Stowell conceived the idea Of para
chuting his balloon and allowing 1t

Big GAME OF GOLF.
President Taft Will Be Paired With
Champion Travis.

Washington, May 11.-President Taft to-
morrow will play the most notable game
of golf in his career up to this time, when
paired with Walter J. Travis, the former
national champion, he viii engage in a
foursome against General Clarence Ed
wards, chief of the insular bureau of the
war department and F. Oden Horstmann,
one of the cracks of the Chevy Chase club
in this city.
Travis is here to take part in the open
tournament of the Chevy Chase club
Last winter he called upon Mr.. Taft in
New York and spent almost an entire
afternoon with him giving his distin-
guished host a long dissertation on the
ancient and honorable game and how it
should be played. 1t was on the occasion
of this visit that Mr.. Taft made his
famous remark that he had imbibed as
much golf from Travis as a humble
puppy might be expected to absorb from
an expert.
The game tomorrow will be for blood"
and the intimation sometimes heard that
General Edwards has not yet put his best
game forward against the president will
vanish when the distinguished quartette
tee off tomorrow afternoon. The presi-
dent has not played for more than two
weeks however and may be a little stale.
The net score of the Taft-Travis team is
likely to be a low one.
