regret that Rev. Mr.. Crozier has ten
dered his resignation as pastor of the
Presbyterian church of this city, the
same to take effect next Sunday. For
some time Rev. Crozier has desired
to do special work in the divinity
school at the University of Chicago.

the summer work and he is to en-
brace it. In the autumn he will again
take up regular pastorate duties, some
where in the mountain region, but not
in this immediate vicinity. While he
is engaged in the university work,
Mrs. CroZier, and the children will
visit the parental homes in Iowa. Dur

range Rev. Crozier has won for him
self the highest regard accorded the
best type of mana Christian gen.

have made a large circle of friends
with people in all walks of life re-
gardless of church affiliations and by

distinct loss to the town.

GOLFER WINS OUT.
KirI<by Drives Ball Over the Polo
Grounds Fence.

New York, May 17.-That oft asked
question-"Can a golfer drive golf ball
farther than a batsman can drive a base
ball?"-was answered in favor of the
golfer yesterday.
Christy Mathewson, Manager McGraw,
and several other Giants made bets with
Grantland Rice, sporting editor, and
several golfers against the driving of a
golfer. 3efore the game Rice introduced
Oswald Kirkbt, who teed several balls at
the home plate at the Polo Grounds and
drove them over the center field fence
a trick that no batsman has ever per-
formed.
Then just to show that II doesn't re-
quire an expert golfer like Kirkby to
turn the trick, Rice smashed two balls
over the fence, and those who saw the
balls in fight assert that they are still
going. The distance from home plate
to the fence is 800 yards and one Of the
balls cleared the fence by sbout 100 feet.
