SHEEHAN TO MEET
LEGG IN finals
Iowa Golfer Stays I'm for Last
Round of Tourney at
Denver .

DENVER, Aug. 19.-The final match
of the Trans Mississippi golf cham
pionship will be fought out tomorrow
by Harry G. Legg of the Minnekahda
club, Minneapolis, and William Sheehan
of the Hyperion club of Des Moines.
Neither had much difficulty today in
eliminating their opponents in the
seminal round. Legg led c. Hains OF
Omaha from the second hole of the
morning round and finished an easy
victory OF IL up. Sheehan disposed Of
Lawrence Bromfield of the Denver
country club, up and to play. The
first part of the Sheehan-Bromfield
yer youngster weakened at the finish
and his opponents greater experience
in tournament play counted heavily on
the last round.
Legg showed the best form today he
has displayed this week. His long
game left little to be desired and the
deadly accuracy of his work on the
greens gave Gaines no opportunity to
take advantage of mistakes. Gaines
was none too certain of direction and
began to press badly in the last part
of the match. He showed a tendency
to over approach and his poor putting
cost him several chances to win holes
he was only able to halve.
Gaines won but one hole from Legg
in the whole days play. He took the
second hole of the morning round.
Starting the last round up, Legg
lost no time in completing the match.
He took the 10 hole in 5 and the 20
hole in 4.
Quantities of Scotch uialect were
spread over the course today while the
professionals played SO holes of medal
play. All the professionals were badly
off their game and high scores were
the result. The best score Of the day
was 1877 by Walter Clark, the local
clubs professional. L. Auchterlonfe of
Evanston, Kansas City, was tied for
second place with j. Rosman, with 16o
each.
Tarletin Brown of st. Louis today
won the finals for the directors cup
from L. B. Gates of the Colorado golf
club.
NJ. A. Mclaughlin of the Colorado
golf club won the finals for the presi-
dents cup from Jack Dewitt of Colo
rado Springs, 8 up and to play.

Portland. Oakland, Los Angeles
and Vernon ran their usual come
back races yesterday, so the
teams stand with about the snme
percentage as they stood when
the series opened. 1t was a
repetition of the work which
they began pulling OF on Tues
day. Now they are at eyens
again, so it's just like starting
the series all over.
San Francisco had grand
chance to head Oakland and
come within striking distance of
Portland yesterday, but that un-
fortunate mixup in the seventh
round simply Grabbed the
chance. Oakland might have
taken the lead away from Port
land, but the Beavers were there
with their usual rally at the cru
ciaI moment, so everybody is
even once more.

HEIREss TO THOUSANDS FOUND.
Birmingham Married Woman to Get
Fortune of Former Sweetheart.

Birmingham, Ala, Feb. 20.-A re-
markable romance was unearthed
here to-day by the finding Of Mrs.
Claude Vester, formerly Of Nash
Vile, Tenn, and who is the heiress
to an estate of about s235,000. The
estate was left by E. D. Ennis, who
formerly lived in Birmingham and
once was a sweetheart of Mrs. Vester,
then Miss Clark.
Ennis shot a man here in 1892
and fed from the city. He went to
Jamaica, where he amassed a for
tune, and about three years ago he
was fatally injured in a fight with a
Spaniard. Before his death he willed
his entire estate to Miss Clark, and
the jamaica authorities have since
been trying to find her.
Daniel Jones, of the Island Of ia
maica, is in Birmingham, and it was
due to his efforts that she was found
to-day.

IN THE PALMETTO STATE
SOME OCCURRENCES OF VARIOUS
KINDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
State News Boiled Down for Quick
Reading-Paragraphs About
Men and Happenings.

The general assembly adjourned
last Saturday. No legislation of far
reaching importance was enacted, as
the members generally seemed to shy
away from important problems, as
this is election year.
The judiciary committee of the
Senate presented resolution calling
on DR.. Babcock, the superintendent,
and the board Of regents Of the asy-
lum to resign, but the Senate killed
the resolution by decisive vote.
Work has begun in Greenville on
a handsome six-story office building
which is to cost 100000. It will
be known as the Masonic Temple.
This will be the handsomest office
building in the State, except the Loan
and Exchange Bank building In Co
lumbia.
The legislature passed a resolu-
tion providing for an investigation
of Clemson college, There are charg-
es af extravaganza at the institution,
it being stated on the floor of the
house that it cost more to maintain
students at Clemson than at any
other State college.
Corn clubs for the boys have been
organized in Sumter and Orangeburg
counties. Prizes of cash and other
things will be offered, and there will
be a number of contestants In both
counties. Bamberg ought to take
action along the same line. Nothing
will give a greater stimulus to corn
growing and induce the boys to take
an interest in farming.
Senator Tillman suffered a stroke
of paralysis last Wednesday, and
since that time has been very i'll at
his residence in Washington. He
was unconscious for some time, and
it was feared that ne would never
recover the power Of speech, even
should he survive. However, he has
regained his speech, and the latest
news from his bedside is that he is
improving, although it will be SOM
weeks before he can be brought to
South Carolina, and he will not be
able to again attend this session OF
congress.

Columbia, Feb. 1.-two little
girls were brought here this morn
and turned over to their mother
They were the children Of Mrs. B. R
Tillman, Jr., who was awarded their
custody by the Supreme court yester-
day. The children were accompanied
by Mrs. S. S. Tillman, and were turn,
ed over to young Mrs. Tillman's legal
representatives, these being Mr.. Alva
Depass, of Mrs. Tillman's counsel
and DR.. F. W. P. Butler, her cousin,
at whose home in this city she is
staying. There were no forma1ties
to go through with beyond the actual
transfer of custody, and Mr.. Depass
and DR.. Butler fastened with the chill
dren to DR.. Buffers home, where the
young mother awaited them with the
natural eagerness born of separation
from her babies since November 27.

MEETS BATTLEsHIP COMMISSION
The South Carolina's Commander al
Columbia.

Columbia, Feb. 18.-Capt. A. r.
Fechteler, commander Of the battle
ship South Carolina, was here this af-
ternoon, for a conference with the
hattleship committee. At the confer
ence plans were discussed for the pre-
sentation of the silver service and the
entertainment to be given in Charles
ton on the occasion. Capt. Fechteler
was presented to the Senate by Lieu
tenant Governor Mcleod, the presid-
ing officer, and was introduced by
Governor Ansel to members of the
General Assembly and to State Off
cials and visitors to the Capitol.
Governor Ansel stated this after
noon that presentation of the silver
service at noon on April IL would be
on shore in the City of Charleston.

more convenient to have these exer-
cises ashore than on the ,battleship, y
he said. THE people will thus have
the opportunity of seeing the pre-
sentation." On this occasion the
State flag will be presented to the
battleship by the Daughters of the
American Revolution. From 1.30 to
s O'Clock in the afternoon recep-
tion will be given by the captain and
officers of the South Carolina. Boats
will be at the wharf in Charleston to
convey guests to the battlesh1p.
Cards will be presented at the land
ing. The invitations for the silver
service presentation exercises will be
sent out by the battleship commits
sion. Of course the invitations for
the reception aboard the battleship
will be sent out by the captain and
officers.
The South Carolina will leave
Philadelphia on March 6. and will go
to Hampton Roads, to coal. Thence
the battleship will go to Cnlebra and
the return trip will be to Charleston,
arriving there April 10.
Capt. Fechteler is very much
pleased with the assignment of the
South Carolina and he is proud of
the nations best battleship." There
is one South Carolina officer aboard
the South Carolina.
Capt. Fechteler arrived here at l
o'clock this afternoon and left at 40
p. m. for Washington. He met in
conference Governor Ansel, Senator
Mauldin and Representative E. NJ.

These churches have recently
formed a field. and the work prom
ises to move on harmoniously. The
pastors task is great one, because
the field is so large, and thoroughness
ir all its parts is not possible. But
a cooperative people will help much
to tighten the burden, and already
they have expressed their apprecia-
ton of their pastor in very sub
stantial way; for on the 18th instant
representatives from all these
churches gathered at the pastors
home, bringing baskets we'll filled
with good things to eat, and favorable
weather made it possible to spread
the feast in the grove near by. and
all seemed to have pleasant day.
The presence of Methodist and Luth-
eran pastors and some of their mem
bers added pleasure to the occasion.
II was a good day for the pastor and
his family, for when these kind peo-
pie left, in his pantry dozen nice
hams, barrel of -four and syrup,
sugar, rice in abundance, were found.
May the pastor prove worthy of be-
ing remembered thus.

Fairfax FancieS.

Fairfax, Feb. 1S.-We were not
very much surprised when told on
Sunday last that Mr.. Sam Rouse had
left for Leesburg, Va, where next
morning at 8 a. m. he claimed and
obtained his bride, the valentine
OF his life. He married at the home
of her parents, Miss Blanche Cook
sey. Mr.. Rouse and bride returned
to Fairfax Immediately after the
ceremony. They were met at the
depot by many friends, as both had
lived here long enough to have made
many. Mr.. Rouse is our popular de-
pot agent, while his bride resided
her for several years, and had not
long returned to the home of her
parents. They are boarding at that
popular hosiery, the Barber House.
We wish for this beloved couple un-
alloyed and eternal happiness.
