By Associated Pres,


 Mulrfleld, Scotland June 11.--After haVlng had the British amateur golf championship laurels all but within his grasp, Robert A. Gardner of Chicago today went down to defeat when he lost to Cyril Folly of the Oxford Uni- Ferslty team in the finals after a hard fought and sensational match, which was all square at the thirty sixth hole and necessitated the playing of an ex- tra hole.
 The match was a battle royal from the start but at the end of the first round Gardner was up and bade fair to fulfill the predictions of experts that he would capture the champion ship.
 In the second round however. Tolly forged ahead and was 8 up on his op- ponent with only 4 to play. Gardner fought doggedly and amidst intense excitement on the part of the specta- tors made it all square at the thirty sixth, only to lose the extra hole.
 Public interest in the match was at the highest pitch.
 This was the second time in the his- tory of the championship that an American had reached the finals. Not since Walter J. Travis beat Edward Blackwell for the championship in 1904 had Yankee got so far as Gard ner, despite repeated invasions from across the water. Fully 5000 persons witnessed the match. Walter Hagen

and Jim Barnes the American pro- fessionals. who yesterday defeated two English professionals in a match at Croydon, England. travelled all night to be present.
 Folly is only 21 years old and this was the first time he had reached a championship final.
 Gardner was very accurate with his long approach butts today, but failed badly with some of the short ones. He led at the end of the first round, but the turning point came at the fifth and sixth holes of the second half. both of which he threw away on the green. He thereby lost the lead, and for a few holes seemed to lose his nerve. But when the card became down with to go he played with renewed deter imitation.
 Having temporary relapse in his putting, Folly was brought back to Dorime one and lost the home pole where he was first in the rushes and then in a bunker. Gardner put his tee shot to the thirty-seventh on the green, nine yards to the left of the pin, but Folly played a beauty only four yards short of the hole and got the putt after Gardner had laid his second a yard from the pin Gardner thus had a par three, but Folly won the hole in two and took the match.
 The loser received almost as great an ovation as the winner.

Death of We II Known Sportsman
 Proves BafflinS

New York, June 11-Mystery deep ened tonight in the death of Joseph Bowne Elwell, internationally known as an authority on whist and owner of racing stable, who was found un- conscious in his West Seventieth street home early today with a bullet wound in his head. He died foup hours later in hospital.
 The police admitted tonight it was ona Of the most baffling mysteries with which they have had to deal in long time. In an effort to deter mine whether MT. Elwell was mur- dered or committed suicide. his asso- ciates in the social and club life of the city were closely questioned by the police, who declined to reveal the re- suit of their investigation. The mys- tery was intensified by failure of the police to find the weapon with which MT. Elwell had been shot
 It became known tonight that Mir Elwell dined on the Ritz Carlton roof Thursday night with party of friends, who included MT. and Mrs. Walter Lewisohn and Miss Viola Kraus. Mrs. Lewisohn's sister. There were four others in the party. Leav- ms lHc uOlti' lHc party Wtul lO d midnight theatrical performance and about ? o'clock this morning MT. El- we'll bade goodby to the Lewisohns at Broadway and Forty-second street.
 They drove to their Fifth avenue home and Eiwell strolled in the direc- tion of Eighth avenue. Nothing more is known of his movements until his housekeeper, Mrs. Marie Larson, found him i7 the living room of his home at S:30 this no1 hing seated in an arm chair facing tho street window.
 4 postman delivered mail at 7.30 a. m., which the police say was taken by MT. Elwell. The circum stances indi- cate that the shooting took place in the period that elapsed between the mail delivery and the arrival of his housekecper.
 The police are convinced robbery was not the motive for the crime, as M". Elwells money and jewelry were found undisturped. There were no sings of struggle. The housekeeper said the doors were locked and the windows bore TO signs of having been forced.

THE OUIJA BOARD

the mind and move the small board to the letters. partly consciously. partly unconsciously. So the sitter makes the muscles of the fingers obey the thought and spell out the words expressed through the little muscles of the fingers instead of through those involved in speech. Various explana- ticns have been offered for this phe- nomenon, but most of these explana- tions are mere words without scienti- fife meaning. The most absurd explana- tion of all is that of our physical re- search friends. who attribute the &C., tion of the ouija board to the influence of an extraneous personality. They claim that a disembodied spirit is speaking through tho subjects using the ouija board as a medium.
 Let the ouija board if you will, en. tertain you and interest you, by re- vealing to you your unconscious mind. but expect through it no communica. tion with worlds unknown. If that unconscious mind is the storehouse for the conscious, how important it is that 1t should be treated alright. so that we may be able to draw on it's resources in times of need
