GOLF CAME FROM HOLLAND.

England did not borrow golf originally
from France. but from Holland, whence
the Scots used to buy balls, if not clubs,
till n crushing duty was placed on Dutch
golf balls. Indeed, there is abundant evil
.dence, including that of Froissart, to
prove that the Scots got everything from
Holland ready-made in exchange for raw
materials, writes Andrew Lang in the
Illustrated London New
What these materials were / cannot
conceive. To export picked fish to Hol-
land was indeed to send owls to Athens,
and as for our woods, their expectation
was usually prohibited. Dairy farmers
who sent eggs out of the country were
denounced by the Privy Council as desti-
tute OF all human civility.
However 1t was managed, we got golf
balls from Holland and adopted the Flem-
ish Invention of the hole. This was the
most brilliant invention Of the Batavian
genius.
All continental people played at an iron
hoop or at a fixed object like the pin in
roquet. but an Illuminated almanac OF
about 1900 shows that In the low countries
players already putted at holes.
The oti:er kind of game, driving with
hammerheaded clubs and lofting through
IN iron ring instead OF putting at the hole.
reached England from France in the six
teenth century, but died out after the
revolution of 1888. 1t is still played in the
neighborhood of Montpelier. and in a
rude fashion, with a queer iron-headed
club. in the north of france.

LOST OR STRAYED:
CHAUFFEUR AND AUTO
Herman G. Hoskier, of South Orange,
Reports Absence of Friends
Driver to the Police.

ooh, where, oh, where, is our wander
ing chauffeur tonight?" sang Herman c.
Hoskier, president Of the Orange Lawn
Tennis Club. and a party of autoists In
South Orange last night as they waited
for a chauffeur employed by a friend to
return. He didn't show up, and up to this
afternoon they didn't know whether he
was lost. strayed or stolen.
The chauffeur left the Hoskier house, In
Ridgewood road, South Orange, about 5
O'Clock yesterday afternoon, and was to
have gone to Newfoundland, this State,
today, where his employer, j. C.. Cross,
a friend Of Mr.. Hoskier's, resides. He
was to have taken with him several arti-
cles from the Hoskier home. The man,
Louis HILBERT, complained of feeling Ill
to Mr.. Hoskier yesterday morning and
went for a spin to clear his head When
he did not return Mr.. Hoskier called up
the South Orange police station and re-
ported the man as missing, and said he
believed that the mar was taken i'll along
the road. The police nave no trace of him
as yet.
He is described as a short, thick-set
man, about % years old. The machine
was a Packard touring car, and belonged
to Cross.
It is thought. perhaps, that the chauf-
feur went to his employers home in
Newfoundland Neither Mr.. Cross NOS Mr..
Hoskier has communicated with the other
as yet.

UP TO THE PEOPLE
FOR SMALL SCHOOL BOARD
IN ORANGE.
Council Will Have That Matter and
Police Pension Fund Voted on
at Coming Election.

Expressing in concrete form the strong
protests against another year Of govern
ment Of the Orange public schools sue as
tn present one, Majority Leader Edward s.
Perry introduced a resolution at last
nights meeting of the Orange Common
Council, which passed unanimously, that
the public be given an opportunity to vote
for q smaller Board of Education under
the act passed in 1903. Mr.. Perry, in pre-
senting the measure, was asked for a
statement, and he remarked drily he
did not think the matter needed any argu-
ment before the Council.
Citizens of the city nave been asking
what could be done to do away with the
present arrangement, Mr.. Perry said, and
had beer crying against a continuance
of the intolerable conditions. The Council
also decided to submit the act providing
police pensions to the voters. The county
clerk will place both measures or the
ballots.
Following up the declaration in the Re
publican city platform against the nickle-
dromes In the city, Chairman Charles w.
Romine offered a resolution that was re,
ferred to the license committee, and Will
be taken up next month, providing a pen
atty of $40 for proprietors of amusement
places who allow children under IA years
of age, unaccompanied by adults, to at
tend performances.
Notification was given the Council by the
STATE Sewerage Commission to stop. pol
luton of the east branch of the Railway
River before December 1. Councilman
Hoffman sought a special appropriation to
clean a section of the brook, known as the
river, between Joyce and Freeman streets
and Christopher street, but, as there was
question as to where the appropriation was
to come from. the matter was referred to
City Counsel Lord. The Board of Health
wants the work done, West Orange to
share the expense, as the brook is a divid-
ing line. Bids for a sewer aume from
Chestnut street to West Christopher street
in the brook were rejected.
There was an echo of the recent agitation
for a municipal lighting plant in Orange
when James M. Seymour. jr., of this city,
put in a bill for $500 for services. He
was employed by the city as expert in the
plans for the proposed municipal lighting
arrangement.
Chairman Cheetham of the street COM
mittee put in ordinances for improving
Maryland, Monroe and Joyce streets and
New Essex avenue. The Council accepted
$3.50 for back taxes from 1894 to 1906 on
City Physician Herbert P. Gerbert's prop
erty in Argyle avenue. The assessment
upon the property had been a little higher
than usual, and the city got certain privi-
leges. in the property. A quit claim deed
for the right of way in the Marcus Sayre
property, South Orange, was authorized.

TO FORCE THE ISSUE
MONTCLAIR SCHOOL DEAD
LOCK MAY BE ENDED.
Meeting of Prominent Citizens, Who
Favor Big Central School, Called
for Thursday Night.

Decatur NJ. Sawyer and others of Mont
clair have sent out invitations to about SW
representative citizens of that town to
meet Thursday evening in Unity Hail.
South Fullerton avenue, Montclair, for the
purpose of putting an end to the pro-
tracted deadlock between the Montclair
Town Council and the Board of Educa-
ton over the erection OF the proposed
Central Grammar School building. The
Invitations were sent only to those tax
payers who are known to favor a progress
sive educational policy.
The Board of Education wants to erect
a building which would be ar ornament
to. the town and procured a site at the
corner of Hillside avenue and Orange
road. adjoining the High School grounds.
at a cost of $50, 900. An appropriation of
s216. 600 was asked for to erect the build
ing, and $20,000 for the ground. This
amount the Board of Estimate refused to
grant, but recommended 10 the Council
that an appropriation of 1880 be made
for the erection of the building and $4,000
to purchase the ground. This recon-
.mendation was accompanied by a proviso,
that the plans for the building already
procured by the Board of Education from
MeKim, Mead & White, of New York,
be abandoned and new plans for a build
ing that would come within the a%ppropria-
tion of $175,000 be procured by the Board
of Education, and be submitted to the
Council before the appropriation would be
made.
The School Board refused to get new
plans, and hence the deadlock.
Charles Haftshorne. of Montclair, was
secured as special counsel by the Board of
Education to appeal to the courts for a de-
cision regarding the Councils Jurisdiction
in the matter of appropriations, which he
has done. The decision, when received,
would put an end to the deadlock, but the
citizens who have called the meeting for
next Thursday night, it is said, want to
bring pressure on the Council to make the
large appropriation asked for.
The Mayor and Council during. the past
two or three months have given the Scnool
Board large SUNS of money for new build
and additions in the outlying districts.
altogether, to nearly $200,0 o0, and
Crawford said today that the Coun-
ell was prepared to vote the appropriation
of S175, 900 and $4,000 for the ground as soon
as the Board of Education submitted plans
OF a twenty-room building that can be
erected for that sum. The Mayor also re-
ferred to other municipalities where
twenty-room buildings were being erected
at a much less cost.

POINTERS FOR CHICAGO.
The City Needs Great Awakening of
Civic Consciousness.

One cannot imagine New York or
London or Paris or Berlin or any of
the old and established cities gloating
in such wise over increase of popula-
ton. Such knowledge brings to them
increase of sorrow, for they realize the
responsibility that it means, says the
Indianapolis News. The differences in
the cases show that Chicago is really
not yet a city-only the raw material
of a city. For all it's bulk and sprawl
ing aggregation it is a country town,
rioting in the increase of opportunity.
A city, normally, is a centre of civiliza-
ton. 1t generates and makes possible
the forces of civilization that without
1t are not possible. From the begin
ming the influences that have shaped
the history of mankind have come from
cities. Has anything of this kind come
out of Chicago? Laying aside it's COM
mercial power, which is prodigious, we
doubt if any of the finer influences
have radiated from Chicago that make
cities q b~eneficence, that constitute
them centres of civilization whose ex-
ample lifts up the region round about
and helps forward the age. We, are
not ~lecturing Chicago, nor are we
bringing against it railing accusation.
We know of the good men and women
there, t~ireless in their duty, and of the
living forces that work to make head
against evil conditions. But they have
not done enough and are hardly more
than voices crying in the wilderness.
Chicago needs a great awakening of
civic conscience and civic virtue If it is
ever to become not simply a big but
a great city.
