The most significant feature, however, is the helplessness of the troops in the vicinity. Their number was probably small, but it might have been expected that a trained body of men, presumably well armed, would have made more headway against a practically unarmed and undisciplined horde.

discoursed a selection of pleasing items during the afternoon.

Most of the events on the programme brought forth a large mumber of competitors, and in many instances the races were keenly contested, und the finishes close and exciting. Corporal Andrews of The Buffs did the 100 yards flat race in record time, defeating F. G. Carroll of Cantor, who has won the Challenge Cap fro Fears in succesion. Had the latter sprinter

won yesterday, the cup would have become his property. In the 120 yards hurdle race the Rev. Manndrell won by a length, and established record. His time was 17-2/5 seconds, the previous record time being 18 seconds, which was made by I. J. Wishart in 1907. The thres mile bingole rade saw a close finish, Forbes just managing to snatch first place from G. Leo by

a wheel.

Tan situation at Changsha is still very serious. The reports received hat week that the rints in the provincial capital of Hunan directed against foreigners had been quelled may have been quite correct, but apparently the pacification was far from complete, as latest telegrams announce the resumption of moting, with the portentous addendum that organised bands are operating. In view of these facts there seems good reasons for the grave fears entertained at Peking, and news from the scene of the disturbance will be anxiously awaited.
