MILLIONS FOR GOLF
Wonderful Growth Of the Ancient
Game in ersst Britain.

The present year has seen a record
boom in golf, and several Millions ster.
/ ling have been spent on the pursuit Of
this most fascinating game, says a
cable from London to the Philadelphia
Ledger.
Throughout the summer lt was al
most impossible to keep pace with the
number of new golf clubs that were
Iopened every day On an average the
number of new clubs opened during
the months of June. July and August
was seven a week, while the average
| for the last 10 months has been four a
week
This means that the last year has
seen the opening of more than 200 new
golf clubs, and as on the average each
club claims at least 100 acres, 10000
acres have been taken up since Novem-
Der last for the purpose of making
links.
To give some idea Of the sums that
are spent on golf it may be mentioned
that it has Just been decided to lay
out e6.GO0 in obtaining land for a new
golf course at North Berwick. During
the past year, too, 100000 has been
lspent by the footing Bee Club and
e12,0OO by the Bournemouth Corpora
Ition, while sums ranging from $500
Ito $4,000 have been expended in
lscOres Of cases
The latest and one of the most ambi-
ltious schemes is to acquire links just
'outside the north of London at an eX-
Denditure of 10000.
It is estimated that the golf players
of the United Kingdom now number
100000. of whom 10000 players are
residents in London, and find their
recreation on links close to town.
On this basis lt is not very difficult
to calculate the amount Of money
which IS now spent annually on the
pursuit Of the little white ball.
Taking e1O a year as the minimum
Expenditure of each player, on sub
lscriptions, railway fares and caddiC
fees, one Immediately arrives at tho
colossal sum of e3,500000. This. how
ever, is probably a very much underes
timated amount, as most players nova
days belong to three or four clubs
while enthusiasts can claim member
ship with five or six.
This e3.50O,000, however, represents
only a fraction Of the money spent by
golfers. A very fair estimate of the ex
lpense in the matter of balls is 5s. &
week per player. Some men, of course
who use the cheaper kind of balls ant
do not play more than once or twice Z
week may not spend more than 2s. OF
3s a week. On the other hand, man!
men spend los or 12s. a week. This
implies that the nations golf bill
amounts annually to e700O,OOO
BY degrees golf clubs, as they pros
per, are putting up commodious an,
handsome buildings, where ample ac
lcommodation is provided for persons
who desire to sleep the night there.
} This is regarded by many interested
in such institutions as the thin end o
the wedge of the American "countr!
lclub" idea This is to say, the club
house in the country, where the jadel
jewellers in cities can recuperate a
the weekend, golf being the chief rec
reatiOn and attraction.
There is practically not case a
the present time of gof club In diff
! culties. Various trades may call on
, about the stress of hard times, bu
the finance of all that appertains Il
} golf has never been in such flourish
: ing condition.

walker County Man Who Fled After Murder of His Wife is Suspect cd and the Community

A reward of S150 was yesterday of fered by Acting Governor Cunningham for the capture of Marion Ernest Of Drifton, Walker County, white man, charged with the murder of his wife, and pictured by certain officials of that county as 8 particularly dangerous character.
 The terms of the reward require Ernest's arrest and delivery to the sherift of Walker County and hts con- yiction.
 Reports of the shooting of Mrs. Ern- est Jan. go dlffer. She was found dead on that date at her home. bullet hav- ing penetrated her brain. One theory of the case Is that the murder was i'm tentlonally committed by her husband who has fled to confirm 1t.
 Another hypothesis. one put forth chiefly by Ernest's closest friends, IS that he shot his wife accidentally ana the tragedy was so startling that he fled, haunted with the idea that the cir cumstances might convict him.
 Most officials of Walker County have no other belief than that the 49fair was one of cold -blooded murder One of them. in recommending State reward for Ernest's arrest, writes the Govern or: He is a dangerous man and ev- erybody living in his community seems to be afraid of him and acknowledges that he is afraid to attempt Ernests arrest"
 The community of Drifton is greatly agitated over the killing. The alleged murderer is said to be in hiding in the woods near the scene of the shoot- ing.
