Pittsburgh, Aug. 25. Playing golf
that would have done credit to a vet

22-year old representative of the Oak

amateur golf championship of the
United States on his home course
Saturday, defeating Robert T. Jones,
2nd, of the Atlanta Athletic Club. 5

Herron's victory was won over the
beautiful Oakmont course, where he
first learned the strokes of the game
from W. C. Frownes, Jr., a former
national champion, also a member of
the local club and a semi-finalist in
the titular tournament just Brought

Jones made a game struggle
against Herron for the morning 18
holes and the first of the afternoon
he fought every inch of the way.
Herron's putting was deadly. He eith

from any spot on the green, and it
was this more than anything else
that brought him victory.
Several times when Bobby had a
putt to win a hole he would look over
the ground carefully and then stroke
the ball, but often it would not drop.
When it would roll oft, or stop at

Herron had too much golf in him.
The tide did not turn. He kept bat

when he was once upon the green he
was master.

JAPS MADE FIRST MOVE
FOR PEACE IN WAR WITH
RUSSIA, LETTERS REVEAL
New York, Aug. 2 s.—Joseph
Bucklin Bishop, for thirty yea*s a
personal friend of Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt, and who, five years be
fore the former President's death,
was commissioner by him "to write
the history of the period which
covered his public career," presents
in the September issue of Scribner's
Magazine, the first of a series of pa
pers which gives for the first time
many interesting sidelights on the
life of the famous American.
The paper, entitled '"Roosevelt —
Peacemaker," selected and arranged
from the former President's public
and priv a t e correspondence,
amounting to more than 150,000
letters, deals with Mr. Roosevelt's
efforts to end the war between Rus
sia and Japan and which resulted in
the Porthmouth Peace Conference
of 1905.
For the first time, apparently, is
revealed the fact that Japan made
the initial overtures for peace. Four
days after the great Japanese naval
victory over Kojestvensky's tieet in
the sea of Japan on May 27, 1905,
the Minister of Foreign Affairs of
Japan, the letters show, cabled Min
ister Tukahira, in Washington, to
invoke Roosevelt's a.id as a media
tor.
Amused Roosevelt
"I was amused," wrote the Presi
dent, "by the way in which they
asked me to invite the two belliger
ents, together directly on my own
motion and initiative. It reminded
me of the request for contributions
sent by campaign committees to
ottice-liolders wherein they were
asked to make a 'voluntary contri
bution of ten per cent.' of their sal
ary. It showed a certain naivete on
the paift of the Japanese."
According to his biographer,
every step in the negotiations, ex
tending over a period of three
months, was taken by Mr. Roosevelt
without the aid of any of his most
trusted counsellors, John Hay, his
secretary of state, being critically
ill, Secretary Root having resigned
from the cabinet many months earl
ier and Secretary Taft being absent
in the Philippines.
"One reads the thick volumes of
his correspondence with amaze
ment bordering on incredulity,"
writes Bishop. "It is incredible
that one man could do so much and
so well. In no other task of his life
was the abnormal energy, mental
and physical, of Theodore Roose
velt put to a severer test and from
none did he emerge more tl'iunipli
DOUBLE MATCH
IS BIG SURPRISE
Shreiner nnd Beard Win Over
Koons and Black in
Hard Battle
Another big surprise came to ten
nis enthusiasts Saturday in the
double match bettwen Robert
Shreiner and Glenn Beard, and
Clarke Koons and A. S. Blacii.
Shreiner and Beard won out, scores
7 to 5, 7 to 5 and 8 to 6. Each
set was hard fought. The majority
of the games went to deuce. It was
one of the greatest contests seen in
the Greater Harrisburg tennis tour
nament.
In all the three sets. Black and
Koons started off like sure winners,
but their younger opponents tied
up the set and after forcing it to
deuce, run off with the set.
The third set should have gone
to the Black-Koons pair, but again
they weakened and lacking the
characteristic necessary "punch,"
dropped their last chance to stop
the rush of their opponents towaid
victory and the title in men's
doubles.
Of the quartet, Koons probably
had a shade the better of his cpm
panions, although his lawfords
were not working with usual fre
quency and at times he was de
cidedly arratic, seemingly affected
with a disgust and indifference as
to the final outcome of the match.
His strokes were on the whole,
however, better timed than his
partner's, or either of his oppo
nents, and his work at the net
topped that of the other three
players.
Black Lacks Pep
On several oceasions Black seem
ed to lack the necessary "pep" to
back up his partner, and while lie
by far played the "safest" game of
the quartet, even his accuracy was
not up to his usual standard. But
both he and his partner, as the
match wore on. appeared to he giv
ing in tinder the strain of a gruell
ing contest.
Shreincr's service was frequently
marred by double faults, and his
partner consistently foot-faulted on
his service, although the referee
didn't take it into account. Both or
the younger players displayed n.
better brand of team play than the
Black-Koons aggregation, however,
nnd on the whole played a more
brilliant game of tennis.
Board and Shreiner got in a num
ber of excellent placements, al
though Beard on more than one oc
casion was plainly worried by low
shoots from Black's racket, which
caught him in midcourt nnd left
WOULD MAKE SURVEY OF
AVAILABLE TIMBER FOR
NEWSPAPER PURPOSES
i Washington. Aug. 25.—1n view |
| of the decreasing supply of Amori- |
' can pulpwood used in the manufac
ture of newsprint paper, Senator
Watson, of Indiana, introduced a
resolution in the Senate authorizing
the Secretary og Agriculture *o
make a survey and preliminary in- j
vestigation of the approximate and
possible available pulpwood tim
ber supply not only in the north
eastern part of the United States,
but also in the central and west
-1 ern sections. The Secretary of
I Agriculture, also under the resolu
j tlon, is directed to make recom
mendations for pulpwood utilizu
! tion. Tl*e sum of SIOO,OOO is asked
I to carry on the survey and investi
gation.
j "Two-thirds of the newsprint pa
per used by American newspapers,"
i Senator Watson said, in introducing
I the resolution, "is imported or is
i manufactured from wood or pulp
I imported from Canada. One-third
j is made in the United States from
| wood grown in the United States.
The former proportion is steadily
increasing, the latter is steadily do-
I creasing." the Senator explained,
j "Nearly ull of the American news
print manufacturing Industry Is lo
(cuted In the northeastern statea—
antly. His activity was as tireless
as his resourcefulness was inex
haustible.
Asked Outside Aid
The President's activity was di
rected, lie said, to "not only steadily
and irresistibly forcing the two
warring nations into a conference,
but brinsing other nations like Eng
land, France and Germany to the
support of his efforts. If liuss.a
balked and showed signs of refu
sal. he persuaded the Kaiser to bring
pressure upon the Czar in the in
terest of peace. If Japan showed
similar signs, England was appealed
to, to bring pressure upon her. In
the end Germany alone leally help
ed, and Roosevelt gave unstinted
praise to the Kaiser ever afterward
lor what he did then."
In all of this correspondence the
Colonel wrote "without restraint or
reservation." In a confidential let
ter to Secretary Hay he referred to
the Kaiser as *i monomaivac and "a
lumpy creature who has had an
other tit." In another missive ne
tins characterizes the foimer Em
peror of Russia: "The Czar is a
preposterous little creature as the
absolute autocrat of 1i>0,090,000
people."
Insisted Upon Agreement
Every day, and, often several
times a day, he urged the Emperors
of Russia and Japan to agree upon
terms of peace. Once be wrote a
friend: "The more I sets of the
Czar, the Kaiser and the Mikado,
the better I am content with demo
cracy, even if we have to include
the American newspapers as one or
its assets —liability would he a hot
ter term "
While the conference was in ses
sion, the President had occasional
doubts of ultimate, success. "I have
led the horses to water." he wrote,
"but heaven only knows whethei
they will drink or start kicking one
another beside the trough."
"When victory crowned his ef
forts. however, continued Mr.
Bishop, he was not elated by it.
King George of EngUind said of nim
to the American ambassador in Lon
don: "I am simply lost in admira
tion for the President; nobody else
could have done it." Mr. Roose
velt's own verdict was: "I am over
praised. I am credited with being
extremely long-headed. As a mat
ter of fact I took the position I
finally did not of my own volition
but because events so shaped them
selves that 1 would have felt as if
1 was flinching from a plain duty if
I had acted otherwise."
