atty tell., which answers the san?/e| purpose in its native desert as the camel’s hump, to provide sustene/nce for the beast. This fatty tail is re- garded as the choicest of mutton, and an effort will be made on the Canadian farms to cross the beast with some other native or English f species and obtain a line grade of mutton. The animals were for the most part in separate crates, and at- tracted a great deal of attention along the water front. Several of the rams have ilnely developed horns. Their fur is coarse and shaggy. and of little value by itself. To produce the valuable furs the animals must be crossed with some of the long-wool English species. It is claimed that there' is imported into the United States annually $14,000,000 worth of Persian lamb and thie other furs which these animals are capable of producing. and it is the aim of the owners of the herd to establish a Persian lamb industry in Canada in conjunction with their othler fur pro-
ducing farms.
SAYS DALKAN TREATY
_ MUST BE REVISED.
LONDON, Aug. 8-The Times' Bal-
kan correspondent says the treaty ol peace concluded at Bucharest, com.- pletely. ignores the essential features ofthe distribution of the .various Balkan races in Macedonia and con- sequently is devoid of all elements of pcrmnnnncc. Bulgaria, surrounded by five enemies and reduced to desperat- ion, was, the correspondent says, compelled to assent to their demands und these arrangements cannot be regarded as final. A revision of the treaty of Buchar- est, be added, is obviously necessary in the interest not only of justice, but of the Balkan tranquility and European peace. _

The belief in Japan that an indignity has been suf- fered by the nation is still widely held, but 'the responsible section of the people evidently realize that the road ahead is long and arduous. There is considerable disappointment in official circles at the action of the United States Senate in blocking the arbitration treaty,

GUAIIDING THE CZARWITCH.
, ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 12.-The little Grand Duke Alexis, only son of tue Czar and heir to the turone oi Russia, bncered upon his tenth year to-day, having been horn at Peter- hof, Aug. 12, 1904. In celebration of the anniversary rings were display- ed everywhere to-day and the usual salutes were tired at all the naval and inilltary stations throughout the empire.
it is safe to assert that ino other
boy in the world is guarded so assi- duouely against lurking perils as is the Grand Duke Alexis. Recenh ru- mors of renewed activity on the part of the Nihilllts and Terrorists have caused increased precautions to be takin for the safety of the imperial heir. From the moment that he arises in the morning until he retires at night his every movement is watched over by trusted soldiers. His bodyguard, composed of nity of the most loyal and trusted Cossacks, remains with him all the time. In| the school room, in the play room and in all other chambers of the pal- iice frzquénted by the Grand Duke the soldiers are to be seen standing like statues. When the boy is taken into thefgreat garden to romp and play, the gates are guarded by séntinele, and none may enter without the pass-‘

Under the favorable auspices of efx-I cellent weather, the ainnual rifle prize
ciation of this Island was opened at 1, the Kensington rifle range yesterday ie
province came tothe meeting, the 0 number of competitors being 102. E This number, however, was uotvas m good as was expected, and in conse- quence endeavor is being made to complete the match to-day if possible
For this reason shooting will com- t mence this morning at the early hour t of eight o’clock, when the Prowse in match, which should have begun to- ,, day but was made a start with yes- 0 terday, will be continued. , th With regard to yesterday‘s shooting C
it was of a vcry high standard and t in many an instance precedence on in the prize list had to be decided on value of shots. '1‘lie first 'match to be decided, the Corporation, was won

was the shooting.
One of l.he_scores of 66 was made
by a Cadet-P. Landrlgan, of the lirince of Wales College, with which lie carried off the first prize and th'e cup in the competition promoted sole-l ly for Cadets as an inducement to them- to go in for riilesbootlng; those cadets who competed in the Corpora- tion belng allowed to count the samel score' for 'their' o'wn"comp§tltlon.l Ef Auld took second place -in the Ca-
dets’ competition with 28 pts.
More good scoring took place in the
Frank R. Heartz competition, the richest in prizes of all the events. This produced some keen -comiietitionj and three men made the same totals for first place, Gur. J. D. McRae, Pte. L. R. Allen and Sgt. A. Mc- Cabe-who each made 67 pts. But f while the first two had the same C Fnngn f-Otuls, 33 at 600 yds. and a 34 at 200 yds. Mr. McCabe's scores
200 yards. Therefore, on the princi-
ra/nge, he was counted out by the other two; and the apparent tie in their case was dissolved by the reck- oning ol the value of the shots in their inverse order; McRae thus win- ning the valuable llrst prize of $25, E Allen taking the second prize of $20 E and McCabe the third of $18. In E this competition there were also two F scores od 66 pts. and no fewer than L eleven of 64 pts. each. J

AMHERST, Auguet11.- An effi-
cient fire department with an exc- ellent equipment, saved the town to- night from a fire which at first look- ed as if ‘it would sweep out the larg- est wooden building block in the town. At six 0'clock fire broke out in the mlllinery parlors of Mrs. Al- lan in the block owned by Mrs. S.B. Anderson. ,Victoria street, the lower portion of which section and the cou- tents were completely destroyed. The mlllinery parlors of Mle. Badineau, adjoining, were also badly damaged by smoke, as also were Campbell and Connell, electrical supplies, who ac- cupy lmrt of the block. They also suffered considerably from smoke and water. The upper part of the build- ing was more or less damaged by water and smoee. The damaged building is tho' center of a row tall wooden buildings extending from the corner of Victoria and Eddy streets, for several blocks ending at the old Douglas store. Had not the fire been suppressed at once, this part ofthe town would have bein wiped out. The loss, which amounts to about $2.500, is understood to be partly covered by insurance.
