Dr.. JONES TELLS
OF DALAY'S STATE

DR.. J. E Jones, the American Consul
General at Dainy, and a brother OF
Miss Katydid Jones of Washington. D.
c., who has been visiting with Mrs.
L. Tenney Peck, was a passenger yes,
terday on the Nippon Maru from tho
Far East. Speaking of conditions in
the famous peninsula where Japan and
Russia struggled for the supremacy.
DIR. Jones says:
since my visit to Dalny last July,
the citv shows unmistakabIe evidences
of progress. a large number of the
buildings which We're partially destroy
ed by the retreating Russians when
The city was evacuated, have been ren>
ovated- and within a short time it is
expected the administrative quarters
will be fit for occupation. In the for,
eign settlement a large number of
dwellings, have been temporarily put
up for use of the japanese popular ton.
but these. I am Informed, will be supple
mented within few years by more
substantial structures: in fact, the
owners of these temporary structures
understand that they will have to erect
more permanent buildings when the
city is reorganized
Like all new cities, for Dalny is
practically a new city, there is con-
siderable difficulty in obtaining suit,
able accommodation. The military au>
thorities are utilizing all of the Valu-
a bic buildings that are not occupied
by the Civil Administration, so that a
foreigner going to Dalny must erect a
structure himself if he would De com,
Portable. Rents are very high, and
even ordinary living supplies cost more
than one would suspect at a free port.
but these matters will. of course, rec,
tifv thmselves in a little time
All shipping is largely in the banda
of the Japanese, and a tremendous
quantity of American flour is befna
imported.
The future of Dalny depends large
" upon the outcome of the CONNER
cial Treaty, which is now under dis
cussiop between Russia and Japan. II
Russia will consent TO the linking of
the South Manchurian Railway with
that of the trans-Siberian lines. Dalny
will undoubtedly become a most I'M
portant port 1t has the advantage Of
location and unsurpassed harbor facili>
ties. which added to a first-class rails
road. which it is the purpose of the
japanese to make the South Manchu-
rian, will make it in all respects port
of considerable moment.
Yes, there are a few foreigners in
Dalny. but all business at present is
practically conducted by japanese and
Chinese. The wage scale is high, and
altogether the city may be described
as being in the transition stage

Changes in Middies, Crew.
YOUNG MEN BEATING
THE VETERANS IN GOLF

This is going to be a great season for the
young bloods in "golfdom" The win of
A. L. White Harvard student. at Lake.
wood recently is an indication of what may
be expected quite frequently during the
next four months. If it were not for
Walter J. Travis the old guard would be
compelled to take to the woods altogether
Glance over the list of those who ouaii-
fed In the first sixteen of the Lakewood
open tournaments, and 1t will be seen that
termed youngsters. When the tourney had
narrowed down to the final only O. pair of
college boys were left.
On the other hand. look at the second
division. There we find no less than thir-
teer who would have to accept the sobri-
quet of veteran. Very much the same pro-
portion holds good in the third and fourth
sets.
Now the question which naturally forces
itself upon US is. Why do the young fell
lows crowd the veterans SO roughly in the
race for chief honors? They say golf is
game for all ages; suitable for child or
man ninety years of age. Then why
should the youth of eighteen. with less ex-
perience, defeat the man of forty?
One explanation Is that confidence, so
necessary to success in golf is more fire.
qrentIy found In youth. As the player adj
vances in years he begins to think of all
the bad shots in his last round, or suddenly
discovers that he can't use his mashie
right, some other club He changes
style, tries longer clubs. and by and by
has so many things on his mind when
standing over his ball that there is little
wonder he fuses.
The boy. nine times out often, is ever
improving; he has not got to that stage of
experiments and uncertainty; and then the
youth has probably had better instruction
at the start. 1t is comparatively easy
matter for him to drop INTO a good swing,
while the old chap, who has probably
played base ball in his younger days. Is less
supple and is more apt to develop
cramped style. The old fellow Is fun Of
theories the youngster has no theories;
Just hits the ball-and generally wins.
