Golf has more than held Its own during ths iHot yesr. Thin has not been true to any gratifying extent In the west, which hit! ot the open championship, which ni held br Lawrence Anchterlonle, and haa now passed to Anderson; the Nstlnnnl. which waa held by IxmiIs James, and which haa reverted to Travla, and the intercol legiate championship, which waa held by Clarence Kuan, and which haa now passed to Frank O. Relnhart. The weat retains on championship. Mra. Bernard B. ltorne, a Miaa Resale Anthony, won the national rent for women. The 4nly western star to play ably for the weat In the big na tional event waa Bruce Bmlth, who put out Douglas, the Ions driver, and who lasted to the aeml-flnala. The amateur championship of the west waa won by Walter Enn, who won the coveted victory ofter a thirty-seven-hole final at Cleveland, the finals bring con tested with hla cousin, Clarence. As show ing the high grade of golfer In this con test It may be stated that Jamea, Byers .and Fredericks, three of the seml-flnallsts In the 1902 event, were participants. An other source of aatlafactlon to western golfers la found In the fact that the West ern Oolf association haa Increased In num bers and Influence. It now boasts of fifty-seven clubs, as against forty-flve at the beginning of the season. 'In this con nection the golfers in what may be termed the middle west, or rather, the transmls Isslppt golfers, feel especially gratified that their prowess has been demonstrated at the expense of the All-Chicago team, tha Transmlaalsslppl team having defeated the Western Oolf asaoclatlon team by 21 to- 10. Tha Chicago golfers can not get over the fact that they were defeated by "them westerners," and the Chicago papers con tinue to give considerable space to the de- Ire on tha part of the Chicago players to get even. In this connection one of the hlcago papers has the following: At present the parent organisation of golf In the United rotates Is composed of seven members, live from the east and two from Chicago. Considering the wonderful growth of the game in the south and west In recent years It would seem only fair that these sections of the country should be repre sented, and for this reaaon the executive committee would make a very popular move by Increasing ita number from seven to nine members, the new appnlntmenta to be credited to the Southern Golf association and the Transmlssisslppl association. The latter association has become quite a formidable factor in western goll In the last few seasons and It la only a' few weeks ago that a team made up from mem bers of the clubs composing it absolutely walked awav with a so-called representa tive Chicago team. The fact that the local representatives were not, ty any means, the best golfers belonging to the local clubs, should in no wav detract from the victory of the Trensmlssisslpnl men, who. beyond doubt, could have given the nest men we could muster the hardest kind of a tussle. In this connection, would It not be well to arange a return match with the Trans mlnslKelnnl association, to be clayed, say next June, In St. Louis, during the time that the Worlds fair takes place? The Incut nlsvers could leave for St. Louis Fri day night and spend the next couple of Oays golfing and signt-seeing ana gei uhck In time for business Monday. Perhaps the most 'disturbing clement In golf In the United State during the present year has been the discussion which has waged pro and con relative to the all-match-play system at the expense of tha qualifying round to which the golfers of tha United States had become familiar during the short reign of the game In this country. Ths all-match-play system was tested In the national and western championships ' and in ths representative tournament for tha Ravlnoaka cup at Onwentsla. And now tha differences of opinion which were in evidence at the beginning of tha Heaaon still continue to ba a sore spot. Borne of tha golfers assert that the all-match-play system haa been a boon to the game, while others are opposed to the elimination of tha qualifying round as strongly as ever. Tha tests are not conclusive as proving that the all-match-play system Is for the best, and until tha question Is settled there will not be that peace of mind among golfers that existed before the present controversy was gotten under way. of the two, and It Is upon such a test as hat that a golfer should receive hM rating Aa showing tha diversity of opinion ex Istlng upon this subject it may be stated that while In the United States attempts ara being made to abolish the qualifying round, in England, where all-match-play has always prevailed, authorities like Harold Hilton favor introducing the quali fying round. Probably the best scheme yet to receive a trial is the choice score system of Dr. J. O. McPherson of St. Andrews, whereby the thirty-two men whose "choice scores" I. ., best Individual hole figures for two stparate rounda con' tltutlng the qualifying score are paired at random, for 38-holo mutch rounds. It will alwaya remain true that the medal ' score Is the only Just and trile criterion of a golfer's ability. It Is equally true that a aingle round medal score should not be' taken an the Just criterion of golfer's ability. It Is not the phenomenal cores which are turned In once in a while by any given player which should de termlns that player's Just rank, but hU core card for the season, or for the entire tourney, should be deemed as the only lust basis upon which to determine ths golfing ability of that player.

Georse Hempl of the faculty of the University of Michi gan has recently submitted to an opera tion for the removal of his right eye by Dr. Fleming Carrow. The accident hap pened on the golf links. Standing well out of the line of fllht of any ball from the tee. Prof. !!"ml was fully thirty yards from H. O. Knbcork, who was at the tee for the purpose of driving. Mr. Babcock swung hrd, and his driver breaking, the head flew so hard at Prof. Hempl that he could not dodge and It struck him In the eye. No blame Is attached to the golfer whose broken stick caused the painful ac cident. Prof. Hempl Is an eminent teacher of philology and English lln (ill tlci. It Is thought that the promptness of the opera tion will result In the saving of the sight of the left eye. This accident and others of a similar nature revive the matter of golf ethics nd etiquette. There fire certain well established things in golf which are not Included in nor made a part of the rules as formulated by the United States Oolf association, which govern the various con tests held In the United States. Among these Is one which provides that the player who won the last hole shall retain the honor until he has lost a succeeding hole, and it Is also explicitly stated that no other player shall go even bo far as to make a tee until the player having, the honor has driven. Yet how often we see the spectacle of two and three and some times four tees being made simultaneously. There Is another little Item which Is quite generally disregarded, and that is that the player whose ball Is furthest from the hole, or whose ball Is "off," In golf par lance, shall shoot first after the drive. Then, too, none of the caddies are al lowed to step on the line of put to be made by the rltayer opposing the player for whom he may be caddylng. And It goes without saying that the opposing player will not step on or across the line of put to be made by his competitor. And neither is a player allowed to pat the ground behind his ball with his club, nor remove any obstacle, unless It la within a club's length, and he cannot even do that If It Is some growing substance. In a match contest of any kind it is entirely improper to ask any player how his game is pro gressing, or even to speak to him, unless the player in question first accosts tha other party. A well-defined knowledge and observance of the golf rules, together with other mat ters of etiquette that are generally ob served, would do much toward, making the game of golf mors enjoyable and Inviting. - - Glen View, at Chicago, has held the na tional amateur championship, which was won by Louis N.

The latter's victory In the recent national event at Wheaton gave the club the honor of being the first organisation in the west to attain this prominence. Harry Vardon, the world's greatest golfer.

GOSSIP FROM THE GRIDIRON Debate ai to Wes'.trn Championship Knot Ahead of tha Gia NEBRASKA'S CLAIM TO RECOGNITION Reeerd af the t'orafcaskere Darlag Last Tea or Three Tears Is Good aad Prospect af Besting Illi nois Is gpleadld. With the end cf the foot ball season less than two weeks away, the foot ball critics are now figuring on which will be the championship team, but with all their prognostications but little mention Is made of the University of Nebraska team. The record of the Cornhuskers for the last three or four years would seem to place them In a position where they should receive more consideration st the hands of-the foot ball critics. The team has lacked that spirit of devotion on the part of Its followers, both at Lincoln and elsewhere, which goe3 fur toward developing the proper college spirit which goes In to win or die, or do like the Spartans, come back on their swords. The members of the team have worked hard and have perfected what Is perhaps one of the best machines in the west Of course the writers on the eastern papers will pass the team up with scarcely any notice whateven until compelled to take cognizance of the fact that the trans- , mlsslsslppl states can produce as good an article of foot ball as any of the teams on the other side of the big stream. Booth has worked hard to get his men end the team In good condition, and there Is now every Indication that the Nebraska eleven Is now the strongest this side of the Mississippi with the possible exception of Minnesota. Owing to delayed Justice in the recogni tion of Nebraska's claims, every effort Is now bending toward the game with Illinois on Thanksgiving day. This game will be not merely a matter of local or state In terest, but will attract to It the attention of foot ball enthusiasts throushout the entire west. Since some' drastic measures seem to be the only method by which Ne braska can break into the "big" combine, every muscle will be trained to win the Thanksgiving contest with Illinois. It hi true this will have no direct bearing upon the championship of the middle west. As a matter of fact Nebraska Is not figured upon In this matter, but the fact neverthe- css remains that If Nebraska can score a Ignal victory In this contest It may serve the purpose of opening the eyes of the members of the big teams In other portions of the west to the fact that Nebraska Is entitled to a place In the "combine," and that the Cornhuskers should be riven a voice In Its transactions and be afforded an opportunity to book games with some of the star elevens, so that Nebraska's true relative merits as a foot ball team may be ascertained to the fittl and complete satlu factlon of Its supporters and adherents. fit Is a question whether the change In pen alty from losing the ball to losing twenty yards has not made players more willing to take the chances of being penalized for holdlrg. Certainly there has been a great deal of holding. When a team is on Its own thirty-yard line with the ball and loses twenty yards for holding, the penalty strikes the average onlooker as being pretty severe; yet any team would prefer to lose the dlstsnce In these circumstances than the ball. And this revives the question as to whether the players have Increased their powers and ability to get away quickly nnd to put their plays Into execu- D)iyn nil ii ii 1 M AnrU M THE, DREAD OF WINTER. during the first few moments of play and then at a certain stage of the game they have adopted the whirlwind tactics and literally swept the opposition off Its feet. In general It may be said that all the west ern teams are Improving in the matter of speed. George O'Nell.

More golfers spend the winter months In California than In any other state In the union. Tha climate Is delightful and there ta$an abundance of first-class golf courses. Fred Bartsch, who has been tha Instructor at the Country club, left last night for Chicago, where he will act as instructor at the Homewood club next year. Who his successor at the Country club will ba haa not been determined. Election day In New York was marked by other than riotous scenes at the pollt leal gatherings. More followers of the royal and ancient game of golf than turned out on any of the midsummer day thronged the links within a radius of 100 miles of New York City, and soma very In teresting competitions were hold.

Foot Ball Motes. with The f.ict that Nebraska defeated the Haskell Indians by a score of 17 to 0. while Chicago could defeat them by a lees de cisive score 17 to 11 would seem to be am ple ground on which to base a claim for being on a par with the University of Chi cago, which Is looked upon as a factor In the contest for the western championship. As usual, however, the matter of the cham pionship will continue to be a question of doubt and uncertainty. Should the Univer sity of Chicago do the unexpected and de feat .Minnesota, then. Minnesota will again set up its claim that while a tie game was played by It with Michigan, that In reality the Mlnnesotans won because they gained more distance at straight foot ball than did "Hurry Up" Yost's proteges. Under these conditions it v.'ould seem to be up to Nebraska to get in the game with Illinois with both feet snd clear heads to win. Then the Cornhuskers will be In a position to bid for a voice and a place In the athletic affairs of western colleges. Nebraska has claimed for some time that It had this right, and the ' supporters of the team think that way also, but the fact remains that the western colleges have not seen fit to give that recognition which the performances of the Nebraska eleven would seem to merit. Next year it is hoped that Nebraska may be able to book some games with some of the star aggre gations of the west and that these games may be contested in Omaha, whero they would be accorded a record breaking audi ence. The people of Omaha are getting hungry to see aome of the really big teams In a genuine foot ball mlx-up. That a good attendance would be guaranteed Is assured because of the general discontent evidenced here after the negotiations look ing to the pulling off of the Nebraska-Iowa game In this city had failed. A game with Michigan, Minnesota, Illinois, Wisconsin or Chicago would be an event In ths history of the game in the state of Nebraska, and If played in this city would be witnessed by a larger audience than has ever byn noted thus far In any western state out side of Minnesota. ,The athletic authori ties at Lincoln recognizes this fact and have given assurances that If It be within the realms of possibility a game will be booked with aome of these big elevens and that it will be pulled off In this city. A resolution has been placed before the authorities of Chicago university asking that that Institution take the Initiative In an effort to abolish the Thanksgiving day foot ball game. Generally speaking, this question is exciting considerable Interest among the colleges of the west. It Is cer tain that the advocates of the plan are actuated by the best of motives and It Is equally aura, that the movement will come to naught, and will kave the same bearing as the effort which has been made to ha.ve the big buse ball magnates dispense with the base txill games on Memorial day. jyothlng new or novel is embodied in the question, ana me original mite-worn argu mcnts are brought Into requisition. In deed, it Is doubtful whether anything new or novel could be said upon a subject which has long been a favorite with instructors In English, who annually assign It to their classes in theme writing Just before Thanksgiving day. One phase of the situa tion seems to merit consideration, because this Incident, coming on the heels of Dr. Harper's scheme for athletic, endowment, Indicates clearly the peculiar attitude which the faculty of the university has as sumed, apparently through Ignorance of existing conditions, toward the general pub lic. First, comes Dr. Harper's plan, which makes absolutely no provision for foot ball rooters st large, and now follows a plan whereby local enthusiasts are to be de prived, jof their unnual "turkey day" game. These suggestions are especially remark able, coming as they do from the I'nlver sity of Chicago, for If any Institution was ever Indebted to the public for athletic success. It is that particular university. Other western colleges will not take kindly to tha proposition, because they have previously been placed on record in this matter and a vigorous protest ha been waged against the abolition of the Thanksgiving game. That is the one great day among the foot ball youth of the whol country. And the general public, too. interested, fur It has been educated to look forward to these big contests with a de gree of expectancy rivaled only, by that experienced by the contestants themselves. The cominc: of winter, with its icy winds, damp, foeey weather, and sndden changes in tion more promptly than in former years, temperature, will set the old rheumatic joints.to aching and the muscles to throbbing' and It is conceded that a good deal of "Hurry . . . . ... , . , v, i n . . rr i , up- Yost s success has been du to the twitching with such pains as only Rheumatism cau inflict.

Cold and dampness are exciting causes; they affect the circulation, stop perspiration, and the poisonous acids iu the blood, no longer able to escape through the pores, settle uptfn the nerves and tender linings of the joints and muscles, causing inflammation and swelling and such terrible piercing pains that no wonder the nerves are shattered, the health under mined, and the patient often crippled and deformed for life.

Yet some people will go on dallying with external remedies for-years, leaving the real cause of the disease untouched, the blood growing weaker and thinner and the joints and ' muscles more . useless with every attack. This formidable disease and Dread of Winter is due to a general sluggish condition of the entire system and the presence of uric and other acid poisons in the blood. It is an internal disorder, that can only be cured by internal remedies. The aches and pains are only symptoms which you1 may scatter or relieve for a time by liniments or other outside applications, but they gather in some other part of the body, shifting frbm one set of muscles to another, and from joint to joint, and frequently strike the delicate machinery of the heart or some other vital spot. Rheumatism is' never permanently cured till the blood has been purified and the sluggish system aroused to better action; and this is exactly what S. S. S. does. It thoroughly cleanses the blood and renovates the system by neutralizing the acids and expelling from the system all acrid matter. S. S. S. makes rich, new blood, that warms and invigorates the body and supplies nourishment to the weak and diseased nerves. S. S. S. acts also as a tonic, and as the general health improves, rheumatic pains are felt less often and gradually cease altogether. It is the thin, acid blood that is so easily chilled by the cold and affected by every ill-wind and change in the weather. Rheumatism and bad blood are inseparable, you do not have one without the other, and the surest and quickest way to get rid of Rheumatism is to restore the blood to a normal, healthy state. S. S.

WHAT THE BOWLERS ARE AT Secretary Krpf of tha ltatloaal As sociation Talks at Clevelaad ' Coaaress. Secretary Samuel Karpf of the American Bowling congress is making a tour of the northern cities. In an interview Mr. Karpf says there has been a general increase !n the interest manifested throughout the United States in bowling, and that aa the winter pastime its popularity in many of the northern cities has been firmly estab lished. Surprise was expressed over the fact that-so many of the smaller towns and villages throughout the United States had put Jn bowling alleys. Many of these places afford some of the best bowlers in the country. In speaking of the annual convention of the American Bowling congress, which will be held In Cleveland In February, Secre tary Karpf said that from present Indica tions the attendance will be considerably larger than ever before, as a rate' of one fare for the round trip has been promised by the Western rassenger association Fourteen new alleys will be constructed by the Cleveland association, which will have chnrge of the national tournament. Ten will be used for the team games and the other four for the match games. It Is ex pected that by arranging a number of match games the eastern bowlers will again become Interested In the congress and enter for the match contests. As a bidder for the 1906 bowling congress Milwaukee and Detroit are the leading fac tions. The bowlers of Detroit have gone so far as to secure the assistance of the Chamber of Commerce to assist them in getting the 19C5 bowling congress. An earnest effort will be made to have the differences between the east and the west settled, so that the good of the game will be the main thlng-before the bowlers. The scrap that marred the last national meeting of the bowlers la deplored on every hand and every effort will be put forth to pre vent anything of a similar nature in tha future. Secretary Karpf said he thougnt the loaded ball will be entirely done away with at the next session of the American Bowling congress.
