Golfer Drives Ball
From Tee Into CUP

PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 30.-Driving
from the tee a distance of 100 yards
and making hole No. II In one stroke.
Col. James J.. Hall gave the members
of the Bon Air Country Club something
10 talk about.
The shot is destined to become his
toric in Bon Air annals. 1t is the kind
of event that may never happen again
in the history of the club.
Colonel Hall was playing with Judge
John NJ. Patterson. He was driving for
the eleventh hole: Taking his swing and
following squarely through he met the
ball Iairly. and sent 1t whirlipg through
the air. high and far. 1t was an, unde-
niably good drive, going straight for
the green.
But the finish of the stroke was amaz-
Ing. To the astonishment OF Colonel
Hall. Judge Patterson. and a number
of onlookersl the ball sailed fairly into
the cup as II II had been dropped there
by human hand 1t did not hit the pin
or the sides OF the cup.
After the colonel had been congratu-
lated for mis- notable performance he
went quietly ahead and beat the Judge
by a score OF 96-100.

WHITE ,LEGHORNS IN
 FIRST PLACE AT SToRRS.
Pen is Owned by A. P. Robinson of = Calverton. -z ...

In the fourth week of the laying contest att Srorrs q New York pen of White Leghorns owned by 4. P. Rob- inson of Calverton wan first place with a margin of five eggs over the next best pen. These 10 bullets laid 4c eggs for the week or a yield cf nearly 50 per cent. Aside from this one pen the others that contested for honorable mention were all exceedingly close Cloves & Sullivan's pen of Buff Wyan- dottes from Hartford and. F. A. Ball lards White Leghorns from Chestnut Hill, Pa, tied for second place with 35 eggs each. Two Connecticut Tens of Leghorns owned by A B. Hall of Mesereau of West Wilmington tied for third place with g eggs each. Obed G. Knights White Orpingtons from Bridgeton, R.1, and J. o. LeFevre's Leghorns from New Platz, N. T., tied with 33 eggs each. Tse total for all pens amounted to o-1 ,524 eggs.
 Some of the bullets more partieu- larly the lighter breeds, are molting, which means, of course, that these in- dVidualS can be expected to. lay only a few if any eggs during the next sev- eral weeks. This question of molting has long been problem for the man agement of the contest because it. seems hard to avoid or control. The Leghorns, possibly on account Of their highly nervous temperament, seem to be more susceptible to the rather rad ical changes that are necessary when they are transported from the place where they were born and bred and en tered in a laying competition. The complete change ill environment ap- pears in many cases to have an ad- verse effect. As an offset to this un- toward circumstance it may be said that for the most part the birds now sent to contests seem to possess more vfgor and vitality than those that rlr- ticipated a few years ago, and if a ben has an abundance of pep" she can stand up and perform, perhaps ever mott and lay while her weaker sister is being coddled and nursed.
