Paris, Sept. 1.-THE unsatisfactory con-

last few years. Could they obtain direct
and quick communication with the home
governments tangles would be straighten-
ed out, but under the present conditions
this seems to be IMPOSSIBLE.
An argument advanced against the pro-
posed conference is the difficulty Of the
powers being represented by men fully
conversant with all the latest phases of
the Far Eastern question. Some Of the
details which would be urged in connec-
ton with the peace terms are discussed in

withdrawn and this is believed to indicate
that the future of China must be decided
by an international commission in some
foreign capital.

Chinese Maritime Customs. has informed
the foreign generals that they must be
prepared for future hostilities, that the
Chinese troops are concentrating and
moving on the line Of communication be-

thought trouble might be looked for by
November.
General Chaffee believes Pekin has suf-
icient troops to hold cut against any at
tack.
Prince Ching informed Mr.. Conger that
the Emperor is anxious to return to Pekin
and make all proper preparations. The
Prince says tho Emperor and the entire
court are in small villages sixty miles

The left arm should be extended nearly to
its full reach. The gun should lie across
the body. The right elbow should be on
level with the lower edge of the ear,
the right cheek against the stock, cud-

his gun, not away from it, and therefore
should learn forward slightly. If the
left arm is far extended it does much to
prevent the wabble.
When shooting in the field at such
game as deer, bear. turkeys, rabbits. or
other more or less uncertain targets, the
rifieman requires an open rear sight. one
whose cleft is coarse. the object being
to get view of the front sight as quick

complicated sighting mechanisms will not
