Their Golf and Years Are. Reasons

THERE are two main physical reasons, why
the "triumvirae' has slipped in public favor. 1t is
true that averaged just II for the last year
and that Braid and Taylor just fraction more per

But it is also true that in the News of the World
tourney qualifying round this the biggest open
next to the championship all three of these honor laden
golfers failed qualify. 1t failure that worked
both ways.

Know their wartime lay off from thrilling contests of the

Can it be that the heavy hand of Time has been laid
upon them? Nardon they say is "stabbing his puts

Braid becoming less strong and more worrisome.

 between regulation dinner frock and a room gown as neg1igee.
 Prement in Paris and Grina ger here make a point of the perfectly corrected foundation, for the negligee that is an alternative, for the "hos- tess gown is in no wise intended to countenance lounging or carelessness.
 The first of the gowns illustrated is of blue changeable taffeta. The yoke sleeves and banding al the foot are of novelty lace with the design over is cut straight all around and takes shape only from the belt or sash which crosses and holds in the back.
 The second of the models is of pink chiffon, figured gray and pink chiffon and crepe de chine. First there is a skirt of the plain, accordion plaited. and round bodice of the crepe with a band of the figured chiffon at the top. Over this falls the crept in con- siderable fulness, caught in at the waistline with a crepe twist.

LOCAL PEOPLE BUY
 @ HEAVILY IN BONDS
Both German and French Bonds Being Bought For Speculation
 With Italian Bonds Leading.

The sale of German anarkr and French francs continues to be fairly heavy in this city it was stated this afternoon at one of the city's lead ing brokerage houses. The French bonds, however, are preferred by the majority of financial men as they are more likely to yield a quicker return, France not being so heavily in debt nor bonded so heavy as is Germany. French bonds of 1000 francs have been avera ging about s701a. The thousand franc bonds 4s and 5's of the 1916 and 1917 issue are selling at $55 for the As and S60-65 for the per cents. The majority of sales in this city at the brokerage houses are in French bonds. Due to the unsettled cond- ton of Germany's finances and her government, buying of marks is somewhat retarded, it being consid- cred more or less of a gamble, it was said.
 The New Britain National bank report heavy buying of the Italian lire, principally by the Italian people themselves. Some are buying for speculative purposes and some are taking advantage of the rate of ex- change which makes the American dollar worth $1.75 in Italy and are sending money home to their own people. \ large number of Italian investors through the local bank are buying 1000 lire bonds through the Italian Postal Savings banks. 10000 lire is the limit allowed by the Rome banks. One thousand lire is the limit at all others

 The state and local police. handi- capped by the snowed-in roads in the vicinity where the crime was committed, were necessarily slow in completing the investigation which led to the release of the nlen. The two men were discharged by the cor oner principally as the result of the testinl ony of a third party who was located today.
