Southampton, Long Island, Sept. II.
Three stymies laid by his opponent
proved too much for Reginald NJ.
Lewis, that rapidly improving Ridge
neld amateur, in the second round of
the invitation tournament at the Ma
tlonal Golf Links here to-day. Lewis
was beaten on the eighteenth green
by w. X. Tuckerman, a member of the
home club, who a few years ago won
the chief cup IN tournament on the
nearby Shinnecock Hills links. Tuck
erman has also been in the semi-final
round of national championship
tournament,
As result of his two successful
matches to-day, Tuckerman will meet
Philip Carter, of Nassau, tomorrow
morning, while in the other semi-final
II. Nj. Barnes, of Englewood, and Max
Marston, Of Baltusrol. Barnes played
as steadily as rock all day, and in the
morning 30 going out left his oppo-
ncnt, John N. Stearns, Sd, of Nassau,
down. Stearns has yet to have
good round here.
In the afternoon Barnes defeated W.
W. Hoffman, of the home club, de-
cisively, and, finishing the bye holes,
got 70 for the round. 1t was Barnes
who defeated Harold Hilton in this
tournament three years ago.
The old guard were treated TO a sur
priSe when Marston made short work
of the former national champion, Eden
NJ. Byers, of Allegheny. Byers was off
with his wooden clubs, but what really
defeated him was the deadly short
game of his opponent. At no time did
Marston take more than two puts on
green. Later on the Baltusrol man
defeated the far-driving J. Gordon
Douglas, of Tuxedo, prominent as a
racquet player.
Marston tells a story of his expert
ence Yesterday. lie had never seen
the course before and the caddie he
got was also a stranger. After one
Of his drives MarstOn asked his cad
die if he saw where the ball went? The
caddie replied: "No, sir; you hit 1t too
hard"
Carter played at his best this after
noon and had he finished the bye holes
in his match with Charles Amory, OF
Essex County, the chances are the IN
terscholastic title holder would have
been we'll under so.
Percy Pyne, I'd, had the distinction
of defeating Byers in the beaten eight
division this afternoon, while Ernest
Thompson, although loser to u. H.
McAlpin, and of Morris County, this
afternoon managed TO take the meas
ure of Martin w. Littleton, Of Oakland,
caller in the day. Later on Llttletoh
and Charles w. Murphy were seen
with their heads together, but they
solemnly declared they we're not IAN,
ing politics. There will be handicap
along with the match play tomorrow
