Golfers and Their Handicaps.
There were the usual obs and ''ahs''
and more emphatic ordinations when the
medal play entries saw the handicap hg.
ures which Mr.. Ashenden was marking up

golfers that no matter how careful and
impartial the handicapping may be they
are sure that they could have improved
the work so far as they are individually
concerned.

able New York.

An innovation was introduced in
social doings in New York the other
day by Harry Lehr, who gave what
was termed dog luncheon. It was
what might be called miniature
dog show, but it was a small affair.
and it is understood that there were
not more than half dozen Of the
CANNES present. When Mr.. Lehr sent
out the invitations he stated that the
guests We're to bring their pet dogs,
and those who came did SO, and from
what can be gathered all had an
amusing time, There were present
at this society dog show, besides Mr..
and Mrs. Lehr, Mrs. Herman Oel1ichs.
Creighton Webb, Mrs. William K.
Vanderbilt, Jr., Mrs. Oliver H. P. Bel
mont, James Lawrence Van Allen.
Mrs. John r. Drexel and Mrs. Elisha
Dyer. When the guests arrived they
found that a special table had been
arranged for the poodles, and they
We're seated on stools and, given a

with flowers. Following the dinner
prizes were offered for the dogs that
could do the best stunts, but it is
not known who We're the prize win
ners. 1t was stated that the dog din
ner ended in fight, but this is said
not to be SO; that everything went
OFF peaceably.

RATS RULE AN OFFICE.

Officials in the census office AZ

sause OF the hordes of hungry rats
which have made their appearance in
the building in search of food left by
employees of the bureau, and every ef-

that countless rodents have infested
the Office.
The rats have come from the old
sewer over which the census office is
built. a new consignment of rat
traps OF the largest size was import

to be waged on the pests.
The plan proposed for the exter.

OF the women clerks at work. Three
rats made their appearance in the
office to-day during office hours, and
small sized panic resulted among
the women clerks who saw them, For
few minutes high chairs were at q
premium.
Usually the rats do not show them
selves until after the departure of tha
clerks for the night. AS soon as tho
4 o'clock bell rings the rats appear,
and from then until morning they
hold possession Of the building. Great
quantities of edibles are left In the
waste baskets and on the floor by
the clerks. most Of whom bring their
lunches from home, and eat at their
desks.
The rats are becoming holder, and
they are now too wise to be taken
IN traps. They gain access to the
building through the cellar by Jump

show. Source of RIVER LONG.

The burning of the Pernod alb

had the result of settling the much
debated geographical problem as to
the source of the River LONG, which
issues from cavern DE- kilometers
northwest of Pont Arlielr. Prof. Four

tanned that the Long was merely an
offshoot of the Doobss Attempts
were made to prove this theory by
coloring the waters of the Doubs, but
the experiments led to mo results.
The question has now been solved.
During the Pernod fire 100000 litres
OF absinthe were poured into the
Doubs. This has now appeared in
the waters of the LONG, proving that
the river is fed through al subterra-
