pecially adpated to the needs of a
country club. The grounds cover 105
acres and it's 1S-hole golf course OF
about 5000 yards is about as interest
Ing In character as any golf devotee
would wish TO play over. This club
offered to arrange In its house a
private dressing room and shower
bath for the president, but he de-
clined the offer with the statement
that in the summer he would take his
shower right in with the boys"
AT the Washington Suburban club,
the president is particularly fond OF
the course. He especially likes the
fifth hole, situated in sandy knoll,
because II Is so difficult to negotiate.
This club is a Hebrew organization
and Mr.. Wilson enjoys its privileges
because his wishes in regard to extra
demonstration at his arrival, are al
ways considered. and he comes and
goes there with the simplicity that
marks all Of his movements.
country club is OF great conven-
fence to any man, for II enables him
to enjoy all OF the privileges Of a
great country estate at small cost
and without the trouble attendant
upon maintaining one He can hunt
over fine property, ride, drive and en-
Joy the outdoor pleasures and sports
of all seasons as freely as those indi-
viduals who own vast country seats.
From this viewpoint does the presi-
dent enjoy his membership In the
country clubs of the capital and at
Princeton or Cornish. They provide
the means for indul gence of his favor
lite form Of recreation and exercise
This is a striking example Of his gen.
eral attitude toward all clubs.
Before coming to Washington he
has Joined the Cosmos and University
clubs. He is also member of the
National Press club, having joined
some years back.
The University club, of the capital,
Is a comparatively young institution
having been founded only about ten
years ago. William Howard Taft was
its first president. It's object is to
unite university men and college
graduates for the promotion of

Jennings Bryan. former Secretary

George B. Cortelyou, Champ Clark
and Charles w. Eliot, formerly Of
Harvard, are among It's prominent
members.
The Cosmos club is worthy of inter
est from another angle. Organized in
1878 It has grown in prestige until II
now occupies an enviable place
among clubs of similar object II ia
one of the few, outside of university
organizations. which restrict their
membership to men of certain distinc-
ton OF education.
The building occupied by the Co.'S
mos club has figured prominently In
the annals of early American history
Mrs. Dolly" Madison lived In II from
1887 to 1s49, and Gen. George B. Nc
Clellan occupied II as his quarters I'm
1861, after the battle of Bull Run.
Mr.. Wilson joined the National
Press club year before he was nom
mated as president of the United
States. He was proposed for mem.
bership by Thomas Nelson Page, and
was listed as an author Of Trenton.

in which to cultivate a taste for the
social intercourse provided by mod
ern club life.
However, he does not shun clubs;
he accepts membership In them, IL
he chooses, and avails himself of the
privileges they extend when he so de-
sires. His activity In Washington
club life has been confined entirely
to the use OF the links of the coun-
try clubs which he has joined when
he plays golf.
A member of four of these clubs
the Chevy Chase. the Washington
Country, the Washington Suburban
and the Columbia, he has been active
in his membership in only the latter
three. He uses their courses day aft
er day He does not like to play golf
to gallery. Rather, he likes to slip
away unheralded to play his game, far
from the ever-watchful public eye.
One of his favorites. the Columbia
Country club, is only few years old
Near Chevy Chase lake, and covering
1873 acres Of beautiful rolling country,
skirted with thick woodlands, It Is
one of the best equipped country
clubs In Amreica
When the president uses it's golf
course which Is one Of the most diff
cult In the south, he arrives with two
automobiles and three secret service
men. He Is dressed ready for the
game, and as soon as he removes his
coat makes straight across the
grounds for the caddy house. One of
the secret service men follows his
game and the other two remain at the
club house, awaiting him.
The president has never yet en-
tered the club house, even for a show
er bath. At first, when he started in
to use this course, he would cut off
and play only half way around, but
now he negotiates Is holes, and his
game is gradually improving. Many
United States senators play golf at
Columbia, notably OGorman, Cum
minis, Hitchcock. Bristow and Town
send.
Chevy Chase club, just beyond the
border of the capital, Is the mecca
for all OF Washington's prominent
folk. It's membership list is bullying
with the names of notables from all
over the world. 1t is pre-eminent as a

CIRCUIT COURT ENDS
In DEPARTMENT One

The 20 days session of the Circuit
Court of this county in Department
Number closed last night with the re.
turn of a verdict by the jury in the
case of B. 0, Shucking against E. M.
Young, in which the plaintiff recovered
damages in the extent of $3.50 for the
failure of the defendant to abide by the
terms of hop contract. One of the
subjects of much controversy in this
case was small symbol on the contract
after the figures 25,000 The plaintiff
held that this meant pounds and the
defendants attorneys claimed that il
could mean nothing but "Number. :"
Expert testimony on the part Of num-
erous stenographers and business men
indicated that it was generally taken
as Number" when before figure
and pounds when after the figure.
The symbol in question is made of
two short parallel lines crossing two
other parallel lines at right angles. 1t
happens that this symbol means a
sharp in music and it is also used
by children on rainy days to play a
game called tit, tat toe, three in
unabridged was invoked and a large
dictionary brought into court and
shown to the jurymen and court re-
porter. Webster, seemed, to hold that
the symbol was used before a
! figure to indicate number" but il
seems that Webster was silent on its
after effects. When used in hop con.
tract, however, the jury seemed to con-
slider that it could mean little else than
pounds, especially when the word
"bales' was marked out.
Attorneys j. A. Carson and Oscar
Hayter, for the defense, attempted to
show that the contract would not hold
on several grounds but the Jury held
that the contract was good for nearly
the full amount asked for The suit
was brought on account of the non.
delivery Of $4,000 something's - with
a small double cross after it which was
taken to mean pounds, Of hops az q con.
/ tract price Of IA cents per pound. This
was in the fall of 1913 when hons M
the time Of delivery were selling fol
~ cents per pound, Mr.. Shuckinp
brought suit for $2,250 which was Tho
difference between $4,000 pounds Of
hops at Ia cents and at 90 cents. Tn,
jury awarded him verdict of damage,
in this sum minus 5000, or 81 $50.
