Business Men.

The board of directors of the Young
Mems Christian association announces
that the $4,000 debt against the asso-
citation has been finally cancelled and
that the mortgage and other notes are
now in its possession.
When the pledges received last fall
were listed it was found that some
thing like $1,000 was not payable until
well along in the year or until Jan.
l, 1906. An arrangement was devils
ed by the committee. whereby the
money was secured, the last amount
having been received this morning
and paid on the debt, thus wiping out
the entire sum of $4,000.
Notes Are Assigned.
OF the notes that were given the
association that are not yet due the
Rock Island National band took 1925

the notes we're taken from the asso-
citation by ten business men of the
city who are interested in the work
These notes are in the possession of
Z. B. McKown who will act as trus
tee and collect them. The signers of
these notes will be notified shortly
that they make settlement TO him
when the notes become due.
Jubilee on Anniversary.
Now that the debt is cancelled the
association can celebrate its 21st an
niversary on April 20 and burn the

TO make the event a notable one for |
the association and its friends.

SPRING TERM AT BROWNS
To Begin April 4-SchooI to Be in ses-
sian All Summer.

The spring term of school at Browns
Business college will begin Tuesday
April 4. Arrangements have been made
to carry on the school work all sum
mer. so that students who enroll for
the spring term will be able to pursue
their studies without interruption. The
management expects a large enrolment
at this time, as many persons have
written asking whether it would be
necessary TO lose the summer months.
The fact that school is to be conduct
ed throughout the summer will make
1t possible for those who enroll now to
prepare for business positions by next
falfs busy season. Ii speaks well for
the industry OF Rock Island boys and
girls that they are unwilling to neglect
school in the good old summer time
the best time Of all the year.

Million Golfers in This Country.

The list given could be somewhat extend
ed, but interest in the different sections OF
the country has been sufficiently shown to
demonstrate that golf is enjoying prestige
never before known and little realized by
the casual observer Of conditions. Recently
when the Boston Globe announced that
there were 100000 golfers in the United
States the estimate was considered ex-
cessive, burt a careful compilation would
show the figures not to be far out of the
way.
AS to the character of golf players that
this country Is producing, expert opinion
can be obtained from John l.. Low, VINO
captained the Oxford-Cambridge team when
1t visited this country. Mr.. Low, In an ar
ticle in the Pail Mall Gazette on golf as
played in America, writes:
After the handsome win OF MT. Travis
at Sandwich in the amateur championship.
the public took different view of Amer
lean golf and OF the play of the Americans
here. Personally. my opinions were formed
and expressed before these events ana have
not since required revision.
what is important is the proved exist
ence of that new school of Amer can gof-
ers and their ability to wrest The champion
ship from a player good enough to win our
own chief amateur prize. Mr.. Travis is
much more easily measured than this
young, almost undeveloped school which
will succeed him, gathering up much from
his lesson and adding to 1t something yet

LOST A SEE-SAW GAME
George Washington Univer-
sity Defeated at Annapolis.
Special Dispatch to The Sunday Star.


ANNAPOLIS, Nd, March 25.-The first
scheduled game of the George Washington
University base ball team was played at
Annapolis with the Naval Academy team,
this afternoon. The two teams played a
fast snappy game that was closely con-
tested from start to finish and was drawn
out into ten innings. George Washington
came to Annapolis with the intention of
wiping out the record of her inglorious de-
feat at the hands of the middies last year
and gave an exhibition of playing that made
the outcome doubtful question until the
close of the tenth inning.
A crowd of one hundred rioters came
with the team from Washington and
cheered themselves hoarse in their appro-
baton of the excellent playing Of their
team.
The new members of the George Washing
ton team gave a good account of themselves.
An especially good find is Weber. who play
ed first base an dentered the season with a
two-base hit and two singles to his credit.
He is from Ohio State University, where
he was captain of the varsity during his
last year at the school.
Bielaski, at shortstop, played an excel
lent game, and Orison. at third, was fast
and sure. Captain Stevenson, at second,
played an errorless game He is hitting
the ball again this year. Stevenson led the
batting list on the team last year No
changes were made in, the lineup, and HoI-
land, in the box, finished the game in good
form and allowed only six hits.
For the Navy, GILL; McWharton and Need
ham played fast ball. Field, behind the
bat was able to keep many of Washington 8
men from stealing second base.
In the third inning the Navy scored the
first run of the game, and in the fourth
inning, with two men out. Stevenson came
to bat for Washington and made glad the
hearts of his men by landing clean two
Dagger into left field. Bielaski repeated
the act, scoring Stevenson, and was In turn
scored with safe hit by Weber. Burkett
struck out, retiring the side.

The north and south championship golf
