RELATIVES OF VICTIMS
MUST SUE In CANADA
Uncle Sam Unable to Compel Re-
turn of Valuables of Those
Drowned on Titanic.

The State Department will be un-
able to directly assist the relatives of
the American victims of the Titanic dis
aster, or obtain possession of any valu-
ables found on the recovered bodies.
This Is due to the lack of any special
treaty with Great Britain covering the
, disposition of the effects of American
citizens who die on a British ship on the
high seas.
James w. Ragsdale. American consul
at Halifax, brought the matter to the
attention of the State Department in
a letter asking for instructions regard
ing the disposition of money and jewelry
and other properties found on the bodies
of the Americans brought into Halifax
by the funeral ship Mackay Bennett.
In view of this fact relatives and
friends of the victims must go to the
Canadian courts to obtain the property
TO which they lay claim.

ID SHOOT AT
 COUNTRY CLUB
Arizona Sportsmen's Asso- citation Will Hold Tourna- ment at Usual Place With
 Special Events and EXhl- bitions at Fair Graunds

Officers of the Phoenix Gun club on Saturday definitely determined the manner in which the tournament of the Arizona Sportsman's association will be carried out during the week of the fair It had been planned to use the fair grounds for the morning events and have no shooting Tn the afternoons of that week, But upon going over the grounds on Saturday it was found there was some incon- venience due to the discharge Of the guns frightening horses, while the fly ing shot might prove a menace to those upon the grounds.
 It was therefore. decided that the association would utilize the grounds of the Country club as it has done Tn other years. The regular program will be carried out at the Country club, while special events and the shooting of the professionals at targets will form part of the daily afternoon pro- gram of the fair. A platform stand ing directly inside the half mile track and in front of the grandstand will be used by the participants. The neces- sary measurements have been taken and a trap will be installed at the fair grounds within a few days.
 In order to expedite the events on the regular program, three traps will be installed on the Country club grounds The shooting each morning will begin at S:30 o'clock and will close sharply at noon. In this way those who come here to take part in the events will be enabled to attend the fair each afternoon.
 A new rule will prevail in the di- vision of the purses. Heretofore the purses have been divided on a 40. 30 20 and 10 per cent basis. This year the winner of first place in an event will receive 30 per cent of the purse | The winner or winners of second place will divide 40 per cent, the third will | take 20 per cent, and the fourth 1C per cent. This rule has been adopted so that there may be a more equitable | distribution of the moneys. In twenty 1 bird events. such as are shot in the | tournaments. there are usually two or l three tied for second place It is pos Sible under the new arrangement foI | the man winning second prize to take down more money than the man se-
 i curing first place, but the probability 1 Is extremely small.
 | A movement is now on foot to in | augurate fifty bird events in place o1 ! the twenty shot numbers. It is point
 1 ed out that there are many shots who can make high records in the twenty bird events whose endurance would not be sufficient to carry then i through longer events with such cred 1 itable showing. The chances of ties

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH l

NEW YORK, Sept. 29-The name of Justice Victor J. Bowling will be presented to the democratic state convention as candidate for governor.
 This was made known tonight by United States Senator O'Gorman after la conference with Governor Wilson in the hotel where a banquet was given last evening in honor of Will liam F. McCombs; chairman of tFe democratic national committee.
 Governor Wilson declined to com ment on his conference with Senator OGOTman.
 Norman E. Mack former chairman of the national committee, sent a telegram today expressing the hope that McCombs will be able to com plete the campaign he had so suc- cessfully inaugurated"
 Wilson in Q speech referred to Roosevelt frequently and made allu- sion to his views as academic
 T do not use the word academic he said, exactly as our distinguished eX-president uses it. I find that whenever I know the facts and know what they mean and say what they mean, he says that 1 am academic by which I infer the only thing that can be stripped of a pretension of the academic mind is an unsustained as- SortiOn'
 The governors speech was chiefly lauditory of McCOmbs but mention by him of the name of Senator La Fol lette as the leader of the progressive sentiment brought forth great ap- plause.

 Mrs. Cannon remained in Benson a day and was much pleased with the conditions at the school.

In connection with the visit of Prince Henry of Prussia to the Ger man possessions in the Far East, attempts are being made to boom manufacturing in the German pro- tectorate of KiaochoW The estab- lishment of an iron and steel works, for which the rich ore fields in the German sphere of influence would furnish abundant raw material, is considered of first importance since these metals are scarce in East Asia and there is a strong demand for theem throughout China An ener- getic promotion of the cotton and silk spinning industries is also urged. In both fields of industry German establishments located on the ground would furnish strong competition for the American export trade in steel products and cotton goods.

out in an article in the Tag that for this menace the Germans and their navy development are in part to blame, since one of the factors be- hind the movement to abandon free trade is the need for more revenue to bear the cost of England's big naval program which has been inn posed upon the already enormous burdens for old age pensions, national insurance and other social legislation. If England adopts a customs tariff, Germany, which has with Great Bri- tain the largest trade relations, will find herself paying not only for her own big navy but for the British as well

There is nothing more beautiful

crushed it out and buried it from sight
utterly. Be yourself To attempt to
be anybody else is worse than folly.
It is impossible to attain it. A genu-

who is real, is worth more than the
biggest fraud in existence Let the
