Petitions Are to Be Circulated at Once, as Time Is Crow ing Short. Movement Is Statewide.

A number of residents of the War ren District are in receipt of a latter from O. NJ. Matthews of Phoenix, sec retary of the Capital Punishment league, asking cooperation in having re-established the death penalty for capital crimes. The law providing for the death penalty was abolished by the election of 1916 The letter follows:
 With the end in view of organizing a committee having as its object the initiation of a statute to reinstate cap ital punishment in Arizona, this letter is sent you, soliciting your signature to the enclosed committee membership blank, with the earnest request that you sign same without delay and trans. init it in the enclosed self-addressed envelope.
 "I do not deem it necessary at this time to submit the many arguments which will be advanced in support of the law we propose to initiate. The columns C. the state press for the past two years have given ample proof of the necessity for the reinstatement of capital punishment in Arizona.
 The work of the committee. the membership of which you are solicited to join, VIII be to legally initiate such law and thus submit to the voters or the state the question of repeating the law which abolished capital punish ment. 1t has been deemed best to act as a state committee, and copies of this letter are being sent to members or the State Bar association. state. county and municipal offiicals of Ari- Zona. and men and women who have shown an interest in public work.
 "The membership blank. which you are asked to sign and mail, indicates the Limitations of the committee it is proposed tc form. You are also urged to make such contribution as your in terest in this matter would justify, and a proper statement of subscriptions re- ceived will be later mailed to all mem- bers of the committee contributing to the expense of the committee.
 "Will you please give us a prompt answer, as the date for filing the ini- tiative petition expires July g."

SPLIT GAMES

CHICAGO, May 3O.-Chicago by de- feating Cincinnati in the afternoon game broke even on the holiday bill, the visitors having won the morning contest
 The work of Jim Vaughn was the deciding factor in the afternoon game. His pitching was suberb. His three base hit which preceded a triple by Flack scored the winning run.
 The game was marked by an assault on Catcher Killifer by Outfielder Earle Neale. Bressler, in the seventh inning, hit little pop uD in front of the plate. Killifer tried for the ball but missed it and it went foul. Nealc. who was coming up to bat claimed it a fair ball and said that Killifer touched it before it went foul. Words were exchanged between the players and Neale attacked the catcher, threw him to the ground and then hit him in the face several times. Killifer tried to get on his feet but staggered and had to leave the game. Neale was led off the field by Umpire Rigler.

 DETERMINED TO AvENGE HIS MOTHERS DEATH
Injured in Mines at Tomh- stone, but Now Recovered,
 Enlists to Avenge Death of Mother at Hands of Huns.

PASADENA, Cal. May 30.-'I will take a price for everything that l don't care what happens to me So said Achille Ruyffelaere at the Army and Navy league shipping rooms yes terday morning where he was outlined with woolen as a preliminary to his return to Belgium. For months he has been waiting for the opOrtunity to fight the Hun. His story is one of tragedy. Now he lives only to avenge the death of his mother as the result of privation at the hands of the Ger mans; the death of his sister. result ing from nine bayonet wounds, Ger man inflicted, when she tried to stop them from cutting off the two hands of his 10-year old brother, and the death of his two brothers.
 Ruyffelaere was injured in a mine at Tombstone, AriZ., some time ago, by a premature explosion of dyna- mite. For months he was in the hos pital with an injured head and ear. While there he received a letter from a surviving sister in England. who is taking care of the handless younger brother
 The letter told that the dead sister had been blowing in the field. The brother was riding the horse, guiding it down the furrow Five German sol diers came into the field. The brother was dragged from the horse and his hands held over the beam of the blow. Blows from hatchet carried by the soldiers left him bleeding at the wrists.
 Sister Fights Huns
 The sister of Ruyffelaere fought with the Germans for the protection of the brother. Nine bayonet stabs left her dying in the freshly plowed furrow.
 That will keep you from shooting at us,' the soldiers told the boy. But Ruyffelaere has a modicum Of solace to pallite this wound in his heart. A Belgian sharpshooter covering the re treat of the Belgian army. climbed into a tree. He did good work The hand less brother told how four of the Ger mans fell dead and the fifth was wounded as he tried to run.
 That happened ten days after the fall Of Namur. The mother, sister and brother were finally repatriated and sent to England Shortly after their arrival there. last November, the mother died. unable to recover from exposure and starvation suffered while a German prisoner.
 Since hearing from his sister, Ruyffelaere has haunted the recruiting offices. He had served three years Tn the Belgian artillery. But the examin- ing sergeons repeatedly rejected him. Yesterday he came to Pasadena from the Anita Baldwin ranch where he takes care of Mrs. Baldwin's dogs. The surgeons. of selective service board number 1 told him he could go.
