Sinking a Tragedy

 Sinking a Tragedy
 The passing of the sailing ship Our Son was one of the sentimental tragedies Of the lakes, although her crew was rescued without a single loss of life. The two-master had weathered countless storms since 1875, and her captain, Fred Nelson. had followed the lure of smacking canvas for 55 years.
 The steamer William Nelson stood by and took off the crew of seven as the Our Son slowly settled into the water. Before she was aband- oned her canvas was cut. To have left her with sails hopefully spread is not the tradition of the inland seas.
 Storm damage was not confined to the lakes. City and country suf- fered from the high winds, with broken windows, interrupted con- munication service, and crop losses
 Cold Hits Midwest
 Unreasonable cold was felt in the middlewest, coming only a few hours after the same territory had complained of temperatures high in the eighties. Snow and killing frost were reported in Wisconsin and North Dakota.

comebacks in the annals of the anna teur championship. Big Charley Seaver, 19 years old of Los Angeles, was five up over Romans after 21 holes of their 36 hole match had been played. Romans was never level until the 35th hole and not up until the 36th, where he ended the match.
 Jones semi-fnal assignment was much easier He won from Jess SWeetser, nine up and eight to play in a match in which he never was down, giving display of skill that, judged by the Jones brand Of golf ranged from brilliancy to mcdiocrity and back again.
 Bob started like whirlwind against the former American and British amateur champion, winning four of the first five holes and halv- ing the other. However, his butter began to act bad, and he frittered the lead almost away. After 14 holes he was only one up, but from then on the situation underwent a decided change.
 A birdie at the 18th, and pars at the 17th and 18th had cna bled the triple champion again to establish a four up lead at the intermission. In the afternoon Jones. the master, was himself. He stepped the first nine holes in 35 strokes, a shot better than par. bagging birdies at the 23rd, 2Jth and 27th. all with good butts and ending the match at the 2Sth with a birdie three from ten inches. His last shot was within less than a foot of an eagle tvo
 Puttcr Wouldn't Work
 Homans could not putt a lick" as he expressed it. in his morning round while the robust Californian, while setting no new putting rec ords, was the stoader on the greens.
 The putting touch returned to Homans between the rounds and the north and south champion played par golf straight through the sec ond phase of the battle. He went over par on one hole, where he tried to use a spoon in a trap, but a birdie offset this lapse and all the rest of the holes were played p the figures the card calls perfect.
 Three shots stood out in the great fight Wagcd by the Englewood boy to win the match before the holes ran out. He drove in the rough at the 23rd, when he was four down. @nd sent his second to trap at the green while Scavcr was on the putting surface.
 It seemed that he could have no l easonable expectation of getting a half from the sand but he did bet ter, He sent his ball to within a few feet of the cup and when young Charley took three butts, Romans was only three down. He lost the next hole to go four down again. where, if it hadn't been for the fine nlDlick shot at the previous hole he would have been six down.
 Plays Beautiful NihIick
 Again at the sand his niblick served him well in pinch. He had Whittled his deficit down to two and fiN" holes remained to be played. The Sotch saying two mp and five to play never won a match" may have cheercd him on. and he need cd encouragement when his drive found rough and his second ploughed its way deep into a sand

 Lester eyed Mr. Lechett and loved with the idea Of wiplnG that small. efficient smile of his face.
 What you didn't make clear to me. Nr. Broom. is that We are deal ing with a lady who is taking care not 10 be found. That's a very diff r,rent thing from shadowing q rsrtv who isn't aware ot if.
