Chick Evans DeploreS Fires

pute the injury done to golfers feel

In the Chicago district alone l recall
the burning of clubhouses at Ex-
moor, Skokie, Westward Ho and Chi
cago Golf. | was present at the Chi
cago Golf Club fire, which came just
before the national championship was
to be PLAYED over the course 1t was
the prettiest blaze imaginable, be-
cause there were no means close at
hand to check it. This'is true of al
most all golf clubhouse fires, for the
average links is too far out in the
country for speedy service from the
fire department.
TOO much emphasis can not be
1 placed upon the great risks of fire
at golf clubs. OF course nearly all
golf clubhouses are insured. although
rates in the country usually are pref
ty high, but no insurance money can
really replace the clubs of the mem
bers.
No doubt it is much cheaper at the
time to build pretty wooden houses
than substantial fireproof ones, but il
the cheaper course must be followed
every reasonable precaution should be
taken to avoid fire. As golf club
houses are generallw low structures.
there is usually no loss of life. and
for that we are truly thankful. but 7
can not look upon the loss of ones
clubs as much short of a tragedy.
All of the golf clubs. however that
have suffered the visitation of fire
have profted by their loss and from
the ashes of Homewood. Skokie. Elk

Greco-Turkish war is not to be feared
according to Rustum Bey, the new Turk
ish Ambassador to the United States
because Of the Greek navy.
Rumors of impending trouble between
Greece and Turkey have grown from thu
weakness in economical conditions fr
Greece. he said. caused by the exodus OF
the Turkish population from Macedonis
and other provinces. Turks living in thess
districts claim to have suffered such
'cruelties that they could not remain
longer among the Greeks, and In conse.
quence the regions have suffered greatly
from their departure.
To prompt the return Of the Turks,
the Greeks are said to have inaugurated
vigorous campaign under cover of re-
ports Of massacars and outrages cal
culated to terrorize the Greeks In Turkey
and arouse external sympathy, declares
Rustum Bey. Greek colonies that have
existed under Turkish rule for peaceful
Centuries. are the objects of this proselyt-
ing campaign.
Rustum Bey characterized all of these
rumors az faisehoods and part OF the
plan to repopulate the Greek domains
The consequent Ill feeling cannot result

DIVE IN SHALLOW WATER
BREAKS MANS NECK
John F. Hanley Lies at Point of Death
in Casualty Hospital as Re-
suit of Plunge.

Diving into eighteen inches of water at
Chesapeake Beach-late yesterday after
noon. John F. Hanley, twenty-three years
old. q plumber. Of 1235 Oates street north
east, broke his neck. Last night physi-
clans at Casualty Hospital said he could
not live. although he was conscious and
ignorant Of the nature and extent Of his
injury.
The young man. who is the son of
Michael ]. Hanley. a shipping clerk, went
out on the pier which extends from the
beach until he came to a point at which
Il seemed to him the water was deep
enough for diving. His mother, sister.
and brother were watching him on shore
when he made the fatal plunge.
1t was apparent at once to the watch
ers on shore that something unexpected
had happened, and q scream from Mrs.
Hanley directed the attention of other
bathers to the spot where only Hanley's
legs could be seen sticking out of the
water. Ina moment he was hauled out.
unconscious and covered with mud, while
his head wabbled in q fashion that told
plainly that his neck was broken. After
hrst hid treatment by the Beach phy.
sician, Hanley was placed on a train
which brought him and the members of
his family to Washington. At the Cas-
ualty Hospital DR.. Woodward. one Of
the internes took charge of him. He
later regained consciousness, but was
not told that his neck was broken. He
was paralyxed from the seventh rib down.
but Il win not be possible for the phy-
sicians to determine the exact extent
Of his injury until an x-ray examination
ha6 been made today.

AND HE STOLE IN LIKE :
A THIEF IN THE NIGHT
But When He Went Out He Carried
Away Fifty Feet of Garden Hose
from Fourth Police Station.

The police say-if one is permitted to
use a classic. IL somewhat timeworn
phrase-that the thief who operated in
E street southwest last night must be
wholly lacking in regard for the tender
sensIbilities of decent people as well as
utterly unmindful of the ethics Of his
own profession.
This thief-he was not even a burglar
stole through street when the shades
of night were falling and there had come
a pause in the days occupation SO that
the flies on the sergeant's desk in the
Fourth precinct station house were fold
ing their wSss in sleep-to repeat this
thief skunk a\,ng E street until he came
to the Fourth precinct station house.
There he paused long enough to loot
the police station under the very noses
of the sleeping flies on the sergeant's S
desk, and having thus violated all the
well known gentlemen's agreements, he
disappeared around the corner of Four
and-a-half street,
Now the entire force OF Mai. Sylves-
ter's finest police department is looking
for No. As garden hose and the sidewalk
and neat lawn of the Fourth precinct
station will have to go unwatered for
awhile. Fifty feet of garden hose that
thief took with him and he didn't over
