Women Golfers
Start Match Play
BY CHICK KENNY

Match play started bright and
early this morning in quest of
the Women's District of Column
bia golf championship for 1887.
The affair got underway at Chevy
Chase this morning with six flights
of sweet sixteen each teeing off for
honor and glory among the fair
sex golfing set. The seventh
flight of four tee off tomorrow
morning.
Leading the battle against Old
Lady Par over the swanky fairways
of Chevy Chase Club are the top
flight lady golfers of the District.
Mrs. Betty Meckley, who had a
Strangle-hold on most of the titles
in this vicinity last year, will be
defending her title in this. an
other golfing affair. Yesterday in
the qualifying round, Mrs. Neck
ley barged through with an SO,
despite the handicap of an in
jured back, which has marred her
play through the present tourna-
ment season, She tees off with
Mrs. B. C. Hartig, of Columbia, in
the first match to get underway
With Helen Dettweiler on deck
for play, it is foregone conclusion
that this Congressional miss will
be up, in, and around the finals
which will be staged Friday after
noon. Miss Dettweiler won the
Maryland State title last week, and
from the sterling form she showed
against the classy array of entries
at Five Farms. is an odds on
choice to cop the trophy.
Mrs. Bishop Hill, medalist yes
terday, is regarded as a keen COM
petitor and will be a tough per-
former throughout the play. Her
score of 81 to top the qualifying
procession places her among the
ring leaders. But you can rest
assured that she will have plenty
of opposition all the way down
the line. This morning she met
Mrs. George Hussey of the Army
and Navy Country Club.
Other likely looking performers
who bid fair to topple Mrs. Neck
ley and give woe to Mrs. Bishop
Hill and Helen Dettweiler are
Mrs. Walter Stokes of Indian
Spring, winner of the Mrs. Frank
Roger Keefer Cup; Ellen Kincaid
of Congressional, winner of the
Phyllis Keller Memorial Invita-
ton; Elizabeth Houghton of
Chevy Chase. runner-up in the
Maryland State tourney last
week; Mrs. Charlotte Stern, Army
and Navy, and other top flight
performers.

Trade RumorS
Involve Griffs
By FRANK BUCK" O'NEILL


The Washington Griffs, the
Philadelphia Athletics, the Cincin-
natl Reds and the Philadelphia
Phillies left Charleston last night
with the cheers of an appreciative
public ringing in their ears.
Thanks to the united efforts of
the four major league baseball
clubs, the HomecreSt Sanitorium
for tubercular children in Charles
ton, w. Va, made approximately
SIS, 900 in one of the few inter
league double-headers in all his
tory.
The gross receipts of the game
Appropriated $22,500, and with
advertising expenses, the travel
ing expenses of the four clubs and
all other items deducted, hand
some profit was made.
Henderson L. PEBBLES, moving
spirit of this great baseball day,
was profuse in his thanks to the
participating ball clubs. He tele-
graphed his sincere thanks to
President Clark C. Griffith and
lavished expressions of gratitude
on all hands.
Never did a more representa-
tive group of citizens attend a pub
lie function, and that is exactly
what the double-header was in
every respect.
Business was set aside in the
State capitol and the halls of
municipal government as united
Charleston marched across the
banks of the beautiful KanaWha
River to the little ball park that
snuggleS under the sugar loaf
hills.
There were rumors throughout
the afternoon that Frank Hogan
might be traded to the Boston
Red Sox for Fred Ostermueller
and cash. But the usual denials
greeted this.
Trading time expires at mid
night tonight, and something may
be done, in fact, something must
be done if the Griffs are going to
make fight for the first division.
According to fairly authentic
sources. Joe Cascarella, right
handler of the Griffs, will move to
another American League team
before midnight tonight, the trad
ing deadline. Current rumorS
placed Cascarella with one of the
contending clubs, and if gossip
around the club house is right, he
may even land with the New York
Yankees.
There is a possibility too. that
Fred Sington, the powerful out
fielder of the locals will move
along. Don't be surprised if Fred
goes to the White Sox, who are
willing to give Sington a chance
to prove his proves as a hitter.
Undoubtedly there will be an
nouncementS before tomorrow,
and one guess is as good as
The boys who know
something are waiting for develop
mentS.

NEW YORK, June 5.-They say
there's a big three-club deal be-
tween Pittsburgh, Cincinnati and
Chicago on the rotisserie or hot
plate today, involving Pitcher
Paul Derringer. This is strictly
exclusive, the only thing missing
being where he's to go and who
going elsewhere on the rest of it.
Outside of that. though, we're
right on top of the story.
They also say that Pitcher Fred
Ostermueller is on his way to the
Yankees from the Boston Red SoX
in another deal, the exact nature
of which is not disclosed, owing
I'm certain-to the fact that it's
author wouldn't think of breaking
a confidence.
I also note that the Camilli-
from Philadelphia-to-the Giants
movement has been exhumed by
one for the local pillars of truth,
this time with something of a
flourish. We're to take their Mr..
Camilli and Catcher Bill Atwood
and they're to have our Johnny
Mccarthy and Catch Harry Dan
ming. They even have the Phila-
delphia business managers wife
not denying the deal.
DeadIine Tonight
In other words, the clock is gal
Looping on toward midnight and
the major league deadline on
player trades, at which time in
variably we all have ourselves a
seizure. Some of it is possible,
much is improbable and the rest
is downright legend. The aver
age major league manager doesn't
make headline" trades, because,
by that time, the opposition has
him by the necktie and he has to
give away too much to get what
he wants.
AS a matter of fact, though, all
of the deals cited are distinct pos
Sibilities, notably Derringer and
even the Camilli angle, although
I'm convinced that certain reti-
cences on the part of the business
managers wife are likely to be of
no outstanding significance. The
only thing that ties in is that, by
this time, the PhillieS usually need
pay roll money and the Giants
can't win the pennant without
first baseman. AS for the Reds,
they've won only II ball games
with Derringer, so they can't do
worse without him.
There was also some hocus-
pocus yesterday about Rogers
Hornsby trying to peddle Catcher
Rollie HemSley to Detroit, the
story being that HornSby "over-
played his hand" in asking for
Catcher Ray Hayworth, Outfielder
White and Cash. If he asked for
it wasn't his hand he
overplayed; it must have been his
hat. The guy sustained a broken
arm only three days ago.

joey Archibald, the little can

Archibald, who has been work.

and discovered some glazing weak

From Lou Gevinson's camp
came an optimistic report. Gevin-

way he likes it-long range, with
a hit-and-run. Lou has been

M0NIAhA'S PROSPECTS
EXCELLENT FOR 1888
As 1887 Fades, a Feeling Prevails
Worst Has Happened" Things
Sure To Be Better.

Helena, Dec. 29-Montana's pros
poets for 1898 are excellent: AS
1887 YEARLY slides into the limbo
of years, people of the treasure
state turn their faces to another
milestone of life with revived hope,
new courage and confidence that
the worst has happened" Things
are sure to be better.
And while 1887 brought its share
Of troubles, Of disasters and losses.
it also brought its share OF pleas
ures, Of successes, Of Joys and OF
progress.
The fertile soil of Montana val
leys and plains, nurtured by the
skillfulS hands of M~ontana's farm
ers, produced a tidy bit of wealth
for all residents. Agricultural
crops for the year were worth $685.
63S,o00, according TO- Jay G: Dia-
mond, federal crop. statistician.
This is SO per cent more than the
1886 value of all agriculture.
But 1898 promises to do better
by Montana. Estimates of winter
wheat yield for the coming season
is for a harvest one-fifth larger
than the average for the past rive
years. These estimates, based upon
scientific measurements Of soil
moisture: have in the past proved
uncannily accurate. They indicate
an acreage yield of 1877 bushels,
compared to a 'five-year average OF
10 bushels.
While northeast and central
Montana were hard hit by droath.
early summer rains in southeast
Montana greatly improved range
conditions. There has been steady
replenishment of livestock herds
over the entire area this fall and
winter and with favorable eondi-
tions now prevailing. stockmen
look forward to 1888 with reason
able assurance of a prosperous
year-the best in a decade.

Meaning of Astrology

Astrology is the science" OF
reading the fate of human beings in
the stars. Astrology has a very
long history; the first attempts 20
read the future by this means were
made by the Babylonians, and
thence spread to India and China.
1t reached Europe in the Middle
ages, and became so prevalent that.
in the Fifteenth century, no court
was complete without its a%strologer.
Most of the monarchs of those days
had the stars read before they start
ed upon any plan or fight. says Lon
don Answers Magazine. Astrology
must not be confused with astrono-
my, which is the science and study
of the heavenly bodies and their re-
lation to the earth. This also was
a subject studied by the ancient
races, and as early as the Seventh
century B. c., students began to
separate the true science of astron-
omy from the pseudo-science of as
trology.

Black Widow Spider Is
More Deadly Than Snake,


Old Mother Nature INDUCES in

must have been in one Of her
Humorous" moods when she Great
ed the Black Widow spider. This
merry widow of the insect world
is one Of the nastiest of all the
jcreepy-crawlies-a murderous and
dangerous female.
; Not only does she kill and eat her
husband when she has no further
use for him. but she can kill a man
in fact, she has sent many to
their graves, asserts a writer in
!Pearson's London Weekly.
! The Black Widow is as tough as
a gangster, too, and if you ever
meet her, the only sure method Of
putting her out Of action is to smash
her with something hard, like a
iswatter or the back Of a shovel.
; Drop for drop, the Black Widows
venom is more deadly than that Of
the rattlesnake.
J Owing to its larger size, the rattle
snake injects much more poison
than the Black Widow when it
strikes, and, therefore, its death
rate is higher-it kills about one in
three. The Black Widow kills about
one in twenty, but she is more com
mon, and bites more people, so that.
in the course of a year, the Black
Widow causes more human deaths
than does the rattlesnake.

African antelopes. known as kip

a position in which their feet re-
semble those of a b%allerina. They
rank among the smallest and most
interesting Of antelopes, standing
less than two feet at the shoulder.
Extremely nimble, they climb up
ward in the mountains with great
speed, agility and sureness of foot,
while in downward leaps they safe
ly negotiate gaps Of thirty feet from
one rocky ledge to another, stead
led upon landing by their cup
shaped "non-skid" hoofs.

Payment of road and poor taxes
cannot be demanded by county

General H. J. Free6ourn ruled this
