PHILADELPHIA, Dec. $50 far as the
number of events is concerned. the golf
season about finished seems TO have been
even more lively than some of the past.

matches were made more interesting by
the introduction of novelties. An unusu-
ally large number of women played and
figured very prominently in the more i'm
portant meetings.
The visit of the Oxford and Cambridge
golfers to America. well as that OF Miss
Rhona Adair, stirred up great enthusiasm
in the sections where they played.
The Boston women have succeeded IN
winning the leading Lonors Of the year.
They did by far the test of the Eastern
women in the national championship at
Chicago. Miss Fanny c. Osgood. OF Bos-
ton. and Miss Katherine c. Harley. of Fall
River, surviving to the semi-inals. Miss
Osgood then being beaten by Miss Anthony
by only one hole. Miss Osgood holds the
Boston women's championship. The Bos-
ton womens team also won the intercity
cup for the second time, defeating the
Philadelphia women in the final match at
Boston last month. This means that the
Griscom cup trophy must be played for
again in Boston next season. The compe-
tition was the fourth for the trophy, and
