He was, in fact, longer with his
wood shots than DR.. Willing
throughout the entire round. his
advantage thus gained from the
tee standing him in good stead
whenever he faltered on or near
the greens. This was particularly
evident on the fifth hole, where
Otiimet's greater length permitted
him to get a half in in spite of
vikings astonishing putt of TWEEN
ty-five yards.
The doctor, plugging along like
the fighter he is, finally drew level
with Ouimet at the tenth, where
the Boston amateur bunkered his
tee shot and got to Vikings

again on the twelfth, where Willing
also sought a trap off the tee and
never relinquished it. He played
the fourteenth. the longest on the
course. perfectly with a par 5

While his putting was not as SEN
sational as that he displayed yes
terday, Ouimet's game on the whole
was pretty to watch. He took three
puts on the second, sixth and
eighth holes, halving the first two
and losing the last. On the thir-
teenth he was wide with a seven
foot putt
Ouimet's putting touch deserted
him in the last two holes, while
Vikings approach putting was
deadly. On the seventeenth.
Ouimet pulled his drive into the
rough and shot his second into
a bunker, but came up with a re-
markable recovery, pitching to
within three feet of the hole. The
doctor was just off the eighteenth
green with his second, Clipped mp
to within a foot of the pin and
had splendid four.
At this point, he still was in the
running in view of the fact that
Ouimet was short with his second
and weak with his approach. But
Francis saved extra holes by
coming through in the pinch with
a five-foot putt, ending the match.

CULTURE OWED TO moncols
That That Race ereueht Civilization
70 America Thousands Of vsars
Ago. 70 Assertion.

1t was Mongols who brought civ
ilization to America. Men from the
region Of Burma and Indo- China
were in Mexico Is early as 10000
years ago, and probably much be-
fore that. The capacity for culture
Of these eastern races is great, and
they hold tenaciously to every ad-
vance. The buildings. art, beliefs,
and modes Of thought of prehistoric
America appear definitely Chinese.
Not only is this so, but much Of
the culture Of the Mayas and Toll
tees Of Yucatan, peoples in whom
there was much Mongol blood, is
superior to anything ever evolved
in China and rivals Gothic culture
in northern Europe. These nations
were overthrow about 800 A. ID.
by the Aztecs, an Apache-like breed
Of Indians, perhaps the most cruel
men who ever made a nation. The
Spanish finished the destruction.
What could be the cause Of Amer
lean prehistoric civilization? Biolo-
gists think they know. When
higher and lower race intermarry
it is always the higher which suffers
extinction, for the lower dominates
it in heredity three to one. Any
thing bred with Indian stock pro-
duces an Indian. As soon as the
good Mongol blood became en-
feebled the Mongol civilization
crumbled.- Chicago Tribune.

DEATH IS FEARED FROM FOREST FIRE
New Hampshire Timber Lands Being Swept By
 Flames

SANDWICH, N, H., July 1s.-An- other death was feared Sunday from the forest fires which since last Wednesday have been sweeping the heavily timbered mountains near here. If this fear Is realized, the death toll will be two. so far.
 A body found Saturday on trail between Flat and White Face noun tains was identified Sunday as that of Patrick O'Sullivan. a lumber camp blacksmith, It is believed he was suffocated by the pillows of smoke which poured down into the narrow valley between the two mountains.
 In one of O'Sullivan's pockets there was a note which read: John Gray died July 13." The note, 1t is thought, refers to John Gray. a mill hand, who has been missing for two days.
 The fire has burned over about 5000 acres of timberland in Water vile, Albany and Campton townships.
 Volunteer fire fighters from nu- merous towns for miles around have been working desperately to halt the flames, which, according to a report Sunday night are running north from Waterville.
