Genevieve Hecker, metropolitan champion, and Miss Lucy Herron, a young golfer from Cincinnati, will meet to-morrow in the final for the natonal woman's golf championship, which has been in progress throughout the week over the links of the Baltusrol Club. Miss Hecker, the bright particular hope of local enthusiasts, disposed to-day of Mrs.

E. A. Manice by 2 up and 1 to play, and Miss Herron numbed the aspirations of the Boston contingent by defeating Miss Mar. garet Curtis, 3 up and 2 to play in the semifinal round. In strong contrast to her play in the previous two rounds.

Miss Hecker was perfectly at home on the putting greens and played with the utmost confidence on the outward journey. She was no less than five up on her redoubtable opponent at the turn This result was due to a sterling 45 for the first half of the journey. In fact, the only two moderate holes which can be recorded against the local champion were the sixth and seventh. for which she required six and seven, respectIvely. At the one she topped her third and supplemented this by over approaching the green.

To the other Miss Hecker, after three perfect full shots, landed within a mashie pitch of the hole. made a hash of her approaches. That Miss Hecker was in her happiest vein was shown by her winning the long first hole in five, after reaching the green in three and running down at the fouth hole in a perfect six. Coming home, Mrs. Manice made a bold and effectual bid to reduce the local girl's commanding lead.

She started by winning the tenth in fine three, thanks to her approach put lying dead, and supplemented this by registering a perfect four at the eleventh. Honorg were easy at the twelfth, but two magnificent shots to the thirteenth fa Miss Hecker near the edge of the thirtenth green, and, running her third up dead, she was down in a par four four. Mrs. Manice then won three holes off the reel, with the result that the local champion WAS but one up, with the two to go. Slaking no one, mistakes, Hecker however, recorded to the a last five but Miss to her rival's six and thus won the match.

Had the pair played out the last hole Miss Hecker had an excellent chance of returning 92 for the eighteen holes. Following are the cards: Miss In. Mrs. ManiceOut 8 5 In 6 Miss HerronOut 30 In MIRR Out 7. 4-60 In BOXING CONTESTS ARRANGED.

Again the heraldic pomp Of autumn on the hills: A ecarlet pageant in the swamp; Low lyrics from the rille; A And a rich attar in the air That Orient morn distills. Again the tapestry of haze Of amethystine dye Encincturing the horizon ways; And from the middle sky The iterant, reverberant call of wild geese winging by. Again the viols of the wind Attuned to one soft themeHere, every burden left behind, Oh. love, would it not seem A near approach to Paradise To dream and dream and dream! -Clinton Scollard.

OCTOBER 12. 1901. DEFEATED MISSOURI TIGERS. Iowans Were Stronger and Played a Better Game Throughout'Varsity's Defense Weak. FINAL SCORE, TEN TO NOTHING.

Fumbles Were Frequent on Both Sides and Neither Eleven Could Hold the Ball Long Enough in the First Half to Score. REPUBLIC SPECIAL. Columbia, Oct. The best game of football seen on Rolling field for many 3 day was played this afternoon by the SimpEon College (la.) team and the Tigers. The teams were about matched as to weight, the Iowa boys having a slight advantage in the line.

Missouri men who played the best game were Birney, Ellis. Anderson, Forrester and E. Washer. Jesse played a steady game, 48 did Coe. Kirk was several times in the right place.

The men just simply lacked strength and generalship. In the first half Alissouri had the sphere within three yards of the Simpsonfts' goal, but a misplay lost the ground, and the Tigers were never dangerously near their opponents' goal again. The game was fiercely contested, and I when the Tigers had the ball they usually gained, but their defensive work was ragged. There seemed to be lack of team work, and when the lowans would try their "backed-up' formation it Was simply trrestatible. The line-up: Simpson.

Three football games will be played 1n St. Louts to-day, Smith Academy being scheduled to play its alumni at the Pastime grounds, C. B. C. being scheduled to meet the West End team.

and St. Louis University having arranged a meeting with the High School. In each case a pretty contest should result. The long -suffering High School contingent will, of course, get another beating in the game to-day with St. Louts University.

The alumni, if they develop any team work at all, should beat the Smith regular team. while C. B. C. looks to hold the West Ends safe beyond all question.

In spite of this, the gameg should be hard-fought contests. The outcome of the Smith AcademyAlumni game will be really the most doubtful of the three, as players like Dwight Evans, Robert Lewis Atkinson. Willard Boyd, Marion Lambert, Cooke Lewis. Oliver Garrison, Erwin Hilts, Sterling Foster should easily defeat the regular team If they play together. Whether they have had sufficient time for team practice is the question.

If they have, the game will be merely a practice affair, In which the Smith regulars will be beaten. The game will be a good try-out for the Smith boys, and should do them a great deal of good. From their practice it appears that they have a really first-class team this season, and they appear certain to defeat the High School if both teams maintain their relative form until Thanksgiving Day. At the Christtan Brothers the game will not be the one-sided affair it was last Saturday, when the High School was defeated, but a really good game should be seen. Great interest 1s being taken in the work of both teams, and many friends of the West Ends are expected to attend.

The lineup of the teams will be as follows: C. B. C. Positions. West End.
