BURNS AND BUXTON
BEATEN IN SEMI-FINALS
Church's Victory Over the Latter
the Surprise of the Day-The
Final MatchHWill Probably be
Played Monday Monday anc
Afternoon

Charles f. Davis and George D..
Church will play the final match for
the presidents cup at the Worcester
Golf Club In the semi-hnals yesterday
Davis beat Arthur H. Burns by three
up and two to play, and Church beat
William s. Buxton, by two up and
one to play Both matches were close
ly contested. The surprise of the day
was that Church should defeat Buxton.
All through the season the latter has
been playing the better golf and his
medal scores have been among the best
made on the links. He is at best, how
ever, in medal play. In the qualifying
round he turned in the lowest card,
an 81; Church made an SO. At the sew
enth hole yesterday Church was seven
up. After that Buxton rallied and
played fine uphill game.
Both matches started yesterday at
the No. / hole. In the Church. Buxton
match Church won the first hole, the
second went to Buxton, Church won
the third and fourth. and the fifth
was halved. By steady work Church
took the next two and had Buxton
four up at the seventh hole. This acted
as a tonic on Buxton and he won the
next four holes and squared the match
on the eleventh Church took the
twelfth and Buxton the thirteenth and
fourteenth which gave Buxton the lead
for the first and only time in the
match. Church took the next three and
won by two up and one to play. Bux-
ton lost the seventeenth hole by miss
ing a fairly easy putt.
The Davis-Burns match was close
also Davis won the first two holes.
and Burns the next three. The sixth
was halved. Davis squared the match
on the seventh and was one up on the
eighth. The next three holes were
halved. Davis took the twelfth the
thirteenth was halved the fourteenth
went to Davis and the fifteenth to
Burns. On the next hole Davis won
the match, three up and two to play.

GREENWOOD CYCLISTS
SECURE QUARTERS

The Greenwood Bicycle Club of Qutn-
sigamond which has been homeless for
the past month or more has secured
quarters at the corner of Greenwood
and Stebbins Streets, close to the Quin-
sigamond Methodist Church. The new
home of the club while not as attrac-
tive in appearance as the one that the
club was compelled to vacate, because
of the wish of the owner to let 1t for
family use, viii make a first class win
ter home for the club.
When the club got its notice to move
from the old quarters it came as a
great surprise to the members and
they were very sorry to leave, being
residents Of the house for such a long
period Negotiations were immediate
ly entered into with the owner of the
house at the corner of Stebbins and
Greenwood Streets and he, to the de-
light of the members of the club, sig
nified his willingness to let the place to
the boys Then he told them a few
days afterward that they would have
to wait a little while. But now he has
informed the members of the club that
they can have the place the first Of the
month.
1t was thought by the members of
the club that the Quinsigamond Meth
odist Church would object to having
a clubhouse so close to the church but
no protest has come from that quarter
and the boys do not expect any.

THE 2;27 TROT.
Jennie Hale was far and away the
best thing in the 2:27 trot. She was so
good she was a pFohibitive favorite
and the three miles were little more
than a work out for her. Lake Queen,
her nearest rival, was at no time dan
gerous and the others We're not con-
sidered factors in the race. Lake
Queen came down for the word in
company for the first time in her
career and she conducted herself adj
mirably, giving great promise for the
future.
The final heat wasn't more than a
buggy ride for Jennie Hale. She drew
the pole and jigged around the circle
twice in 2:24A with Lake Queen no
nearer than three lengths at any stage
of the mile.
The interest in the second heat was
conferred in the race for second place
as Jennie Hale was considered the
winner without question. Maud held
| the coveted place for the first three
quarters and then Lake Queen came
up and beateher without trouble in the
race to the wire.
Jennie Hale opened lead of five
| lengths in the third heat and. held it
to the half when Brennan pushed Lake
Queen and closed up on the leader, but
| Jennie had the speed and beat her
home by two lengths in 2:121R.

REGULATING MARRIAGES.

Speaking of the need of more strin
gent legislation regarding marriages
the Pioneer Press refers to the bill be-
fore the North Dakota Legislature two
years ago, which prohibited marriage
between the feeble minded, the insan e
and the victims of hereditary and &C
quired diseases, but it was defeated.
1t then comments at some leagth upon
the measures now before the Wiscon-
sin legislature, which provides for a
physician examination of the parties
desiring to enter the state of matri'
mony, and points out the unpopularity
of such legislation, though it would
be most just and blessing to society.
1t says:
Zone of it's provisions is for a physi'
cal examination of the candidates for
matrimony. Their repugnance to this
preliminary will not be much lessened
by the assurance that the examina-
tions contemplated are only such as
insurance companies require. and in
volve no assaults on modesty or de.
cency. 1t is certainly high time thai
some other considerations that those
of mere sentiment should be regarded
in the serious matter of marriage. II
is an absolute certainty that many 6

consummation of a contemplated mar,

They are entitled to the protection Of
an authorized physicians certificate
And the right of the stale to protect
itself against the sickening increase Of
an idiotic, insane, criminal or helpless
population is beyond debate.
"But it is doubtful if any legisla
ture would have the courage to enac
such law For the sociological rea
sons for it would have small weigh
against the general shock to the deli
cacy. especially of women, in being
subjected to such a physical examina
tion as a condition of entering into
the holy state of wedlock. The unpop
ularity of such law, even if enacted
would soon secure it's repeal. 1t will
be better received in the future, bu
it belongs to period considerably il
advance of the present stage of scien
tific enlightenment among the masses
of the neOnle. -

CHARTER COMMISSION.
The Terms of Alder men, Their Pay, and
ETC., to be Considered Tonight.

The judiciary committee of the char
ter commission did not meet Saturday
night, but the charter commission
metMonday night and considerd the pay
of the aldermen, the number of alder
men to the ward and the term of the
aldermen. AS the present pay, num-
Der and term of the aldermen is very
satisfactory, the commission would do
we'll not to create needless antagonis m
to the new charter by making unneces-
sary changes. The people are demand
ing a less number of officials rather
than a greater number, and one alder
man to each of seven wards is all that
the people can stand, as was remarked
at the last meeting by Ii. L. Schmidt.
IF aldermen were paid only for regu-
lar meetings and not allowed anything
for special meetings it would save the
expense of the seventh alderman and
at the same time not be a radical
enough change to create opposition.
The commission should remember that

1t was expected that Senator Towne
would address the senate today upon the
Filipino question, he having intro
duced resolution last week which
will give him the basis for it. The
secretary of the senate has raised the
point that Gen. Clapp having been
elected and received his certificate
for the unexpired term, that Mr..
Towne is no longer a senator, and has
not been. But Gen. Clapp having
generously held off so as not to take
his seat until tomorrow, it would be
too bad to deprive Tpwne of the oppor-
tunity of spouting today over techni-
cality.

We understand that the Mankato
Choral society, who are soon to give
the oratorio English, have requested
our Prof. Hugh Roberts to sing the
basso role. We are sure that should
Mr.. Roberts undertake this role justice

late the musical director of Mankato

a good thing when she hears it.-St.
James Plaindealer.
While the Free Press is willing to
concede all that the Plaindealer claims
for Mr. Roberts and that he would do
full justice to any part assigned him,
yet there must be some mistake about
arrangements being made with him to
sing for the Choral society, as one of
its members informed US today that
there had not been a meeting of the
society in two years and number of
the officers are now out of the city,
and no steps have been taken toward
rendering an oratorio. You must have
gotten into the wrong town.

ENGLAND AND ROYALTY.

The Chicago Inter Ocean speculates
upon what kind of king the Prince
of Wales will make, and what measure
of respect knowing him as they do,
the English people will be able to &C
cord him. 1t thinks that Victoria held
the broadening views of the English
people to monarchial ideas by her
womanly virtues and that her private
and public conduct broadened and
deepened their confidence in her that
as woman, wife and mother, she ap-
pealed to all knightly men, and that
they felt no loss when they knelt and
kissed her hand But around the head
of Albert Edward, it says, is none of
the halo which of divine right de-
longs to pure womanhood that he is
merely very human and very faulty
man, differing in nothing from thous-
ands of others. 1t recalls the debauch-
cries of his younger days and the fri
volity of his elder years and remarks
that unlike some of his predecessors on
the throne, he has not atoned for a
dissolute youth by a strenuous man
hood.
1t points out that he is master of no
science, military or otherwise, has not
aided his people to prepare for war or
led them in conflict. Neither has he
exhibited in any way any signs of
craftsmanship, and that his only and
chief distinction has been that of an
arbiter of fashion. 1t thinks that the
coming of such man to the throne
cannot inspire the people as to t he
'divine right of kings and that
strong honorable men cannot kneel to
him without feelings of disgust and
degradation that he can not in this
age be regarded as superior being,
and that by reason of what he has been
and what he is, he bids fair to give
the death blow to the monarchial idea
among English speaking people of
Europe.
There is much truth in what the In
ter Ocean says. But it is hardly prob
ably that English royalty will end with
Albert Edward, or Edward VII, as he
will now be known. The English peo-
pie love royalty, and have not yet
reached point where they will throw
it off. The king is stripped of much
of his power, and is really king only
in name. The people may not rever-
ence their new king as type of high
est manhood, but they will reverence
royalty and while he will not excite
the love which was given his mother
because of her many womanly virtues
and gentleness, he will receive re-
spect as king, which may be hard for
Americans to understand, but it will
be more of respect for the high royal
position than for the man who oc-
cupies it. But unless there is greater
revolution in English ideas than pre-
sent conditions indicate will take place
during the present generation, Eng
land is not likely to shake off roy atty
even because of Albert Edward.

MUST BE GOOD.
If FilipinOs Want Office They Must Ac=
knowledge U. S. Supremacy.

A special cablegram to the st. Paul
Pioneer Press from Manila says:
The Philippine commission today
passed bill providing that all persons
bearing arms against the United States
in the Philippines or giving aid to
persons in rebellion against the auth
GRITTY of the United States after the
first of April next will not be eligible
to hold civil Office. President Taft
sounded a note of warning and said
the time had come to separate the
goats from the sheep. The Filipinos,
he said, must now see the futility of
the instruction and the determination
of the American government to force
just policy of the fullest liberty COM
mensurate with the conditions. The
sole objection to the carrying out of
this policy, he said, is the action of
unorganized bodies of armed men who
are really criminals.
Twenty-Five of Gen. Funston S men
yesterday were attacked by the bandit
Tagunton and thirty of his men in a
deep ravine near San Isidro. Five of
the bandits were killed and Major
Brown of the Forty second volunteer
infantry, who accompanied the party,
encountered and killed Tagunton. This
man was the instigator of numerous
assassinations of friendly Filipinos and
made several attempts to burn the
town of San Isidro

PRAY FOR COLD.
Doctors Say Cold Weather Will Conquer
Grip.

Grip.
There are still hundreds of cases of
grip in the city, and the physicians
say there is scarcely any abatement in
the spread of the disease says the
Minneapolis Journal. While the ex-
periences of the doctors va ry some
what, nearly all of them admit that
they have their hands full with grip
patients and those suffering from the
attendant ills of the epidemic.
Every business house in the city has
suffered through the illness of it's en-
ployes, although in very many in
stances, the cases have been so light
that the unfortunates could partly at
tend to their duties. The railroads
have been great sufferers from the
epidemic, Chicago line being hard
pressed yesterday for brakemen to
take out its passenger trains.
The doctors declare that the grip
must run its course, and that nothing
but two or three weeks of cold,
equable weather will swamp it out.
In the meantime, they say, those who
have not had it had better make ar
,rangements for entertaining the di-
sease when it finally reaches them, as
it surely will before the season is over.
