DRIVE GOLFERS
OUT OF RANKS
Bar Three Champions From
Participating in Amateur
Contests


New York, Jan. 13. - Several golf
ers of national reputation will be
driven from amateur ranks by the ap-
plication of the new definition of anna
teurs approved early to-day at the an
nual meeting of the United States Golf
Association. The meeting also sus-
tained the rule under which Francis
Ouimet Paul Tewksbury and j. Fl.
Sullivan, Jr., of the Woodland (Mass.)
Golf Club were deprived of their anna
teur standing.
A motion for a direct vote on the
action of the executive committee in
giving notice to the disqualified golfers
and calling upon the Woodland club
to withdraw their names from the
handicap list of the Massachusetts,
Golf Association was ruled out of or
der after the vote on the main ques-
ton had shown that Ouimet's friends
were well in the minority.
Upheld Report
After a spirited debate lasting long
after midnight, the delegates by a vote
of so to IL upheld a report of the eX-
ecutiVe committee sharply restricting
the status of an amateur. The rule
as amended and adopted makes ineli-
gible as an amateur the players "en-
gaglng In business connected with the
game of golf wherein ones usefulness
or profits arise because of skill or
prominence in the game of golf" The
Interpretation put upon this is that it

CHAPTER XVIII.
The Uttermost Instant.

It was the day following Scull's de-
parture. David walked swiftly, deep
into the l~eutiess forest, and strobe
along Little Indian Creek, gurgling
under its ice, to the spot where Toin-
cite O'Bannon had first smiled at him
in the April noon. 1t vas there his
new life had begun. And there, kneel-
ing by the rocky ledge, he prayed, as
at Il shrine.
An end Of all things had come to
David. His long quest was over and
the surf of his passion had spent itself
in foam. Had 1t been worth while to
forgive? All that he had lived for was
torn from him. Toinette would know
that she had judged him unjustly; but
would that knowledge bring back what
he had lost of her? He had been II
hot-tempered fool, he had insulted her
beyond forgiving. The breach had
widened beyond bridging. He looked
across the gulf that lay between him
and Toinette and felt the bitterness of
ruined hopes. He thrust his hand in
to his hunting shirt and drew forth
the dueling pistol he had taken from
Blackford's room. For a long while he
stood looking at 1t in silence.
A light step rustled the dead leaves
underfoot and he turned quickly. Toln-
cite stood beside him, a joyous smile
on her face.

ed him astonishingly.
He stared at her as though ut a mes
senger from the skies. Her silver
laughter rang out as 1t had in days
gone by.

smiled. 81" am no angel-fm

David did not believe her denial
never believed 1t.
Father sent me for you. He's go
ing to give a great dinner at the tav-
ern and you're to sit in the place of
honor. Come, you mustn't keep your
cook waiting"
And she held out her hand.
But David did not stir.

stepped quickly out.
A cry of fear escaped her as she saw

breast, and instead there arose u feel

through him. His eyes were hot with
the bitter envy of one who looks into

and light and warmth stand firm
against the desolate world without, and
who knows himself a homeless wan
derer on the earth. When he spoke, 1t
was in Il changed voice:
Are you this woman's husband?"
"We were married a month ago"
said Scull. He seemed almost to have
forgotten Dayid's presence and his
hand caressed the girls cheek with u
strange gentleness.
David looked at them for a moment
in silence, then drew a deep breath.
He had made up his mind. He was
glad that he could be merciful, to an
other, though life might be mer-
ciful to him. He thrust the pistol back
into the bosom of his hunting shirt
and his hand fell upon the knot of
ribbon Toinette had given him.
