RULES FOR GOLF
MAY BE CHANGED

II has been suggested by a number Of
the leading golf players Of the Whining
ton Country Club that hereafter a new
method OF determining the golf champion
ship Of the club be adopted which. It is
believed VIII prove satisfactory to ALL
The plan suggested is that each of the
first sixteen who qualify ON a thlrty-six
hole course shall play an individual match
with everyone of tho other contestants
over an eighteen-hole course instead of
playing in brackets as Is now the GUS
tom. IL is believed that by adopting this
method Of play that each contestant win
be given an equal chance with another
which IL is claimed is not now the case.

CONFIRMED PROOF
Residents of Wilmington Cannot Doubt
What Has Been Twice Proved.

In gratitude for complete relief from
aches and pains of bad backs-from
distressing kidney ills-thousands have
publicly recommended Doan's Kidney
Pills. Residents of Wilmington, who
so testified years ago. now say their
cures We're permanent This testimony
doubly proves the worth of Doan's
Kidney Pills to Wilmington kidney
sufferers.
Mrs Marie Walker 1923 Church
street, Wilmington, Del, says: Doan's
Kidney Pills cured my husband. Will
liam $. Walker, of kidney complaint
and backache in 1897 from which he
had suffered for years and had tried
all kinds of remedies, but none of them
helped him. At times the pains in his
back We're so severe that he could not
get about I have known him TO be
laid up ten days at a time Every
little cold or over eNertion settled in
his kidneys and then he was back in
bed again. In 1897, he took Doan's
Kidney Pills, getting a box at n b.
Danforth's drug store. The first box
gave him so much relief that he con-
tinued their use, taking IN all about
six boxes when his trouble had dis
appeared entirely, and the best part
OF IL is, that it never came back He
made a statement for publication in
1897 in which he set forth these facts.
and he confirmed same I'm 1904. also
stating that the good effects of Doan's
Kidney Pills had not worn of. and
today, April %. 1907, we take pleasure
In reitorating all we said in our two
former statements. and add to it, that

CITY HAS 10000 IT
HADLOST TRACK OF
Assistant Treasurer Griffen-
berg Discovers Seventeen
YeaT-O.d Deposit
TO AUDIT THE FINANCES

Tucked away in Union National Bank
is $4,000 which the city of Whining
ton didn't know it had. The money mas
been there for seventeen years, and has
grown into a valuable asset for the
city during all the years it was lost
sight of.
When the money, which accrued from
the sale of some city lots, was deposit
ed in bank seventeen years ago it was
S4,454. Interest has accumulated until
the amount is now $4,000.
How much more city money that
may be in banks and has been lost
sight of is not known, but an ordi-
nance was introduced in Council last
night providing for a searching audit
by experts to discover the exact hnan-
cial standing of the city.
The subject came before Council in
the following communication from City
Treasurer Ross, giving his assistant,
e. b. Grinenberg, credit for discover
ing the lost account:
Treasurer Ross's Letter.
Wilmington, Del, Aug. z, 1907.
To the President and Members of the
Council of Wilmington:
Gentlemen: In an effort to recon-
cile some of the accounts in this Office
during the past week my accountant,
Mr.. Griffenberg, located an unexpended
balance of S4,45462 in Union National
Bank in a Special Fund, Sale of Lots"
which balance has been completely lost
sight of for over 16 years. This amount
with accrued interest at 2 per cent.
would now amount to over $4,000. beg
leave TO submit the following informa-
tion in relation to the original trans
action:
ION June %. 1890, Mr., B. f. Town
send reported having disposed of GER
tain lots at Eighth and DUPONT streets
belonging to the city for S14.S66.11,
less commission and expenses of
S2016.49, netting the city S12,S49.62. OF
this amount $4,000 was received in cash
at the time of sale and was deposited
with the City Treasurer, who in turn
deposited the amount to the Special
Fund. Sale of Lots" on July 8, 1890.
The balance of the proceeds from the
sale of the lots, S7,S49.62, was received
by the City Treasurer on September a.
1880 and was deposited on September
TO- 1880 to the special fund" on
March &c, 1891 an order was drawn in
favor of the Sinking Fund Commits
sioners for the redemption of sinking
fund bonds due and payable April J.
1891, amounting to SS.395.OO and was
charged to the special fund" on
May 25, 1891 this amount was with
drawn from the special fund" leav-
ing a balance in the fund of $4,454.62
which balance was completely lost sight
of in the accounts of the city from
that date to this. Interest was allowed
the city monthly on the special fund
up to July 81, 1891 and was paid tc
the City Treasurer by the bank
In view of the above oversight
would respectfully recommend and
urge that the City Council have a com
plete audit made OF the books in this
Office and that a proper system of ac-
counting and auditing be installed that
will fully meet the present require
ments of the city.
Very respectfully,
