CORN CROP FAILURE
 BRINGS SUFFERING

New Orleans, August 20.-Due to the almost entire failure of the corn crop throughout the greater part of Central America, much suffering exists there, ac- eording to adVices received here. Many of the poor class have been reduced to the verge of starvation, it Is said, and with little prospects for immediate relief generally, the situation has continued to become greater during the past few weeks.
 The corn crop of Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua constitutes almost wholly the source of food supply of hundreds of the residents O. those countries. In Mic aragua the conditions have been rem dered even more serious by the existence of revolution led by General Mena.
 In accordance with reported declara ton by the president: ] '.No one shall siarve," large shippings of corn by his order have been made from New Or leans to Port Barrios. More than 3O010 bushels have already been sent there by the government consul at New Orleans, ana another shipment of 10,000 bushels will leave New Orleans tomorrow. The distribution of the grain.A now under way ir Guatemala, will go far toward the relief of the sufferers.

THIRTY-SIX CRACK RIFLE SHOTS OF A. N. G. HELD ELIMINA- TION CONTEST YESTERDAY AT BOYLES

Thirty-six of the crack rife shots of the Alabama National Guard entered into an elimination contest yesterday on the rifle range at Boyles to deter mine the fifteen men who will repre- sent the state of Alabama at the na- tional shoot that will be held at Sea girt, N. J., next month.
 The shoot was under the supervision of General Joseph Scully. adjutant gen. eral and chief executive officer of the range, assisted by Major Cliff Price and the executive staff. The shooting was spirited and fine percentage was made by the marksmen, the scores were above the average and every man who made the team had to work for the honor. Under the rules of the contest the fifteen men making the highebt scores were selected as the team, the first twelve were the regu- lar team, tho last three are the alter mates.
 The successful marksmen who will do battle for the honor of the state were:

HOW RICHARDS WON
 FROM GEORGE HORNE

Salt Lake City, Utah. August 2O-1n his own story of the winning of the worlds high jumping championship at Stockholm, told to friends on his return here, Alma W. Richards declared his victory over Horine was not due to Horines form.
 ''In America" he said. "a slim cane pole is used for bar and when Horine jumps he bends the bar down but so skill fully that it does not fall from the pegs. At the Olympic games they use a stick an inch and half thick and held by very short pegs so that the slightest touch knocks 1t off. requiring an abso- lutely long jump."
