that in few instances has that ever

in THE Naughty Wife which was
presented at the Strand theatre last
night by capable company, who took
their parts almost as naturally as il
they were going through the ordinary

MS early rs the seventeenth century,

Ray to Play at Lido.

AS this in all likelihood will be the
last appearance of the famous British
team in the near metropolitan district
there no doubt will be big outpouring
OF the golfing legions to-day TO see Ted
Ray and Harry Vardon perform at Mas
sau Country Club against Walter Hagen
and Jim Maiden. Tomorrow Ted and
Harry hold forth at Tuxedo, but that.
again, Is just the lease little bit out of
the beaten track. With the latter match
Vardon probably will bring his tour to
a close. However, Ray still has little
work to do, the holder Of the American
open championship having agreed to
meet George Mclean, late Of Great Neck
and now Of Grassy Sprain, over the links
Of the Lido Beach Club on the after
noon of election day. beginning at
o'clock.
1t had been hoped that both Vardon
and Ray would be induced to play ON
that day. Business will prevent Vardon
from appearing. but 1t will be good news
to the entire clan that Ray has been
engaged for the contest as during the
recent tournament at Lido many of the
contestants and members of the gallery
expressed hope that before they LEFT
for home on November G. the famous
British professional pair would be IN
duced to show what they could do over
the links.

METROPOLITAN PRO-
Famous Golfer Signs Three
Year Contract With New
Pelham Country Club
by KERR N. PETRIE.

In the fifteen years or more that he
has been in the United States Jim
Barnes has entered the golf tournaments
and championships from clubs all the
way from Philadelphia to the Pacific
coast. He has been a Tacoma pro.
Philadelphia pro. from Colorado Springs
and St. Louis in turn, but up to date
he has no. given the metropolis the
honor OF including him among its stall
warts of the links. However during the
last summer Barnes has been thinking
and thinking hard, thinking at times
loud out 1t is all very well to be here
or there upon the golfing map, but after
all there is no place for man who
wants TO be up and doing like little old
New York.
That was the decision at which Jim
arrived this year. He felt that, after
all. the metropolitan district Is the
centre OF all golflng activity. Jim Just
came to the conclusion that after all
his place was in New York, or some
where close by, and now he is to have
his wish. for he has been signed to a
three year contract by the Pelham
Country Club, which is building fine
course under the direction of Devereux
Emmett, with a location that makes IL
one of the most accessible organizations
of it's kind In the metropolitan district
on the Boston road at Pelham and no
more than fifteen miles from New York
Pelham Country Club expects to nave
the new circuit ready for play early next
season. The property extends to ia
acres and the course will have a back
tee length of 6.465 yards, with some
unusually interesting holes. The off,
GERS of the club are. NJ. ID. Rogers. presi-
dent: Alfred =. Walker, vice president:
William 3. Randolph, treasurer and
Edmund f. Sinclair, secretary.
Members to Hold stock.
The membership will be limited to
300. the members being required to hold
twenty shares of stock each at the
par value of 800. This at least will be
the basis on which the first 200 mem
bers will be admitted. The last 100
will be required to pay in proportion
to the increased valuation of the prop
erty. as well as having to pay In adj
vance for their stock. The Initiation
fee and annual dues will be 800 each.
While there is difference between
the two halves of the course of more
than 400 yards, no doubt the topogra ply
will be found to have taken care Of
this seeming glaring discrepancy. Out
going, two of the holes measure over
500 yards and while there is no hole
on the inward journey that quite COM
pares with these there are on the last
leg four that are 400 yards and over.

MONTREAL. Oct. 2s.-Expiaining that
he was unable even II he so desired to
carry out such gigantic undertaking
as the fixing" Of the worlds baseball
series of 1919 owing to lack OF funds.
Abe Attell, former pugilist. gave out a
statement here to-day announcing his
intention of going to Chicago to tell the
Grand Jury all he knows OF the arrange
ments made to have the games thrown
Attelrs statement follows:
THE Chicago players received $50, 900
or $4,000. Where did it come from !?
At the time OF the worlds series / was
broke. Five days before 1 sold my
wife's platinum and gold wedding ring
for S125 to a man in Chicago.
when I went to New York city to
borrow money / was given the informa-
ton about the series by Hal Chase and
Bill Burns. / first met Burns In Phila-
delphia, where I was watching a double
header with. Cincinnati. At this game
he and q prize fighter named Mohawk
had Chase throw four games to Phla-
delphia. and I myself lost $4,000 At
that time there was a boy on the field
betting for Chase and Burns. The boys
father kept the hotel where Burns and
Chase and all the players were staying.
Burns had been told that I was
friend of Arnold Rothstein. and after
the game he came to me and told me
that II he had known who I was he
would't have let me down. He added
that some time he would see that / got

ut was because Of this that when

AT the time of a certain shooting
scrape In New York last year L was in
the room. Everybody knew who shot
the two policemen. After the shooting
everybody was in an uproar, and the
man who did the shooting said he
thought they were holdup men. He told
Inspector Henry not to get excited
and he told the two policemen that
were hurt that he would look after
them and give them enough, so that
they should not want for anything.
Consequently. in court afterward the
testimony of the police against this in
dividual was laughable. They eased
down on him and never told what they
had been offered.

would keep his mouth shut and on my
lawyers advice l came to Canada. 1t

back to Chicago anyway. even II 1t is

encounter. Although De Foe weighed
only 127 pounos TO 140A by Brady. the
Minnesota boxer outclassed his man in
boxing and hitting and apparently could
have scored a knockout any time he
pleased. De Foe punished Brady Sc
verely and ioored the Syracusan three
times. but failed to stop him. 1t seemed
as though De Foe missed numerous op-
portunities to send over a decisive blow
when Brady was in trouble 1t was
transparent In the last few rounds that
De Foe was not making a genuine effort
to stop his opponent. De Foe naturally
got the decision.
