LONGEST DRIVE BY BRAID.
Golf Heroes Nearly Always the SFes.
 taeulsr, Long Distanee Drivers.

NeNSh1Af @eH5 1s--~aANo DANNGs3.
 What are some of the longest drives which have been made? To secure ac- curate records is rather difficult. for if the ground be sloping or hardened by frost and the wind is following the bah is bound to travel yards farther than would otherwise be the case. But driving a long ball Is one of the spec tacular features of the game which the onlooker will remember when a perfect approach from 100 yards is forgotten. Perhaps the reason is that drive of 300 yards or more cannot be equaled by many players, and the approach which is dead to the hole is only a sample of what every golfer at one or more times has accomplished.
 The longest recorded and fully au- theticated drive was made by James Braid at the fifteenth hole at Walton Heath. The latter has described the achievement as follows:
 The longest drive I have ever made. so far as I can recollect. was in 1905. when playing a round at Walton Heath with Mir. Cnow Sir) George Riddell. The course was frost bound and the wind at our backs when we were playing the fifteenth hole. and I hit my tee shot a distance of 3e5 yards carefully calculated afterward. At the eight eenth hole in the same round l drove to the bunker guarding the green. a drive of $50 yards
 The fifteenth hole at Walton Heath has a slight downward slope. but the eighteenth has not The drive at the fifteenth Is the longest of which there is any written record. The distances were measured by Sir Alex Kennedy. the engineer
 At the North Berwick tournament in July. 1909. W. H. Horne drove 3sS yards The North Berwick town clerk in issuing a certificate signed by .he green keeper stated: There is a steady fall from the tee to the hole The surface was firm and favorable to long run. while the wind was strong and practically following the player"

GLDS0LDIERS, ATTENTION.

ANY old soldier who made a
homestead entry of 40, so or 12O
acres in any State in the Union
before the year 1874 has a claim
coming to him from the Govern
ment provided he has never sold
this right or taken up another
homestead.
1t does not make any differ
ence whether he proved up on
his original homestead entry or
simply left it.
A soldier who never made a
homestead entry, or one who en-
tered land after June %, 1874,
has nothing to sell.
We buy these claims. The
widow or heirs of a soldier can
also sell these rights.

In Memory.

God in His wise providence
has called from our midst Ellen,
younger daughter of Rev. and
Mrs. M. T. Haw. She was born
August 90, 1905, and died at her
home here January %, 1910.
Besides her parents. three bro
theirs, sister and other relatives.
many friends are left to mourn
the loss, as everyone loved little
Ellen Haw. She is not dead,
but has fallen asleep with Jesus,
to awaken at the great Judgment
Day, when God shall call forth
all His children. She is gone,
and we will miss her presence
forever. No more will that lit
tie hand wave at mama, neither
will that sweet voice, sing those
childish songs or speak the
words "Rye, Papa!' which she
used to say. She is gone to the
other world, where she sings
around the throne of God, and
where there is neither sickness
nor death, nor sorrow, and
awaits the coming of parents,
relatives and friends.
The funeral services were held
at the grave, conducted by Rev.
Lowe, of the Cape.
"Tis hard to break the tender cord
When Love has bound the heart.
'Tis hard, so hard, to speak the words
We must forever part"
Dearest Ellen, we must lay thee
In the peaceful graves embrace:
But thy memory will be cherished
Til we see thy heavenly face.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
General Conditions Show Slight improvement
Over Last Week-Weather More Favorable.

New York May 6-Bradstreets review
of the state Of trade tomorrow will
say:
Trade as whole is still quiet, pending
clearer views of crop and price outcome.
but there is in evidence rather more
cheerful feeling in agricultural sections.
where injury from the recent cold weather
proves TO have been rather exaggerated.
and the securities markets are also
stronger on the evidences of charging
demand for American goods abroad.
This latter development has eased the
foreign exchange market and given rise
to hopes that anticipated heavy gold
shipments. forced by unsatisfactory ex-
port trade. will be found unnecessary.
Best reports as to trade come from the
larger markets OF the Central West,
Northwest. and Southwest
These appear largely based on expec-
tations Of better weather. the feeling that
while winter wheat and the fruit crops
have been injured. corn and oats are as
have been enlarged, and that spring
wheat, while needing rain, has. on the
whole, had a good start Winter killing.
followed by drought and lately by insect
damage, is conceded to have done dam
age TO the fall-sown wheat
The reports from the industries vary
quite widely The building trade report
for April shows good gains over earlier
months. contrasting with small increases
or actual decreases in recently preceding
months. There is a slightly better feeling
in cotton goods. though the prices situa-
ton there is about active trade"
