Golf Notes.

:. Since w. c. Fownes. r., of Pittsburg

teurs have been experimenting. 1t may be
said without contradiction, however. that
rty-eight-inch drivers have not been a
great success.

The links of Pinehurst N. c., literally

According to George Low, the Baltusrol
professional, there is no certainty of Open
Champion Willie Anderson and Bernard
Nichols making tour of the Florida greens
this winter with him.
Cincinnati is to have q new eighteen-hole
course next year. Residents of Avondale
have acquired long-term lease on a tract
of seventy-five acres at RoS Hill, and in
tend to spend large sum OF money deyel-
oping a first-class links. The organization
is to be known the Avondale Golf Club.
A golfer of an inventive turn of mind has
devised club that can be used by either
right or left-handed player. The adaptabili-
ty of this new weapon must be apparent to
all close followers of the sport, as there are
times when one gets lies where 1t is next to
impossible to play the ball right-handed
The same thing. OF couf Sc, holds good with
left-handed players.
1t Is just possible that the three national
golf championships of 1904 will be held in
the east. This section seems reasonably GER
tain of securing the women's event, and 1t Is
intimated on good authority that Philadel-
pllia will make another effort to secure the
amateur contest for men. The Boston dis
trict is also in line for a championship, but
as the open has been held twice at Myopia,
the Bostonians are likely to make bid for
the amateur. Philadelphia has had neither
of these tournaments as yet. and 1t. Is ques-
tionable whether the Quaker city would
care to take the open.

MYSTERIES OF ENGLISH CASTE.

The Things a ''Gentleman' Cannot Do
 are Too Numerous, by Far. to Cata-
 logue.
 A sort of -Four Hundred" atmos- phere permeates England. writes syd- ney Brooks in "Harper's Weekly" In America one gets a whiff of It on Fifth avenue and at Newport. but in Eng land one is never away from it. The number of things, for instance, that a ''gentleman'' cannot do without losing social caste is, in England, so prodi- gious as to form, if I may borrow a phrase from the present fiscal contro- versy, almost a schedule of forbidden industries. There are some trades and professions that are respectable" and those that are not Only an English man knows which is which, why doc tor ranks socially above a dentist. why the man who sells should be irretrieva- bly, below the man who manufactures and he, the Englishman. knows it by an instinct which is born in him and which he never examines, and so can not define.
 Any one who can tell why the mer- chant should consider himself, and be considered by others. the social supe- rior of the biggest storekeeper in the kingdom, will be well on the way to- ward understanding England. The daughter of a wealthy manufacturer of kettles marries the owner of the largest dry goods store in London. Why should she be thought and spoken of as having married little, though only a little, beneath her? Personally, I do not know. I merely observe, without attempting an explanation, that the man in the wholesale business is more looked up to than the man in the retail business, that while the former is not averse from talking about his affairs, the latter is only too anxious to ''sink the shop" and that social position in England is regulated by host of per fectly fictitious and conventional con- alterations more readily felt than ex- pressed.
 Any one who has looked into English trade unionisn must have realized how largely 1t is mixed up with class spirit. The workman who knows that his em- ployer drives down to the office at half past ten, takes a couple of hours for 1 lunch, is home again shortly after five, and thinks himself somewhat of q "hus- tier" if he is content with three months holiday in the year, is not likely to have keen appreciation of the dignity
 of labor His ideal insensibly becomes 1t hat of doing as little as he can. of striving to reproduce on his own plane his employers mode of life, and of re- l garding work as an unpalatable inter lruption of the real business of existence,
 Hence the cacanny" policy of Eng .I fish trade unionisnl.

Rice will present at the Hyperion fortnight for the first time in America. was born in 1873 in Chatham, Kent, England. He comes from a theatrical family, being a de- scendant on his mothers side from Ed- mond Kean, who was the uncle of Mir. DarnIey's grandmother.
 Besides being an author and compOs- CT, MT. Darnley is a very clever actor. He has been on the stage since he was four years of age, at which time he played one of the babes in the pantO- mime, Babes in the Woods" at the old Royal theater, Plymouth. He has been on the stage almost continuously since, his only absences being during his schoolboy days.

Alexander Graham appeared on the scene and bought the bird for a dol lar. It was Mr. Graham's intention to Iiberate the bird, but deciding that 1t would be unwise to do so until it was able to fly and take care of itself, took it to the Denver Seed and Flower com pany for safe keeping. Despite all ef- forts in it's behalf, the white robin re- fuse dto eat, and gradually starved to death. MT. Graham will have the bird mounted and presented to the state mu- scum. The other two white robins are owned by Clarence A. Lyman, No. 1902 Race street.-Denver Post.

A white robin. one of three found in this state, and supposed to be the only ones in the world. is dead. The robin was more than four weeks old, and barely able to fiutter along the ground, when it was picked up by Frank schil- Ter, a gardener. The bird had fallen from it's nest and was hopping around the lawn underneath the tree which contained the nest, while it's mother, a perfectly natural red-breasted robin, futtered wildly around it. Schiller had never seen such a thing as white robin and he realized that he had ob- tained a prize which might prove val uabIe to him. As he was exhibiting the terrified bird to a group of boys,

It is the first time this honor has been conferred on an American-indeed until recent times all the Camerieri di numero Ca title which might, perhaps, be best translated as Active Chamberlain) were Italian, and Mr. MacNutt is the third non-Italian to be appointed. Several of the Arch bishops of America petitioned the Holy See to nominate MT. MacNutt for the first vacancy, and the Holy Father was grdciously pleased ogrant their wish.

that of the violet bride of one day."
 whose wedding and divorce were the
 advent of less than fOrty-eight hours,
 and was the topic of the world. This,
 however, is but one of the sensational points of interest in this great play, which presents leson in morality, and at the same time a reflex of humanity.
 Its many types of character are accur- ate and true to nature. and while the play possesses an impressive story, yet ithere is lots of comedy throughout, al-
 so several special vaudeville numbers. In addition to the scenic investiture, there is a wei wrought story, having for its origin the main incidents in the great scandal concerning the violet bride' case, the proceedings of which created most profound stir in society la few years ago. The story recounts
 in a thrilling maner the experiences of a beautiful southern girl in an effort to iextricate herself from an unhappy mar iriage, and introduces a bunch of vio- lets as potent factor in breaking lasunder the uncongenial bonds. Plot land counterplot are involved in bring ing for the elements of strongest pas sions, and when the final curtain falls upon the storm cleared drama the au-
 dience have enjoyed performance of the most spirited kind, and one that
 has offered refreshing relief from the conventional offering.

Tendency of the Times.

The tendency OF medical science is To-
ward preventative measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. 1t is easier and better TO
prevent than to cure. 1t has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one of the
most dangerous diseases that medical
men have to contend with, can be pre-
vented by the use of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always re-
suits from cold or from an attack of
influenza tgripl, and it has been observ-
ed that this remedy counteracts any ten
dency OF these diseases toward pneumon-
ia. This has been fully proven in many
thousands of cases in which this remedy
has been used during the great prevail
ancc of colds and grip in recent years,
and can be relied upon with implicit con-
fidence. Pneumonia often results from a
slight cold when no danger is apprehend-
ed until it is suddenly discovered that
there is fever and difficulty in breathing
and pains in the chest, then IL IS an
nounced that the patient has pneumonia.
Be on the safe side and take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy rs soon as the cold
is contracted. 1t always cures. For
sale by G. c. Stone, drir-ist.
