Among golf resorts about town yesterday many
echoes of the annual meeting of the United states

laughter was contributed by H. j. Whigham The

for the last few years. held the proxy OF the chi
cago Golf Club. Whighams speech was one or
the last of the evening, and his words were TO
the effect that neither he the golfers he knew
at Chicago had felt the tremors that shook South
ern Italy and likewise Washington. AS parting
shot he expressed doubts whether the tremors had
reached any of the larger centres of civilization
In speaking of the championship awards a well
known golfer said that, while 1t might have been
q nice courtesy to the West to give the amateur
championship to Chicago, 1t was certainly nara
luck for Deal to be turned down twice In success

ers were pleased at the Merton selection, and one
local player declared that the entry list would

satisfied with Englewood. In fact, they wanted
to go there year ago.

MAN MONEY.
The Old Teutonic Law on Killing or
Iniurina Others.

The Old Teutonic Law on Killing or
Injurine Others.
The system of atoning for death or
bodily injuries inflicted ON others by
paying damages is as old as the earli-
est Teutonic laws, praised by Tacitus.
The trespasser was always required to
make peace with the aggrieved family
of the victim by "Wer-Geld."
"Wer" is the ancient German for
man. "Geld," now, as in the days OF
Wotan, means money.
Damages were assessed In accord
ance with the rank and wealth Of the
injured party, and the money was
paid over in the presence Of the whole
community, its acceptance forestalling
feuds. Indeed, the recognition Of Wer-
Geld ("money for the man" killed. by
law precluded further bloodshed or
other forms of revenge.
If the slayer was not rich enough to
pay the required sum, he turned over
to the injured parties his sons as
slaves. IL his sons were not sufficient
guarantee for the payment of the
debt, the slayer himself had to turn
bondsman, both the letter and the
spirit of the law requiring that the
full amount of damage inflicted be
recovered by the aggrieved PARTIES
