A gambling house in Butte, Mont,
was held up the other night by an
'armless wonder who, despite his lack
of arms was well armed. According to
the report-and since it comes from
Butte, Mont, the correctness of it can
not be doubted-the armless man swung
a big pistol into position with his toes
and shouted, Hands up!" The gam
blers obeyed the order. The hold-up
man demanded money and got it; then
he backed out, still holding the pistol
between his toes. Later he had a row
in boarding house and once more
brought his pistol into play, taking a
shot at one of the boarders. The DO
lice appeared on the scene, and the arm
less bad man tried to carve them with
a razor. Had the story come from any
other city it might have been doubted,
but after Mary MacLean nobody dis
credits any freak story from Butte,
Mont.

AT present. says a contemporary.
Georgia is the lynching state of the
Union" We wish it were possible for
US to dispute and disprove this unpIeas-
ant Characterization but unfortunate
ly it is all too true. There was a time
when Louisiana and Mississippi led
Georgia in the red list of lynchings.
Within the last year or two our sister
states have improved their records, but
Georgia hasn't improved hers. The
Governor of Mississippi has taken po-
sition against mob law that seems to
be bearing good fruit. The Governor
of Alabama has followed his example.
These officials tell the representatives Of
the law in the counties in which lynch
ings occur that they must find out who
committed the outrages and bring them
TO justice, on pain of being deprived of
their offices. That has the effect of
squirting on the investigation. We need
IN this state more vigorous efforts to
put down mob law.

Dairy and Food Departments which meets
in annual convention In st. Paul, Mimi,

w. Wiley, chief of the bureau Of chemistry
oc the Department of Agriculture, will
make an address on the recent experiments
held under his supervision on the rela-
tionship Of adulterants in food products
Prof. Wiley's paper will deal with the
methods obtaining during the course OF
the experiments. but no results will be
stated, these being held for the report OF
the bureau, which Is now in course OF
preparation He will explain to the asso-
citation the manner Of conducting similar
experiments in foreign countries and the
difference between these and those held
under his direction at the Department of
Agriculture.
Facts as they appeared upon individuals
during the treatment given the volunteers
will be related, but no deduction will be
drawn from them that will indicate what
the final results will be as scheduled by
the complete report.
Prof. Wiley said this morning to a re-
porter for The Evening Star that there
was not the slightest foundation in fact
for the assertion that he intended to begin
a course of experiments on tobacco in its
different commercial forms. He said that
this could not legally come within the prov
ince Of the Department Of Agriculture. and
that he had never considered the question
in any way.

BISLEY. England, July 1.-THE annual
contests Of the National Rifle Association
opened here today with the great interna-
tional team match for the Palma trophy.
The weather conditions were favorable,
though the heat was terrific
At 800 Yeards.
The shooting at 800 yards resulted as fol-
lows: United kingdom 554; America. 551; ;
Canada, 536: Natal, 513; Norway. Al:
France, AL; Australia, SIS.
The above scores were out of a possible
6OO
The individual American scores at 800
yards were: Private George Cook, D. c.,
"A: Sergeant ]. II. Keough, 49, Corporal c.
E. Winder, IL. Corporal w. 3. Short So;
Lieutenant K. X Y. Casey. 81; Sergeant
George Doyle, &c; Lieutenant Thomas Hol-
comb, jr., 66; Lieutenant A. f. Wells. 65.
Private Cook, with a, tied Martin of the
British team for the best score at this
range.
When the shooting In the second stage
began the Americans soon overhauled and
passed their British competitors. In the
first twenty shots the United kingdom
dropped 1S points against dropped by the
Americans.
AS the shooting progressed the keen in
terest in the contest was shown by the
number of spectators continually arriving.
The clearness of the atmosphere made the
shooting conditions ideal. There was a
variable breeze. which was blowing at the
average velocity of six miles an hour.
At 900 Yards
BY the time half of the teams had shot
off at 90 yards the Americans had gained
o point. thus giving them a lead of 6
points. after deducting the three the were
behind in the first stage. To the total
266, Keough contributed 50; Casey, 6S
Doyle, 66. and Winder. 63. The Canadian
first squad was second. with 262; the Brit
ish team was third. with 257.
The scores Of the other Americans at 900
yards were: Short. 90; Cook, 63; Holcomb,
81; Wells, 30.
The totals for the second stage were:
America, 61b; Great Britain. 5O4 Canada
%94; Australia, 1872; Natal. All; Norway,
COS; France, 4O<.
Interest in the later firing centered
chiefly in the Americans and British. Tho
Canadians had been regarded as dark
horses. but their shooting did not justify
any hope OF their success.
The shooting of the American team was
notably quicker than that OF the Others
and the Americans strictly followed the
instructions of their commanding officer
to refrain from the unnecessary conversa-
ton in which some of the other teams in
dulged. The fact that the Americans had
gained substantial lead at the end of the
first two ranges elated them and made
them confident of their ability to maintain
the advantage in the last stage and recover
the trophy.
Ambassador Choate and Naval Attache
Stockton were among the spectators
In the second half of the 300 range the
Americans gained another two points, max
ing the aggregates at the end OF the second
stage as follows: American, lO66; United
kingdom, loss; Canada, 1O4O; Australia.

CONSCIENCE CONTRIBUTION.
Believed to Be From Some Importe,
Who Paid Short Duty.

Another envelope containing five 500 bills
was received by the Secretary of the Treas
ury this morning and credited to Con
science" This envelope bore the Boston
postmark. as did the one received yester-
day, and which also contained $500. It Is
the presumption at the department that the
contributions to the conscience fund are
from some importer who has paid less than
the full duty on goods and feels that he
has defrauded the government
Officials say that these contributions come
in waves. Sometimes for months there are
none received, then they begin to come in
regularly. This being a good season for i'm
porters 1t is expected that the fund will be
largely augmented between now and the
holidays.
