COLUMBIA CLUB, Md, July %
Among many others there was one
striking feature of the ancient game
upon display in the recent open cham
plonship, which calls to mind again
the terrific nerve strain and its rela-
ton to proper play. This feature
shows that golf is something far more
than matter Of mere stroke making
ability. We refer here to the case of
Joe Kirkwood Kirkwood, on Wednes-
day, gave one of his famous exhibi-
tions. He could make a golf ball sit
up and talk. He played every stroke
in the game right handed an left
handed. He played ten balls in sue
ccssion as swiftly as he could hit each
one, planting them all within few
feet of the same spot. He showed his
ability to drop cut shot on a pocket
handkerchief His mastery over golf
hall was something wonderful to be-
hold.
You begin to figure Immediately how
il was that such a golfer could ever
take as many as seventy strokes for
single round. Then take the case
Of Kirkwood qualifying. The Austria
Ian is golfer of brains, nerve and
courage. He is extremely well built,
around six feet tall, weighing 1870
pounds; but he mad come Is 900 miles
to play in this championship. 1t was
no longer matter of stroke making.
Ii his qualifying round he was out in
3G-36 for the hard part of the jour
ney. He knew 40 would land him
safely in for his last nine, but when
h. slipped on a stroke or two the ter
rife pressure began to tell upon a
courageous golfer, who was master Of
every club in the bag.
Stroke after stroke got away, until

Sir Barton Tops List
For Saratoga Handicap

The weights for the Saratoga Handi-
cap, to be run on the opening day at
the Spa, were announced yesterday, and
it is worthy of note that Sir Barton has
been placed at the top of the list at
1876 pounds, or two pounds more than
Purchase. Sir Barton is in the stud and
there is no chance of his going to the
pust, but there is a certainty now that
Purchase will be a starter if he con-
tinues as we'll as he has shown in the
last week.
Mad Halter is next at 1872 pounds,
while the evergreen gelding ,Extermi-
nator is in at 1870. John P. Grier and
Audacious are ranked as almost equal,
with the Whitney four-year having
the call.
