ALMOST A SHUT OUT
Casinos, of Pfttsburs, Easily De-
feated BY WelIsb1rG. Yesterday.

Special to the Register.
WELLSBURG, w. Va, August s.
The home team easily defeated the
Casinos, of Pittsbarg. to-day. At no
time was the game in doubt. Not until
the fifth inning, after thirteen unsuc-
cessful attempts, did the visitors sue
coed in reaching the first bag. Yeager
pitched a superb game and was ably
supported. The game was too easy for
Wellsburg and lacked interest. The
visitors played well but were outclass-
ed. Next Saturday gainesville will
play here with Lucas In The box. This
will no doubt be the star game of the
season, as many Wellsburgers want 10

As announced in yesterdays Register,
Rev. Mr.. Howard and Mr.. George Wise,
Jr., played of on Friday, the former
winning by up.
The semi-finals will not be played for
several weeks, as the first class must
play the initial match and the third
class their semi-finals, before the Sec
ond class winners are called upon to
show their colors; meanwhile there will
be considerable humping on the links
by the successful players in order to
improve their score as much as pos
sible before their turn arrives for the
final matches
The outcome of these matches is a
pronounced increase in the interest in
the pastime and a most remarkable i'm
provement in the play over last year.
1t will not be long until the Wheeling
Golf Club can boast of some crack
players who can do honor to the club
in national contests.
James Braid, the present open cham
pion of Great Britain, is reputed the
longest driver In the world. On one
occasion his second shot at the SIX
tenth hole of the Muirfield links which
is 52S yards from the tee went 40 yards
past the hole; that is to say, his drive
and brassy shots represented 56S yards,
moreover, the distance from tee to hole
is an upward slope, 300 yards or so, be-
ing a sharpish ascent.
1t is predicted that Dr. Howard, of the
Woodsdalc club, will be, If he keeps up
his practice. one Of the longest drivers
in the club.
Mr.. J. c. Stamp is deeply interesting
himself In golf. He says the game has
come to stay. Mr.. Stamp has made an
