WOMEN GOLFERS

Tournament To-day.

Of America VIII Hold Their Annual
Tournament To-day.
NEW YORK, August 27.-By far the
most important Of the interesting
championship tournaments held by
the Women's Golf Association of Amer
lea will begin tomorrow morning on
the links of the Shinnecock Hills club
at Southampton. Sixty-fve experts
have entered, and at least third of
these are believed to have excellent
chances of winning.
They have come from the West, the
South and the East, and each player
has spent weeks III perfecting her
game Miss Ruth Underhill the cham
pion; Miss Erarix, HQyt, the ex-
champion; Miss GenevieVe .Hecker, the
metropolitan chcacmpion; Miss Bessie
Anthony, OF Chicago, the western
champion; Mrs. Caleb Fox, of Phila-
delpbia, the silver medallist in the 1899
tournament; Miss Julia Clark. Miss
Frances Griscom, OF Philadelphia;
Mrs. A. Dewitt Cochrane, of Ardsley,
and numerous other stars have been
familiarizing themselves with the beau
tiful Long Island course.
Despite recent reverses and apparent
ly Indifferent work recently, Miss Hoyt
is the most interesting personality in
golf Her true game is remarkable,
and her admirers predict that she viii
play il this week and recapture the
title that Miss Underhill wrested from
her in 1899 Shinnecock Hills is her
home club and she knows every hill
and valley. every putting green and
fair green by heart In this she will
have a decided advantage over many
of her opponents.
Miss Underhill is hard worker and
puts up good sample CT golf, but her
game lacks brilliancy and therefore few
enthuse over her playing.
Miss Anthony, of Chicago, and Mrs.
Fox, of Philadelphia, are regarded as
really dangerous. but down in their
hearts fasteners fully expect to see
them beaten. Miss Julia Clark has
been attracting considerable attention
of late by her clever playing a. SHINE
cock Hills and she will have good
gallery behind her every day.
The favorite here is Miss Genevieve
Hecker The manner in which she de-
feated ell corners in the recent metro
politan championship tourney at Nor
ristown was astonishing. II was her
first appearance in IN open contest.
SO she was practically unheard Of.
Her preparation for the tourney this
week has been very careful, and the
woman who beats her Will doubtless be
the new champion

up his pitching sleeve while he was On
the rubber, for Cyrus would rather beat
Wheeling that win six games from 9TH
er clubs. Seven Hoosiers behind him
and Bergen on the receiving end, kept
up constant jollying, and the bleach
critics didn't make enough noise to
counteract the effect of this. They
failed to get the old man ratified.
In three innings, not a Wheeling
batsman reached the initial sack. Two
tried it before the rain came in the
fourth, and also failed. When they
bumped the ball it went straight into
the hands of the fielders. 'Cy' was
in great form, and Doggy Miller and
the rest of the bunch didn't relish the
idea of being driven off the diamond by
the shower Substitute umpire Hamm
decided otherwise, however and he is
as much an autocrat as if his name APP
peared regularly ON Charlie Powers

The crowd wanted to see the game
finished, and clamored noisily for the
teams to get out when the sun had
dried up the miniature lake in the in
field. The diamond was unfit, how
ever, and the game was called. Bum
pus" Jones was doing the honors for
Wheeling, and twirling in tip-tOp fash

sponsible for the solitary run that was
scored. 'Bumpus"' and Cyrus" will
both go on the rubber again this after

NEW YORK, August 27.-Another
match between James J. Jeffries and
Bob Fitzsmmons for the heavyweight
championship of the world, is now
assured. The contest will take place
within six months. Jeffres. through
his manager, William A. Brady, an

$1,000 and give him another chance TO
fight for the championship. Brady will
meet Fitzsimmons to-day, when articles
OF agreement for the battle will be
drawn up and signed by the contract
ing parties.
Brady explained that a match be-
tween the champion and Fitzsimmo3s
for Friday night is out of the question.
"Jeffries," said Brady, lis not in train
ing. and therefore could not do himself
justice were he TO fight on Friday
night. the day named by Fitzsimmons.
Three weeks ago the champion offere |
to meet Fitzsimmons in bout on Fri
day night, but the Australian decline |
the issue, saying that his fight with
Sharkey would be his last appearance
in the ring. Taking Fitz at his word.
Jeffries, who had been doing 8 little
training, quit work, and is now in no
shape to defend his title. Jeffries. how
ever, is willing to fight Fitz as soon as
he can get into shape, and cancel sew
eral theatrical engagements ne has
contracted for.
Within siS months the champ IN
car p4eparo Himself thoroughly for a
battle. If Fitz is reasonable when we
confer to-day. articles of agreement
for fight will surely be signed We
will fight anywhere. Carson City is
favored by Fitzsimmons, and will suit

which were lying near where the trous-
