water which thus forms part or the animal

articles or food Water is abundant In the
blood and Secret0ns where its presence is In

Duncan, 'we can readily understand why per-

MORE GOOD SHOOTING BY AMERICANS AT WIN


Caolegrams from Wimbledon yesterday, after
our report closed, say: "Dr. Scott won the Sec
ond stage of the Albert competition at 1900
yards, with score OF 20, defeating Humphrey
by one point. Dr. Scott's final shot was much
applauded. The other notable scores are: Jack
son g., Gerrish &c. Boyd &c, Martin Smith 65 w.
Rigby g. Young 62, and Evans CA. Halford
missed his first two shots, scoring sc. The wind
was very variable and the light bad. Hyde, Far
row and Brown retired from the contest before
they had completed their scores. The competl-
uon for the Albert prize was restricted 20 those
who won prizes On the first stage. The Albert
competition is the principal smali-bore event of
the meeting. The Americans have taken all the
1Ist prizes In to-day small bore events. la the
shooting for the third series OF extra prizes.
Hyde, Brown aid FarTow were tied, and viii
shoot on tomorrow, but merely to decide who
shall have the first choice of prizes. Farrow
won Ia shooting of the tie for the ANY Rifle"
Wimbledon cup, scoring IL in three extra
shots; Young scored 10 and Evans 9. 1t is now
q o'clCck p M raining, and the targets are al
most Invisible"
At meeting OF the American team last night
the following were selected TO shoot In The
match against the English team next Saturday,
Qhe voting was by ballot:) Messrs. Scott, Brown,
FarTow, Clark, Gerrish, Jackson, Hyde and
Laird. The reserve VIII consist OF Messrs Dud-
time, as is very possible, Dudley viii shoot In
bis stead. 1t is thought that the good shooting
OF the Americans today had a great effect on
the English team. At the team practice to.
morrow the American team will shoot a fun
round, If possible, but Farrow has bad cold
and II is hoped that their scoring Will have
moral effect upon the Englishmen.
