Junction City, Kan. Sept. 3.-The
plans for the big camp at Fort Riley
during the maneuvres show that it will
befsone of the most spectacular ever

participate will be encamped on the
Republican river flats just north of
Junction City. in the form of a gigantic
fan, which will have the apex near the
bluffs, half mile farther north of the
town. At the apex of the camp will be

On the ribs Of the fan will be en-
caniped in regifnental formation. the

at the camp site before the arrival of

ABSOLUTE LISTLESSNESS
At ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Hopes Now
Center on Canadian Yachtsmen.

London, Sept. 3.-The final defeat of
Sir Thomas Liptons cup challenger
Shamrock III was received in London
with absolute listlessness. The con-
census of opinion is that Sir Thomas
has done everything that time and
money could accomplish and wide
spread sympathy for him is shown.
The chief hope expressed in the streets
is that Canada will enter the lists next
year ard possibly succeed where the
mother country has failed. 1t seems
improbable that, in view of the failure
of Shamrock III. another challenger
will soon be dispatched from England.
