GOLF CUP WON BY
MRS. FORD CHAMPION

The seventh preliminary tourna-
ment for the women's handicap cup
was played on the links of the Rock
Island Arsenal Golf club yesterday
afternoon. The weather was ideal
for golf and large crowd of enthu-
siasts followed the game. Nine pairs
started, fair number considering
the fact that many of the more reg
ular players are out of town.
Mrs. Ford Champion, with a gross
of 156 and a 40 handicap, won the
match, finishing with net 116. The
scores follow:

STATEHOOD BILL DELAYED.

Speaker Henderson has changed front again on the question of consideration of the bill admitting Oklahoma, Ariz- ona and New Mexico to statehood. Lsst week he stated that he would allow the bill to be called up as . privileged motion, instead of fixing 6 day for it's consideration. The bill is now on the calendar as priviliged, and Monday movement was started by the delegates from the three territories to have it called up Wednesday ahead of the Cuban reciprocity bill. While this matter was under consideration the speaker sent to Mir. Knox, chair man of the House committee on terri tories, and announced that he had de- cided to fix date for the consideration of the bill. He will announce the data in few days, and assured Mir. Knox that the bill would be considered in ample time to have it sent to the Senate without danger of having 1t killed there by lack of time for it's dis cussion at the present session. Chair man Knox informed the speaker that a sufficient number of votes had been pledged to secure the passage of the bill by good majority.

UTAH rLIRrs WITH ARIZONA.
seekers.

A statesman of the name of Suther- land, who is member of congress and halls from Utah, has introduced bill annexing that portion of Arizona north and west of the center of the Colorado river to Utah.
 Mir. Sutherland is no doubt humOr- ist and eager to dispel the heavy clouds of solemnity that sometimes hover over congress when Joe Cannon and windy Pete Hepburn are not engaged in a scrap. But if Mir. Sutherland Is serious no one should blame him for his pro posal.
 It is a tribute to mans intelligence that he should be able to recognize a good thing when he sees it, and it Is nothing but human nature for a states man as well as a plain citizen to be avariciOus. We don't blame Sutber- land; on the contrary we are disposed to admire him. If we cannot appre- ciate his modesty, we can at least ad- mire his gall.
 But suppose Sutherland should te able to secure the passage of his bill-- then what would be done? How would he effect the anuexing? He would have harder job on his hands than our dear cousin John Bull has in benevOlently assimilating the Boers. Why, even the wild ponies, the Gila monsters, not to mention the mountain lions and the fighting bears, would go into rebellion. And the men and the women and the children-they wouldn't do a thing to q Utah sheriff or judge who attempted to exercise jurisdiction over them.
 Utah had better cultivate its present plan of pOlygamous innOcuOus desue- tude. If it wants to find out what a real fighting spouse is let it undertake to take rib of Arizona to it's bed and bOard.-Tucson Citizen.
