AMERICAN AMATEURS
ENTERING BRITISH GOLF

New York, March 27.-The invasion OF
American amateurs is arousing great in
terest among British golfers according to
George Low, the professional, who has
just returned from visit to England.
The English players, says Mr. Low. have
a high regard for the ability of Jerome
D. Travers. the four-time winner of the
American title. and there also exists a
keen desire to see Francis Ouimet. Gable
dispatches from London today tell of the
defeat of Travers and Fred Herreshoff
at Hoylake by Captain Nichols in a
three ball match Captain Nichols re-
turned card of rs. beating Herreshoff
by five up and Travers by four up.

DEFENCE OF HIS
SON BY AUGUST
BELMONTINN.Y.
DIVORCE SUIT

New York, March 27.-August Bel
mont took the stand today to aid the
case of his son Raymond, who is be-
ing sued for separation by Ethel Lor-
raine Belmont, a woman well known
in the Tenderloin. Mr.. Belmont testi-
fled that his son had spent $13.s36
since his marriage in November, 1912.
Edward Mooney, counsel for young
Belmont's wife, kept up such a rapid
fire of questions that Mr.. Belmont ask
ed the court TO protect him. The
father admitted that he recently had
sent S250O to Sir Bacheunard, whom
his son is visiting in England, and
explained that he sent the money I'M
der an arrangement made when Ray
mond left New York. Previous test-
mony for young Belmont had tended
to show that he had spent mis- fortune
and having no reason to expect help
from his father, was in a position to
pay only meagre alimony. His law
yers contend that out of $4,000 he
has only $4,000 left.
In reply to a question Mr.. Belmont
said emphatically that there was moth
ing the matter with his sons intellect.
He said he had been in the habit of
paying all of Raysnond's bills. but that
the amounts paid out were charged up
to Raymond's account. He conceded
that the young man owned two polo
ponies valued at $500 and $500 re-
speetively.
Well said Mooney, there's two
thousand dollars anyhow"
The father added that Raymond still
maintained his kennels, paying a keep
er $50 a month.
Eighty dollars a month from an in
come of 1912 a year is significant your
honor" said Mooney.
Mr. Belmont denied that he ever told
his son that no matter what happened
he would always be provided with an
allowance of $4,000 a year.

"OUR NATIONAL PARKS"
Nat Breham's Closing Lecture One of
Best of Series.

Americans who think that they must
go abroad to see beautiful scenery
would at once realize their mistake if
they could but see the pictures that
Nat NJ. Brigham showed to Il large
ana appreciative audience Friday eve
ming at the Green Street Methodist
church. His lecture upon "Our Ma
tional Parks" held the close atten-
ton of every member of the audience
and vas greeted with much applause.
These parks of ours-and there are
IL of them besides Yellowstone-have
come into existance automatically.
Many Of them have no guardians,
showing to some extent that the for
estry department is not in full SYM
patty with the parks. The network
of parks in our Western states con-
tains wonder upon wonders and is
viewed yearly by thousands of tourists.
The park in our country which first
comes to our mind is Yellowstone be-
cause of its unexcelled beauties and
It's remarkable size. This park was dis
covered in 1907 and comprises 1872
square miles of territory. AS the tour
list enters this park he reads upon
the gate For the benefit and enjoy
ment Of the people," Such is his greet
ing and as he travels for miles through
this land of geysers he can realize to
n small extent what a real source of
benefit and enjoyment this park is to
the American people. The Grand Can
yon with it's massive walls fills the
tourist with awe and admiration
Mr.. Brigham dwelt also at some
length upon the other parks not SO
well known to the people of this sec
ton of the country, as Reinier park
and Glazier park. Every picture shown
in the lecture was of beauty and the
lecture itself was of the greatest inter

Promise End of
Steel Suit Soon

New York, March 27.-The close of
the hearings in the government dis
solution suit against the United States
Steel Corporation at an early date was
promised today by the announcement
that the government would withdraw
all matter pertaining to the decision
of the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion in the so-called tap line cases.
Attorneys for the corporation declar-
ed yesterday that If this evidences
was introduced. they would combat it
with testimony which might take six
months to hear. The government, it is
supposed, has finished it's case and
hearing of the testimony for the cor
poration is drawing to an end. Near
ly two years has been taken up by
the hearings so far.

Common Sense
About Colds
Prevent Cold if You can-But if it
Does Get You-Stop 1t.

People of the far North Countries
where there isn't much civilization
never have Colds
They live in the open--get plenty of
fresh air and exercise-and as result
do not know what "a cold" is
Most Of us in these milder climates
are careless about our health
We live in overheated houses and
close, stuffy Offices
We sleep in badly ventilated rooms
Our skin and the membranes of the
throat and nose become over-sensitive.
We are easy marks for the invading
army of cold germs
The first unusual exposure brings
the chills-
We begin to sneeze and cough and
shiver-
And then--if we don't look out-seri-
Gus results follow
This first shiyer is the danger signal
1T must not be neglected.
A few doses of Hills Cascara Bro
mide Quinine Tablets taken at once
will invariably save days or possibly
weeks of suffering
Hills Cascara Bromide Quinine Tab
lets are an old remedy
1t is thoroughly standard-has no
unpleasant effects-just tones up the
system and helps nature to DESTROY
and carry off the deadly germs
II has been used for Is years and is
sold by druggists everywhere on a
money back basis
1t is guaranteed to cure a cold in
twenty-four hours and la grippe in
three days.
It can be taken with perfect safety
as it Is entirely harmless.
There ought always to be a box OF

All druggists sell them-the cost Is
e cents.

Discharge of 1000

Boston, March 27.-The application
law prohibiting the employment of
children under 16 years more than 8
hours day resulted in the discharge
during the first year of 1000 out OF
between 25,000 and 10000 employees, ac-
cording to a special report filed with

Federal Government to Probe
Proposed Voyage of Chief Sam

Portland, Me-, March 27.-Investiga-
ton of the mystery ship Curityba, now
at anchor in this port and her owner.
Chief SAM" will be made by feder-
al authorities, and the initial steps in
the governments action were taken
this morning when Collector of the
Port Willis T. Emmons sent word to
Chief Sam that his presence was
desired at the custom house. The mes
sage was delivered to the owner of
the Curityba this forenoon and the
head of the Akin Trading Co, Limit
ed, has promised to come ashore and
see the collector at 10 A. NJ, Satur-
day.
The investigation is the result of
many conflicting stories told by Chief
Sam" or men from the Curityba and
while there is, no proof that laws
have been violated the federal officials
intend to learn what Chief Sam" in
tends to do and to have some knowl-
edge of the proposed trip to the At
r:can Gold Coast.
Chief Customs Inspector Samuel E.
Somers boarded the Curityba in the
lower harbor this forenoon. He was
pleasantly received by "Chief Sam"
and the leader of the strange back
home" movement readily agreed to
appear before Collector Emmons and
Assistant District Attorney Arthur
Chapman.
The government will insist that all
navigation laws regarding the equip
ment be fulfilled before the ship sails
and it is known that a number of
Sandfordites from the Shiloh colony at
Durham are now working on board the
Curityba.
Since the arrival here of the Curity-
ba many of the Negroes have visited
Shiloh and have been baptized by the
leaders of the Holy Ghost and Us So
ciety at the Hilltop.
Sandfordites Leave Coronet
Shortly after Chief Customs Inspec-
tor Samuel E. Somers had visited the
Curityba this forenoon a large boat
load of Sandfordites came ashore from
the Holy Ghost and Us Society yacht
Coronet at anchor in the upper har-
Dor. The party included 10 men and
seven women and 1t Is believed that
they have gone back to Shiloh. They
have not been on board the Coronet

5000 years before Nebuchadnezzar.
The foundation stone of Naram-Sin
was also found by Nabonidus, father
of Belshazzar (B. C. $3.50, when he
restored the temple of Sippara. The
Nebucharnezzar cylinder was found
near Nippur. on the Euphrates.
Another cylinder found by Arabs at
the same site, bears an inscription of
Naram- Sin, and is probably one of the
actual foundation stones of the tenn
pie of Lugal-Marada in Murad. Mar
am-Sin was the ancient builder of
Babylon and perhaps the greatest
builder of all history.
The inscription says that Naram-
Sin subduee nine hostile armies in a
year and carried three of their kings

ord says: Whoever alters this in u,

Regard Executive Order as a
Model Employers Liability Law

Washington, March 27.-What is re-
garded as a model employers liabili-
ty law is embodied in an executive or
der made public today providing for
the adjustment of claims, arising out
of personal injuries to employees on the
Panama canal and the Panama Rail-
road. The order is the result of more
than a years study of the subject by
Secretayr Garrison. Major P. c. Boggs,
chief of the canal commission office
and the law officers of the war depart
ment, and is based upon a similar or
der issued by President Taft March
3, 1913. For lack of funds, il was found
necessary to withdraw the original
order which was also regarded as de-
fective in practical features. The new
order. while framed with special ref
erence to the conditions in the canal
zone, is regarded as sufficiently COM
prehensive to serve as a pattern for
legislative action In the various states.
