NEW YORK, Nov, 28. The list of Im
portant golf tournament winners, both In
championship and open events, during the
190 golf season, reveals the fact that the
"old guard" has continued to hold Its own
against the advances of the precocious
youth. The names of young men figure
conspicuously In a majority of the compe
titlons. but they have been golfer of ex
perlenre rslher than new comers without
reputations. In other words, some of those
who attained places In the final brackets
five and ten years ago were able to repeat
this season. '
As to the open tournaments, the value of
a first depends to a certain extent upon the
merit of the links as a test of golf and he
quality of the opponents. Unless these con
siderations are reckoned with, the number
of chief cups gathered In by a golfer are
of no special consequence. It Is quite pos
sible for a man to win a cluster of cups
over courses In a certain section and then
fall utterly to make good In more Im
portant tournaments. There are those who
win first cups regularly In open event at
the summer resorts In the mountains who
rarely figure at all In the Metropolitan
Golf association circuit. Points that count
most are steadiness In play In high class
company and tlie average maintained on
links that compel good golf.
To start the competitive season in this
section Klndlsy B. Douglas won the Lake
wood tournament last April, and a week
later the national champion of a decade
ago was runner-up to W. C. Fownes, Jr.,
at Atlantic City. The latter Is another
old-timer. Douglas sls won the gold medal

tournament In July, and, as he played In
Important part In several other tourna
ments, the 1908 season was the best experi
enced by the Boot In years.
Walter J. Travis scored his first success
of the year in this section by winning the
spring tournament over his home green at
Garden City In May. The veteran also
won at the Nassau Country club and at
Poland Springs. Jerome D. Travera. the
national champion, scored first In the Hunt
ington Valley tournament, where he dis
posed of Eben M. Byer, the 1906 title holder.
In the final round.
That was In May and Travers experi
ence a lapse for some time thereafter
that Is, so far as open tournaments were
concerned. He competed, however, in the
metropolian championship tournament
at Baltusrol the latter part of May, and,
after having the title apparently In his
grasp, lost to Charley Seely In the final
round. A few weeks latter Travers suc
cessfully defended his New Jersey title at
Englewood, and In September he returned
to top form and won the national cham
pionship at Garden City for the second
time.
Miss Kate Harley won the women's na
tlonal title at Chevy Chase, while Mason
Phelps, who accounted for the champion
ship, of the Western Golf association, dupli
cate a former success. Fred McLeod, the
new, national open title holder, although
young cannot be classed as an unknown, for I
more than a year ago he won the Western
open. In the east the best showing on the
part of a young and comparatively unknown
amateur was the recent winning of the
chief cup at Atlantic City by R. T. Hsyne,
th Yale freshman.
NEW YORK. Nov. 28 -The IDftS 'season
of golf was the best known since the game
secured a foothold on this side cf the
wster. fifteen years ago. Aside f,rom the
almost continuous string of open and In
vitation tournaments this year, the various
championships pre vert to be memorable
affair.' The first of the national events,
the open at Myopia the latter part of
August, resulting In a tie between Fred
MrLeod and Will Smith, at the end of
the eventy-two boles of medal play, was
a notable performance.
Th United States open championship
sine th beginning have been won without
exception by foreign players, but the ns-tlve-born
are annually showing more
strength and the day will come when one
of the home-breds will succeed In breaking
through the Bcotttsh lines and win the
coveted title.
Closely following .the open, came the
amateur at Garden City, where Jerome
Travers so ably defended h's title. The
young man, who only a few months ago
Icelebrated hia twenty-first birthday. Is
without doubt the strongest amateur gflfer
playing the game here today. He Is not
only a genius when it comes to playing the
trokes, but he Is a master of tactics, and
Is full of resources.
The critical match of the recent cham
pionship at Garden City was between Trav
er and Walter J. Travis, and It Is doubt
ful if a finer match was ever brought off
between two leading amateurs at thirty
six holes. If the champion could be pre
vailed upon to cross the water, taking with
him several of the best American ama
teurs, one of the number might have the
distinction of duplicating the feat accom
plished by Travis at Sandwich In 1!W4.

In scare-head type, the Amateur Atnlttlc
uunlon at Its annual meeting pa-iaed a
(ule which will be of more real benefit

The big clubs, the New York AtMetic

In th tame light, but for the next couple
of year It will be a real yoke for them
to carry.
It ia the rule which requires an ath
lete who wishes to change his club affilia

after quitting the club before he can sport
the color of another.
For year the New York Athletic club
and the Irish-American Athletic club have

disease, and especially do we hope this will reach those who have used
other medicines with unsatisfactory results.
Contagious Blood Poison is the most powerful and destructive oi
all blood disorders. It corrupts and vitiates the entire circulation and
manifests itself in the most loathsome and hateful symptoms, such t$
ulcerated mouth and throat, swollen Elands In the groin, copper colored
splotches, and even sores and ulcers on different parts of the body.
The poison causes the
hair and eyebrows to
fall out, and sometimes
the finger nails come
off and the entice
glandular system is
attacked.
Because of th? in
sidious and destructive
nature of the disease
most medicines used
for Contagious Blood
Poison are composed
Principally of Mercury,
'otash, or some other
strong mineral. It is
intended that these
minerals shall kill the
germs and virus of the
disease by working on
the principle that one
poison will counteract
the other, and thus
produce a cure. This
is just the point of fail
ure, for the virus can
not be killed; it will lie
dormant In the system
until such treatment is
left off, and then every
miserable symptom of
the trouble will return.
S. S. S. works on
exactly the opposite
principle. It goes down
into the blood and
removes the virus
and germs of the disease and in this way brings about a real
and certain cure. S. S. S. does not cover up the disease in any
way, but so thoroughly does it cleanse and purify the blood that not the
slightest trace of the poison is left for, future outbreaks. S. S. S. is
made entirely of healing, cleansing roots, herbs and barks, it does not
contain the least particle of mineral in any form, and is a medicine so
absolutely safe and certain in it results that every one may cure them
selves of Contagious Blood Poison in the privacy ot their homes, and be
assured that the cure is permanent and lasting. We have a Home Treat
ment book containing a great many helpful suggestions to those who
are curing themselves with S. S. S. We will send this book, and any
medical advice free to all who write.
