AMERICAN GUNNERS
DEFEAT BRITISH
Beginners in Small Bore Shooting
Game Here Outshoot British Ex-
perts for Second Time.
(By Peter p. carney.)


That Americans can adopt the favor
lite sport of any nation and then prove
themselves superior at the game was
conclusively demonstrated in the
National Rifle Matches at Camp
Perry, o., when for the second con-
secutive time the United States Small
Bore Rifle team won the international
match for the Dewar trophy from the
representatives of England.
Small bore rifle shooting is one of
the chief sports of Great Britain.
There are more than 5000 small bore
rifle clubs in the British Isles, while
in the United States small bore rifle
shooting is in its infancy. We have
been using the rifle for a great many
years in this country, but IL wasn't
until two years ago that any atten-
tion was paid to the development of
the small bore sport. Now it is the
coming sport in the rifle world. The
large rifle has many more followers
today but ina very few years the tide
will have swung to the small bore
rifle because it can be shot most any
place there is an open space.
England believed that her riflemen
were invincible at the small bore
game, but that was before they step
ped on the gas and invited our shoot
ers to take a hand. Four times since
1913 has England tried to recover the
Dewar Trophy and failed, and we are

RELIEF MISSION

Worker Tells of Losing Boats and

Supplies to Troops.
London, Sept. 7.-Charges that the
Serbian military forces have stopped
from doing relief work in Montenegro
are made by Alex Devine of Winches-
ter in a statement he has just issued.
Mr.. Divine describes himself as a
friend of Montenegro whose only in
terest in that country is that it shall
have the chance of determining its

recognized allied nations, owing to the
forcible seizure of their country by
Serbian troops" Mr.. Devine denies
the report that he is a paid agent" of
Nicholas, formerly king of Monte

Mr.. Devine alleges that the British
relief mission was prevented from en-
tering Montenegro by Siberian mill

by the Serbs, admits of no delay and
asking that the British government
ensure the safety of the mission Mr..
Devine quotes Colonel Burnham as ac-
cusing the Serbians of seizing the
boats and material of the mission and
of terrorizing his people. Mr. Devine
says:
Colonel Burnham says that he.has
been threatened with assassination and
that the mission is spied on to such
an extent-that even the sick are
afraid to come to the hospital for re-
lief. The Colonel adds: .
when the veil is lifted from the

condition of affairs which will come
as rude shock to those who have
put their confidence and gwen their

SOCIALISTS STICK
TO OLD ISSUES

League OF Nations Issue is Viewed by
Party as Largely Camoufiage, Says
Leader.
Chicago, Sept THE big issue in
the Socialist campaign this fall is as
usual private ownership Of the means
of productions, Otto Branstetter, ma
tional secretary and campaign man
ayers of the Socialist party, said here
tdoay discussing the Socialist cam
paign.
The league of nations issue was
viewed by the Socialists as largely
camouflage," he said. The party felt
that the league question had been in
troduced by the old parties largely to
cloud the issues and keep the peoples
attentino off domestic issues.
Eugene v. Debs, the Socialist presiz
Dental candidate lin prison at At
lant,a Ga, was not advising in the
conduct of the campaign to any ex-
tent. Use was being made in party
literature of what he said to Socialists
visiting him.
The chief speaker in the campaign
is the vice presidential candidate, Sey-
| mour Stedman, of Chicago, Reinforced
by 40 speakers or more under the ma
tional organization. He has complet-

September 1 started for the Pacific
coast. After making a round of the
central states he plans to go east
about October for the balance of the
| campaign.
Secretary Branstette said the party
| expected to be on the ballot in prac-
/ tically every state where it has pre-
viously had a vote of any consequence
1t does not expect at this time to get
on the ballot in Vermont, Louisiana
New Mexico, South Dakota, Idaho and
possibly in several other states in the
south and west.
The three big states this fall from
| the Socialist standpoint, Branstetter
said, are New York, Wisconsin and
Oklahoma. He said the party ex-
pected to poll a larger vote in these
states than ever before.
A large part of the party member
ship outside of the foreign language
declarations has come back, the So
cialist executive reported, referring
| to the split last fall, which resulted in
formation of the Communist party
| and the Communist Labor party.
