HAVE NARROW
ESCAPE FROM DEATH

Special to The Herald
SANTA BARBARA, May 12.-Mrs.
f. B. Moore and Miss Rose A. Burke,
who arrived here Wednesday from
Chicago, had narrow escape from
death while driving over the mountain
drive Thursday morning. They had
gone as far as the banana ranch when
they were startled by great roar COM
ing from the mountain side, and the
air was filled with dust and stones,
some of them striking the horses and
cutting them badly. The frightened
creatures made sudden dash over
the edge of the steep hill side. Their
descent was suddenly stopped by two
small trees which held the carriage,
while the horses fell one upon the
other. The occupants would have
top not held them in. Several people
who were attracted by their cries ar
rived and took them to the camp of
the workmen, where they remained the
rest of the day. They were almost
prostrated from fright.
The mishap was caused by g. dyna-
mite blast from stone quarry. Blast
ing has been going on for several days
in the neighborhood of the banana
ranch, but this is the first instance
where the dynamite has endangered the
lives of those passing over the noun
tain drive.
Last night Mrs. Spelmon horse
whipped J. M. Clipson, painter who
resides at the Spelmon home. The
trouble arose over letter which Clip

A strong opposition is maintained
against the proposed oil pipe line from
the Union OIL company's new oil tank
to and over the commercial wharf.
The Union OF company made applica-
tion several months ago for franz
chise from the city council which was
refused on account Of the many OBJ
jections made against the pipe line. It
was contended that ships in unloading
oil to the pipe line would drop oil upon
the water and ruin the beach for bath

Arthur Duffy, holder Of the worlds
record of 0 S-5 seconds for the one hun
dred-yard dash, returns to his native
land with anything but a poor opinion
Of the ability of the sprintera Of the
antipodes. Duffy is quoted as being
determined to abandon the cinder path
and among other things has the follow
ing to say of his experiences abroad:
Let the colonial English runners
once master the quick start and no
sprinters in the world will have any
thing on them. AS It is now there Is
no question in my mind, and my vic
tories away from home would tend to
show 1t, that the Yankee short distance
men are, as a class, as much superior
to the English as the English distance
runners are superior to the AmN'ican.
"The Australian runners are slow on
the start, but they are devils to finish.
When they once get under way they
are the fastest men in the world, and
they seem to get better and better as
they near the finish. An American go
ing there will get all the action he
wants because the difference in rae
ing and the climatic conditions are
such that it about equalizes the differ
ence in speed.
For instance, take grass running
That is a new game for Americans and
many of the English and colonial races
are held on turf tracks. Grass running
for man unused to it is no joke until
he has had long practice at 1t. A Yam
kee sprinter who is sure of even time
every time he starts in the 1OO-yard
dash on the cinders is lucky If he does
10 1-5 in his first race on the grass.
Then there is the manner of starting
races, some of which are decidedly
novel, not to say queer. One place in
New Zealand they lined us up to a
barrier. When the tape was raised
you were at liberty to start, and there
was no preliminary indication of the
contrivance being ready to be sprung"

nnd It impossible to get along until

Of the remarkable changes that have
been brought about within a compara-
lively few years in our national habits
in connection with athletics. 1t is the
universal won't Of humanity to pine
in strange surroundings for the things

letio sports among the things so longed
for. The descriptions Of the American

By Associated Press.

CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-H. Chandler
Egan successfully defended his title of
national golf champion in the eleventh
annual tournament at the Chicago Golf
clubs links today at Wheaton, defeat
ing D. e. Sawyer of Wheaton up 5
to play in the finals. The Exmopr
player, who has thrice in four years
taken the measure of all western as
pirants for the Western Golf associa-
ton title, added his second victory in
the United States and the G. A. Have
myer cup to his great performances.
Sawyer often was brilliant in his play
in the heart-breaking struggle with the
champion, but he was weak at vital
times on the putting green. Champion
Egan was steady at all times with his
club, although often getting discourag-
ing lies by his terrific tee shots in the
morning round. In the afternoon he
divided some of his trouble by using a
cleek at the narrow places in the course.
AS in the history of golf from the be-
ginning of the game the championship
was won and lost on the putting green.
Egan invariably was down in the regu-
lation two puts when he got to the
green. Sawyer missed several oppor-
tunities to get holes simply by falling
down on points.
