LADS NOT SUCH
BAD MARKSMEN
In Rifle Competition Held
Among All Schols All Over

RESULTS ARE MADE PUBLIC
Interesting Figures Showing
How President's Administra

| Results of the second annual compe-

■ paratorv public and private schools of
■the United States for the “Astor” cup
Hand the rifle shooting team champion*
I ship for 1910 have been received in San
i Antonio. Here the I'eaeock Military
(college competed, making a score of
1 1499. The highest score was 1821 and
| the lowest 1148.
This match, which is held under the
1I jurisdiction of the national association,
(is shot by school teams on home ranges
’under the supervision of judges appoint
jed by the national association. The
(targets used in the match are forward
led to the head qua iters of the national
! association and the scores determined
iby a committee appouinted for tha 1 pur-
I pose.
| The mat-h was open to teams of 10
(pupils from any public or private
| school, not conferring a degree. Each
bov firing 10 shots standing and 10
j shots prone at 50 feet on a target hav
ing a bullseye counting 10, one-half
inch in diameter, with nine graduated
■ circles counting from nine to one, us
| ing a .22 caliber rifle with open mili
tary sights. Forty-two teams entcted
(the match, but eight schools either did
(not compete or failed to send in their
[scores; in several cases schools entered
two teams.
These schools cover a territory em
bracing the entire United States,
stretching from New York, Baltimore,
Philadelphia and Washington across the
icontinent to Los Angeles and San Ra
!fae). California, and from Portland,
i Maine, south to San Antonio, Texas.
Goes to Public School.
For the second time the trophy went
to a public school of the city’ qf New
York, thus demonstrating the fact that
the rifle shooting now being carried on
in these schools, under the auspices of
the Public Schools Athletic League, is
developing some fine marksmen. The
scores of the winning team compare fa
vorably with those of the college and
civilian club teams which shoot under
similar conditions.
It will be noted also that the second
. team was from the public high schools
of New York city. The scores then take
i a considerable drop until it would ap
pear that there was another class com
peting. The third, fourth, fifth and
sixth teams were from military acade
mies where rifle practice is earned on
as a part of the curriculum.
The DeWitt Clinton high school of
New York, the winner of the mat:b,
has an age average of 17 years and 1
months; their score of 1821 showed an
average of 182.1 of a possible 200 per
boy. By military count the score would
be 955 or two points better than the
winning score of last year, made by
he Morris high school of New York,
who were second this year with a score
of 1802. A member of the DeWitt Clin
ton team also carried off honors for
the best individual scores—William
Krefeld having made a score of 93
standing and 97 prone or a total of
190. The best standing score was 93,
ma le by Brown ami W. Krefeld of
De Witt Clinton high school, and H.
Linicus of Morris high school. Five
boys tied with the top score of 96 for
prone shooting —H. Wilson of the Went
woith Military Academy; E. Abrahams
of the Harvard Military School; R. Ad
ams of the Hitchcock Military Acade
my; M. Cohen of the De Witt high
school and William Carlisle of the
Stoneham (Maes.) high school.
Rifle shooting among the schoolboys
of the country is rapidly increasing in
popularity. The president has declared
his belief that training the schoolboys
in marksmanship is a sound principle
for national defense, and the secretary
of war. in his last report, said:
“The encouragement Of rifle prac
tice among our citizens and schoolboys
is of the greatest importance in this
country where preparedness for war is
largely based on the employment of an
army of volunteers, and wisely framed
laws will give a healthy stimulus to
this branch of military preparation.”

We have no secrets, madam. We are to tell how you—if you had

Get the choicest of Michigan beans, picked over by hand.
Get only the whitest, the plumpest, the fullest-grown. Have
them all of one size.
You will need to pay several times what some beans
would cost, but they're worth it.
Soak the beans over night, then parboil them.
Now conies the impossible. The beans must be baked
in live steam, and you lack it. The steam must be super
heated to 245 degrees.
Dry heat won’t do. You can't supply enough dry heat
without burning the beans to a crisp.
Then the beans must be baked in small parcels—we bake
in the cans. That’s so the full heat of the oven can attack
every particle. Otherwise the beans will not be digestible.
They will ferment and form gas, as do your home-baked
beans now.
Bake the tomato sauce with the beans—bake it into them.
That's how we get our delicious blend.

PRESIDENT. DIAZ
Fifth of May Aniversary Will
Be Celebrated for Two
Days Here.
AN ELABORATE
San Pedro Park Has Been
Transformed Into Veritable
Mexican Village.
The forty-eighth anniversary of the
triumph of the Mexican army over the
French, occurred May 5, 1862,
nt the battle of Puebla, is being cele
brated on a grand scale by the Mexi
can colony of San Antonio. The event
began today and will continue until
the night of May 7, at San Pedro park,
under the auspices of the Socied.ld
Union de Trabajadores.
An elaborate program has been ar
ranged and “Cinco do Mayo,” as it is
termed in the Mexican language, prom
ises to be a big event, not only through
out the republic of Mexico, but also in
San Antonio. The name of General
Zaragoza will ring with joy throughout
the ranks of the sons and daughters of
the sister republic.
San Pedro Park has been transform
ed into a veritable Mexican village,
with artistically arranged booths and
the national colors intermingled with
the Stars and Stripes.
The celebration began at 1 o’clock
this afternoon at the park. Dur
ing the forenoon a committee from tho
society visited Sr. Enrique Ornelas,
local Mexican consul, and through him
will forward a dispatch to President
Diaz, extending greetings in honor of
the Cinco <le Mayo.
At 7:30 o’clock the official exercises
will begin at San Pedro park, the
speaking to follow the playing by the
band under the direction of Prof. Au
relio Hores, the grand Zaragoza march.
Following the address on tho battle,
there will be the singing of the nation
al hymn.
The official address will be delivered
bv Sr. Miguel G. Dena in the Mexican
language and an address in English will
follow by T. M. Paschal. Adolfo Do
minguez.’ as representative of tho
Grand Mexican lodge, will speak. Mi
guel Morales deliver a talk. Music
and other amusements will be >n
progress during the evening. Special
iwograms have been arranged for each
of the three days’ celebrations.

the can with cold water. That stops the baking instantly,
and sets the blend and savor.
Then you will have beans that are wholly digestible. All
beans will be baked alike, yet not a skin will be broken. The
beans will be nutty because they are whole.
Then the tomato sauce—that's impossible for you. It
must be made from whole, vine-ripened tomatoes, picked when
the juice fairly sparkles.
When you buy the sauce, you rarely know what you are
getting. If it is made from tomatoes picked green, it lacks
zest. If made of scraps from a canning factory, it lacks
richness.
Some tomato sauce is sold ready-made for exactly one
fifth what we spend to make ours.
Our point is this: It isn’t your fault that home-baked
bean*; are mushy and broken—crisped on the top and half
baked in the middle. That they are neither nutty nor mealy
—not even digestible. That they always ferment and form
gas. It is simply your lack of facilities.

to your people. Ask them which beans they want. And be
glad of their choice. For, if they like Van Camp’s, see the
bother you save.
And see what you save on meal bills.

Mr. Rabe says the men who entered
his place were very careful in their se

The lenses stolen include several im

State Excise Official Says the

New York, May s.—Although nnof
ficial estimates of the worth of Mayor
Gaynor's-plan for enforcing the liquor
laws on Sunday have varied, Frederick
Stelle, of the state excise department,

In a letter addressed to the mayor,
Mr. Stelle says: “I want you to know
that a number of our special agents
have reported to me that never in their
experience since the liquor tax law was
enacted in 1896 have they seen such
an effort/to comply with the law on
the part of liquor dealers, as during the
past two Sundays.”
