san BIEGO-PHOENIX RACE
SURE TO GO THROUGH

San Diego, Oct. 4.-Thirty five rid
ers are entered, and at least fifteen
others are expected to compete in the
San Diego Phoenix motorcycle race,
which will start in this city Friday,
October 81, and end in the Arizona
city Sunday, November ,.
Although comparatively little pub
licity has been given to the event %
date, it is one Of the biggest of its
kind ever held in this country The
conditions under which the entrants
will ride will be the hardest ever at
tempted by motorcyclists, and it is
freely predicted that but handful
OF the contestants will survive the
grilling race over the desert wastes
between here and Phoenix.
The distance will be approximately
40 miles, and for the greater part Of
the way the course is over mountains
and stretches of almost impossible
roads. Nevertheless it is believed the
winner will cover the route in some
thing like twenty hours, running tine.
Interest in the road race is at high
pitch in Phoenix, the club of that city
having easily raised its share of the
$1,000 purse. Three hundred dollars
was raised in a very short time and
the remaining 5000 was promptly
posted by the board of trade
In this city the sport loving public
has not yet grasped the Importance
OF magnitude of the race, for the COM
mittec of the local motorcycle club has
raised only a small part of the $500
required. IN order to make good with
H. pledge, committee of ten mem
hers Will begin today to solicit enough
money - make up the difference.
Roy Silva, secretary Of the pro-
motion committee of the San Diego
club, covered the route To Phoenix and
return ~ an automobile and reported
the roads to be IN poor shape most of
the way. Other members of the club
Who will enter the race will ride over
part Of the distance and see for them
selves the condition which will con
front them in the coming grind,
The start will be made at o'clock
on the morning Of October 81. Yuma

will be the first stopping place, con
troll being established ,nefe Friday
night. The second days run will be
to Aqua Caliente, a distance OF III
miles from Yuma. The final dash OF
92 miles to Phoenix will be made Sun
day morning, November 2, and it Is
expected the winner will cross the
finish line about noon.
More than $1,000 in prizes will be
posted, first prize amounting to $500.
Other prizes of $4OO will be put Up
for the track races in Phoenix during
state fair week.
The Phoenix club has made elabo-
rate arrangements for entertaining
the San Diego riders during their
stay.
Nearly all OF the Phoenix delega
ton will arrive in this city two weeks
before the race.

German Murderer
Emotionally Dead

Berlin. Oct. I-Sane and respon-
-ftIr. hut armotioually dead" is the
verdict today of physicians, mental
experts and psychologists who have
examined \. Wagner, the murderer cf
sixteen persons at Mulhausen. Wag-
aer .aas.a school teacher and during
the first week in September cut the
threats of his sleeping wife and four
children. set Mulhausen in flames az
night. and then opened fire with two
automatic revolverS ON the scantily
clad villagers rs they fled from their
burning homes.
Experts declare Wagner'S mental
condition as not abnormal, but that
he is dead to all feeling and emo
tiou. They compare him to the Nc
Namara brothers. who confessed to a
series Of dynamitingS which culmin-
ated in the blowing up of the Los An
geleS Times with big loss of life,
and with Mrs. Guinness, the female
Bluebeard" who conducted the ''mur-
der farm" in Indiana.
As result of this expert opinion
that Wagner Is sane and was sane
when he committed his crimes. he will
in all probability eXpiate them on the
headSmans block. in sharp contrast to
the punishment meted out to the Me
Namaras.
Wagner is placed in the category
of those whose souls are dead.
GlimpseS into the working of his
mind are given by those who have ex-
amined him. Wagner has no regrets
and does not feel at all sorry for what
he has done He regrets only that lie
could not first have finished off, his
brothers family of nine persons which
he had carefully planned and for
which purpose he had seereted 500
cartridges in his brothers stable. He
had first gone through his brothers
house, noting carefully where each
member of the family slept. He finally
decided. he says, to start with his
own family, then get as many as he
could IN MulhauSen. and finish up
with his brothers family. His cap
ture by the villagers prevented him
from carrying out the rest of his plaa.
Wagner, like the Rev. Father Hans
Schmidt. Roman Catholic priest, who
dismembered the body Of Anna Au
muller while she was still alive and
then threw the parts in the Hudson
river. declares that there are too
many people in the world who ought
not to be here" Like Father
Schmidt, he declares 1T We're better
that half the people in the world We've
killed off He calls himself pes
simist" and processes to belong %
the school of pessimism" Of Schoo-
enhauer and Nietshe. Wagner's trial
is to be called in a few weeks.

Polaire has been called a beauty and
she has also been called the ugie#t

in her professed lack of beauty

in New York the other day, she had

women has her peculiarities and is AZ
times difficult to manage The three
have been doing much the same line
of work-poetic dancing with bare
feet and few clothes. They have, in
way, been rivals, and those who are
watching the experiment wonder how
long Polaire, Lady Constance and
Gertrude Hoffman can dance on the
same stage.
Unless they are exceptional women
as well as exceptional dancers, their
tour will be beset with professional
and personal jealousies, and the skep-
ties are predicting that the venture
will meet with disaster The three
