verse Conditions at Brooklinc,

Brookline Mass, Oct. mo set Of
women golfers ever struggled against
more adverse conditions than the 80

ralnstorm, plyed over the Country club
course in the first round Of the national
golf championship.
The first pair who found themselves
on equal terms at one end of the eigh-
teen holes were Miss Ruth Underhil Of
the Nassau Country club and Mrs II.
q. Brown Of the San Francisco Golf
club. At one time Mrs. Brown was

the long eighteenth hole proved too
much for her and Miss Underhill tied
the score. Then the Nassau player took
the hole by excellent putting.

KAISER AND THE BOERS.
German Onlclal Circles Astonished
AT English Comments.

Berlin, Oct ministerial circles are
astonished at ihe anti-German express
slons In the British press I'm connec-
ton with the application Of the Boer
generals to be received by Emperor
William. What his majesty, It appears,
really intended was to have given the
generals some good advice tending to
promote harmonious relations between
the Beers ana British during the polltl-
cal reconstruction Of South Africa. The
widening Of the gap between the British
government and the Boer generals
seems TO have given the emperor the
idea, according TO semi-oilicial talk,
that he could serve both the British
and the Beers by counsellng the latter
to forego the agitation which has arts
en- on the continent on the basis Of
what is called Great Britain's ungener-
Gus treatment Since however. Emperor
Williams object Is whole misunder-
stood IN England It is said definitely
that the generals viii not be received

ENGINE WAS BUMPED
The Throttle Opened and a Wild
Runaway Resulted

Oakland, Cal. Sept. 5.-An extra switch
engine Of the Southern Pacific company.
while standing beneath the coal bunkers
in the West Oakland yards last night
waiting for change Of crews, was
bumped into a freight train and the
throttle thrown open. The locomotive
plunged forward instantly and began a
runaway trip through the network of
hundreds OF sidetracks and headed for
the West Oakland mole. where a dozen
trains and 2.5o0 passengers for san Fran
cisco were waiting To be carried overland
To- local points. BY fortunate chance,
the tower man knowing that the engine
was not manned. threw the runaway on
an extreme outside track. thus averting a
collision with the standing trains or pre-
venting the iron monster from crashing
through the waiting rooms at the ferry
depot. crowded with human beings. The
runaway attained a speed of 1hirty-fve
miles an hour before it plunged OF the
end Of the track into the waters OF the
hay. making a leap Of fully thirty feet.
