Golf In the Old Days.

Centuries back golf was a pastime of
the royal family, though then usually
played in Scotland. The Stuart family
was very fond of the game, and the
first English club was established at
Blackheath in 1908 by James l. His
eldest son, Henry, frequently played
and on one occasion nearly struck by
accident his tutor with a club, where
upon he coolly remarked, HAD l done
SO had but paid my debts" Charles
I was playing golf when he received
the news of the Irish rebellion. James,
duke Of York, afterward James II, was
another ardent player. Golf is fire..
quently mentioned in ancient Scottish
records and in the fifteenth century
was prohibited because 1t interfered
with the practice of archery. Strut
considered it the most ancient game al
ball requiring a bat.-London Chron.

There seems to be strong impress
sion among yachting experts in the
east that the recently arrived chal-
lenger for the Americas cup, Sham
rock II, will put up the best fight for
the trophy that has ever been wit
messed, and the chances for her sue
cess are well thought of by those in
cl'ned to wager on the contest. Sir
Thomas Upton is a shrewd individ-
nal, and it is to be expected that he
has made good use of the experience
OF two years ago and made every cf-
e'rt to overcome the defects in his
boat which then left him in second
llace. However, the defender may
be depended on to uphold we'll the
reputation of her predecessors, and it
is good gamble that Sir Thomas will
again go back empty-handed. But If
;ale and fast boat combine to lift"
the cup, no Britisher will take more
good will along with it than the pres
ent seeker, whose sterling sporting
qualities and geniality have made
many friends for him on this side of
the Atlantic.

The Squirrel Hunters Weapon.

The cream Of squirrel hunting Is en-
joyel by the man who uses light rifle
Of small caliber and medium power.
The ".22 long" as now turned out by
our leading makers Is an excellent
weapon-in fact, the best in the world
for the purpose. Though not of suffi-
cient range to be dangerous to people
or stock at distance. it throws lead
with surprising accuracy to the tops Of
the tallest trees. Good rifle shots al.
ways aim for the squirrels head both
to add to the difficulty Of the sport and
to avoid spelling meat. And be II
known that squirrels head at a range
Of 40 or SO yards is no easy mark. II
q reader doubts this, let him 60 to the
woods for day. keep all empty shells,
and Mt the end of the day let him try
to make the dead squirrels and the
empty shells tally.-E. w. Sandys in
Outing.

IN SERVICE AGAIN.
Chaplain Stull to Renter the Army
Once More.

Within a few days Rev. George c.
Stull, who will be well remembered
as the chaplain of the First Montana
regiment, leaves to assume his new
duties as chaplain in the regular army.
Since the return of the Montana regi-
ment from the Philippines he has
been pastor of the First Methodist
church at Billings and last Sunday
preached his farewell sermon.
There are none Of the members of
the regiment from this state who .serv-
ed in the island campaign but will re-
member Rev. Stull and the noble work
he did during the years stay in the
field. mere were none but who on re-
turn thought well and many who low
ed the young chaplain who was here,
there and everywhere during the days
preceding the fighting and those that
followed. administering to the wants
of the men as he might find them.
There are many who will remember
when they were broke and all their
friends in like condition that they
could go to the worthy chaplain and
get chew of tobacco from his pri.
vate stock, as he always carried a
small store of the weed for distribu.
ton among those who were needy.
This is but one illustration of the
thoughtfulness of the chaplain and
among all of his rank in the field
there were none more popular than
Chaplain Stull from Montana.
In the work which he is to continue
there will not be one but who will
wish to shake his hand and wish him
God speed in his chosen calling

BLUNDERs IN FICTION.

The Queer Mistakes That Are SOme-
times Made BY Authors.
We smile as we read and pass swiftly
by the stories of maidens that wander
in lonely woods" at unearthly hours
of night, always clad in "a soft, white
clinging gown" Now, every girl knows
that the average maiden Is too much
afraid Of tramps and snakes to wander
In 'lonely woods" The weather, too,
appears to perplex our novelists, for
not infrequently they begin chap
ter at dawn, there are few mo-
ments' conversation, and then the "sun
sets in lurid banks behind the distant
empurpled mountains"
I am reminded at the outset Of an
English story written by an author Of
repute where the heroine in one scene
was made on one page to stoop down
and tie her shOestring, while three
pages farther on, directly following, it
was said of the same girl that she had
remained barefooted the entire day. In
another story blind woman is made
to view the hero through spectacles be.
fore the tale is ended.
In French novel-and we generally
consider French such literary masters
"a heroine Is clearly made to 60 direct
from her bed to the breakfast table,
out shopping, to an afternoon tea and
to dinner in her robe de mutt! Cousins
suddenly transformed into brothers
without moments warning are nu.
merous in this detectives library. Thus
one Is amused to find the most mar.
velous mistakes in books which we
think we have carefully read.-Modern

SIGNALING TO MARS.
The Dimculty Of Doing So By Means
Of light.

The DiMculty Of Doing So by Means
Of hight.
Tha very largest city that this earth
has ever known would be altogether
too small to be visible to. being
dwelling on the planet Mars, even If
that being were endeavoring to see 1t
with a telescope as powerful as the
greatest and most perfect instrument
In any observatory on this globe.
II the whole extent of Lake Superior
was covered with petroleum and IL that
petroleum was set on fire, then, think,
we may admit THAT an inhabitant of
Mars who was furnished with tele.
scope as good as that which Percival
Lowell uses at Flagstaff might be able
to see that something had happened.
But we must not suppose that the
mighty cOnflagration would appear to
the Marian as very conspicuous OBJ
ject. 1t would, rather, be a very small
feature, but still think it would not
be beyond the reach Of practiccd OBJ
server in that planet.
On the other hand, If an area the size
of Lake Superior on Mars was to be
flooded with petroleum and that petro-
leum was to be kindled, we should ex-
pect to witness the event from here not
as great and striking conflagration,
but as tiny little point of just dis.
cernible light. The disk of Mars Is
not a large object, and the conflagra-
ton would not extend over the three
hundredth part of that disk.
It is sufficient to state these facts to
show that the possibility of signaling
to Mars is entirely beyond the power of
human resources.-Sir Robert 8. Ball
in Independent.

pattern.

Reports from political circles in
Iowa say that the failure of the repub-
lican state convention to incorporate
an equitable property taxation pledge
in their platform has aroused so much
opposition throughout the state that
the democrats are greatly encouraged.
1t has developed that the railroads are
making an effort to bring about the
nomination of a democratic candidate
for governor who will smooth the is
sue, even though courageous decla-
ration of equitable taxation goes into
the platform, as is now practically
certain. Since the republican conven-
ton last week several candidates
have been presented who are known
to have been representatives of rail-
road interests, but the democratic
sentiment is so strong that the con-
vention will, if necessary, draft man
like Cato Sells, who is said to have
the character ana ability to command
general respect and will inspire the
confidence of all who are opposed to
railway domination and in favor of
equitable taxation. If the democrats
take advantage of the situation and
make the campaign on taxation and
other state issues, there is a growing
possibility of unexpected results.
