During the week a special feature has boon introduced in the shape of a tug of war contest, in which there has been some very exciting tussles. The final pull takes place to-night between a team representing Scot- land, composed of members of the Police Forer, and a team fromthe Asiatic Artillery. These teams are pretty evenly matched and the competition should therefore be of great interest. Last night there was a large audience, and a very interesting and Antertaining programme was performed. During the arcuing a few of the local sports were very much in evidence in the ring.
