Lord Kitchener, head of the Brit.
ish war office, was made the target
for the harshest criticism heard in
the house of commons since the be
ginning of the war when Colonel
Winston Churchill, former first lord
of the admiralty, arose to discuss q
motion To reduce Kitchener's salary.
Churchill charged the war office
with grave mismanagement," "inef-
ficiency" and defective organiza-
tion"
For every six soldiers In the Brit
ish army we have but one rifle leveled
at the enemy" declared the former ad-
miralty chief.

London, June 2.-The momentous
battle at Verdun shows no sign of
slackening in violence, but the latest
official reports, in contrast with most
Of those issued during the last few
days, record no further advances for
the Germans.
The center of the bitterest fighting
has shifted somewhat to the south
west OF the front between Cumferes
and Dead Mans hill. west of the
Meuse, where the Germans have scor-
ed most OF their recent gains.
Dead Mans hill or the ground in its
immediate vicinity has been the scene
of the latest infantry engagements.
The Germans attacked the French
positions here. but were repulsed. ac-
cording to the latest bulletin from
Paris, the German defeat following a
success for the French when they
captured from the Germans a fortified
position southwest of the hill.

Unofficial reports from Paris point
TO the growing intensity of the des-
perate struggle at Verdun.
They declare. however that despite
the tremendous efforts of the Germans
the French first line west of the Meuse
is still unbroken and that the Germans
must score further advances here be-
fore they can force the main issue by
carrying the battle to the opposite
| bank of the Meuse. where the Bras
Douaumont-Vaux line continues to bar
a direct advance on the fortress.
Current bulletins on the campaign
in the Southern Tyrol record continu-
ed gains for the Austrians, who are
battering at the line southeast of Ro-
vereto, running through the regions
OF Schio, Arsiero and Asiago.
The Italians admit withdrawal along
some sectors OF this front, but there
as yet has been no breach In the main
| line of their defense which bars the
way to the Venetian plain.

~ NEGROES OF DENVER AND
COLORADO.

The Star has tried to stand by the
Negroes, their best interest and their
welfare. We have urged that the Ne
groes organize and speak through their
organizations. They have done that.
They have appealed, petitioned, yea,
begged for consideration by and from
the State officials. The Stars advice
to all Negroes is to not join any kind
of a club or an organization. Beware
of any and all politicians. Just stop,
wait and think for yourself. Weigh
all matters carefully before you act.
There is dirty work in the wind. Watch

DEER SEASON OPENS
 TOMORROW MORNING

With daybreak in the great beyond, deer season will open tomorrow morn ing Many hunters in the lofty noun tains and valleys will pursue their prey.
 The local sportsmen are almost pos itive that the first Duck will be brought to Phoenix before noon tomorrow, in an effort to win the 3030 Winchester carbine offered by the Pinney & Rob inson sporting goods store. Although many reports have been made as to where deer are now located, it is not certain whether they can be seen in the same old spot on the opening day. Some hunters believe that the big horned animals know the exact day on which the season opens and are on the lookout at all times until it has closed. The lucky hunter bringing in the prize winner will be awarded the handsome trophy on the arrival of the deer. The question as to who will be the lucky fellow is puzzling hundreds of interest ed people, and it is for that reason that a large crowd will be waiting to greet the trophy winner upon his arrival.

MIAMI, Ariz., Sept. 29.-Plans tor the extensive development of the 1900 acres Of ground owned by the Miami Con- solidated Mines company are going forward rapidly, according to an an- nouncement made at the focal offices of the corporation today The man. agement of the company has in view two of the best known drill experts in the southwest and have already opened negotiations with them. One CT the other will probably take personal su- oervision of the operations at the prop erty within the next few days.
 In order to place the shares of the company on the New York curb at the earliest possible moment John $. Cook, banker at Globe, will depart from the district Saturday or Sunday for New York City, where he will meet Harry Lefkovits Together they will complete the arrangements that are already In- der way under the direction of MT. I4efkoVits.
 Preliminary work is now under way on the property of the company and a crew of ten men will continue to pre- pare for the drilling operations for the next two weeks. It is hoped that by the end of that time the drills will be on the ground and that thorough eXplora- ton of the claims can be got under way.

NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-A number of new varsity elevens will swing into action tomorrow, the second Saturday of the eastern gridiron season of l9l6 Among the more important teams to engage in their initial contests are Princeton, Yale, Army Navy Colgate, of Pennsylvania and Brown.
 Principal interest will attach to the showing made by Pennsylvania, Yale and Princeton in their open games, as two of these elevens will appear under the direction of new coaches. The Eli players will have their first oppor- tunity to show what progress has been made under the direction of Tad Jones, and the same is true of Pennsylvania, where Bob Folwell now reigns supreme in the coach's position.
 "Speedy Rush" is no longer a novelty at Princeton, but the manner in which the Tiger coach brought along the Mas sau team last season apparently makes the Tigers formidable to opponents thi fall.
 For the first time in many years Prince eton will open her season away from home, playing Holy Cross at Worcester.
 Eastern Schedule
 The leading games in the east tomor- row with the scores of 1915 contests follow:
 Susquehanna at Colgate, 0-44.

 Great attention, perhaps, will be de- voted to the struggle between Notre Dame and Case Scientific School at Cleveland at the South Bend institu- tion because of the fact that Notre Dame has contests scheduled with Ne braska at Lincoln and with the Army at West Point.
 Indiana will be first of the Big Nine" elevens to get into action. The Hoosiers take on De Pauw, an old local rival. and their performance will be closely watched for evidence as to what has been wrought by Jumbo" Stiehm, the coach who helped make Nebraska famous.
