Francis Ouimet.

Brookline. Mass, Sept. 27.-Tele-
grams and letters of congratulation
from golf enthusiasts all over the
United States are pouring in on Fran
els Ouimet, the youthful winner of
the nineteenth championship tourna-
ment of the United States Golf asso-
citation in Brookline last week. In
keeping the championship in this
country Ouimet defeated Vardon and
Ray. the leading golf experts of Eng
land.
For more reasons than one the VIC
tory of Ouimet is noteworthy. This is
the first time in the history of golf
that an American has defeated the
best of England in a championship
tournament. And, besides, Ouimet is
a mere youth. not yet 21.
Both Vardon and Ray have I'M
stinted praise for the youthful cham
pion. They declare that he beat them
timent of the London Times that "all
miration for the wonderful feat of
Ouimet, who proved himself to be one
of the greatest of golfers
Ouimet is a native of Brookline.
His parents are poor and the boy
was forced at an early age to exc
out the family income by working as
a caddy on the very field where he
won his great triumph Saturday. From
his thirteenth year until he graduated
from the Brookline high school a year
ago he was a familiar figure on the
Rrookline links. His playing first at
tracted wide attention in the amateur
open tournament this
year, which Jerome D. Travers won.

DRUMMERS WON
Crutcher Was Invincible and
Held KaWS to ShutOut.
Error by Patched Up Team
Was Responsible for Score.

st. Joseph, Sept. 27.-With patched
up team. the Kaws were defeated by
the Drummers in the opening game OF
the closing series of the season by the
score of to 0. The poor fielding of
Mccullough and Cochran was respon-
sible for the large score of the locals
and Crutcher's pitching caused the
Kaws to be helpless.
Paul Brown pitched an excellent
game. McCollough's two bobbles were
in the fourth inning, and, coupled
with an error by Cochran. who was
playing at short in the place of Smith,
allowed the Drummers to score five
runs. Only one was an earned score
The Kaws didn't have a chance to
win. Crutcher was in fine form and al
lowed but four hits. Two Kaws got
far as third base but Crutcher tight
ened up and wouldn't allow them to
score.
Brown allowed ten hits and struck
out six men. The teams will play
double-header today and again Sunday.

place. The score:

FOUND DEAD ON TRACK
NIutilated Body of Woman Causes
Suspicion of Murder.

Chicago, Sept. 27.-The mutiliated
body of a we'll dressed woman was
found on the tracks of the Elgin, Joliet
and Eastern railway last night near
Wayne ILL.,, under circumstances which
made the coroner suspect that murder
had been committed. Workmen at a
stock farm, about a quarter of a mile
away. asserted that they heard screams
from that direction after an interur-
ban car from Chicago had passed. This
gave rise to the suspicion that the wo-
man was murdered and placed on the
tracks.
The body is so mangled the coroner
physician has been unable to determine
whether the woman was dead when the
freight train struck her. The engine
crew said they saw a dark blotch on
the track but thought it was pile of
cinders. The woman's purse is missing
and tlae only mark of Identification

o'clock Sunday in the city champion
ship series. There is much interest
being displayed in this series and to-

Nagle and Stewart for the Royal Tail

a chance at the money. One admis-

which are being played at League

First Boat Passes Into the Waters OF
Gatun Lake.

Panama, Sept. 27.-The most impor-
tant step thus far toward the opera
ton of the Panama canal took place
when the sea-going tug, Gatun, draw
ing twelve and a half feet of water
passed through the Gatun locks and
now floats on the bosom of Gatun lake
This was the first attempt made to
operate the locks on the canal and the
result was highly pleasing to Colonel
Goethals and canal officials generally.
All day long hundreds of persons,
men. women and children, withstood
the burning rays of the tropical sun to
see the act of passing the first vessel
from sea level to the level of Gatun
lake, which today had reached a height
of a little over sixtyfive feet. or with

the court said that 1t was Impossible
to hold that the effec of his ordinance
was to extend franchises which by
their terms had definite and fixed du'
ration.
The decision in part follows:
Applying these principles 1t Is I'M
possible TO hold that the effect OF this
ordinance was TO extend the franchise
which by their terms had definite and

suggested In the preamble OF the ordi
nance and does not necessarily in
