He shows marked superiority in his short
approaches and his work on the green,
winning several holes BY better han par
work with his irons. Byers was rather
unsteady on the green's. He missed sew
eral puts that he should have negotiated
and also badly topped one Of his drives.
This was due, however, to his foot slip
ping on the soft tee.
Part Of the game was played in a hard
rainstorm that quickly nlled the course
with miniature lakes and even gathered on
the green's, both players using lofting
irons several times where a putter was
the conventional club. Several hundred
golf enthusiasts waded over the course be-

New York, Nov. 25.-Politics is an
ever live topic in New York. Scarcely
does one campaign pass, before plans
are instituted for the next This fact
is emphasized by the preliminary
maneuverings already under way for
the great mayoralty struggle Of next
year. AS it appears year ahead of
the election, the situation is distinct
~ favorable to the return Of Tammany
to power. Despite the fact that the
organization of year ago was defeat
ed. demoralized, disgraced and left
without a leader, it has again display
ed marvellous powers Of recuperation
No one can deny that Tammany mas
been rehabilitated in no small measure
by the recent election It has discov-
cred new leader in Charles F Muir
ply who has q fine gift of silence and
a level head. Success has confirmed
him in his place Of authority. The
old organization, therefore, enters the
new year with renewed strength and
with the advantage Of an unmistake-
able reaction against the reform ad-
ministration of the city government.

There is no surer way to judge the
rapid growth of New York than by the
continual demand for rapid transit
facilities. Bven though the under
ground railroad will soon he finished
and the city is assured of the Penn
sylvania tunnel, there will be de-
mand for another system as soon as
these are in operation. Ind eed this
demand Is already heard and VII grow
in intensity as soon as 1t is discoY-
cred that the subway and Pennsylvan-
ia tunnel win no more than meet the
needs Of the present and will not ma
terially provide for the needs Of the
future. The city is, in fact renewing
itself every decade. Mayor Low has
ju called attention to the fact that
water front lands filled in twenty five
years ago were now being dug out
because It was discovered that not
more land. but more pier room was
needed The great Office buildings OF
today become antique in ten or fifteen
years, and so the march Of progress
continues.
