ARIZONA TEAM HIGH
IN RIFLE CONTESTS
Southern California, Tacoma and
Bisbee AggregationS Win
First Matches

The official results of the first
matches of the Pacific Coast Rifle and
Revolver league have been received.
May the Southern California Rifles
defeated the Los Angeles Rifle and Re
volver club by a score of 759 to $50.
Tacoma defeated Seattle by TAI to 700
and Bisbee defeated Spokane by good
margin, the figures for the Bisbee club
not being at hand, but Spokane scoring
769, higher than either of the local clubs
and still losing to their Arizona op-
ponents. Bisbee was in addition handi-
capped by an Arizona zephyr which
prevails this time of the year and
at times blows even the mines out by
the roots, leaving only the hole in the
ground to mark the location.
On Sunday, May %, Los Angeles
shoots against the Bisbee club, the
Southern California Rifles tackle Seattle
and Tacoma locks horns with Spokane.
From the present dope book the South
ern California Rifles, the Bisbee club
and the Spokane club should be the
winners, but it is as unsafe to prognosti-
cate the results of a rifle shoot as it is
to attempt to call the turn of certain
affair near San Francisco July 4.
The usual conditions will prevail, any
number to shoot, and the six high men
to make up the team. 1t is certain the
Los Angeles club will make a better
showing against Bisbee than they did
against their Southern California Rifle
friends,

JEFFRIES-J JOHNSON FIGHT
MAY BE BARRED IN STATE
Especial to The Herald)

SAN FRANCISCO, May 10.
While no definite action to-
ward barring the Jeffries- John
son fight at Emeryville has
been taken, it is correctly re-
ported here today that the fight
managers are not at all pleased
over the outlook. Sometime
ago District Attorney Donohue
of Alameda county announced
that he would look into the
law on the status of prize fight
ing and if he found that he
had the power to interfere he
would do his duty. At that
time his announcement was
not taken seriously, but the
pressure that has been brought
to bear on him by the Good
Government organization and
churches may force him to take
slome action. 1t is this fact
that is worrying Tex Rickard
and lack Gleason.

NATIVES OF ALEUTIANS
RAVAGED BY DISEASE

PORT TOWNSEND, Wash, Oct 25.-
The natives of the Aleutian islands are
threatened with extinction because of
the rayages of tuberculosis, measles
and pneumonia, according to a report
brought today by the revenue cutter
Tahoma, flagship Of the Bering sea
seal patrol fleet
Captain J. H. Quinlan of the cutter
declares that remedial action is inn
peratiVe.
He advocates assembling all the
tribes and clans, now scattered in iso-
lated camps and villages, at some point
where they may receive medical super
vision.
Captain Quinlan says conditions in
the archipelago are pathetic. The ma
tives undoubtedly would resist concen-
tration and they helplessly witness the
extinction of their race.
The Aleutians are famous for the
beautiful baskets which they weave
from grasses.
The Tahoma will make report to
the National Geographical society on
the new eruption of Mount Bogoslov,
Castle Rock, one of the largest of the
Bogoslov islands, was greatly reduced
in size during the year. Perry island,
which disappeared in an eruption two
years ago, has reappeared and q new
island has been thrown up. The latter
has been named Tahoma island.

CHASE BELIEVES TARIFF
lMPERILS GENUINE ART
Painter Predicts Increase Of
Spurious Works in America

NEW YORK, Oct. 25.-Wi1liam
Chase, the artist, who has just re-
turned to New York from his annual
trip to Italy, fears the new tariff law
permitting the admission of paintings
without duty will greatly increase the
number of spurious "old masters" In
this country.
"There is an increasing demand for
old paintings in America" he says,
"and Europe is striving hard to satisfy
it, The flood of counterfeit pictures Is
amazing. The worst of the matter is
that it is almost impossible to detect
them. They are dune so cleverly that
even experts are not certain about their
value. You would think that artists
who could do such work would turn
their talents into legitimate channels.
Some of them are hired to copy by nn-
scrupulous dealers and few of them
get more than a starvation wage for
their labors.
"a considerable proportion of their
work probably goes unchallenged.
Corot turned out not more than 5000
canvases in his lifetime. I suppose
there are $4,000 supposed Corots now in
existence. And good many have come
to this country"

SHIPPERS UNPREPAREO
TO CO ON WITH CASE
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion PostpOneS Hearing On
Proposed Rate Advance

CHICAGO, Oct. 25.-At the resump-
tion of the Interstate commerce COM
mission hearing today testimony was
heard for an hour and half when ad-
journment was taken until tomorrow,
the shippers being unprepared to pro-
ceed with the presentation OF their
contentious against proposed rate ad-
vances.
In response to questions from At
torney Frank Lyon, counsel for the
commission, Comptroller Robinson OF
the Northwestern railway, said that In
the fiscal year of 1910 the road spent
$31 ,000, 900, the principal items of eX-
penses being track elevation and tn
building of the new station in Chicago.
About $50 000,00 worth of stock was
sold" said the witness, ito meet the
expenses"
There was some delay in calling wit
nesses for DISCRIMINATION and Com
missioner Lane inquired:
What does this mean, gentlemen
Haven't you got your witnesses ready
to go on with the shippers case? Sure
ly you cannot be cross-examining for
the purpose of delaying the hearing"
Attorney Clifford Thorne admitted
that he had no witnesses present and
said that he was desirous of showing
what he declared to be "the gross ex-
aggeratlon of values" by the rail-
roads.
Shortly after this the hearing was
continued.
