the Albuquerque way. In fact, thai
sentiment IL about as far removed
from the spirit which has made Albu-
anerquc the queen city Of the sonth-
west, as 1t would be possible to I'M
nglno. The spirit that attempts to
accomplish something only when con
dltiops everywhere are so suspicious
that tho same thing might be accom-
pliAhed BY any village OF hnmlot In the
country. IL not the spirit that moves
the world or builds cities. The eNi.
dcnccs Of grit, courage, progress ana
public spirit are brought to the front
BY those communities which take hold
and do things IN the face of ohstaclca
which deter others. That's the spirit
mat gets thcre-that'a the spirit that

CLIMBERS ON ROAD
LAST WESTERN "TRIP BEGAN YEs-
 TERDAY.
Gremfnger win Be Back in the Game, and Some snappy Work Will Result on The hant
 TBiu.

The last Western trip of the season begins for, the Climbers today with twelve games. i've of them being In Isit- tie Rock in three days. The team left home yesterday in good shape, every man in good condition.
 The pitchers are working nicely and the team is backing them up with m unusually fast game. When it is ra- ken into consideration that the team has been in q crippled condi vion for the past few weeks as Greminger has been out of the game. their work has been wonderfully good, Greminger has had very aggravated attack of malaria. hut he Is fast rounding into shape and the chances are that he will get back in the game in one of the Little Rock affairs. In that eveLt Hurt and shan uon will relieve ca .h other behind the bat end for the first time Tn nearly month. the team will be complete.
 Look out for some fast work on this Western trip. the position of the team in the September rIn down the stretch Is depending on the galnt mar they put up for the next few weeks.
 From now until September 6. Jack Higgins will give the games at his hall.
 A great deal depends on the first game of the Western trip today It will be Forest Thomas against Buc- hanan, and Higgins will nave an inter- ested crowd at his matinee this after noon.

EAST AND WEST WILL \
 MEET ON GOLF LINKS

New York. Aug. 22.-The usual mid summer lull in metropolitan golf is about over and fall dates are in such demand as to foreshadow the busiest autumn on record. Following the clash in the dates for metropolitan cham pionships and June fixtures there now is promise of another collision the third week in September in three tic ular struggles the intercollegiate, the Western open and the metropolitan open. The two former fixtures have the right of priority so that the met ropolitan Is bound to suffer most of the conflict.
 the great event of the goifing year. Wheaton III, beginning September 6. is attracting unusual attention. There never was a championship match more perplexing to forecast. Jerome ID. rravers. national titleholder in iso7-os, has done practically nothing this sea son and doubt was expressed today whether he would defend his title.
 Walter J. Travis is temporarily on his game particularly in putting, af- ter three months of great achievement which included recapturing the metro politan title in one of the greatest matches ever played.
 Fred HerreshofY, metropolitan rum ner-up and winner of the Nassau tourn- ament, although he has not played much lately, has been doing the best work or his career ana next to Ira wis, seems the man dependent of the Wheaton tournament.
 H. Chandler Egan. national champion of 1904 and 1905. has reconsidered his determination to withdraw entirely from the competitive sport and will contest at Wheaton, where he has won so brilliantly.
 Several youngsters figured as run ners-up in the spring tournaments but the only one to sustain his reputation is Charles Evans of Chicago.
 As the golf situation stands, one golf expert said today that Travis and Hereshoff will be the dependencies of the East and Chandler Egan the lead ing Western card in the coming championship tournament at Wheaton.
