a long way to demonstrate the supe-

Lynch as the compromise offering to
break the deadlock
That governor John K. Tener can
be elected to the pAesIdeIe'y OF the
National league il he will allow his
name to be presented is a fOregOne
conclusion, and il is evident that the
governor of the Keystone state is not
averSe to taking the position.
He said in a speech he made at the
recent banquet given to the Athletics
by the mayor and citizens of Philadel-
phia: 7 have been the recipient OF
fraternal and political honors, but I
am proud to have been a professional
ball player"
Now, governor Tener. while he did
not come right out and say that he
was prOuder to have been a ball
player than to he governor. still ne
left the impression among his hearers,
and I think he intended to do so.
Governor Tener would grace the po-
sitiOn, because he would be proud OF
being the head of the oldest Organiza-
ton in baseball. Although being now
the incumbent in a position that car
ries with it honor and renOwn second
only to the head of the nation, he has
inferred that he would be glad to step
from the gubernatoriaI chair to the
leadership of the National league.
The national game will be honored
by John K. Tener's allowance of his
name to be presented as a candidate
for the presidency of the National
league.

Golf; Joys and Sorrows Of the FoozIer
By "Sfraigit Drive

n ANY hard things are said about
MI the foozler at golf, and many
Of them are. doubtless, well de-
served. says the London Times. But
the pity lavished on the poor fellow
who struggles against a fatal inepti-
tude is largely misplaced. The foozler
may be frequently a nuisance on
crowded courses and an impediment to
the rounds of better men, but he is
not actively unhappy, though he may
often be actively irritated, and he Ger
tainly has his cOmpensations. It would
surprise better players to know that
the fOOzler is satisfied by shots that
would strike terror in expert hearts
1t would astonish them to learn that
he finds acute enjoyment in the faint
but pursuing efforts which excite their
mirth- But so il is.
For the really bad player golf has
an enchantment of its own; for him
the game is full Of all sorts of deli
cious surprises. If he plays a hole
well, or does a fair round, the act
marks day in red letters; il he
strikes even one satisfactory blow in
the course Of otherwise lamentable eff
forts to do hole to death, that stroke
cOmpensates him for many errors.
Thus he wins at once an almost in
calculable advantage, for he makes
reasonably sure of some happy Incl
dents in a days play. He IS not dis
trauSht by the hope of winning
matches, for the hope soon perishes by
atrOphy
match that brings a contentment out
Of all proportion to the achievement.
Golf IS made for him, not he for golf
and he is less the abject slave Of the
game than better players. Like the
lnfrequent bridge player he is able to
