ney at the Chevy Chase Club. played yes
terday afternoon, resulted as folldws:
Miss Oliver beat Mrs. Frailey, six UP and
four to play.
Mrs McCammon beat Mrs. Gaff. tW 10 up

took % strokes. Their cards were:
Out. ............ 5 4 4 8 al
Mrs. Gaf-
fn nut. ..':.... s . II s-5l-ss
As the women's boyle for the course Is
80 1t can easily be seen that both con-
testants were on the top Of their strokes
many of the holes being done in par or
even better.
The result of yesterdays play throws
Mrs McCammon and Miss Oliver together
for the finals which will be played late
this afternoon. AS both players have

score better than 95 by the Goth of this
month. The prize for this competition

Mr.. Spaldng, 1t is well known. favors
the theory that the national game had its
origin In the old colonial game of one-old-
cat. He says: "One-old-cat was played
by three boys-a thrower, a catcher and
a batsman, The latter after striking the
ball, ran to a goal about thirty feet dis
tant, and by returning to the batsman' 3
position without being put out counted
one run, or tally. Two old cat was played
by four or more boys with two batsmen
about forty feet apart. Three-old-cat was
played by six or more boys with three
batsmen. the ground being laid out I'm the
/ shape Of a triangle. Four-old-cat was
played by eight or more boys. with grounds
laid out in the shape of a square Four
old-cat required four throwers alternating
as catchers and four batsmen, the hall
being passed from one corner to the next
around the square field. Individual scores
or tallies were credited to the batsman
making the hit and running from one cor
ner TO the next Some ingenious American
lad naturally suggested that one thrower
| be placed in the center Of the square.

Depression due 10 dog days seems TO have
struck the RourlSe family; at any rate the
performance of the last week was not just
what its admirers had been looking for.
And II WAS such a reversal OF form, too.
After the gallant struggle with Des Moines'
when that series of ten sensationa; games
with the leaders ended in a tie and the
easy way In which the Champions took the
measure OF the 81. Joe team. it was thought
that a winning squirt was coming. When
Bill schriver showed up here with his Pu-
eblo bunch and won three out of four, the
home hearts were all but broken, and losing
three out of Ave to Denver looked just about
as bad. Papa Bill gathered The boys to-
gether on Thursday morning CD6 what no

the game that afternoon looked like his
words had gone home. IL Is to be hoped
they did for the young men who are wear
ing the Omaha uniform are capable OF
much better things than they did while
playing with Denver and Pueblo. At least
four OF the games lost to these invaders
from the mountains went that way because
the Omahaogs played careless, dopey ball,
and not the bright. snappy article they
generally put up. Fans don't like 70 see
the home team lose, but they do get sore
when Il looks like the loss was due to in
against a hard proposition all week. for
both Pueblo and Denver ground out base
ball OF the highest type, but even at that
the home team should have won II 1t had
done what It is capable of doing. Now that
Papa Bill has scolded them, and they have
given evidence of reform-particularly by
getting out for morning practice, differ

the rag over at Des Moines next season,

something TO say about this, and it may

KANSAS HOLDS A
BIC REFORM RALLY

Ottawa, Kan, Is to be the scene Of a
noteworthy popular demonstration in
the interest of that spirit Of reform
which manifested itself when the Kan
sas legislature last winter passed a
bill to establish a state oil refinery
to break the monopoly in Kansas of
the Standard OIL company, says a spe
ctal dispatch from Ottawa to the New
York World. Arrangements have been
made for Governor La Toilette of Wis
consin, William Travers Jerome Of
New York, Thomas w. Lawson of Bos-
ton, Clarence S. Darrow of Chicago
and Joseph W. Folk of Missouri to
be present and address the people Of
the west.
To know the full significance Of this
coming of Folk and the others to Kan
sas would be to have felt the growth
Of that remarkable sentiment which
surged upon the Kansas legislature
last winter. In the face of constitu-
honal questions, the influence of pow
erful lobbyists and an open threat Of
misfortunes to come from the coun-
Gys greatest monopoly, this sentiment
put through a series Of ant-Standard
o0 and antirailroad measures.

doctor. We did not ask them or urge
them to use large number of bottles, as
is the case in the advertising of many
other remedies. Our confidence in Ger

THE PREACHER.

We have heard a good deal of criti-
cism within the past few months
directed at the preacher.
He took vacation, something the
devil would never think of doing.
He raised his voice in protest
against moral wrongs in the affairs
of state-anOther thing the devil
would never think of doing.
These and other things. Well
Preachers cannot escape criticism.
They probably do not expect to es-
cape. But
Did you ever try to put yourself in
your pastors place? We are talk
ing now of the pastor of a city church
with large membership.
DO you think two sermons week,
however good they may be, is his on
ly stunt? Do you realize that he is
at the beck and call of lot of peo-
pie day and night?
His church is made up of all kinds
OF persons. 1t requires the tact and
ability of general to fuse them all
into one spirit. There is more or
less friction. There are misunder-
standings and prejudices and ieaI-
Ousies and back billings. The church
militant is not composed entirely of
saints. The pastor who holds his
place year after year must have ex-
ecutive ability of a high order, and
many sleepless nights are his portion
He must visit the sick, bury the
dead, comfort the bereaved, encour-
age the respondent, lift up the fallen,
keep an eye on the choir, elders, dea-
cons and ushers. 70 hundreds he
must be guide, philosopher and
friend.
Moreover, he must keep In touch
with things. He must he up to date
in every particular. An old fogy
preacher in a city pulpit will last
about as long as dish of ice cream
exposed to the July sun. Where he
