club will try for
the prize, a silver cup offered by Mrs. c.
II. Gibbes. Several who did not take part
in the last tournament viii play in this.
Day after tomorrow afternoon has been
appointed for the tournament. The play
ing will begin at $3.50 o'clock. After the
ordeal of their first tournament which
was that played on Memorial Day, it is
thought the ladies will be able to make
much better scores, as the novelty of the
thing will have decreased.
The first tournament was found to ad-
mirably serve the desired purpose OF add
ing to the interest of the members of the
club and 1t is believed that ii will be in
creased even more by the event arrang-
ed for day after tomorrow afternoon.

Watch the Chinese Yang Use
elect at Shanghai.

Washington, Aug. 1s.-As the result of
an exchange of cablegrams between the
Powers concerning affairs at Shanghai,
an agreement has been reached by which
all the admirals of the several Powers
represented at Shanghai will act concur
rently in survey, or watching, of the
Chinese Yang Use fleet, instead of having
this duty performed entirely by the Brit
ish admiral al Shanghai
This Chineses Yang Use fleet consists
of four cruisers and several torpedo boats
and destroyers. AS many transports are
carrying troops of che various Powers
to China il has been deemed necessary
to see that the Chinese warships did not
attack the unprotected transports.
The British commander has been exc
cutting the watch alone, but under the
new arrangement all will share in this
responsibility The United States cruiser
New Orleans will participate with the
other foreign ships there in this duty.
