 THE TUcscM TOURNAMENT John NJ Aitken returned 10 the city yesterday morning from Tucson. where for. several days he had been attending the meeting of the Arizona Sportsman's association. The other members of the Phoenix team. w D. Tanner, Tom Edens and N D. Valentine, also re- turned home Phoenix was not the winner of the number of prizes it has been in the tournaments of several years previous. the reasons for which is not easy to explain. Tanner and Aitken won the twO-man team medal and MT. Aitken won the McVeigh handicap medal. In the latter event he at first tied with Rand of Fl Paso and Julian of Tucson and won only on the shoot of of the tie. In the events of the week the four-man team handicap was won by Deming N. M. The indi- vidual prize was won by Rand of Fl Paso with a score of S6 per cent. In
 the same event the professional sco was made by HOllings of San Fran cisco with a score of 90 per cent. It is interesting to note that the profes- sfonal score was beaten at the meet held here a year ago by three different amateur marksmen. The Copper Queen trophy was won by Rand of Fl Paso with a score of 24 out of the possible %. The Gwynn trophy was won by Tucson. During all of the three days of the meeting a high wind blew, which greatly fnterfered with the making oi good scores. Mir Aitken left this morning for Prescott and about tho middle of the month wiu leave for New Orleans in company with J. P. Dillon going there for the purpose of attend ing the biennial session of the grand lodge of Knights of Pythias. Both MT Aitken and MT. Dillon are supreme rep resentatives from this territory.

Dover, n. J.. Dec. 26.-In sight Of fifty per-
sons. none Of whom dared go to his rescue.
George Davis. twenty-five years old. of Rock
away Borough. was drowned this afternoon
vainly trying TO save an eight-year-old Hun
garian lad named John Okie. who had fallen
through the ice on the grist mill pond.
Davis lived near the pond. which is formed by
dam in the Rockaway River. and both he and
his wife. with some anxiety, had been watching
the boy playing "tickelly bender and laughing
as the ice bent under his weight.
When at last the boy broke through Davis
hurriedly tied a rope around his waist and with
one end in his wifes hands. he plunged in after
the boy. He succeeded in getting him at once
but when he tried to Chamber out on to the ice
with his burden it broke and both went down
again. Mrs. Davis tugged ct the line, trying to
draw her husband back TO the open space but
the Jagged edge of the ice cut the line in two
leaving her helpless to aid him.
By this time crowd had gathered, but no one
ventured TO go to the rescue until a boat could
be obtained. when. with the aid of graphing
hooks, the bodies of both man and boy were
recovered. Although they had been in the water
only about ten minutes, efforts at resuscitation
failed.

POLICE LAUNCH MISSING.
Three Mem in Boat, Which Ma1
Haze Been Driren to Sea.

The gravest fears are entertained for the
safety Of Launch No. 6, Of the Brooklyn Police
Department. which left yesterday morning at
o'clock from Canarsie for Sheepshead Bay.
run Of hardly more than seven miles and which
had not been heard from up to 3 O'Clock this
morning. On board the launch were three po-
licemen-Frank z. Ford. acting As coxswain:
John J. Walker. engineer, and William H.
Ward.
The police authorities becoming uneasy. sent
out general alarm in the afternoon, and later
a police boat, equipped with a powerful search
light, sent 10 look for the boat. A
strong wind blowing when the boat started
the search but despite this and an increasing
sea, its searchlight played over every yard Of
the course the seemingly fated launch is sup
posed to have followed. but trace of It
could be found
Three theories are held by the police The first.
which is considered most likely is that the
launch unable 10 make headway against a
strong head wind and the choppy seas and was
blown out TO sea; the second is that she turned
turtle and dived 10 the bottom with all on board;
the third. that the squatters around Canarsie-
against whom the boat was sent-dispOsed Of
the officers and sank the boat.
Launch 6 is an old type Of the naphtha launch,
and because of its possible unseaworthiness had
been reegated TO service in the queter waters
Of Sheepshead Bay except when requisitioned
for special duty. as was the case yesterday. She
is thirty-five feet over all, and draws SIX feet.
But. despite her age. she is said to be able TO
make eight to nine knots an hour.
Yesterday morning the three policemen were
ordered TO search the huts Of the sQuatters for
stolen property. as they are alleged TO have COM
mitted recently many thefts of boats and pro-
visions of the Meadowbr brook Club
An early start was made Jamaica Bay was
filled with broken ice, and from the start the
launch made heavy weather Of it. She rounded
Barren Island safely, and was reported rolling
heavily off the island. In the mean time the
wind rose steadily and drove up a nasty cross
sea.
Still later and in the early evening small
feet of auxiliary fishing boats came in and re-
ported that they had not seen any signs of the
missing launch. They also said that there was
q heavy gale blowing, and the was rising
steadily.
