Field Club Course
in Shape for Play
Long Grass Hazards Are Cut Away
and Trees Substituted--An
Island Hole.

The lawn mower got busy on the Omaha
Field club course last week and cut all
the long grass. Lost balls are therefore a
thing Of the past at this club. To replace
long grass hazards trees have been planted
over the course and bunkers built In va
rious places.
The bunkers and trees have for the most
part been placed on the west and south
sides, as the course is considered plenty
difficult enough on the north and east.
Will Clarke, the professional in charge OF
club golf, intends to have the golf COM
mittee out next week and establish a new
bogy for the course, unless they decide the
old one stands with the new hazards Sur
veying will also be done and the exact
measurements of the distance taken.
Hole No. II at the Field club has been
shortened sixty-five yards, making the
hole 100 yards long. This is one of the
shortest distance holes in the country and
It will require some finesse to drive to II
and not many yards beyond it.
1t has been made an island" hole, with
bunkers surrounding II on all sides and
requiring a masse shot to get the ball inside
so it can be putted in.
Hole No. Is has been extended seventy
five yards, and on this hole will be the
unduating green, the first one in Omaha
It il 100 feet square and covered with little
hummocks from eight to sixteen inches
in height. Sweet clover has been sown or
this green and Mr.. Clarke declares thai
1t will be ready for use for the state tour
ney in July. Hazards are placed on ethel
side for protection and to allow slicing ovel
the little undulations. and in front is a BIZ
protecting bunker which also serves as {
pool for Hole No. 8.

Charmed, indeed, was Frank zottz
at the sunday meeting ,of the Belmont
Central Trades and Labor Assembly.
The delegates presented him with a
watch charm in recognition of his
faithful attendance during the year as
a fraternal delegate from the Ohio
Valley Trades and Labor Assembly.
The charm is in the form of locket,
is of gold and engraved with his name
and the initials "a. F. of L." and "B.
C. T. & L. A." The presentation speech
was made by President M. J. Snyder,
who called Delegate zottz before the
throne after the regular business of
the Assembly was over, and it was a
most pleasing speech. Delegate Zottz
was quite overcome, but managed to
reply neatly in a review of the decline

''EyeryLitt Bit Added To What You We
Got, Makes Just A Little Bit More"

ed in the Belmont Trades Assembly
meeting at Bridgeport Sunday. Most
of the delegates we're from Bellaire,
and they had been stung for that
extra nickel. President Snyder was
asked to give some remarks on the
subject, and did SO, being followed, on
request, by Walter B. Hilton, editor
Of The Majority, J. B. O'Toole, 3. E..
Tharpe, J. F. Francis and others. The
concensus of opinion seemed to be
that the Bellaire city council should
make some effort to hold the COM
pany within it's franchise permission
of one through fare Of five cents.
OF course the company has an ex-
cuse for the extra charge. Some time
ago Prof. Kilmeyer. of Wheeling,
while clambering over the subway
tracks in Benwood, being transferred
during flood time, form one car to an
other, it being impossible to run
through the subway, fell and sustain
ed injuries for which he brought suit
against the company. He secured the
verdict and the company appealed, of
course, to the higher court, where the
case now hangs.
The company now refuses to accept
the responsibility of getting a pas
senger to his destination. That parti-
cular kind of any evasion appeals to
the company more than any other,
because there is more money in that
than in any other. And that's what
the Traction Trust is after.
