tire, She Doomed Brothers Suit,
and Got Well Paid.

LENOX. Mass. Aug. 2s.-Eight-year-
old Sadie COnnors. in knickerboczers
was the star caddy at Saturdays tour
nament. on the links Of the Lenox Golf
Club.
Little Miss Connors had applied to a
New York cottager for the post Of cad
dy. and had been rejected. Thereupon
she dOnned a suit of her brothers clothes,
and, coneeaIing her hair beneath can
vas cap. made a second application and
was accepted.
She progressed famously until late in
the afternoon, when her cap fell or and
revealed her long hair.
The golfer TO whom Sadie was assigned
parted with her services reluctantly. and
gave her a generous tip in addition TO
the regular fee.
The cleverest caddy who ever tracked
a ball. was his comment.
Little Miss Connors Is the daughter OF
the caretaker Of the DR.. r. c. Greenleaf
estate.
