V Si In Jet .than six weeks the Ketlonal League
II w championship season will be opened at the Polo
HI it Ground!. Preliminary tralnlnB.br the New
York will be Inaugurated In about a week.when
ft Capt. Joyce will take the local player to Lake
I C wood (or a month's hard work. The good play
' ng of the New orks last season and the (act
jl; that the team appeara to havo been strength-
. anted bytheaddltton of Grady.cntcher, nnd Hart
S Man, third base, hare caused unuenal Interest
M f aunong-thejcranka, who are hoptpg (or a brilliant
fr tart, a hard race, and a Garrison flntsb. There
If '. U not, however, a feeling; of over-confidencoln
-J jrf the ability of the team to "win the pennant In a
B walk," because sensible en'.hnslnsU realize the
jS ft uncertainties of baseball and also approctata
dt f the ezlitence of other formidable teams. The
H , Injury toe. yaluable player lUe George Davis or
HifflaaSA Qlesson, the Inability of Rusle or Mcekln to
rnHBf' pitch winning ball because of a sore arm, the
IjjHf, orlppllnff of Van Haltron or Joyce by reason of a
MK sprained ankle, or any sunh mlshaps,would serve
1 BJ1' to put the New Yorka behind In the race andjde-
1 OfS prlve them of all chance (or the flag. Last sea-
n MKJ i' aon they" were fortunate In not having- any men
I HH ald up, and If their luck In this respect con
yHv . tlnuea this year, there Is ground (or consider.
jHJ; able hope. There Is no use denying; the (aot
'' that ths New York team is (ormldable, (or It
a HY possesses the finest corps of pttcAors In the coun-
IHB, try. Every baeeboll manager declares that
1 HJt ? Unite, Meekln, Doheny, and Beymour are the
" "Bis Four" of the profession. With Joyce,
MHf 't Oleason. Darts, and Hartman covering the In-
Hr field, and Tlernan, Van Haltren, and McCreery
KflH taking care of the outfield, It would seem that
HK the affectlrsness of the pitchers would be well
HHk) backed up both In fielding and In battlnir.
HHBpl Grady, Warner, and Wilson are good, every-
mmWw &T catchers, although not exactly stars. Joyce
HKjr at first base will be In n place where, as cap-
Hk tain of the team, he will be able to direct his
BHl men and also out ginger Into tholr play. lit
BBH't has shown ability to successfully lead a boll
HHl? team, and -In-thai respect he Is entitled to
Er credit. If he will pay all of his attention this
year to tha team and let umpires alone, his work
nt will be appreciated by tho public more.than It
BBM'I Was last year.
gaHi Speaking of Joyce brings to mind the Indls-
:) eatable fact that Boden of the Boston Club not
;' lose a$o tried to Mnduoe Freedmao to sign
M& Adrian C Anson as manager of he Now
Mr Yorka In place JoC Joyce. Hoden Ibelleves that
Anson la still -a greaCiuanager and should not
9VHC.' be permitted to get out of the League. The
il'sW Boston . magnate said to the reporter of The
iJt-BBsl Bdn while on the way home from tho League
i'taS meeting:
fliJW "Ansop would be Just the man to handle the
HE Navr York team and I suggested his engage-
mmmm in em to Mr. Freed man eomo time ago. The
C New York Club could afford to pny Anson
If, 93,000 in salary, (or It would be a tins Invoat-
f-f-f-H ment, as Anson (s still tho best drawing card In
ft' the League. He Is also ono of the best niana-
ft' pars In. tha country, and with such material to
, candle aa tbero Is In tho New York teim I
' think he'would land a championship. I urged
W Air. Freedroan to sign tho veteran, but ho
KfWK, couldn't see It In that light, probably because ho
RSf i Is satisfied with Joyce and lion signed the latter
gHHp (or the ensuing year. Philadelphia could have
f , . used Anson to advantage, yet for eomo un-
fi known reason Btalllngs was retained (or an-
Cjn other year. It will he a causo for regret If An-
son drops out of Lcaguo basoball."
aaafw-
B A correspondent of The Sex writes asking
m'i why the Urooklyn Club dues not secure Aneon
t to play first baso and captain the team this year.
V; lie winds up as follows: "Anson would irmko
v the team a big card everywhere and thcrcbr In-
Vr. crease the club's eharo of the gato receipts.
He would work In harmony with the other olll-
'.t:. dais, Barnle and Ebbets. nnd would muke tlm
mm-i series with the New Yorks sretty hot paper."
Sx With Anson on Brooklyn's first base nnd us
n aaptaln of the team, Hilto nnuld bo plenty of
tun over the bridge for tho cranks. It would
Kn not cost the club a cent (or his release, as ho 1h
"S'4 (ree to go anywhere,.'and his salary, no matter
IS what It might be, would bo 'quickly made up
Ci? (rom Increased gato receipts. The Ilrookhns
must do something to boom public Interest. If
r they.start of! with i winning streak all will ho
JWl-v' weD. .C&pU Anson might make such an event
Kf; even mom possible than it appears to bo now.
; The Brooklyns will report for duty at Eastern
'i' Park on next .Monday, and will proceed to Al-
IMUVf lalre.N. J., (or tholr preliminary training, l'resi-
fdentKbbets received the signed contractsofJoues
and Miller, the latter ono of tho now pitchers, on
Sr Baturday, which nearly completes the list. Tho
JjT' team has been strengthened o er thnt of last
,'? 7ear,rilthoughtho shortstop looks weak on
paper, it Is thought that Jack Hynn, drafted
aaali (rom Hjracube, nnd formerly with 'ho Boatom.
twill do most of tho catching. Ho is a butter
worker and a beadier catcher than Gritn, which
. will make him valuable as a receiver for tho
f f young pitchers. It Ib Just possible that Grim
Jv7 may no used In tho Infield, whoie ho has dis-
fs& played ability before Khort field lies between
f S George Smith. Bean, Sbeckard, and Yongor. .Some
'f iierson8 say that tho club might do well to put
JK Bheckard In thOTrinco permanently, regardless
mmt of his errors, and let him learn bow to be per-
ff1 feet. Bheckard, In tho estimation of good
2'j Judges. Is a second Keeler, and should be de-
v vcloped rather than dropped. Ho Is an excellent
9l'f hitter. The Biooklyn team should do better
-If than last year, with ubsoluto harmony prevailing
It among the players and officials.
f S, While the Brush "blacklist" resolution and
mtg the accompanying ovldenco of depravity were
i being read in open meeting at St. Louis, among
' ( the newspaper men present was Charles Dex
1 'V ter ,no clover catcher of tho Loulsvillcs. who
' mtil during the winter monthe Is a reporter for an
i Kvansvlllo paper. He had his notebook out,
' l and took down all that was said. Ho also
I JjM? showed by word of mouth that the ovldenco
K against tho rowdies was conclusive. Dexter
( belongs ton good family, and Is a college gradu
'It; ate. Ho plays ball for a living simply becauso
f-lr of his lnratuation for the game. At .Mt. Louis
i S lie was ono of tho best ilresxcd men In the corri
iHf? dor of the HouUiorn Hotol, and made many
'f (rlends by his gentlemanly behavior.
-If An The Bun said Immediately after the big
'f M football games were tilayed last fall, the Yale-
f'i Princeton match will take place on Brokaw
-til Field, Princeton. Tho date, Nov. lit, has been
.f J mutually ngrced upon by tho two univcrsltlos.
tA' Karvunl and Yale havo also agreed upon Nov.
fW 32 as the dato for their nniiiuil gamo at New
fjij, Haven. It is snld on good authority that If
'f S I'rlnceton decides to ptuy a hard game before
mm-A her contest with tbu Blue, negotiations will bo
f opened for a battlo w 1th the I'nlverslty of I'enn-
fT ajlvnnla, to bo played at Prlucotoii on Nov. 12.
Ffi The last game between these rivals was played
f 'ft at Trenton In 1P04 and tha ono preceding that
'ur was played at Philadelphia, so lt;fs holler cd that
'mmW oW l'onn's eleven would willingly concede a
;&. point by agreeing to meet tho 'ligcrs at Old
lr. Nassau, llarvaru will play tboQunlurs, If a
'rWilt ftumol8 arranged, on Nov. 10, the dato of tho
t S ale-Princeton game, tho event to take place at
'OTA Bpldlers' Field. Should Harvard consent to
llf Play Prlncoton on Nov, 'J or Nov. 3, tho game
'T&' would probably bo played at Prlncoton. as tho
iBS last meetlpg-between the Tigers and the Crlm-
aB .on ,o0,, P'eco at Cambridge. It can be Been.
Mi therefore, that there Is a chance (or three of the
'& biggest football games of thejyear being played
M at Old Nassau's new field. '

Nrrr ItAVnc, March 0. Yale's baseball candi
dates have begun playing In regular positions
and tha practice season may be said to be fairly
started. Morton L. Fearey has the call for
pitcher. He showed much promise last season,
but bad his right hand spiked so badly that he'
was out of atl the championship games. This'
winter ho has showed lino speed and (air con
trol. His wlldncss seems to bo his worst (ault
C. M. Hall, a Junior, Is, next to Fearey, the best
man out He pitched a couple of games last
year, but a (acuity complication took him
away early. Big Cadwalader, tho football
centre, has received much attention all the
winter. Ho has not developed so rapidly as was
hoped, and has been temporarily 'dropped to the
freshman squad. Tho candidates (or pitcher
are not quite satisfactory. Capt. Greenway's
arm soenis to hnvo been permanently disabled,
and the youngsters roust do all tho twirling.
Behind the bat eome good material has re
ported. Sullivan, , who was first substitute
backstop last year. Is the favorite. New
combe, last year's freshman' catcher, handles
himself well, but Is too light, lllrsh, anothor
freshman, has dono good work in the cage, but
he la Ineligible because ho went to Richmond
College last year. He wlll'play on his class team
and try for the 'varsity another season. Arthur
S. Goodwin, last year's catchor, has Just left
college on account of Illness.
For first base Mcllrde, the football (ull back,
Is the best man (or all around work.1 He covers
wldo territory and hits the ball hard In practice.
Wadsnrorth and Russell are clever fielders, but
handle the stick In weak (orm. It now looks
aa though tbo other three Infield posi
tions would bo divided up among Haien,
Do Saulles, and Camp. Just now It Is impossible
to tell what disposition will be inado of the trio.
It Is possible tbut Do Saullos will go to short,
which ho played at Luwrcncevllle Academy;
Camp to third, nnd Hazen second. Atkln is a
prominent candidate for tbo Infield. He played
shortstop for tho Now Londcu Athletics fast
summer. He Is a hard hitter and seems sure to
win a place on the tonui.
Tho outfield sooms to bo practically settled.
It will bo ono of tho strongest In the country.
Capt. Grcenway will cover left, Wallace will
probably play right again, and either Atkln or
Wear will talto euro of centre. "Doo" Hamlin,
Inst year's second basom u, will not be a candi
date for tho nine. What disposition Yale
will make of tho candidates wbo spent last
summor as membors of summer nines Is uncer
tain, Ben Farnbam, last year's left fielder, la
nnnouncod aalnellgtbln. Ho Is coaching the Law
School nine, and is taking specinl studies In that
department. He will bo a member or that team
on Its Southern trip. Hamlin will also play
with the Law School men. and Clarkson Is men
tioned as another Law School player.
Yale's annual Indoor games will be held next
Batur.lay evening nt tbo Second Regiment
armory. In conjunttlon with tho Connecticut
National Guard. The following ei ents are open
to members of the Stato militia: SO-yard dash,
one-mile relay race, nnd boxing in all wolrhts.
This Is an Innovation that has never been per
mitted by the (acuity before. Some of tha
cleverest pugilists In the Stato are members of
tho military companies, nnd tho sparring events
will be an attractive fexturo.
Secretary James K Sullivan of the A. A. U.
has accented an Invitation to act as referee of
thognmcB. There will be n number o( toum re
lay races, the principal ono for Yale men being
the contest between tho academic und scicntlUo
departments.
Spring work for the football squad will ba
begun in a-forlnlght. Cupt. Burr Clark Cham
bcrlln has nollrkd tbo candidates for plncos
behind tho line that they will be called to tbo
Yale Field for regular practice on af ton oous in
April and May. Hard work In punting of nil
kinds will be done. Scvernl former full backs
will be prcsont to coach most of tho time. Tro
phy cups will boolTored for tho winners nt the
annual competition in kicking, which will bo
held nlmlit .Tnnn 1.
Coach Bob Cook mndo tnoro changes In the
'vurslty crew Inst week. Williams, tho young
ster who stroked tbo crew nil tho fall and until
three uceksiigo, has been shifted again. When
bo returned from Philadelphia last week, w here
ho had been scut to recoer from on attack of
tonsllitls, ho was placed In not 2. Ho tins Just
been moved Along to bow. Capt. Whitney, who
has been pulling how, taks bis old seat at 2.
Capt. Brock of last year'B freshman crew has
been nbsoiit two weoks at his homo nt Philadel
phia suffering with an attack of Indigestion.
Ho has Just returned und will ho In
sent 3. The crow is rowing at present aa
follows: Stroke, Flint; 7, Greenleaf; fi,
Allen; 5. Cross; 4. HcGee; 3, Brock; 2,
Capt, Whitney; bow, Williams. Three veterans
of l-ist year's 'varsity, Rogers. GroenWHy, and
Uriswold, nronut of tun boat. They are train
ing hard, hut nro rowing In tho second crow.
Tho oarsmen will roquest the faculty to allow
them to go to Now London a week earlier than
usual this vinr. That will take tlmm to the
'lhnmcs by Juno 1. The candidates will be cut
down In about n week to fourteen men. These
will remain hero all the Kaster vacation, rowing
twicoadov. At thnt timo tho final reduction
of tho candidates will bo made. Cook will remain
here with the candidates throughout the vacation.
Football.
Nr.w Havex, March 0. Yalo's schedulo of
football games (or next season, which was an
nounced luBt night. Includes the most radical
cbango (rom Yale's custom mado In years.
From 188U until 1804 Yale and Princeton met
for their annual football game on Thank-gl Ing
Day nt New York. Then further Thanksgiving
Day games wore prohibited by the Yale faculty,
und Yale and Princeton playod on the Saturanv
beforo Thanksgiving. Harvard has. since 188(1,
met nlo the Saturday before Yale played
Princeton. This year all will bo changed. Yale
will play Prlncoton ot Princeton on Nov. 12,
and Harvard at Yule Field on Nov, 10.
The transfer means a big change not only by
Yalo and Harvard, but a similar shift. It Is
stated, between Princeton and the University of
Pennsylvania. These Institutions will probably
get together for their old-tlmo game on the Sat
urday before Thanksgiving. The change by
Yalo leoves Princeton and Old Penn without a
game on that day. The changes are the most
sweeping ones made in many years by the big
universities In their football arrangements.
Clever Games Under tbe "Drlbbllna Cede."

Bicycle club riders, appreciating tha (act that
ths outdoor riding season Is at hand, turned put
In force yesterday. Increased activity was no
ticed at the clubhouses and bicycle shops.'
Ttlders who possessed models of the latest type
and others mounted on wheels of an old vin
tage were conspicuous on the bicycle roads and
paths. The roads were In excellent condition.
Host of the New York cyclists directed their
routes to Central Park and ths Klverslde Drive.
During tha morning the latter route was
alive with glistening wheels handled by
experts. The Boulevard was also popular.
The Harlem Wheelmen ventured out on their
first run of the season. A party of members rode
up to City Island via Washington Bridge, Ford'
ham, and Westchester. Runs to Yonkers and
Tarrytown were alto taken, and a number tf
riders crossed the ferry at 123th street and rode
to Englewood and Nyack. In Brooklyn the
army ot riders who went through Prospect
Park and down the cyole paths outnum
bered that of any previous Sunday this
year. Members of the Kings County,
Nassau, Brooklyn, Long Island, South
Brooklyn, Nameless, Sterling, and Windsor
Terraoe wheelmen divided their patronage be
tween Bath Beach, Bheepsbead Bay, and Coney
Island. The Merrick turnpike and towns on the
north and south shores of Long Island wsro vis
ited by a large number of rldors. The New
Jersey roads were in excellent condition, and
riders (rom the territory surrounding the
Oranges, Plalnfleld and Weslfleld turned out In
crowds. Runs were taken to such points as
Summit, Short Hills, Madison, and Morristown.
Throughout the day the Hudson County Boule
vard was one procession of bicycle riders.
One pronounced effect that the reduotlon In
tbe price of wheels Is having Is to lncreose the
sale of cycling sundries. Dealers state that the
demand Is very large, and that It Is chiefly (or
the higher grade ot goods. It seems, they say,
as If buyers (eel that having saved many dol
lars In the purchase of their cycles they can
afford to Indulge themsolves In the mat
ter of equipping them. Tbe march of Im
provement In details on chain wheols
has been somewhat checked by reduced
profits, but the Improvements made In ac
cessory fittings seems this year greater
than ever. The market bristles with Ingenious
novelties designed (or tbe convenience of
cyclists and sociably Inclined riders who like to
meet on tbe road and talk wheel. In lamps the
wlckless form thnt burns acetylene or other gas
promises to be a fad. Bells that aot automati
cally In connection with a brake or are operated
by means of a push button on the grip are
E roving catchy. Several new kinds of brakes
avo appeared within a month, tho latest aud
most novel being of tbe back-pedalling variety
and acting on tbo rear tire. It marks a departure
In the respect that by Blmply ceasing to pedal
tho cogs within the sprocket, by which the brake
Is operated, are thrown out of connection and the
rider can coast while holding tbe feet still. This
same construction makes it possible, when
coasting with the feet up In front, for tbe rider
to catch tho flying pedals without danger of
inlurV. Asouickas Inn rnvnlvlnp ntrlnl Hlnlin,
the leg or foot tho mechunlsm Is thrown at zero
und tho pedals rest Idly, while the sprockets
and chain continue to revolve. This dovlco re
moves the objection commonly made against
hack pedalling brakes, that thev ore of no use
for coasting. To equip n wheel with this brake,
however, a special sprocket is requlrod. Quite a
few new designs In smsll too cllpsifor women are
Doing made, and some new articles for the
same purpoto are clamps that fit on tho edge of
tho pedal and catch the sole of the shoes as the
foot are shoved forward, much the same ns Ihe
side clamps on a skate. One Inventor, seeking
nrobibly to remedy tho feminine objection to
toe clips of their not being able to acquire tbe
kmnk of catching tbem, hns devised a clip that
rises over the too automatically when the foot Is
placed on the pedal. Tho clip Is so adjusted
that It hnngs down from the side of the pedal,
and balances the latter so that It always swings
broadside up. A littlo plunger that connects with
tho clip and protrudes slightly above the pedal
surface ctuscs the clip to rise Into place as soon
as the rider puts pressure on tbe pedal. Inter
nal binders for seat posts and handle bare are
decidedly popular this season, but a soat post Is
now out that requires no nut or blndtpg collar.
It permits tbo saddle to be put Into the frame of
awheel or removed from it, post and nil, with
out having to touch n w rencb. Tho stem of the
seat post Is split on tbo bias from one end to
the other, nnd the halves are Independently
hinged nt tho crosp!ece. Consequently the
action of the two pieces Inside tho wheel Is
exactly thnt of a wedge. When tho stem Is
pusbod into the wheel and tbe top piece, with
thosaddlo on It, is pressed down in front, one
of the halves Is forced down lower than tho
other, nnd becauso of the tranverse split tho
diameter iof tho whole stem Is lncrensod, hold
ing the post securely. A slight upward blow
from tbe hand on the under sldo of thosaddlo
loosens the stem and permits It to be removed.
New forms of chalnless wheels have been
making their appearance every week, but the
latest comer Is something that confutes both
theoretical and practical mechanics. It does
precisely what hns always been accounted to bo
out of the question. It Is a gear that " turns tho
corner ' by means of square-cut teeth that mesh
directly Instead of by means of bevelled teeth.
The Inventor calls It " a (ace gear." It has been
generally accepted that In order to transfer
power from one shaft to another running at
right angles by means of cogs the cogs must he
V-shaned and cut on a bevelled plane. Spur
gears have hitherto been used only for engage
ment between wheels turning In adirect line with
each other. Tho new chalnless looks much like a
bevel gear wheel at. first glance, but closer In
spection sbows that tbe teeth on the Inside of
tbe front sprocket or pinion wheel, as well as
those on tbo driving shaft, are cut perfectly
square and mesb together oxnetly tea spur gears.
Considerable Ingenuity has been shown In the
way the teeth have been cut, and the Inventor
claims tho device to be better than bevel gears.
One of tho things the maker of this new gear ex
pects to accomplish with it Is to transform any
rider's chain wheel Into a chalnless for consider
ably less than a new wheel could ho bought.
There is perhaps, no rulo In connection with
road riding that is moro familiar to experienced
riders ond more closely adhered to by tbem tbnn
that against riding with a snug chain on muddy
roads. Probably no caution has been uttered
oftcnor to novices than tbe ono bidding them to
slacken their chain In wet weather. Yet It Is
astonishing toseothe number on muddy roads
who are either Ignorant or heedless of this Im
portant Injunction. With the chain running
exposed it takes but a very short tlmo for It to
become bo clogged by grit between tho links
that It tightens up and makes tho wheel
run very hard. The commonest cause for
chains breaking Is that they havo grown tight
between the sprockets owing to dust and mud.
Another point In this connection, nnd ono that
Is but little known. Is that most frames are out
of alignment in tbo rear because of carelessness
In allowing a ehaln to grow too tight. Chains
do not often break. Thoy nre being made better
and stronger now than ever. When a chain gets
too taut, and tbe rider continues to push away,
something must give. If the chain is too
strong to break easily, the rear forks and back
stays yield and the frame 1b sprung out of line.
When this has happened tbe chain does not, of
course, run truo between tho sprockets, and
plentv of riders who wonder why their whoel
does not run as easily as formorly could find
explanation byreailllng some occasion when
they rode In the mud with a taut chain.

During tho spring months now at hand, when
tho streets and roads are likely to be wet much
of tho tlmo. riders who like to avoid annoyance
and expense should have most thought for tbelr
tires. Many tires have been condemned as lack
ing durability when their collapse was due to
tbe extra wear and tear Incident to being ridden
on wet roads, becauso all tires are cut and puno
tured more readily when they are moist. It Is a
fact well known to rubber goods manufacturers
that the best tires suffer most in rainy went' er.
Rubber when being cut In a factory to shape
nnd slzo la always wet with water, and the finer
tho quality ot the stock the easier It outs.
Pieces o( shells, tin, and sharp bits of crushed
stone are plentiful enough on macadam roads
to do great damage to tires, and It la just at this
time of the year that they- make the moat
trouble. A rider to whom ths expense of buy
ing new tires several times a season Is no object
need not heed wet roads, butmany oycllsts, who
neve learned through experience the extra
tenderness of tires in the wet, make It a point
never to go out except w hen the roads are thor
oughly dry.

The players who Ttslt thepubllo links at -Van
Oortlandt Park during the spring will And a
well-equipped golf house (or tbslr coats and
dunnage, with separata locker and dressing
rooms (or women and men. This Is a wolooma
addition to the accommodations of tho links,
although no more than the tennis and baseball
players have received in the parks (or years.
Until the lockers are all takon up, thoso who
wish to do so may rescrvo any one of them (mm
month to month. Thero havo been players on
the links dally throughout the wlntor, (or oven
when the luko was thronged with skaters nnd
the park roads with sleighs there was some en
ergetic, golfer at work propelling n red ball over
the snow that lay thick on the course. But ths
season virtually begins to-day, (or the back
bone of winter seems to bo broken. Hereafter,
especially on Saturdays, thero will probably,be a
good many golfers out. A feature of tho season
will bo a series of monthly medal-play handi
caps (or a cup to be presented by G. P. Moroslnl,
Jr., who lives within a short dlstanco of the
lints. Ths competition will be open to all
players who are not members of any regular
gob! club and who use the Van .Cortlandt
links regularly. The details and tho handicap
ping will be attended to by a committee of the
players, and tho first match will be hold In
April.
The Van Cortlandt Park course is a fine
place to learn or practice golf, but It Is lacking
in the attractions that would draw experienced
golfers to tho links to fight out an Important
match. The course is well grassed and pos
sesses many natural advantages, which have
beon supplemented by some artificial hazards,
ana with very littlo expense tbe links could be
made first cla,s In every way. Tho work on tho
course, and tho labor ot keeping It In shape for
play have devolved upon employees nt the park.
Tbe present need nt the links Is a regular greens
keeper, who should receive authority to pre
pare tne putting greens for tho season's play and
to rearrange the hazards, n hllu later on he will
havo his hands full in keeping the crowded
links up to the mark In plating condition. At
Boston tha public links at Franklin Park ore In
charge of Willie Campbell, a professional of
wide experience, but here, although the Van
Cortlandt links was the Hrst public ono In this
country, a regular greens Wu. per has never beon
employed. As the organizer and & st Presi
dent of the New York Riding Club and In other
sports besides equestrianism. Park Commission
er Clausen has proved to bo an advocate ot health
ful outdoor pastimes, and tho golfers are build
ing on this trait (or more recognition at Van
Cortlandt than they have received heretofore.
An advantage in the employment of a greens
keeper who is a professional golfer by tbe city
would be. In addition to the services obtained
at Van Cortlandt Park, the utilization ot bis
knowledge to select suitable ground (or links in
the park property in tho boroughs of the Bronx
and Brooklyn. The golfers thero are clamoring
(or some accommodation. In Great Britain
publlo links are maintained by many cities and
towns, and, accordlrg to the opinions of some o(
the local authorities, a links is always a desira
ble addition to a public park or common. In
baseball or tennis the outsiders are debarred
(rom tho playing ground, but at golf the course
is always open to all. Tne borders of tho course
are alwayB available for picnic parties, and when
pedestrians want an airing they have only to
follow a single pair or a foursome to got all the
walking thoy wish, not to speak of the pleasure
of watching tho sport. Few of tho grout cltlos
of the world havo as much land available (or
publlo links us Now York.
In spltt, of the uncertainty existing regard
ing tho open championship, the professionals
are full of tho playing ardor. The presence of
tho winner of tho long driving contest at When
ton, John Harrison, at Philadelphia, has stim
ulated matters in that neighborhood. Harri
son and Jumcs Campbell of thu Boluiont Cricket
Club have a houie nnd-bomo match of thirty
six holes pending with Hnrry Uullnneand W.
W. Campbell of tho Philadelphia Country Club,
which will bo decided vory soon. Harrison and

piny Gullane and Campbell a similar mutch (or

The exact definition of the duties of the cap
tain, which will be flxod by a chango in tha by
laws at the meeting of tho Oakland Golf Club
on Thursday night is of interest to all players.
Tho change will give to the captain tho charge
of the links aurlng all competitions and the
right to arrango for all club and interclub
mat! lies, nnd to select the players to represent
tho organization In all Interclub contents. It
w ill ulto be arranged that his decision as to any
auestluns arising during a club match shall be
nal, mm that ho chall be thu Chairman of the
Grems Committee. The point Is 0110 that
should be generally adopted, for at many clubs
there Is opposition between the Greens Commit
too and the trolf captain on man matters to tho
detriment of the game. 'Ihe best wo to reme
dy this state of things is to givo to the captain
tho executive right In all things appertaining
to competitions.
The year's golf In Groat Britain began aus
piciously on Feb. 17 by a matoh between the
professionals, J. H.tTaylor and James Braid, at
Wimbledon. They were all square at tho
eighteenth hole, but In tho afternoon Taylor had
somewhat the better of a give-and-tako game,
nnd be won the match by 3 up and 'J to play.
By approximated strokes, as everything was
not holed out, tbe two tied at 73 in the llrst
round, and'Jn the.Becond the result was: Taylor,
76; Braid, 83. Braid proved himself tho
longer driver throughout.
London Golf of Feb. 25 has this to esy about
American golf clubs:
Their lower price may be accounted for by tbe Mo
Klnley tariff, with its Imposition of 35 percent, on
British golf cluts and balls, but we certainly do not
believe that Amerloan clubs are "better made and
finished" than those of tbo leading makers who su
largely export from this side, and whose clubs, not
withstanding all this flourish, still hold the field In
all foreign markets. Wo havn seen aeveral specl.
mens of American clubs, obviously mado by Scot
tlsh workmen from tbe workshops of Korgan, Park,
and Clark, but the heads are too hard for tha
British taste. They are made of dogwood, which
Is harder and heavier than apple, and possesses
less resilience to a blow In Iron clubs the
Americans may have an advantage through Im
proved machinery over our homo manufacturers.
Tbe other day tbe American representative Qf a largo
Iron establishment la the states called upon us and
showed specimens of tho drop fonted head which he
was anxious to push In the home market. At to the
advantage from a playing point of view of tho drop
forged over tbe hand-forged club head we cannot
sueak.bu t to the eye of the uninitiated In the technique
of atecl and Iron manufacture tho drop-rorgud head,
beautifully finished and brightly burnished, had an
attractive appearance 1 and like razors which are
made to aell, it would undoubtedly captivate the non
golflng buyor In a large wholesale city establishment.
In any case, our large Scottish and English club
makers ought to keen an eyo on this "Invasion," and
take pains to see that there It no deterioration In
their handiwork.
