Dr.. Harlan Is Nosed Out by
Brooks in First Game-Co-
Iumbia's Players All on
the Job and Have Nice
Picking.

The Columbia Golf Club five-man team
won from the Bannockburn Golf Club on
the links of the former organization out
Brightwood way yesterday afternoon In a
club match for the challenge trophy OF
the South Atlantic Golf Association. The
score was to I, Brooks of Bannockburn
nosing out DR.. Lee L. Harlan of Column
bia in 10 holes by 1 up.
1t was great match, with the Columbia
player up on his game and the Bannock-
burn golfer fighting every inch of the
way. With the score even on the nine
teenth green, the representative of Ban
nockburn carried off the victory and saved
his team from a shut-out.
A. s. Mattingly, the second man on the
Columbia team. won handily from {. c.
Van Leer. The score was up and 1 to
play. Both of the players are old golfers.
but Mattingly has been beating a lot OF
good golfers in his matches during the
past few years. and Van Leer did not
seriously interfere with his intentions yes
terday of landing at least one match IN
the Columbia column. Columbia expected
it, too, for the Brightwood folk always
know that when A. S. M. starts out
over the course he is out for game, and
he has the reputation of coming back
with it upon every occasion. He Is one
of those players who COLTS every minute
over the course and the .end Is Always
in doubt If his opponent is in the lead.
Billy Knowles came over to Columbia
yesterday with the rest of the Bannock-
burn aggregation. Billy always has the
cup in his pocket. SO he will tell q friend
confidentialy before the match. Gener-
ally gets left. His friends always re-
member how he did some things out
Chevy Chase way not SO very long ago
in a prize winning class. and yesterday
they expected Billy to loom up strong
and simply run away from John c. David
son, who has played golf long and earnest
ly. And then when thematch was over
1t was over early-Mr Davidson was the
winner by up and to go.
T. B. Eynon defeated H. F. Clark OF
Bannockburn by 8 up and to go-the
same score as in the match between
Messrs. Davidson and knowles.
The closing match took place between
M. E. Danforth, representing Columbia.
and T. ]. w. Brown of Bannockburn.
The Columbia man won. No score was
given at the close.

COAL BUSINESS BAD.
So Emmett Heidrick Decides to Pick
Up Some Easy Money.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, August 22.-Emmett Held
rick, star outfielder, quit the st. Louis
Browns of the American League three
years ago to go into the coal business
with his father down in Pennsylvania.
The Browns made him many tempting
offers to get back into the game, but
Emmett was too busy helping pop make
money.
But the recent commercial depression
must have hit the coal business in Penn
sylvania. for Heidrick is again earning
money as ball player.
It is reported that Manager Jimmy Nc
Aleer has contracted to pay Heidrick a
5000 salary for the seven weeks of the
season now remaining. AS the Browns
are having nip and tuck race with the
Detroit Tigers for the pennant. and as the
pennant would mean tens of thousands Of
dollars to the st. Louis owners, the story
is not so unlikely.
