HIGHEST PLAY EVER REACHED
Ouimet, the Golf Hero, Carried on
Friends Shoulders.

| Brookline, Mass, Sept. 20.-Franc.s
Oulmet' amateur golfer, was the hero
OF the hour here yesterday, for he tied
with Harry Vardon and Edward Ray,
the invading English professionals at
Fort National open golf championship.
The three leaders at the end of the
q holes each had a total of 304 strokes.
a slightly higher figure than was an
ticipated which was due to the heavy
rain which fell all day.
1t was Il great and thrilling rally,
when the odds seemed all against him.
that put Ouimet in the highest play
ever reached by an amateur golfer in
the United States.
A great round in "A in the morning
put the 20-year-old Massachusetts,
champion on even terms with Vardon
and Ray at the END of "a holes, for
with what seemed to be a safe lead at
the end of the first day, the English
man slipped back a bit in the third
round, which Ray made in 76 and Var
don in IS. This left the three tied at
225 with one more round to play. The
draw for the pairings sent the British
ers away early both morning and af-
ternoOn, while Ouimet was one of the
late starters and it so happened that
Ray finished his fourth round before
Ouimet started and Vardon came in a
few minutes later.
The young amateur knew before he
began that he had to do 70 to tie and
better to win. He began steadily but
before long the strain began to tell
On the fifth, sixth and eighth holes he
found the traps and lost a stroke each
time. On the tenth green came the
elimination of his troubles. for he fail
ed to drive the green and when he did
get on in two he took three puts and
had a five for three hole.
1t seemed as though all chance for
the championship was gone but Ouimet
was not beaten after all. He pulled
himself together like a veteran and
began to play golf. The first brilliant
flash came on the thirteenth then he
held a chip shot from just off the
edge of the green for a three. That
gave him a much needed gain of 1
stroke and with five holes to play he
could take no more than 10 strokes if
he were to tie for the title and par
for the five holes was 20.
Three holes went by without the OPP
portunity to gain the one stroke nee
esSary presenting itself. On the 18th a
perfect approach put his ball IS feet
from the pin. Ouimet knew that he
must make that putt or he was out
of it; everyone in the big gallery knew
it and there was a riotous moment
when the ball dropped into the cup. He
made his par four on the hole, though
he kept the crowd in suspense by leav-
ing himself a hard right foot put.
He got it down, however, and
pandemonium broke loose again. He was
carried to the locker room on the
shoulders of his friends.

TO MAKE NEUTRAL ZONE
The Azores Islands Are Under Inter-
national Consideration.

London, Sept. 20.-A proposal to make
the Azores archipelago an information
al neutral zone is being considered by
the American British and German gov
ernments, according to today's Man
chester Guardian. The proposal is said
to be incidental to the opening of the
Panama canal. The fact that German,
American and British companies have
a joint able station on the island,
makes free access to them of the ut
most Importance. 1T is proposed"
says the Guardian. that a joint treaty
be arranged letween Portugal and the
other civilized nations by which a neu-
trail international zone shall be estab-
lished and strictly maintained in the
archipelago. 1t is suggested that all
vessels within this zone be protected
against attack or seizure and allowed
to receive provisions and fuel"

BANANAS TO Be FREE.
President Wilson Induces Senate Con-
ferees to Recede.

Washington, Sept. 2O.-The tariff con-
ference committee today voted to leave
bananas on the free list.
After a long controversy in which
the influence of Mr.. Wilson was thrown
in favor of the continued free importa-
ton of the fruit the senate conferees
receded from their amendment, which
would have imposed a duty of one
tenth of one cent per pound.
The senate conferees also gave way
as to the duty on lemons, lines, grape
fruit and similar fruits, leaving the
rates as fixed by the house, based on
the measurements of packages. The
of one cent per pound. The house rates
agreed to are a slight reduction over
the existing rates.
Other important decisions definitely
removed the proposed countervailing
duty against wood pulp and imposed
countervailing duty against potatoes
when imported from countries impoS
ing duties on like imports from the
United States. The senate had struck
out the wood pulp countervailing duty
imposed by the house and the con-
ferees today ratified that action. The
10 per cent countervailing duty on po-
tatoes, adopted by the conferees also
was a senate amendment.
A compromise at about 11a cents a
pound was reached on Zante currants
upon which Greek importers had made
a hard fight. The house provision put
ting press cloths used in cotton seed
oil mills on the free list, was accepted.
The senate members also receded from
their rate on hats, and the house rate
of 40 per cent ad valorem was adopted.

''The Republican party will come
back next year strong" said Mr.. Ryan.
1.-The fratricidal strife of last year is
being forgotten and our past differ
ences buried. Thousands of men who
voted for Roosevelt never took any
stock in the idea of third party and
even among those who thought new
party a good thing, there is a marked
movement to return to the Republican
ranks. Next year will bring it's own
issues and new leaders to champion
bygones will be bygones- Everybody
admires President Wilson but there is
q general distrust of Democratic poll
cies. This distrust is particularly no
ticeable in organized labor circles and
also among business men. Governor
Hodges is the victim of circumstances
Coming into office with the best in
tentionS he is unable to reduce taxes
and the feeling is growing in Kansas
that the state institutions are running
down under the management of Demo-
cratic politicians.
II look to see Republican return

fold and fighting for Republican sue

1t is probable that E. S. Bower OF
Lincoln may be the Progressive candi-
date for congress in the Sixth district

voted Progressive, is strong in the

of the state and is a strong lawyer
Sample is also popular in the district
and has been prominent both in poll
