THE OMAHA DA1LT JiEE. SUNDAY, AUGUST U, 1001. I' MANY PLAYERS ON THE LINKS Cool Wcftthir Acu ai Mrkd Etlmnln to Game of Qolf. NUMEROUS MATCHES ON AT COUNTRY CLUB Content Aiculnst Iltltid lloKf).

Oolf at the Country club hag taken a now I hold on life and the great expanse of ifrcen I is iioiicu uauy wun gany ncaigni nguros In pursuit of tho Itttlu guttapercha balls. During tho fierce heat of the last few weeks tho turf lay withered and brown and few were, tho hardy golfers who cared to leave the broad Bhndy veranda of the club' house, Tho recent rains, however, have r turned tho eighty acres Into a field of fresh, closely mown verdure, as fair a glimpse of hill and hollow as ono might hope to find. A a result challenge are flying thick nd fast, caddlca aro putting In overtime and tho novice Is Increasing his collection of clubs. Yesterday thcro wan an exciting match against a blind bogey whoso score i for tho eighteen hplos was an Indetcrtnl- ( Bate flguro between eight and ninety. Each i player made his own handicap and posted It before starting the mulch. The Idea found high favor and there were a goodly number of entries. For next Saturday a Scotch fourtome Is on tho card, a medal play, hnndlcnp event, with a caddlo hag, golf club and other prizes to tempt the covetous. On the suc ceeding Saturday a match will bo called with tbo Idea of bulling tho market for clceks and tholr species. It will be a "cast teel" competition, no wooden clubs being allowed at any stngo of tho game. This also Is a handicap event with an entrance fee of ono ball. The winner will tako 60 per cent of tho stake. 30 and 20 per cent go Ing to tho second and third money. The ilnal Saturday In tho month Is given over to tho Cartan cup competition. This trophy Is played for once a month, the winner on three successive occasions to come Into permanent possession. Tho women members aro making a hard iToco for supremacy and tbo niakuup of tho team Is nuw In tho way of being decided. The qualifying match will be held on Wednesday, when two fours will bo set opart. Thoo who qualify for tho first four lire only subject to challenge by members of tho second four. Those In tht socond four must compete with any woman mem ber of tho club who considers herself a likely candldnto for tho honor. DfuiHer of n .Merc (ilniicc. In his advlco to young players Walter Camp points out tho unwisdom of a weak attempt to absorb a champion's form. "Many on amateur has wandered far astray," ho points out, "becouso he has taken to tho study of the professional. He selects, for Instance, a man who has gradu ated as a caddy In tho old. country, who has thon taken to the profession of golf for a living nnd has' finally gravitated to tho states. This man has played golf until It Is second nature to him. He can hit tho ball, no matter how he "laces" at It. Ho can pick It up. cut It, do tricks with It In a thousand ways. There Is consequently llttlo In common between him nnd tho amateur who plays two or three times a week and thon only when tho weather la fine, nut tho nraa'tcur tries to copy some pedal peculiarity of form of his Idol and as a natural result only succeeds In making his own form odd and his game unsatis factory. Thero ore so many players who have gone through this experience that It la unnecessary to dllato upon It." .NEW SPORTS FOR GUATEMALA Jlaoe Trnrk nnd 11 op pa Arena Take I'lnees of Hull Itlnic nml "" Cock Pit. A well known horseman now n Guate mala wrltos that tho American colony In that Spanish republic has changed tho na tional sports from tho bull ring nnd tho cock pit to tho race track and tho roped arena.

Horses are never used hero for anything by light driving and racing. "Hoxlng was Introduced hero by some Kngllih tourists who came to Lake Imbed with the Idea of establishing a health resort near that beautiful body of water, which far excels any of Switzerland's famous lakes. Tho natives saw a wealth of sport In the game of hit and get away and natives girls were at once commissioned to make boxing gloves. The hair of all sorts of animals was uC(j a'n finCRl e d rushwood, woven as close as the silk, served as a covering. The gloves were correct as to size, shape and weight, but tho rushwood covers made them Instrument of terrible torture and the humano Americans compelled them to uso skins tor the purpose. Tho only explana tion for tho use of tho rushwood was th s fact that beautiful designs nnd lucky 'signs' could ho worked Into tho gloves, factors far more Important than the safety of tho boxers. Hundreds of tbo natives have de veloped Into clever boxers and bouts be tween favorites are features at every festi val." AMATEURS ARE ENTERPRISING Athletic Assoclntlnn Ilns n Rood Ten nis Tournament nnd I'lnii to Invntle the drlillron. Tho Amateur Athletic association, with a brief club life of a fow months behind It, linn already produced a following of clever sportsmen which would do credit to an or ganization of years' standing. It has or ganized good teams In golf, base ball and tennis and Is only waiting for September to put a foot ball team Into the field made up of college veterans and others who havo no wish to lot cobwebs gather on honors of bygone days. In tennis tho association virtually had tho field to Itself and has enlisted In Its numbers the best players In tho state. Aus tin, Young, Hnskoll, Caldwell and a dozen others took down their racquet cases, felt the strings solicitously to seo what damago time and moths might have accomplished and went upon the courts. The association has bIx courts, with a probability of two more, affording ample room. Practlco dias been maintained every night, therefore, and tbo players arc getting back a good portion of their old-tlmo form. Tho tourney last week was called with no Important purpose other than to establish a handicap relationship for the players. Kvcry man went from scratch and tho weak lings were speedily weeded out to await a day when eye might be more certain nnd hand more strong. Tho play waa not bril liant except In Isolated Instances, but n growing steadiness was apparent which rolls up the points. In the preliminary round Friday Sherwood went against Knox, both sets being bitterly contested. Knox secured tho long end of scores of 4, lovo, and G 3 In tho two sets, but Sherwood's steady play brought him final victory, 64 and 97. Mclntyro de feated Tabor In ovenly contested sets, 73 nnd 64. Caldwell won from Hill In an other close contest not Indicated In the score. The seta wcro 63 and 6 plus 2, Other scores were au follows: Doorly de feated Pollard, default; Young defeated Lamalre, C 2, 63; Austin defeated Hen net, 63, 62; Towlo defeated Ladouclcr, 62, 64; Potter defeated Tukey, 7 C, 62. The drawings for tho second round yes terday were as follows: Sherwood against Doorly; Young against Mclntyre; Austin against Towlo; Caldwell against Potter. In tho semi-finals the winner of tho Shcrwood Doorly match plays tho winner of tho Young-Mclntyro match. The outcome of tho match will establish Informally tho club champion nnd put him in poBscsslon of a silver mounted racquet.

About seventy-five players woro present from various cities In Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, Missouri and Kansas, combining In a marked degTeo clever whlBt play and good fellowship. Several social events wero arranged for tho players by tho society people of Council IHurta and tho ovent was an unqualified success.

NEW CAME ON BOWLING FLOOR "Rubbirneck," Recently lariated in New Ytrk, Appears in Omiha. ALLEYS ARE PUT IN SHAPE FOR NEW SEASON Floor Are Snndnnnereil and Oiled, the Treatment (ilvliiK Them n Sen soiled Kvrnues NeTer Possessed llefore. For tho bowler to whom tenpins Is dear above all other forms of the game the new fnd entitled "rubberneck" Is appealing with peculiar force. The gamo Is Intended as a hot weather substttuto for tenpins and Is played with small balls, tho great spheroids used In tenpins being looked upon as too bulky for a 100-degreo tempor al ure. "Kubborncck" was invented In New York during the torrid spell several weeks ago by a lazy tenplnner. Tho pins used aro turned with the weight much lower than tho ordinary article, the center of gravity allowing them frequently to keel over llko a thlrty-footor In a stiff breeze, without finally capsizing. On occasion several pins In a bunch may bo observed bobbing nbout llko a fisherman's cork to tho ag gravation of the man at tho top of tho alley. To Increase tho difficulties of tho "rub borneckcr" tho dead wood which falls In the alley frequently among tho other pins Is allowed to stay In place. The criticism Is advanced that such a rule Is an Impedi ment to skillful play, tho blunderer fre quently profiting where the adept meets adversity. Friends of tho gamo assert. howevor, that tho dead wood corresponds to hazards in tho game of golf and fur- nlehcs that clement of chanco without which no sport Is complete aud captivating. Tbo count In "rubberneck" is similar to that In tenpins. Three small balls aro used and strikes and spares are chalked up on the first two. I.ennue of .Velirnnkn Towns. Tho visit which Omaha bowlers paid to Dcs Moines In April has Inspired thorn to a combination of teams through this stato similar to tho successful leaguo In Iowa. At Des Molnctt tennis from Dubuque, Mar- ahalltown and various Iowa cltlis met with such mutual profit as regards form and good fellowship that Omaha players nt onco corresponded with Nebraska cities to the samo end. Ilcplles have been received from Grand Island, Columbus, Beatrice, nnd else where and an attempt will be mndo to or- gnnlzo In September. It Is the purpose to establish a state championship with n trophy attached. Tho city leoguo will contlnuo match ploy this winter ns Inst and teams aro picking out tholr men early In order to seruro the best materlul In advance of competition. in Importnnt match waa played on Friday night between tho German aggregation and All-America, In which probably tho ten most skillful bowlers In the city partici pated. I'lnnrs In Kxcelleut Condition. The slight pause In bowling enthusiasm during tho weeks of fierce heat has given tho different proprietors opportunity to thoroughly overhaul their alleys for tho new season. Bulgtng or depressed centers duo to lofting or warping havo been leve'ed Into lino nnd no bowler can Justly complain If his ball goes Into tho ruck before It reaches tho triangular collection of pins. Tho finishing touches are even now being put upon Clark's nlloys and tho Gate City floors aro as good as new. A newly pol ished floor may bo said to be oven batter than new, as It will subsequently be less liable to warping nnd more disposed to con tlnuo as an absolutely horizontal plane. Scores nf the Week.

Tho Young Men's Christian association team also has beon In tho Hold for sovcral years and with other organizations and schools a good standard of play might bo established. An old champion of tho gamo writing to The Bee on tho subject remarks: "With tho Amateur Athletic association, the Young Men's Christian association, tho High school, Crclghton college and others, tho formntlon of n city leaguo Bhould not be difficult. Tho games, played at somo central point, would bo sure to draw crowds, and a suitable trophy being up for the championship could not fall to promoto a healthy rivalry. Thero would ho nn difficulty in fllndlng a suitable board of umpires and referees, for Omaha has a largo number of old foot ball players. It Is not too early to think of this matter, as tho tlmo rapidly approaches whon tho squads from which teams aro chosen should go Into training. As a preliminary to tho formation of such a league, a meeting should bo held In tho near future of rep resentatives from all thoso institutions In terested In seeing such n leaguo formed. The time Is ripe, tho players aro horo, en thusiasm will not be Incklng. Lot somoono tako tho initiative." BAN JOHNSON'S NEW PLANS Provide for Anierlenn l.enmie Tennis In .tv York nml St. I.onls Next Yenr. St. Louis Is to havo an American leaguo club next season, writes a Chlcngo corro ttpandent in tho Sporting News. Johnson has said so, nnd snld so emphatically. IIo further states: "Thero will bo no other club In St. Louis whon wo go there," al though exactly what ho means by thosu words Is moro than I can tell. I'orhaps ho means that thero will be no other club that counts for anything, although Tionovan's (I beg pardon, Hcllbroner's) club Is amount ing to a great deal In tho National leaguo raco Just nt present. New York Is nlso included In tho plans of tho American league. Tho magnates under Johnson aro sick and tired of McGraw, and It Is moro than probnblo tho Baltlmoro club will bo dropped, bag and baggage, next sea son. Cleveland probnbly will go, too, and with St. Louis and Now York In the circuit tho American league will have Just grounds to claim equality with tho National. That other Inroads on tho National leaguo players Is planned I do not bolleve. Somo of them who aro not entangled In thrco-year contracts may be engaged for next year, but for the rest tho American leaguo tenms will depend upon their procnt men and such new comers as they may develop to odd to their strength. Whether Johnson and his fellows havo do elded upon a location In Now York or not I cannot say. They havo secured a site In St. Louis In tno south sldo of town and prob ably will commence Improvements this fall. It Is said hero that Thomas Loftus will man ago the St. Louis American league team, but that, I believe, Is untrue. 1 think tho Clevoland club, probably strengthened by severnl players now engaged with tho Robl sons, will wear tho brown stockings of tho old St, Iuls association next year. In New York the problem that tho Ameri can leaguo faccB Is a mor" sorbins one. It Is potBlhlo the Amerind 'eaguo New York team will locate Its grounds across tho river In Weehawken.
