884 In forwarding the tingapore scores, Lieut. F. M. Elliot, Hon. Secretary of the Singapore Rifle Association, says:
"We have had considerable difficulty in getting together a team to shoot this y ar, as the Balestier Range on which this Associa- tion shoots is now closed for alterations owing to an accident through a bullet going over the Stop Butt, and we should have been compelled to again ask yon for an extension of time if Col. Teversham, 3rd M.L.I., had not kindly placed his Range at our disposal for a week. This naturally left our team rery short of practice and if we had not had beautiful shooting weather we are afraid our score would have been worse than it was. We shall be glad to hear from you whether the present time of year is the most suitable for you to shoot the match in future years. It suits us very well in Singapore but the reason I ask is that it will be necessary to arrange so that our Volunteer Musketry Course will not clash."

It appears to be now certain, says the N.-C. THE SYDNEY STAKES.-A Sweepstake of yen Daily News, that H.E. Li Chin-fang, Ex-20 each with yen 250 added; for all horses; Minister to Japan and adopted son of Viceroy weight for age; country breds and Australian Li Hnug-chang, will not go abroad, at least for subscription horses that have not won more three years yet to come, as a Minister to any than o races 7lbs allowance. Three-quarters of foreign countries, H.E. having for the past
a mile. couple of years or so steadily refused appo nt- ment as Minister, first, to the United States, then to Great Britain, and third-not long ago -to succeed Yang Ju at the Court of St. Petersburg. With reference to the latter post, it is stated that it was offered twice to H.E., who is often known as Lord" Li, but that owing to it having been hinted that going this time to Russia he would be expected to complete the secret arrangements set in motion by his adopted father in Peking, H.E. Li Chin-fang foresaw the questionable position he would hold in the eyes of his countrymen and wisely and firmly refused the post. The Russophiles are therefore now looking about for la man after their own heart to do this business for them.
