[By COL. BOGEY.] ,
Albert A. Wert is still the shining i
light in the goat tournament at Reser-1 ]
voir. Wert jumped up from position ] 1
No. 10 to No. 4.
Zimmerman loses no opportunity to
tie an additional knot or two in his
secure position at the head of the sea-, <
son handicap tournament. Saturday ; 1
"Zimmie" added another four points i
to his total of 16, and now his nearest
rival, is Vint with 11 points.
History repeated itself in some cases '
on Saturday at the Harrisburg Coun- j
try Club when the goat board tourna
ment was played over again. Borne- j
body lost the previous scores and play
had to be repeated, to the good-na
tured discontent of those who had
previously turned In record scores.
In the city championship qualifying
scores at Reservoir, H. W. Perry man- :
aged to maintain his lead of one
stroke over young Zimmerman and
won the qualifying medal. On June
17 Perry finished his 18 in 83 to Zim
merman's 84, and on Saturday both
turned in cards of 78, due to the im
proved condition of the course.
Drawings Saturday have brought;
Perry and Devine together in the first j
match of the championship series, j
Longenecker is said to have the easiest!
bracket of the first 16 and should go;
right through to the final without
much trouble.

LIVELY BASEBALL
Saturday Game Includes Sen
sational Pitching; Long Hits j
and Some Big Scores
In addition to the usual number of
league games in the upper end of the '
county, Saturday's program Included j
twelve amateur battles. It was the j
first ideal day for baseball. All fields j
were In good shape, and while the i
players have not rounded into the best
form, fast work was In evidence.
In the Motive Power League Harris
burg WO9 over Meadows, score 4 to 3,
and by reason of Philadelphia defeat
ing Trenton, score 3 to 2, the local team
Is tied up with Tigers for first place.
It looks like a battle between Harris
burg and Trenton for first honors. New
York shut out Baltimore, score 2 to 0.
Wilmington handed a whitewash to
Camden. Score 1 to 0. Frey's pitching
brought the answer for Harrisburg. His
support was ragged at Intervals.

Dauphin - Perry League, having lost
one game out of seven. The leaders
walked all over Duncannon Saturday,
winning by a score of 11 to 1. Halifax
gave Newport a Jolt, taking the game
by a score of 9 to 0. Dauphin became
a strong contender for second place by
defeating Millersburg, score 8 to 4. Gil
day's home run hit, and his fielding
and pitching were the big features of
Saturday's game.
Two games were played in the Dau
phin-Schuylkill League. Tremont trim
med Lykens, score 3 to 2. It was a
battle between pitchers Harris and
Irving. Alsbach of Tremont was the
sensational feature, putting up a bril
liant game at short. Wllliamstown
won from Tower City, score 5 to 3.
Wllliamstown outbatted their oppon
ents.
The sensatton In amateur circles on
! Saturday was pitcher O'Connor, of
1 Llnglestown, who fanned eighteen men
in the game with Rosewood A. C. The
( latter lost by a score of 4 to 2. Rose
-1 wood did not have their regular line
! up. Both teams put up a fast fielding
game.

| A., won another game, West Falrvlew
1 losing out, score 10 to 2. Eveler was
; hit for four scattered safeties. He
fanned twelve men.
The State Highway Department team
was given a trimming by the Hick-A
--' Thrifts, score 13 to 9. Both teams
| fielded a loose game. Hits counted for
j runs when errors put men on bases.
New Cumberland's winning stride
continues. Through the effectiveness
of Davis In pinches and the hitting of
Rudy, Hummelstown lost out, score 5
to 2. "Shorty" Miller Is captain of the
New Cumberland team and has a bunch
of fast players. The New Cumberland
Juniors lost a pitchers' battle to Bel
mont. The Juniors outbatted their ri
vals, but lost opportunities by slow
base running. .
West End A. C. added to their lau
rels by winning over Highspire, score
8 to 4. Winter fanned fifteen men and
allowed but five hits. Harrisburg Park
hit the ball and won an easy victory
over Middletown, score 8 to 1. At

MOBILIZATION IS~
BEING HURRIED
Several Regiments Will Be on
Way Soon; Troop Trains
Have Right of Way
By Associated Press
Washington, D. C., June 2 6.—Speed
ing up of the mobilization of national
guardsmen was reported to the War
Department to-day from nearly all
sta.tes and word was expected momen
tarily by the militia division that the
first contingents had started for the
border.
Major-General Leonard Wood, com
manding the eastern department, re
ported that he expected several New
York and Ma! sachusetts regiments
ready to start during the day.
General Scott, chief of staff, said
elaborate and smoothly working ma
chinery was in operation to expedite
transportation of the national guard
to the South. The troops and supply
trains have the right of way, even to
sidetracking limited passenger trains.
Will Sidetrack Limiteds
Physical examination and lack of
equipment is delaying militia of some
states. It is pointed out that state au
thorities and not the federal govern
ment are rsponsible for arty shortage
of uniforms, rifles and other accouter
ments, the regulations requiring that
sufflcienVquarttltios be on hand at all
times to equip militia units up to their
peace strength.
Gen. Wood Reported to
Intend Getting All Militia
to Border This Week
® New York, June 26.
The Massachusetts troops will be
moved from Frpmingham, Mass., over
the New Haven road und transferred
here to the Pennsylvania railroad,
joining the New York and New Jersey
commands.
It was reported tliat another urgent
call had l>een received from Washing
ton that all the state militia in the
East l>e prepared quickly for entrap
ment toward the border. These num
ber about 128,000.
It was said to be General Wood's
purpose to have all these trodps
started for the border before the end
of the week.
These include: Florida, Second In
fantry; Virginia, First Infantry and
First Signal Corps; Maryland, First
Infantry; New Hampshire, First In
fantry; Maine, Second Infantry; Dis
trict of Columbia, Third Infantry, and
Pennsylvania one brigade, one bat
talion engineers, one battalion signal
corps, one fleld hospital and one am
bulance corps; Delaware, First and
Second Battalions of First Infantry.
Recruits and soldiers without equip
ment are to be left behtnd.
General Wood to-day sent orders to
the ndjutants general of all the states
In his department instructing them
that troops should depart at minimum
war strength where commands cannot
.be nurd to the maximum except by
t&lOpg untrained and ua»guippsa mefi.

[Continued From First Page]
any movement of American troops in
Mexico except in retirement toward
the border is the real issue.
Avowal of Hostile Action
The Washington Government con
strues this action as a formal avowal
of deliberately hostile action. It de
mands that If this is Carranza's pur
pose he so state through regular diplo
matic channels.
Aside from the diplomatic impro
priety of making a subordinate mili
tary officer a medium of communica
tion, the State Department recalled
numerous instances where the acts of
military commanders have been later
disavowed by the de facto govern
ment and it is known that many of
Carranza's commanders are not fully
under his control.
Congressmen Informed
Members of Congress were In
formed of all phases of the situation
during the day by the chairmen of
the Foreign Affairs Committees, who
had a long conference with the Presi
dent last night. The President then
iOdicated that he might desire to ad
dress the House and Senate soon but
no steps toward arranging for a joint
session will be taken until the Car
ranza reply is received. It is under
stood that Mr. Wilson plans to tell
Congress, If Carranza adheres to his
present avowed policy, that the de
facto government of Mexico is wag
ing war against forces of the United
States employed in protecting the
American border.
P. LORILLARD COMPANY

Ain't It The
| Truth?
You don't listen very
hard when a total
failure tells you how
to get rich:
You don't call in a
plumber when you
want your pants
pressed, nor a piano
tuner when the baby
has the mumps:
You don't want any
wrong numbers in
the smoke line,
either:
You want MECCA!
Ain't It The
Truth?
V| CIGARETTES
Our experts in
Turkey watch the
planting and culti
vation of the tobac
cos for MECCA.
That's why the
MECCA Turkish
Blend is always
the same.
