team Of II. w. Perrin and G. A. Crump
gave Raymond Ouimet and J. II. Sullivan,
Jr. a rare battle that was not ended In
favor OF the Bostonians until the winning
putt had been run down on the 18th hole.
In the feature match, Oulmet and
Brown VS. Fownes and Ormiston, the for
mer went into the lead at the fourth hole
at the turn; the margin had been raised
to three holes. and at the 10th to four.
Still another win for Massachusetts fol-
lowed on the short 18th, and they were
dormie. The Keystoners postponed de-
feat for at least one more hole, by reg
istering a win on the 18th, but II was all

the half or a win, Oulmet was not found

the Southern California W. c. T. U.
Mr.. Taft, who is hale and hearty in
his ninetieth year, is probably the
Oldest man who ever sat on a grand

member Of the committee on juvenile
court delinquency, county hospital and
farm which ascertained that from rs to
90 per cent Of OF the inmates OF these
institutions we're there because OF al
coholic Liquors. The report Of the
grand jury was as follows: With refer

The time is rapidly approaching

the state Of Missouri to be in possess

out the sources from which vastly
larger amounts Of pure water can be
obtained, and we will have to observe
