GORDON LOCKHART BECOMES A PROFESSIONAL.

As has been expected for many months, Mr. Gordon Lockhart, the well-known Prestwick Si. Nicolas golfer, has joined the ranks of the professionals. He has accepted a post at the great new course at Gleneagles. The regret felt that he will not figure again in amateur golf is counterbalanced by expressions of satis faction that he should not have followed many of his fellowcountrymen across the Atlantte.

The building of a ship of such a size is an indication that for some classes of trade the sailing vessel is still the most economical and serviceable. "It links up modern commerce with the epic, of the nea in which there figure the Flying Dutchman of tradition, the vessels which used to make their stormy passages Of course, the appointment means, a big round the Horn. the old China clippers loss to our home goll."
