Divorce Suit.
Struck by Five Bullets, Woman
May Recover.

New York. Sept. 21.-F'rcderick

young daughter of a rich family, shot
her in the barn of her fath-r's sum-
mer home at Patchogue, l.. 1.

to the young husbands plea for
farewell interview with his wife, Jeni
escaped. leaving his hat in the barn.

ogue railroad crossing.
The Olsors brought Mrs. Jeni to ST.
VIncent's hospital. this city. The sur
seons expressed hope that she would
recover. The revolver Jeni used was
of such small caliber that the wounds
were less serious than might have
been expected.
Mrs, Alice Jeni is twenty-three years
old and is the mother of a 2-year-o1d
girl. Jeni IS said to have threatened
more than once this summer that he
would kill both her and the chile. if

TO PLAY NEWTON TEAM
Ideal Bakers Will Battle MiIeham's
Team Here October 1.

Having failed in their effort to get
a game with the Savages because most
of the players wish to leave the city
mediltely after the close of the

ers, Topeka's amateur champions,
have accepted the challenge of the
Newton Santa Fe team, and a game
will be played between the two teams
at Savage park Sunday, October 1, for
the amateur championship of the
state.
F. J. Mileham, manager of the New
ton team. issued a challenge to the
Bakers IN which he stated that his
team would play either at Newton or
in Topeka for the gate receipts or for
a $50 purse The management of the
Ideal team accepted the challenge and
chose Topeka as the battle ground.
"Sapho'' Saffel will pitch for the
Ideal Bakers and if his services can
be procured, York will pitch for the
Newton team. Bolivar Dick Kauf-
man, Western league pitcher and
member of the Savage staff for a

Stewart at Full.
In the absence of Perry, Stewart
was run as fullback, making most of
the passes from the position. Incl
dentally he made a few twenty or
thirty yard runs thru the freshman
line. Palmer was back on the center
job and in the scrimmage showed up
eXcellently, tearing thru Stenger, the
220-pound freshman center, and up
setting several plays before they had
a chance to start.
Tackle swings by Wilson and Logan
and end runs by Trull and Callahan
were used effectively several times in
the scrimmage. Champeny, in the
role of righthalf, looks as tho he was
due for the best year of his Washburn
career Sargent engineered the varsity
thru signal practice and the scrim-
mage.
Cox Drop Kicker
In place kicking both Wilson and
Logan showed up well. Howard Cox
made some good drop kicks in kicking
practice and leaves the suggestion that
there might be a possibility for Wash

From the way that old alumni and

A HARD ROAD UP
"Chick" Evans Had to Work
Hard for Golf Fame.
Few Years Ago He Was Joke in
Big Tournaments.
BY FRANK G. MENKE.

New York, Sept 21.-'Chick' Evans
stands out today as the most striking
example of what a man can accom-
plish who has courage and patience,
who believes in himself and never
ceases trying to reach his go, l.
The Chicago golfer holds the ma
tional open and the national amateur
championships. 1t is the first time
any player has worn both crowns at
the same time. And that "Chick"
should do it makes the feat all the
more remarkable.
Eight years ago the golfing
world first became cognizant of the
existence of Charles Evans. jr He en-
tered one of the tournaments, played
well IN his first attempt but failed to
win. Year after year he has entered
the championship battles, and each
year. until now, he has been beaten
Evans attempts to gain the title sew
eral years ago began to excite consid-
era BILE comment. The experts agreed
that he was a powerful driver and
that he was better than the average
with mis- long shot irons but they
laughed at his attempts at putting.
There was cause for a hit of giggling,
tco because Evans until year or two
ago, was a miserable player when on
the green.
Was Once Ridiculed.
Chick became known as A.so-
Ran Eve ans.
The ridicuIe heaped upon Evans
hurt him. OF an extremely sensitive
nature he never could become cali
loused to the joshing. to the good ma
tured sneers. The constant beating
he got in his attempts to win the
championship also hit him hard.
Ninety-nine men out of hundred
would have quit long ago: would have
dropped into obscurity rather than
suffer longer the sings and arrows OF
spoofing golfers.
But Evans was made of different
stuff He fought on; never lost the
full confidence in. himself. He rec
ognized his weakness on the green
and he spent days and days in better
ing his putting. Slowly he improved,
and that satisfied him. even tho other
felix's told him that no matter how
well he could putt in practice he would
flivver in the critical moments of
big match.

would again start well only to crack"
