LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE Royal and
Ancient Golf Club Of St. Andrews has
become dissatisfied with the treatment
dealt out to 1t by the town council, and
members say that unless their griev-
ances are remedied they will have to
acquire another course.
Complications have arisen because
there are two golf courses at St. An
drews, which are kept up by the club
at the expense of many thousands of
dollars a year. the public having the
right to play on the old course all the
year round and on the new course eX-
cept during July, August and Septem
Der, when the charge is a shilling a
day.
Many golfers go to st. Andrews. and
players have to give their names to a
committee the evening before, and the
order Of play is decided by ballot.
This year the old course has been
closed for almost the entire season on
account Of its bad condition, due to the
great amount of play thereon, and In
consequence there have been still great
er crowds on the new course. and mem
bers OF the club have had hardly any
chance to play.

gram from Denver, however, has re-
lieved the fears Of his family and
friends, who feared that some more
serious accident had befallen him.
A meeting of the deacons was held
last night, at which it was recon-
mended that the resignation, which Mr..
Dean had rendered as pastor, be &C
cepted, effective June ]. The recon-
mendation will be acted upon at a
church conference tonight. Mr.. Dean re-
signed the pastorate about two weeks
ago, effective within 80 days.
The officials of the church here have
heard from Mr.. Dean three times since
he left. He wired from Kansas City
in May that he was i'll. Later he wrote
his resignation on account of illness.
which his physicians said would prevent
him from doing any work within six
months. At a church conference a week
ago a committee was appointed to en-
deavor to locate Mr.. Dean and was au-
thorized to use any church funds neces-
sary in caring for him and bringing him
back home.
