Golf Tournament Ends.

The ninth annual tournament for the
Taeonic and Ondawa Cups was brought
to a close on the Ekwanok links Satur-
day. The chief trophy was won by
Frederick Herreshoff, Garden City,
who defeated Edward W. Clark, Sd,
Philadelphia Country Club, in the final
thirty-six hole match by the score of Z
up and 6 to play. Mr.. Herreshoif cap
tured the low score prize in the quail
flying round Thursday. Saturday
morning in the rain he seemed TO play
rather Indifferent game at times, and
the Vermont champion had him | down
when the pair retired for tfSch. In the
afternoon the former runner-up in the
national championship gave a pretty
exhibition of golf, and in spite of the
heavy course played pargolf going out,
registering 81. This was done after
breaking his mashie on the seventh,
which lost him a stroke and the hole.
His brilliant game had won him the
first six holes. After losing the seventh
and halying the eighth he won the
ninth, which put him five holss in the
lead. he also won the tenth, and after
the next hole had been halyed the Phil
adelphia golfer drove into the bunker
on the twelfth, which lost him the hole
and match. Their cards follow:

Famous New England Story on the Stage
About five years ago, Quincy Adams
Sawyer, a story of New England life,
by Charles FELTON, Pedgin, made its ap-
pearance in attractive book form. Di-
rectly it achieved enormous popularity.
Everybody was reading it and talking
about it, The sales continued for a
year with no abatement, About that
time the parties concerned in the book
saw in the story all the elements of a
successful plap. To be sure, it lacked
william, a ruined girl, lost will, a
mortgage, and cruel uncle. but it con-
tanned plenty of types Of people all dis
tinct and natural. And SO the drama
tizaton was made.
If the book was successful the play
was doubly so Houses crowded to the
doors marked its every appearance.
"The very best New England play ever
seen" was the universal verdict.
The play closely followed the book.
No attempt was made to enlarge on
the plot Quincy Adams Sawyer is
a wealthy young Boston lawyer who
goes into the country for his health.
He meets blind girl whose love he
wins. Their courtship is the main
theme of the play, but it is not on any
one feature of the drama that interest
centers. for as far as love-making goes
there are six full-fedged love stories in
progress all the time. 1t is the realis-
tic portrayal of character and scene
that has won the play its distinction.
The world loves anything genuine.
1t is the jolliest play ever written.
The comedy scenes are strong and many
and the tender seriousness of the SEN
timental portions being only sweet con-
tent and satisfaction unmixed with re-
gret or sadness.
This play will appear at the opera
house Wednesday evening, March 25.

BA1TLESHiP FLEET
never IOBESEPARATED

1.-THE American Battleship Fleet
will never be separated" was the
statement made by Former Secretary
of the Navy Victor II. Metcalf, who
reached Oakland from Washington.
accompanied by Mrs. Metcalf. The
former Cabinet officer paused signifi-
cantly after the remark. Speaking
of the diplomatic effect of the voyage
of the Fleet from the Atlantic to the
Pacific ocean. Metcalf said:
Aside from the great value Of the
cruise from a practical standpoint,
the advantages gained automatically
are inestlmable. The presence of the
Fleet In South American and Austria
Han waters did more to bring the
United States and the countries Wis
tied into diplomatic accord than a
hundred years Of diplomacy. After
being royalty welcomed by the South
American republics, Australia outdid
itself In theymqtter of generous treat
ment. Subsequently the japanese
distinguished themselves by their
hospitality and courtesy, doing much
to remove any feeling that the pub
lie might have in either country and
bringing the two nations into greater
unison than they had been for many
months past. "-Chronlcle.

THE MAYORALTY CONTEST.

Thanks to a brilliant judge who
discovered a point for them, the DEM
ocrats have succeeded in securing a
decision from the Supreme Court Of
the Territory which will prevent a
recount of the vote for Mayor of this
city.
The Democrats are to be congratu-
lated in their good fortune. 1t would
have been much better for all con-
cerned II the points originally in dis
pute could have been carried to a
conclusive decision on their merits,
and the ballot recounted.
The error of the Republicans was
in hustling through an election CON
test at the last minute and in such a
hasty manner that they were neither
well prepared nor particularly sure
of their ground.
II is a great misfortune that the
decision OF the Court seems to shut
of all possibility Of the people know
ing whether the Irregularities charg-
Cd are 'trus,;and whether Mayor Fern
was counted in by improper methods
