Valparaiso, lnQ.-W men TWO OIL InlS
city's best known citizens were ar
rested for drunkenness following the
Armistice day celebration here Mon
day, November IL, the best element
in the community was disguised, but
not surprised. The surprise came
when the two WORTHLESS were reported
to have -resorted to the O'Donnellian
name substitution trick to conceal
their identities. The characters in
this CDR. Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde"
drama are alleged to be Grant Crum-
packer, well known attorney and
sometimes special judge, and Leroy
M. Pierce, wealthy insurance broker.
Members of the Charles Pratt post
of the American Legion, who with the
merchants of this city, staged the
splendid -Armistice day program, with
other good citizens of the city, are
taking a keen interest in the "Jekyn-
Hyde" case. They point out that Sam
Richards, a ditch digger, was arrest
ed on the same day for the same Of
tense as that for which Crumpacker
and Pierce were taken into custody,
and that he was fined $3.50.
The attorney and the broker were
arrested at Gooleyis establishment,
taken to the Jail and given talking
to" by the chief of police, and order
ed home. Crumpacker didn't want to
go home. He went back to Gooley's.
Citizens who felt that the law
should be no respecter of persons and
that if the ditch digger was fined the
lawyer and the broker should also
pay the penalty, made representations
to the police department which result
ed in charges being filed against
them.
The affidavits upon which the COM
plants were issued, charged Grant
>Crumpacker and Leroy M. Pierce
with being "drunk and disorderly."
When these affidavits were return
ed to the court of Justice of the
Peace Louderbeck, it was discovered
that the names of - Crumpacker and
Pierce had been erased from them
and the aliases "Gordon Morgan" and
George Doe" substituted.
A complaint against William Goo
ley, proprietor of the resort where
the local "highlights were arrested,
was. filed and later returned under the
alias "Harry Smith,"
: It is alleged that the Prosecuting
Attorney instructed Justice of the
Peace Louderbeek not to issue war
rants for the three men, as he said
they would voluntarily appear in per-
son for hearing Wednesday afternoon
at 800 o'clock. They did not appear.

the Prosecuting Attorney that if they

handled his club was revelation.
He did not. appear to put much en-
ergy into the stroke, but his ball
travelled in a course that was as
straight as an arrow.
In Chile, we find that at Conception
there is a fine little course that is
situated in a beautiful rolling coun-
try. This course is one of the best
in Chile, and the members of the
club take great pride in showing it
to visitors.
In Brazil are many courses in diff
ferent sections. There is an excel
lent one just outside of Rio janet
70. while at Sac Paulo, the town that
so earnestly supports all forms of
athletics, there is not only q well
appointed clubhouse, but links, which
are maintained in a state that shows
the members are real 24-karat golf
enthusiasts. The rivalry between
these two towns is carried to an ex-
tent that makes a match game be-
tween the foremost players of each
organization an event worth travel
ing many miles to witness.
In another section to the south Of
us are other golf courses that are
played upon every day during the
season. One of the most interesting
is south of Antofagasta, in the noun
tains of Patrerillos. There is a pri-
vate course for the employees of the
Andes Copper Mining Company, and
after the men have completed their
work for the day they settle. to their
partial, If not entire satisfaction, the
questions of this or that style of golf.

lish and foreign colony, and here one

flores, while outside Of Panama City
there is course where Gov. Morrow
and his associates play in the early
hours of the day. and those who have
had the pleasure of playing on this
course say that 1t compares most ia
vorably with some of the crack
courses farther north.
We take steamer and stop, first, at
Oruro, Bolivia, where we put in a
few hours on the course! We must
play rather carefully. for we are not
yet accustomed to the elevation. To
reach this spot we have climbed
1900 feet and our wind is not all
that it should be.
Having seen this "c1ose-to-the-
skies course, we turn our steps to-
ward Chile, and in a short time we
come to Iquique,- where the course is
all sand and the ground rules are
that you can pick up your ball and
tee 1T off on any part of the course.
Here we find that 1t is not such a
hard matter to get good drive, but
that the ball will not roll, so we
have to change the method of our
game and adapt ourselves to condi-
tions as we find them. When we come
to the greens, however, we find that
they are in excellent shape, though
small. and they remind one of the
greens at Pinehurst, N. c.
From this point we jump to Lima,
Peru. and near the race track, which
is ten-minute journey from the city,
we find an excellent course, one that
has native Bermuda and carpet
grasses. and while we can get some-
what of roll, yet we do not get
the long roll that one enjoys at one

Stopping Up a Leak.

r EAKS in the body Of a vessel are
naturally very dangerous, and va
rious means for remedying such dam
ages have been devised, one Of the
most successful being an invention
by the French Admiral Pallu de la
Barriere.
This device consists of brass rod,
to the one end of which strong,
forged-iron plate is attached by means
of hinge, in such manner that it
can stand parallel or in q right angle
to the rod. The latter is pushed
through the leak with the iron plate
first and parallel to it. and is then
turned half ways, bringing the plate
strong pressure of the infiowing
water will press the iron tightly
against the outside of the ship right
over the hole, thus stopping the influx
to such an extent that the further
work is comparatively easy.
A cellulose stopper is next pushed
over the rod into the hole. and over
that a strong steel washer, which is
screwed down tightly by means Of a
nut, the rod being threaded. AS the
cellulose is soft and will expand
when it becomes moist, even the
smallest cracks Of the leak will thus
be stopped UP.
The simplicity OF the device allows
remarkably quick work. A leak of
seven and one-half inches in diameter.
for instance, can be closed up abso-
lutely in thirty-five seconds. while IL
the leak is long and narrow, several
shoppers must be screwed right next
to each other, which naturally takes
much longer. OF course. the shoppers
can be used only for comparatively
small damages and are manufactured
only in sizes 6, 8 and 13 inches in
diameter, set Of these being packed
in q small case. -.

ny JAMES A. BUCHANAN.

T Is common for a golfer to say
that he was UP in the air and
that his game was not up to the
standard that he maintained for
many months, and when We hear
devotee of the ancient and honorable
game express himself as being up in
the air we take 1t as a figure of
speech and pay no attention to
whether he was driving off a tee at
sea level or at an elevation of few
hundred feet. Down in the Americas.
however, they literally play their
game of golf up in the air, and in
some cases decidedly so, for in one
spot they tee off at an elevation that
is 1850 feet above sea level, and
when they mako a drive that goes 800
yards they give the matter but little
consideration, for at that altitude 1t
is not an extremely difficult feat. In
fact, for man to hit the ball at all
cleanly and get less than $50 yards
would be looked upon almost as a
dubbed shot.
Those who hear for the first time
OF some of our neighbors to the south
making 800 or $50 yard drives need
not suppose that the cables report
ing the matches have been sent by a
correspondent who saw double. 1t
Is merely an average drive for good

the Americas like to be members of
good golf clubs. In fact, many of the
clubs have waiting lists of consider
able size.
"One Of the many good points of
golf in this section OF the world is
the beneficial effect it has had on the
young women. Yes, in this respect I
must include other sports. but golf
principally is responsible for the
emancipation Of the young women of
that region.
They have achieved healthfulness
that is the despair of many of the
budding medicos. &
"The caddies are among the best
that I have ever seen. They are
bright, they are courteous and their
eyesight is really marvellous. They
appear to have the faculty Of imme-
diately locating a ball, no matter how
far it may go into the rough.

ing the past year or so.
4 I Santiago there are sand greens,
"A but these are kept in splendid
condition, for a large oil company
has works near at hand. and some
of the employees are enthusiasts. so
you can putt on n green that has been
thoroughly oiled. Unless you are
used to putting on this sort of
green. you will give it tap that
will send you off into the rough. In
one way it develops delicacy of
touch that is beneficial. You get
rather much of the feel of the club,
and ball" The writer saw a man
