 the national championship. Mrs. Horne, since engaging in matrimony, has an nounced that she will not defend her title next year. She has been the win ner of Is open tournaments, and has a collection of some AT cups, medals. fobs and other prizes. Her string of victories far surpass that of any other golfer west of the Alleghenies and probably very closely approaches the number of hon. ors that any one golfer in the country can lay claim to. Mrs. Horne began playing golf in 1899, and though she did not devote much attention to her game until 1900, she was able to play very clev- erIy after about four months practice. In 1900, however, she spent much of her time on the links, and before the year was out succeeded in performing the remarkable feat of winning the gov ernor's cup at Onwentsia, which was considered the western championship. Her play the past year was but repeti- ton of her work of the two previous sea- sons. Consistency always was Miss n- thony's long suit, and it was indeed very seldom that she was off her game. She WaS uOL lncllneu to pc Srrdllc ana was probably the coolest woman player on a western course. One of her finest char acteristics as a golfer was her nerve. On more than one occasion when her match was all but finished and defeat seemed evident, she buckled down and did what had to be done in order to win

east would indicate that his efforts may bear fruit. Enough interest has been stirred up in New York to start the bowl CTS discussing the proposition and west erners would not be surprised to see New York well represented in the big annual event. Only two men were entered from Greater New York in the Indianapolis tourney, but at that time the absence of the GothamiteS was attributed to the long Journey as much as to the loaded ball question. If Mr. York succeeds in bringing the eastern cracks into line again, he will be credited with notable accomplishment. Western tenpin men would like to see the customers compete in the next years affair, as without the Gothamites it loses some of its national aspects, as we'll as losing the inter-city rivalry between Chicago and New York. Since the customers split with the vest ern men two years ago at the Buffalo convention they have not taken any ac- tive participation in the affairs of the congress, organizing instead local as- sociation in New York to govern their affairs The chief reason for the split between the east and the west was the loaded ball, and, while the present rules limit the weight of a ball to 161a pounds, the New Workers insist on an all-wood ball. However, the men in the me- tropclis are still rolling under the A. B. c. rules and regulations, and while a few leagues retained their membership in the national organization last year. they failed to enter team in the Indi- annapolis events. With the adoption of the new constitution and bylaws by the A. B. c. the situation as to membership has been changed entirely. Formerly kha A. B. c was composed of leagues. but now 1t deals exclusively with clubs through city associations

kins Odds.
 Training is apparently not a pastime with Dan Mcleod, who on next Tues day night hopes to win the American wrestling championship from Tom Jenkins in Madison Square garden. Ivan Zarloff, Russian, has been help- ing Mcleod in his work for week or more. In a bout yesterday afternoon Mcleod secured an arm-lock on the Russian, who refused to give in and go down. The result was that he sus- tained very badly sprained shoulder. Mcleod is stronger for this bout than for any other he has taken part in in two years. He is confident of defeat ing Jenkins, and will bet more money than the $1,O00 he has on with Jen- kins at the prevailing odds, which will likely be about 10 to s in favor of Jenkins.

Phelam went at Terry with vengeance, but the once famous Terry made him look like a novice in two rounds by putting him to sleep with short left hook to the jaw. This was the first time that McGovern had had the gloves on since he hurt his hand in his bout with Jimmy Briggs before the Criterion club of Boston.

E. W. Wilson Essays to Solve the
Problem of Dissatisfaction
OF Officers.

The Utah Democratic club met IN the
Office of Secretary Geroge d. Alder last
night and discussed the political situa-
ton with particular reference to the
policy TO be pursued with regard to the
Forthcoming city election and whether
or not II would be advisable to place a
ticket in the field. On this point there
was division of opinion ana the meet
ing adjourned without arriving at any
definite conclusion.
The principal business of the meeting,
which was presided over by Hon. John
L. Game In the absence OF President
james ii. Moyle, was the election of
officers, the following being nominate
ed and elected J. H. Moyle PRESIDENT;
II. l.. Morris and Mahonri Spencer, vice
presidents; George II. Wood treasurer;
George ID. Alder, secretary; board of
trustees, j. II. Moyle, Mahonrl Spencer,

was also made and adopted that the
club vote Secretary Alder a paid-up
certificate In the club and receive no
dues from him while he holds the Of
flee of secretary. A vote of thanks was
also extended President Moyle for past
services.
CAMPAIGN EXPRESSIONS.
The question of the city election was
then taken up and expressions made by
most of those present. G.. l.. Olson
advocated a campaign by saying If
as has been said we are afraid OF
church influence that is no excuse for
giving up the fight. This opposition
should make us night all the more"
f. u. Stephens thought ticket
should be put up, but that no cam
paign should be waged.
c. r. Overfield said that the party
should remain alive because the action
Of Roosevelt In antagonizing labor and
capital gave a good chance for Demo-
cratic success nationally, and the local
party should be ready for any emergen-
cy that should arise,

WILSON'S LITTLE TALK,
Il. w. Wilson essayed to solve the
problem of defeat at the last election
by saying: You talk of nominating

JEWISH NEW YEAR.
introduced Last Night by Special Ser,
vices-Sermon by Rabbi Reynolds.

The Jewish New Year was introduced
last night by special services with the
two Jewish congregations. At the Jew
ish temple, Rabbi Reynolds preached a
sermon appropriate to the occasion, in
which he said:
THE New Years day, one of the
most solemn festivals In the Jewish
calendar, derives its sanctity and i'm
portance not from a historical source.
but rather from deep and Supremacy
intense consciousness of the ethical
principle which dominates the psyche
logical life OF the jew. Though the
celebration OF the festival IL enjoined
In the Old Testament, Il is clear from
the context that the commandment IL
not original, but rather remindful OF
an observance already hoary with age,
and which the people must have held
sacred for centuries before that time.
The chronology of the festival In based
upon the mundane era and the lunar
years, this being the year 1904
THE spiritual character of the day Is
exceedingly beautiful and suggestive,
expressing and emphasizing as il does
the idea that the all Importance of
time and Its natural divisions lies In
the emphasis It gives to and the watch
II keeps on the proper fulflment of our
manifold duties.
Thus the first day of the year in
stead of being day OF worldly pleas
ures and lndulgences, Is to the jew a
day OF deep reflection and strict ac-
counting. IL Is a memorial day where
on the works and activities OF the
whole year are analysed In the crucIble
OF memory. to find their shortcomings
and deficiencies. Standing as II does at
the meeting point OF two years IL lays
stress not merely on the consideration
of past mistakes, but also and most
especially on good resolves for the new
year. The services consist of prayers
and Biblical selections which bring the
foregoing Ideas into bold relief. The
Shofar OF the rams horn Is blown
ceremony which IL symbolcal of a
spiritual warning, calling and remind
ing the faithful OF the Importance and
sanctity OF the day.
