ALL GET DISTANCE
Advocates Of Backhanded Are Cen
orally Long Drivers.
NEW ELASTIC FACE GOLF. CLUB
Patent Driver Proves a Success Ia
Experiments on the Links
in Los Angeles.

Considerable discussion has been raised
in the east over the fore or back handed
style of driving at golf. This style of
driving is one Of the methods evolved
as a result of the all-absorbing desire
for distance. Professionals one and all
declare that this style is not good golf.
Nevertheless there are few players who
in this manner.
In the metropolitan district it is
noticeable fact that three players who
play with their left hand below their
right get unusually good distance. There
is Marc M. Michael, of the Yountakah
Country club and runner-up to Allan Ken
naday in the last New Jersey state cham
pionship; H. Christi of the Newark, Ath-
letic club, and W. L. Glenney, the Column
bia college champion. For years Michael
has been famous for his long tee shots,
and it Is doubtful If there is an amateur
in the country to-day who will hold him
in driving when he is on his game.
Both Glenney and Christi are compara-
lively slight men and do not possess any
regarded as long drivers. To many who
have tried the forehand style it does not
seem to be conducive to good follow
through, although all of the trio men
toned find no difficulty in keeping the
shoulder free, which is most essential.
According to western golfer who has
tried a new invention in the way of clubs,
the limit of distance to be attained is by
no means reached. In describing the club
the Californian said:
Through the courtesy of the inventor I
| was privileged in seeing club fitted with
| a patent elastic face. I am not at liberty
to mention the inventors name, as the
! idea has not been perfected yet, but q
patent has been applied for and is fully
protected in that way. The club was put
to practical test at the Los Angeles
| Country club before several golfers, in.
Guiding the president Of the Southern
California Golf association, r. H. Hay
Chapman. All those who tried the club
were unanimous in agreeing that they
had never before seen balls driven sc
far
It Is understood that the ball used il
this test was an ordinary guilty. Every
one is wondering when this craze for dis
tance will cease. A Scotch professional
declares he don't know what the game
is coming to, any way. He thinks tina
possibly before long the inventors will be
turning out clubs with explosives in the
head capable of propelling a ball a mile
or more. There is no doubt that the
innovations Of the last two years have
we'll nigh demoralized the exponents O.
the old school.

MOOSE VERY PLENTIFUL
Full Grown Bull Is Captured In q
Public Park. s-.

Moose are very plentiful in Maine this
season. A full grown bull moose was
captured the other day in the Toothaker
park, at Phillips, which has high board
fence around it. ~
Two men driving down the road near
the park saw the moose ahead Of them ny
the roadside and drove him before them
until they came to the entrance Of the
park. The moose entered and xhe men
closed the gate. .":ss@
The captured moose seems very docile,
and can, he caught at any time. Alf
Withbee. guide, thinks that the animal
is one that was for some time confined at
Carrabassett by Mr.. Smith.
G. e. Rideout met good-sized bull
moose near ALLEN Bridge, Ma, recently,
He was driving up a hill and as he went
over the pitch there stood the moose in
the road waiting for an attack. Rideout
is the mail carrier here and it looked first
a though the moose was going to dispute
the possession of the road with Uncle
Sans mail. Before the team reached
him, however, he turned and went into
the woods.

champion, who whipped Tommy West of
Brooklyn at the recent ,f1stic carnival of
the National Sporting club, London. has
returned from England.
When he landed Walcott was attfred in
a neat fitting English suit and diamond
nearly as large as a peach nut flashed
from his shirt front. He evidently had a
prosperous trip, for both of his pockets
were filled with greenbacks. During hia
stay abroad Joe cultivated pronounced
English accent, which he used much to the
amusement of his friends. In a talk Wal
colt said:
'I had a lovely time on the other side.
After defeated West I went to Paris and
saw all the sights there, and also took in
the races. Paris is a great city, but the
French language nearly knocked me dizzy.
Once when I ordered drink in one of the
hotels the waiter did not understand me
and brought me pen and bottle of ink.
When l expostulated he said something
that sounded like 'noncomprepa.'
thought he wanted to shoot craps, and I
said: Come seven or eleven Finally I
got him to bring me what I wanted.
"In London the sports treated me roy
ally. After my victory over West>I was
dined and invited to lot Of swell clubs
and private houses"

BIGGER PONIES USED
POLO AS PLAYED IN ENGLAND
stableman of the American Team
Describes the international
Games in England.

Mike Sheehan, head stableman of the
Rockaway Hunting club, who went to
England in charge of the ponies used by
the american polo team at Hurlingham
in the international cup contests, has re-
turned and has much of interest to say
about the trip.
II took over twenty three ponies and
brought back twenty-five. J. M. Water
bury, Jr., having bought a couple over
there" he said. with Mr.. Keene's lot
we had osome thirty ponies, while the
Englishmen had 700 to choose from. The
regulation as to height had bee waived
by mutual consent, as the Americans
others over 14.2 hands, but this worked
against our team. for the Englishmen, on
account of the heavy going, used their
biggest and heaviest ponies. I don't think
one of them was down to the limit OF
14.2 hands. Contrary to my expectations
I did not see any Indian ponies or Arabs
for the Englishmen had thoroughbreds
and most of them bred in Ireland. One
Of the best was chestnut mare that was
fully 1872 hands and had been bought out
after winning a three mile and "a hall
steeplechase in ireland.
ut goes without saying that they hcd
the legs of our ponies. The English
gentlemen are great horsemen, for they
put in most of their time at hunting
ers with the greatest courtesy, but in the
preliminary matches they were simply
laying their plans for the internationa
games, and they are shrewd mechanics
Sure, they knew the capacity of every one
Of our ponies as well as we did. The
first match showed our men were keen al
riding off tactics and after that they ad.

1.-THE ma tches there are in six period!
Of ten minutes each, instead of four O.

minute interval between goals as in thi.
country nor any time out to change ponies

each period is continuous. The only
thing time out would be allowed for woult
be a very severe accident to one of thu
players. No attention is paid to minor
accidents. The result Is fast polo, will

No man can succeed in polo there, who i

DUCKS ARE NUMEROUS
= SEASON HAS BEEN FAVORABLE
Young Birds May BE Found in
Thousands in Northern MIN
nesota Lakes.

Ducks will be numerous this fall. The
season has been favorable to them. In
the northern lakes Of Minnesota ther are
now to be found young birds in thou
sands, scarcely able to fly, as one paddles
through the rice beds. They are food for
big fishes ard turtles, but still there will
be plenty Of good shooting for sports
men who come north. a-
A court decision made last week has
fallen like wet blanket upon the hunt
ers of big game, for 1t is held that the
law prohibiting the killing Of deer out OF
season is void. It appears that other
big game was enumerated in the law, but,
through an oversight, deer were omitted
from the prohibited class. " -.
Unless an appeal is taken the result of
this decision will be the indiscrimirate
slaughter of deer from this time on until
the law can be amended in February next
Farmers report that prairie chickens
and quail, while not SO many as last year
will afford good shooting n the western
border OF the state, and ii the Dakotas,
and that grouse and partridges are -four
ishing in the timber, especially in those
localities where the timber has been
burned over or removed by lumbermen
AS these latter localities are in close
proximity to some of the best fishing re-
sorts, both sports may be combined.

Is A WONDERFUL MARE
BESSIE Bonehil1's Performance EIfc-
its Praise of HOrsemen..

BESSIE Bonehill's Performance EIfc-
it's Praise of Horsemen.4,,
A most notable occurrence Of this month
was that Of the pacing mare Bessie Bone
hill when she paced a mile to wagon at
the Empire City Park matinee in 2:071a.
This daughter Of Empire Wilkes has a
record OF 2:05A, but since making that
record she has been three years in the
brood mare ranks and has raised two
foals. She was placed in trainers hands
after the weather became warm this
spring, and that she should become the
champion wagon performer of the year
so soon after going into training is little
less than wonderful. Few mares placed in
the breeding ranks after. arduous cam
paigning ever show high class racing form
again. Bessie Bonehill seems to be one
Of the exceptions, and it will not be sur
prising If she places her name in the 2: :05
list before the end of the season.

MISS TODD IS FAST
A1onzo DTcDona1d's Two-Year-old
Fi1ly Shows Great Speed.

Alonzo McDonald's 2-year-old -flly,
Miss Todd, by Peter the Great, 2:07A,
out OF Fanelle, 2:22A, by Arion, semes to
be about the fastest 2-year- old trotter In
sight just now, and her trainer does not
mean to injure her BY entertaining, as
he has sent her to the Forbes farm to run
out for the next month. Just before
turning Miss Todd out, Mr.. Mcdonald
drove her mile In 2:31, last half in 1:0s1z
and last quarter in 321s seconds. This
is rate Of speed that would be creditable
to the average mature trotter eligible to
the 2:20 class, and indicates that the
daughter of Peter the Great will be a
factor in, If not q winer of, any 2-year-
old event in which she starts next fall.

SWORD FIGHT on HORSEBACK
Unique Spectacle at the Caledonian
Games in Santa Fe. ~

Games In santa Fe.
A unique feature Of the Caledonian
games last Saturday at Santa Fe Park
was sword combat from horseback. The
principals in this affray were Captain
Ivan De Malchin, who is said to be the
champion swordsman Of the United States,
and Barley Gushing Of New York. Accord
ing to the rules Of the contest there were
to be twenty-one attacks. Captain De
Mauchin is said to have been formerly an
officer in the Russian Imperial Hussars.
Since he landed in San Francisco about
six years ago he has been engaged as in
structor of the National Guards Of Cali
fornia, Oregon, Washington, Colorado and
Missouri, and OF various athletic clubs In
the west. He has defeated some of the
best swordsmen in Europe and America.
His notable victories in the United States
were at San Francisco, Cal, over Sergeant
Owen Davis, champion Of the United
States army, in 1896.

A Postmaster's Troubles.

If YOU think public officers do not have
troubles of their own, Just ask Postmaster
Bell. shortly after the establishment OF
the free delivery system, complaints
were made to the department that the
postmaster, in his zeal to add to the I'M
portance of the city, had encouraged the
sale of stamps, other than those licked
at home. The department evidently
became alarmed at the threatened de-
struction OF the stamp licking industry
at Aberdeen, and has since made lie
burden to the postmaster.
Notwithstanding that an inspector re-
ported the conduct OF the +. Nj. to nave
been all right, and the department notl-
fed Senator Foster that the complaints
AGAINST Mr.. Bell were unfounded, the
fourth assistant postmaster general kept
up the nagging at that official until MS
patience became exhausted, and on the
9th of MAY he sent his resignation to
Congressman Cushman. stating that the
department appeared to be unwilling to
be satisfied with him. and authorized
Mr.. Cushman to do as he saw lit with
the resignation.
In the meanwhile Il number OF leading
republicans endorsed X. Z. Campbell FOR
the place, to be appointed upon the ac-
ceptance of Mr.. Bells resignation. THIS
was a complete surprise to MIR. Camp
bell, who had not applied for the place
but whose appointment would be emil.
nently satisfactory to the people OF
Aberdeen regardless Of politics.
Later, the feeling obtained that Mr..
Bell was not being treated fairly, and
his friends induced him to recall his re-
signation, which he did by wire yester-
day. and petition is being signed now
for his retention. This petition is being
signed by many who opposed MIR. Bells
original appointment, but who do not
wish him sacrificed by reason OF his
fidelity to the city, and the usual Ameri'
can desire to see fair play.

DEFINE THE POLICY.

Ina speech in the senate Mr.. Narmack
of Tennessee made an interesting point
when he said that the American people
have . RIGHT TO demand that the party IN
mower 81 all define its policy in the Phil
ippine Islands. Or this point Mr.. Car
mack said"You asked us to wait until the
treaty had been ratified. and we waited.
Then you asked us to wait until the IN
surrection had been suppressed, and we
have waited for that. You have exhaust
ed the last pretext, and 40 other excuse
stands between you and the performance
of your duty. The American people ana
the people of the Philippines alike de-
mand that you shall frankly declare your
intentions in this matter. and both have
right to know They are not willing
to trust blindIv III tile wisdom OF your Sec
ret designs. You are trying to lead two
peoples blindiold, one into policy OF I'M
perialism, contrary to all its laws and
traditions, the other into acondition OF
political ssrvitude, contrary toall its just
hopes and expectations. You have OBJ
iected that YOU would make no answer
to men who came to you with guns IN
their hands; but, sir the people who have
been knocking at your door, whose
memorial lies upon your table, did not
come with gins in their hands. They
came with nothing but peaceful petit
ton, and they came as the accredited
friends of your government and the sup
porters OF your sovereignty in the Phil
ippine islands. They are the men by
whose help, a: Governor Taft testified,
more has been done to pacify the Phil
ippine Islands than all your armies in
the field. BY their long, faithful, and
effective service they have right to be
heard and right to be answered. They
will not patiently submit to your acts OF
desporism and trust in your vain and de-
lusive promises forever"

OFFICIAL GLOVER BED.

Upon information received, which
we have every reason to believe as
true, 1t is claimed mat when Deputy
Assessor Thompson was transferred to
the Eva district, he was to be there
to act in concert with former Deputy
Assessor Archer, both to receive equal
pay. One reason of this .transference,
SO we are informed, was because that
that district is just now beginning to
loom up as taX-producing portion Of
this division and centre; and another
reason is that by having a haole Off
cial, the property owners cannot do as
much bulldosing as is claimed to have
been done to the easy-going nature of
the part-kanaka official, the latter not
having been sufficiently schooled in
the intricate methods employed in the
tax department of how to gather more
by increasing values.
