BY EARL R. GOODWIN.
Ties wore the order ''of the day In
the opening- aay's events of the Paciflo
Coast handicap trapshootlng tourna
ment held on the Everdlng Park traps
of the Portland Oun Club yesterday.
Four nimrods finished on top in the
100-bird race ror the Paciflo Coast in
troductory prizes, while two were out
in front for the grand total average
on the 140 registered targets.
O. N. Ford, of San Jose, Cal.; Peter
H. O'Brien, of Portland; H. Lorenson,
of Newman, Cal., and Hugh McElroy,
of Spokane, "Wash., completed the first
five 20-blrd events with the same score
96 "dead ones" out of a possible 100.
In the following 20-bird shoot-oft Ford
and Lorenson ,kept up the pace by
tying for first,' while O'Brien and Mc-
, Elroy lied for the third place trophy.
Another shoot-off at 20 birds, which
rounded out the 140 registered targets
of the day, found McElroy breaking 1
while O'Brien dropped two, but again
Kord could not shake his teammate in
the run for first place.
Oregon Man Is Fourth.
Another and still another 20-btrd
shoot-off was called for before Ford
was able to win the Pacific Coast in
troductory first prize, and Lorenson had
to be content with the second place
cup, McElroy third and O'Brien fourth.
Four contestants divided the high
money in the 10 pairs of doubles com
petition, an added attraction. Because
no medals or cups were up it was not
necessary to hold any shoot-offs, the
winners merely splitting the money
four ways. Charles Leith. of Wood
burn, Or.; J. E. Rice, of Bellinghara,
Wash.; W. W. McCornack, of Eugene,
Or, and E. J. Fannin, of Sand Point,
Idaho, smashed 18 targets out of the
20. Leith missed his two out of the
first four thrown to him, and then went
straight
The long run of the-tourney so far
was placed after the record of Fred
A. Dryden. the Spokane professional,
who yesterday tied Hugh E. Poston, of
Pan Francisco, for high man in the
100-bird contest, but lost out by one
hird in the grand average out of the
J 40 registered targets. Each cracked
!8 out of the 100. while Poston was
good for 137 out of the 140, with Dry
den at 138.
High Amateur Score Divided.
High amateur of the day in the
Keven 20-target affairs was settled be
tween O. N. Ford, of San Jose, and H.
lorenson, of Newman, Cal., each with
3 34. E. J. Chlngren, the Spokane
banker, who has not had a trap gun
in, his hands for almost a year, made
a remarkable Fhowintr by pocketing
J 33, as did Hugh MpElroy, also of the
Inland Empire city.
The second day's shooting will open
this morning promptly at 9 o'clock
with the Pacific Coast overture as the
first number. Four 25-bird races make
up the overture, while the Pacific
Coast preliminary handicap, a match
of 100 birds, will be started Immediate
ly after the overture has been com
pleted. In case of a tie. In the over
lure 23-bird, shoot-offs will be required
until the first three high guns are
determined.

WITH TROOP A. Calextco. Cal.. Sept.
12. (Special.) Troop A took a 20-mlle
border patrol ride today within three
feet of the Mexican line. Captain
George A. White, instead of taking his
troop on the drill ground, mounted al
most the entire organization for the
march along- the small stakes which
mark the boundary, traveling over
seemingly endless sand dunes.
About half a mile from camp the
troop left the main traveled road. At
times the dust rose in such Volumes
that only with the most carefal watching-
could the border stakes be seen. At
various points where halts were made.
the troopers amused themselves by
standing as close to the line as possible.
Reaching over the line and gathering
up a handful of sand from the Mexican
side, they would stand on it and pro
claim that they were standing- on Mexi
can soil.
Discharged Men Leave.
Lance Corporal Thomas Sweeney and
Trooper Thomas H. French, the two
members of Troop A who received their
discharges at Campo while en route to
Calexico, and who since have tried to
have their discharge reconsidered by
the 'War Department, will leave tonight
for Portland. Both troopers were keen.
y disappointed and are quitting the
troop with deep regret.
The troopers applied for discharge
while at San Diego because they had
decided that playing the soldier game
there was not learning real soldiering.
When Troop A received orders to move
and it looked like the troop was going
to see the real thing, they applied for
a reconsideration of their discharges.
Troopers Sweeney and French both be-
leved they were going to be allowed
to stay with Troop A. but the Western
Department willed otherwise, and they
were ordered to appear at the camp
quartermaster headquarters and get
their transportation.
Because the troop cook, Guy B. Chap
man, applied for a discharge and It
was granted, there have been several
changes in the messhouse. Richard R.
Vineyar, who has held the position as
mess sergeant since the troop left Port-
and, on his own request has been re
duced to ranks and Corporal George
S. Durant, was appointed mess sergeant.
Shoe Salesman Company Cook.
The position of troop cook has been
filled by Trooper Cyril P. Maglnnls.
Trooper Maginnls in private life ls one
of Portland's star shoo salesmen, but
he has shown that ha knows Just as
much about cooking as he does about
the quality of shoe leather.
Both Captain White and Captain
Helms, of Battery A, Oregon Field Ar
tillery, received telegrams from Port
land today requesting that both com
manders telegraph Camp Withycombe
at once and state the number of re
cruits needed to bring both organiza
tions up to full war strength and to
take the place of those soldiers who
have received their discharge. Captain
White telegraphed for 15 and Captain
Helme asked that 28 recruits be sent
to him.
Like most of the organizations in
Camp, Battery A took a long road march
today. Captain Helme hunted out all
of the rough country, he could find to
exercise the battery and before the
artillery soldiers returned to camp they
had covered a distance of nine miles.
The battery crossed over a great
number of bridges thrown across the
big irrigation ditches, with the ap
proaches on either side very steep. The
march was to teach the wheel horses
to hold back the big guns and the cais
sons without the use of a brake.

R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co Winston-Salons, N. C
Copyright 1916 by R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co.
Withycombe yesterday. For a time it
threatened to. become serious.
Company C, of Portland, was the first
to complete its muster roll and to take
the oath. The boys, evidently feeling
jubilant-over the fact that they were
the first, formed in a serpentine col
umn and started to parade through the
streets of the other companies, calling
upon their comrades to iall In line
and follow their example.
Football Rush Excites.
The men of the other companies
greeted them with cheers and laughter.
All proceeded well until they reached
Company M's street. There they en
countered a oarricaae or men across
the street entrance.
Company C stood back for a moment.
then formed in football formation and
rushed.
A sharp struggle followed. In an in
stant scores of men were sprawling on
top ot one another on the ground.
Sergeant Waahburn seemed to be
the leader of Company M. He urged
the men to repel tne invaders.
Eustics Grooe, formerly Captain of
the Lincoln High School football team
and a member of Company C. sent the
sergeant to the ground by executing a
flying tackle. .Private Groce Is suffer
ing' some severe bruises on his ribs.
Members of his company say that he
was kicked when he was down.
Minor Caanaltlcs Reported.
Roy Lawrence, of Company C. ls
nursing a black eye. A few other minor
injuries complete tho casualty list.
It ls apparent, though, that the in
cident has engendered considerable til
feeling between the members of the
two companies; Evidence of this is the
expressed, determination of Company C
to make another raid on company M s
street.
Company M brought a goat from the
Mexican border as a mascot. Company
C insists on getting Company M's goat
both literally and figuratively.
It is plain that the members of Com
pany M resented the attempt of an
other company to influence or coerce
them, through an open demonstration.
to enlist in the new service.
Company M is composed largely of
business men, professional men and
men who are active in public life at
Salem. It has 17 or 18 lawyers in its
rank a These men say that they have
suffered tremendous losses to their prl
vate business on aocount of their ab
sence on the border and feel now that
having done their "bit" they should be
permitted to withdraw from the regi
ment. They say others are ready to
take their places.
Coercion BTot Favored.
Regimental officers declare that no
member of the regiment will be co
erced into re-enllstment. They point
out. however, that the men who do not
take the new Federal oath sfill will be
subject to. duty as state troops. At the
same time it Is admitted that men of
this status would be of very little use
to the state, as they would not be con
nected with any organized military
body.
It ls probable that the men who fail
to take the Federal oath ultimately will
be mustered out of the service entirely.
Some objection has arisen, too. among
members of various companies to the
three-year reserve provision prescribed
by the news regulations. Under this
provision the men will be subject to call 1
by the Federal Government at any time
within three years following the ex
piration of their enlistment.
However, this objection ls met par
tially by the credit given the men al
ready in the service for the time they
have served under their old enlistment.
Credit Given for Service.
A man who has served two years in
the old guard, for instance, is required
to remain ofoly one year under the new
enlistment.
Under the new law the President of
the United States will have authority
to call out the troops for Federal serv
ice without the formality of asking per
mission of the states concerned and
without giving the men the option of
enlisting In the Federal service.
They virtually become reserve troops
for the regular Army. Colonel Mc
Laughlin and Lieutenant-Colonel May
made this situation clear to the men
yesterday before any of them were
asked to enlist.
The new regulations also place the
officers and men on one-fourth the
regular Army pay. A Captain will get
$600 a year, a First Lieutenant $500 and
a Second Lieutenant $400. It is no
secret In camp that the present set of
officers are eager to continue the regi
ment and its respective units intact.
A mild sensation was created in camp
yesterday when it was whispered about
that Captain Porter, of Company E,
had resigned or was about to resign.
Captain Porter has not resigned
yet," was the only comment made by
Colonel McLaughlin late yesterday aft
ernoon.

STUDENTS SEE SLIDES
Resignation Is Probable.
It ls understood, however, that Cap
tain Porter was Incapacitated from
duty part of the time while the regi
ment was on the border and that many
of the men objected to continuing in
the service under hla command. He ls

Lieutenant Feldman la in temporary
command and probably will be elected
Captain.
Captain Kenneth P. Williams, of the
regular Army, arrived yesterday and
will begin on Friday to muster the
men out or the regular service.
The entire regiment will pass in re
view before Governor Withycombe on
the parade grounds at 8 o clock this
afternoon. A large attendance of vis
itors from various parts of the state is
expected.
Tomorrow the regiment will come to
Portland on a special train to partici
pate in the reception that has been
planned in honor of the boys by the
civilian population of the state.
CARMEN TO HEAR DEBATE
C. B. S. Wood and G. A. Brown Will
Talk Today at tho Oaks.
A feature ' of the afternoon pro
gramme at the Oaks today will be a
debate between Colonel C E. 8. Wood
and George Arthur Brown. Colonel
Wood will speak for tho Democratic
party and Mr. Brown for the Repub
lican at 2:80. Oswald west will speak,
There will bo games, music and amuse
ments of various kinds. Admission
will be free.
Nelson K. Jacobson will go to Carl
ton, Yamhill County, to address a Re
publican rally at that place Thursday
night.
One of the unique features of the
campaign is the revival of the torch
light parade. Not since the campaign
of 1896 has the torchlight procession
been in vogue to any extent, but thi
year is likely to see a general revival
of the old method of arousing cam-
paisn enthusiasm.
Julean P. Arnold, Who Has Lived In
Orient for 20 Years, Tells of
Growing National Spirit and
General Awakening.
A republican form of government is
not a new experiment in China, accord
ing to Julean H. Arnold, United States
commercial attache to the Bureau of
Foreign and Domestic Commerce, who
lectured at the Lincoln mgn ocnogi
last night.
China had a republic- between 3000
and 4000 years ago, even before the
Greeks and the Romans had begun to
consider the first principles of popular
government, and now, after a'cycle of
thousands of years, they are baok try
ing it out again.
This was only one of an Innumerable
array of interesting facts about China
which Mr. Arnold gave,- ror ne nas
been In the Orient for nearly 20 years
and he knows his China "like a book,"
having traveled throughout all its
provinces, even to the far districts of
Thibet.
The new emergence of a National
spirit ls a matter of only a few recent
years, he said. wnen 1 iirst went io
China the neople took no notice of Na
tional holidays and .the Chinese flag
was never displayed. Now everywhere
the flag is in evidence and there is a
growing spirit of nationalism."
The unconquerable quality of the
Chinese he showed by calling atten
