PROSPECTS GOOD
FOR CLOSE RACE
Each of Tri- Cities Has Strong
Contender for Champion
ship of Golf Club.
ILLINOIS MEN ARE FAVORED
Ario Mitchell of Rock Island and
John Cady of Moline Appear
to Have the Edge.

If the recent playing OF Ardo
Mitchell of Rock Island. John D.
Cady of Moline and Decker French
of Davenport may be taken as a cri-
terion of the class of golf which they
will play in the mems championship
tournament of Rock Island Arsenal
Golf club beginning Monday, the race
for the championship of the season
Will be a close one between those
three and each of the tri-cities will
have a splendid opportunity to win
first honors. Each of the trio has
played a brilliant game through the
season, and though Mitchell is count
ed upon for low score honors, Cady
may win over him because of his ex-
perience and steadiness. This season
he has recovered the form which
marked his play a few years ago
when he defeated Mitchell for the
championship.
FRENCH A CONFER.
French, who has developed into a
championship player within the last
few seasons. may spring a surprise
and defeat the former champions, but
he is not counted upon as so likely a
winner as the Illinois men At any
rate the match throughout will be
close and there will be plenty of in
terest in the play during the week.
Will Middleton, who was runner up
to Leon Mitchell last year, may be
able to present a hard fight to his
opponents. c. B. Schmidt of Daven-
port may also be counted upon to
furnish a hard contest for any oppon-
ent he meets.
FOUR CUPS OFFERED.
For the tournament, four cups are
offered, the mems championship cup,
Glass b cup, Glass C cup and a con-
ISOLATION cup. The match is open to
life and resident members only. The
qualifying round will be SO holes, l s
of which will be played Monday and
Is Tuesday. The eight highest scores
will qualify for the championship
cup and the next 16 for the Glass b,
the next l s for the Glass c and the
next 16 for the consolation. The
classes will play off at match play
for the ownership of the cups, each
match to be IS holes. except the fl
nails in each class which shall be Sc

The championship finals may be
postponed till Saturday, on mutual
agreement of the two contestants.

Opening of The Kennedy Opera
House.

There being much inquiry as u the
date when this grand new Opera
House will upene, the LEADER in
teryiewed Mr.. Kennedy with refer
enCe to the matter and he gave the
following Information: We have been
working hard TO get this new house
open at the earliest date possible, but
in finishing up a building Of this kind
much is to be done that could not be
provided for in advance. 1t is rapidly
| approaching completion, and We are
planning for the opening somewhere
between the twentieth of October
and the first of November, and when
the opening takes place we expect to
give a performance that has never
been equaled in Canton or surpassed
in the state.
For nearly twenty years Canton has
wanted a modern Opera house and
wanted it bad. Many plans and pro,
jects were suggested and proposed for
supplying this want but none could
be adopted.
" hen this New Opera house is com
plcted Canton will have a house that
is the equal of any in the state.
While not as large as some, in plan,
finish and comfort none excel it.. |
preceded on the idea that the best
was none to good for Canton, and
with this idea always in view | built
this fine house.
At its opening | shall be very much
pleased to have the people Of Canton
show their appreciation Of my work.
When such a building as an Opera
House is opened for the public good,
it is customary to charge an extra ad-
mission in the shape of a testimonial
or benefit to the builder, but | do not
expect to receive anywhere nea what
other towns have given, | cannot
state just what the admission will be,
but | a assure the people it will be
very moderate. There will be five
different priced seats, thus enabling
all who wish to be at the opening a
chance within their means.
1 nave spent muCi ldDOF anu means
in building this house and it will not
pay an adequate return on the money
invested but if the people Of the city
show a lively appreciation of my eff
forts it will certainly be a great in
ducement to others to do what they
can for the upbuilding of Canton.
Within two weeks all thG prelimin-
aries for the opening will be made.

Charley South About to Leave
Lincoln County.

Charles A. South is one of the old
est residents of this county, having
located In Eden township in June
1869.
Mr.. South was born at Monroe,
Wisconsin, and when the civil war
broke out he enlisted in the Fifth
Wisconsin light artillery, a battery
that did splendid service in the west
and was engaged in many desperate
battles. After he was mustered out
he decided that Montana was a good
country for a young man to find gold
in and away he went. He remained
there three years, Montana at that
time being part of the Territory of
Dakota. Not finding gold as plenty
as pictured in those days, he decided
to face east, and hearing Of the beau
tiful Big Sioux Valley, decided to
look it over. Finding Eden township
a rural paradise, he pitched his tent,
where he finally built a home, and
built the first frame barn and planted
the first tame grass and the first
grove of trees in the county in 1870.
He also secured, planted and improved
a yellow dent corn which he named
Legal Tender" and from this fam
Gus variety all the good corn in Lin
coin county came. Some of the trees
he planted in 1870 are standing and
some of them would make a 1000 feet
20 law, Lo. t,lar ~ co"oI m
He was elected sheriff in 1876 and
states he only received $500 in cash
during his one term, the balance was
in warrants which he traded to Allen
Spencer of Fairview for lumber.
He organized the The Farmers Mu-
tual Insurance Company, which is
one of the most prosperous companies
in the state. Was it's first secretary
and general manager for the first two
years and the next two he was presi-
dent and secretary. Mr.. South has
done as much as any man in the cOun-
ty to develop it's wonderful resources,
and now, vigorous and full Of ambi-
tion at 10, has decided to give up
work and travel. He determined
some years ago to visit every state in
the Union, having already been in 81
out of the 46, and he intends to visit
the balance.
He owned 1000 acres of land until
recently, having sold all but GAO acres,
leaving him enough for a home here
when he gets tired travelling, and may
he enjoy his vacation with good health
is the wish of the LEADER.
