(By the Associated Press.)
Washington, Nov. 1.-the flrst-class
battleship Kentucky, now in the Medi-
terranean waters, has been ordered to
touch at Smyrna, Turkey, on her way

waters will be coincident with renewed
efforts on the part of the administra-
ton to collect from the Turkish govern
ment payment of the indemnity claimed
by the United States for the destruction
of missionary property in that country
some years ago.
The claims approximate in amount
100000.
Smyrna lies at the head of the gulf
of that name, has a large population and
for centuries has been the most i'm

Thornton Star was awarded victory

dark bay, has g ine form and earned
its victory over Limestone Belle, partly
because Of Its high breeding and high
strung temperament, and largely on ac.
count Of the ability OF Mr. Potts to
handle his horse to the very best ad-
vantage. Limestone Belle, owned by
e. R. Slime Of Kansaa City won the red
and Nettie Marie, owned BY I. J. Bsale,
