THEY WILL NOT MARRY
FORMER REPRESENTATIVE AND
LOCAL BELLE CHANGE PLANS.
Engagement Declared of After a
Week Of Rumors
That Way.

Friends of former Representative The
ron e. Catlin of Missouri and Miss Laura
Beatrice Merriam. daughter Of former
Gov. and Mrs. William r. Merriam Of
Minnesota, declare that the ousting Of
the young Missourian from his seat In
Congress had nothing to do with the
termination Of the engagement between
the two, which was made public yester-
day.
When the announcement Of the engage
ment was made. barely six weeks ago.
members of Washington's upper circles Of
society expressed the belief that the
match was an ideal one. Both Mr.. Cat
lin and Miss Merriam are young, enthu-
siastic, have similar tastes and seemed
to be expressly suited to each other. The
announcement that the engagement has
been broken came as a surprise, though
rumors that such a break might occur
have been current for the past week or
more
In severing the engagement the an
nouncement Is made that the young peO-
pie found that they are temperamentaily
unsuited. and therefore decided the en-
gagement had been a mistake.
Mr.. Catlin, since being OuSted from his
seat In Congress. has been nominated on
the republican ticket, his friends express
ing the belief that the denomination was
complete vindication. 1t will be re-
called that he was ousted on the grounds
that excessive amounts Of money had
been expended in behalf OF his candi-
dacy, the Missouri law limiting the
amount to $685.. while it was shown his
father. who is known as the tobacco
king" Of Missouri, had spent more than
$4,000 to obtain a seat in the House for
his son. Mr.. Catlin is at present in st.
Louis, while Miss Merriam is with her
brother and sister-in-law, Paymaster and
Mrs. John Merriam at their Chevy Chase
Washington for the west within a few
days.

LABOR DAY GOLF ON
THE LOCAL COURSES
Interesting Handicaps Played
at Washington and Co.
Iumbia Clubs.

Because of the fact that so many OF
the local golfers are out of town for the
summer. yesterday was not by any
means the active Labor day of the past,
neither Chevy Chase nor Bannockburn
holding any events, and that of Colum-
bia drawing but few entries for the three
handsome prizes offered.
The Washington Country Club was the
only one Of the local clubs to have a
well filled event. This was an eighteen
hole handicap match against par, the
entrants dividing their official handicaps
by two to determine the number OF
strokes to be allowed them, and starting
that many up against par. w. E. Sey-
both and D. F. Asbury tied for first
place, both being even to par. The tie
will probably be decided this week. The
prize was handsome silver loving cup
offered by DR.. Taber Johnson. Forty
two players entered this event, and some
very good scores were turned in The
