THE OFFICIAL DRAWINGS FOR THE
AMATEUR NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.
FIRST PAIR TO LEAVE THE TEE AT A NJ
DOUGLAS TO PLAY WITH SEELEY AND
TRAVIS WITH HITCHCOCK.

With the exception of few minor details every
thing is ready for the national golf championship
which will start Monday at the Atlantic CITY
links. The drawings for the opening round were
made yesterday by the executive committee Of the
United States Golf Association, and the com
petitors paired in the order in which they
will face the first Except for providing for
particularly early start, action was taken 10
insure a finish before nightfau. Mr.. Kerr ex-
pressed the feeling of the committee by saying
that in of the probable defaults and the am
pie facilities afforded by the Atlantic City links
there to doubt the clubs ability 10
get every through before dark. Opposition
from influential sources has developed against the
plan of excluding accepted entries from the hsts
and the committee does not feel authorized TO go
ahead without consulting the various clubs
Arrangements have been made for a special train
from Atlantic City to Mortified. where the course
is located and this will enable the early players to
reach the grounds by o'clock in the morning
The first pair is scheduled to start at that hour
and succeeding pairs win follow at Intervals OF
four minutes II hitch occurs the last pair VIII
be away It's forenoon round by II :S6 a. m by
that time the earlier teams will have come in, and
they will be sent away Immediately on their sec
ond round. Each competitor will be obliged 10
cover thirty-six holes TO qualify, which means
twice around the course Those making the pest
thirty-two scores will be eligible for the cup, the
others dropping
The luck Of the draw has brought about several
interesting possibilities. Charles H. Seeley. of the
Wee Burn Golf Club is paired with Findlay s
Douglas. by whom he defeated for the metro
politan championship. and the old score may he
settled. Archibald Graham, the New-Jersey cham
pion will play with c. B. Macdonald while Walter
J. Travis the present national champion, will meet
Charles Hitchcock, tr.. Of Yale.
The identity of T f l." about whom so much
curiosity was expressed. was disclosed yesterday
by Secretary r B. Kerr, who decided 10 make
known the full name in place of the initials ap-
pearing on the oficiaI list. The player is T. E.
fynds, of the Deal Golf club of New-Jersey. and
he is paired with / G. Darby, OF the Aronimlnk
Country Club Of Philadelphia.

compliment that greatly pleased Mrs.
Morrison, who had not considered her

During the period OF wandering Mrs.
Morrison and her daughter went TO mi

mother helping at housework, while
Clara played with the farmers children.
This seems to have been the happiest
period OF her childhood, for food was
abundant, which it had not always been

had human companionship. She learned
TO ride horse bareback without a brI-
