Ivan The Terrible, Heavy Villain" of Russia,s Drama

Of fancied co~nspiracies. To crush these
imaginary plots he slew numbers of
noblemen, along with their entire fam

Of these was the turning loose of wild
dogs and bears among throngs of inno-
cent people.
The city Of Novgorod incurred his
displeasure. He marched against it
with an army and massacred 10000 of
its Inhabitants. He had the prisoners
herded in an Enclosure and slew them
with his W hand as long as he could
strike a blow. Then he ordered his
fierce troops to continue the slaughter

A ~thousandth part Of such cruelty
as his would have set any nation, in
late days. into a fame of revolt. But

Must Master the Iron Clubs

The true secret Of successful golf is
accurate iron play. A man cannot be
a really first-class player unless he is
more or less a master Of all manner
Of iron clubs. Deadly accurate ap-
preaching will make up for many de-
fects in wooden club play, and, in con-
sequence, 1t is the iron clubs above
any other with which a player should
practice. am not going to say that
1t is necessary for a player to be a
complete master of every class Of iron
shot and to have intimate knowledge
Of the correct way Of playing them,
but / will say that it is absolutely
necessary for a player who is anxious
to attain any great measure Of scccess
to have a good command OF his iron
clubs.-Harold H. Hilton, in the Out
ing Magazine.

The United States was eager for
more Of the Greek lands. Mcintosh
stood high in the Creek councils. He
could be of q in managing treaties"
for the despoiling Of his people. He
willingly accepted the governments
offer and secretly became its paid
agent. 1t was ii highly profitable bit of
double-dealingi for a time.
Fifteen million acres of Creek land
were soon after transferred to the
United States. Mcintosh reaped a rich
harvest by this treaty" But 1t
ruined him with the Creeks. They
made no open threats against the
traitor; but they simply met in coun-
ell and re-enacted his own former law,
making any such future transfers pun
ishable, by death.
In 1924 Mcintosh received q large
cash offer for his services in a plan
for ceding 10000, 900 more acres Of
the Creeks to the government. The
majority Of the Creeks fiercely pro-
tested against this glazing robbery.
John C. Calhoun, secretary of state,
declared that it was cruelty unjust.
President Monroe laid the treaty be-
fore the United States senate. And,
after John Quincy Adams Inaugural
ton, 1t was approved. A letter in
which Mcintosh had offered bride
money to one of the Creek officials to
side with the government was discov-
cred by the Indians. This proved the
willy half-breed's treachery past all
question. The Creeks-using his own
old law as a death manufactured
McIntosh's life forfeited.
This time Mcintosh was really
alarmed. He retired to a fortified
house at Milledgeville and surrounded
himself with a strong guard. The
Creeks went about the traitors execu-
ton in a quiet, business-like way.
On the night Of May /, 1926, one
hundred of them surrounded his
house. They sent orders to his guards,
servants and family to leave the place
once. Then they burned the house
to the ground. Mcintosh, dashing out
through the flames, was shot dead.
No punishment was inflicted on Nc
Intosh's slayers. The question Of ven
geance vas brought before President
Adams. But. for everybody's sake, it
vas deemed best to let the affair drop.
1t was a scandal the administration
did not care to make too public.
