CRACK GOLFERS To
BREAK TRIPLE TIE
American Open Champion
ship to Be Played for

PHILADELPHIA, June 20.-They are
not to close the Stock Exchange In Phila
delphia or the banks. yet the object of
setting the only triple tie in the history
of the American or any other open golf
championship for $50 o'clock this after
noon was to enable business men and So
ciety women who play or are interested
in the game to see the contest at a con-
venient hour. There is no Sunday play at
the Philadelphia Cricket Club. and the
rest. with early cutting and rolling this
morning, will have the course in apple

When the selection of Friday and Sat

day, there was a prompt inquiry from
many quarters why no plans had been
made for a tie that would not keep those
engaged in it from distance at Phila-
delphia over Sunday. The professionals

AEROPLANES MAY RACE
AGAINST AUTOMOBILES
Prize of $4,000 Offered for
Contest From New York
to St. Louis.

What an areoplane can actually do
against an automobile or a motor cycle in
a long distance run is to be determined in
a race from New York to st. Louis. for
which the New York World has already
Offered a prize of $4,000 The details Of
the race have not been arranged and the
prize according to the paper, is subject
to an increase.
Aeronautic enthusiasts look upon the
race as by far the most important flying
event that has eve~ been proposed. 1t
was not more than two years ago that
man was demonstrating his ability to fly
at all. Since that time there have been
long cross-country flights made and it has
been proved that point-to-point travel by
aeroplane is possible. Now it is to be
determined how the new method of con-
yevance compares with established modes.
Long Flights Already Made.
The four flights across the English
channel. the many cross country flights
In France and the long flights of Paulhan
from London to Manchester and Curtiss
and Hamilton between Albany and New
York and New York and Philadelphia
have all demonstrated the ability of an
aeroplane to- make long flights safely. 1t
was also determined by these nights
about what speed could be expected from
an aeroplane. 1t was proved that
flying machine could easily run away
from a torpedo boat and that 1t could
make a special train hustle to keep up
with it. All of the fights were made,
however, under the best possible condl-
tons and all of them. except the Nights
of c. S. Rolls across the channel and re-
turn and that >of Hamilton from New
York to Philadelphia and back, were made
on a single leg. so that when the ma
chine was once in the air there was little
to expect of it but speed.
Motorist Knows What to Expect.
The automobilist knows just about
what to expect on the ST. Louis run. 1t
will take at least three days, and he
knows about what to allow for bad roads.
repairs stops and tire changes. The
aviator will not have to bother about
There is no question that he can beat
the automobile on a point-to-polnt run,
but when it means run of several days
the stops for rest, repairs and fuel and
| that sort of thing the flying machine is
entirely an unknown quantity.
The chances are That an automobile
could have beaten either Paulhan or
Hamilton on their long flights so far as
elapsed time went. What the aeroplane
! will be able to do against the auto on
such a flight that from New York to
| st. Louis is a problem. 1t is a test that
aviators say will do great deal toward
| establishing the practicability of the
aeroplane for fast long-distance travel.
The date of the event and all the other
| details are still to be determined. Prob
ably the prize will be hung and the date
| left to be determined by mutual agree
| ment

W|CKERSHAM TO AID
Of RUNAWAY VICTIMS
His Auto Proves UsefuI-Mr.
Taft Offers to Help Girl
Thrown From Horse.

President Taft and Attorney General
Wickersham tried to use their automo-
biles as ambulances yesterday, but only
the latter succeeded in figuring as real
rescuer.
The Attorney General was driving his
car along Massachusetts, avenue north
in the evening when a pair of runaway
horses dashed into the avenue and the
occupants of the vehicle jumped to the
ground and were injured.
i l. c. Elston and his bride of Detroit
Mich, in Washington on their honey
moon. were the victims of the runaway,
and because Mrs. Elston had received a
slight scalp wound and was somewhat
dazed, the assistance offered by Mr.
Wickersham was accepted and the couple
were carried to Union station in time
to catch their train.
The President, with his military aid,
Capt. \. w. Butt, was just leaving the
White House grounds in the afternoon
when he witnessed an accident in which
a young equestrienne was thrown to the
ground by the slipping of her horse. Capt.
Butt was out of the car in an instant,
assisting the young woman to her feet.
President Offers Aid.
You'd better get in here" said Presi-
dent Taft. and let us take you home"
Thank you, very much,' she answered,
but l think I'm all right" and as she in
sisted upon continuing her ride, she was
lifted into the saddle by her escort and
Capt. Butt. Even then she seemed al
most too weak to hold the reins and the
presidential offer of assistance was again
extended, only to be again declined, and
tod
away. Their names could not be learned
and neither Of them was known to the
President or Capt. Butt.
Mr.. and Mrs. Elston, who had been in
Washington for three days, started from
the New Willard about 6 o'clock, to be
driven to the station. They had a vic
toria belonging to j. +. Berry, liveryman,
of 1854 & Street and driven by Solomon
Dorsey, colored. of 1000 18th street.
Horses Run Away.
The animals were spirited and in Mas
became frightened and started to run
cases and other baggage about his feet,
Dorsey had some little difficulty in getting
the horses under control, but even though
he shouted to Mr.. and Mrs Elston not to
jump, the latter became wildly excited
pulled away from her husbands restrain
ing arm and leaped to the ground. She
fell heavily and rolled against the curbing.
Solicitous for his brides safety, Elston,
too, jumped, and in falling one of his
arms was wrenched.
Dorsey brought the horses to a standstill
short distance from the accident, but
Mrs. ElSton would not re-enter the car
riage. Their injuries were not sufficiently
serious to necessitate a trip to a hospital
and they accepted the invitation of the
Attorney General to use his automobile
though it Is an open question whether
they were aware of the identity of their
DISTINGUISHED chauffeur.

Manchester, March 24.-Pursuant to
the announcement made by County Su-
perintendent Frank D. Joseph several
days ago to the effect that he would
institute an oat contest for the boys
county, he has sent out this week to
about eighty Of the boys one-half
bushel of imported oats, which has
been said to yield an enormous acre
age, with but little scientific treat
ment. It has been Mr.. Joseph's plan
that by instituting this contest, RI
valry would arise among the school
boys, which would be keenly watched
BY their fathers, who in turn would
take up the proposition of better seed
for their crops in the future
The contest which has been out
lined by Mr.. Joseph is something new
for the county superintendent to un-
dertake, but Mr.. Joseph has always
been looking after the best interests
of the rural schools, and by opening
this contest a great benefit will re-
suit in the way of more scientific treat
ment Of the planting and raising OF the
grain.
The seed, two hundred bushels, was
purchased from large Canada seed
importing company, and consists Of
white and black varieties, of which
careful records will be kept to ascer-
tain the stand made by each, and the
heavier yielder.
The annual county spelling contest.
which has been followed by large
inter-county contest, has been one Of
the innovations Of Superintendent JOS
eph's interest taken in the practical
side of the education of the farmer boy.

Winfield.
Winfield had another narrow escape
been into one of the wooden build
ings in the frame row in the north
end Of town, and in the same room
was a tub of benzine paint into which
a spark from the hot iron fell. The
paint at once ignited, and only the
presence of mind of the workmen and
a barrel Of water in the next room
prevented a contiagration. This is at
least three times since the destructive
fire Of Dec. 80 that fires have started
which in either case would have en-
tailed heavy loss.
Davenport.
Alleging that the young man against
whom the judgment was secured was
not of age Attorney J. c. Hall has
filed a notice asking that the judg-
ment secured by H. j.. Roehrs against
John LorentZen be vacated. 1t seems
that last October Mr.. Roehrs secured
judgment against Mr.. Lorentzen for
$500 and the latter was not represented
in court. Attorney Hall was consulted
in the matter later, however, and found
out that Lorentzen was not 81 years Of
age when the judgment was secured.
He claims that a judgment can not be
secured against minor and therefore
filed the petition in the district court.

The Keithsburg bridge will be COM

struction to navigation and the Iowa
Central Railroad Company is in for
damages. The Lizzie Gardner went
north Saturday but on reaching Keiths-
burg was forced to turn back and re-
turned to Quincy to await the COM
pletion of the bridge. This will delay
the opening Of the season for the
White Collar Line. 1t is likely the
bridge will be ready for business by
the second week in April. The boat
owners may claim damages for every
