Special Gable to The Herald.
PARIS, June 1.-THE announcement
that the Japanese used submarines in
the battle of the sea of Japan caused
great interest in French naval circles.
Experiments carried out at Toulon are
regarded as showing that French sub
marines and their crews are the best
in the world.
Five submarines maneuvered below
the surface in a comparatively small
area, six torpedo boats being detailed
to keep close watch. The weather was
fine and the sea particularly clear, in
spite of which the torpedo boats failed
to locate the submarines. The result
is all the more satisfactory as the Ave
submarines included Gustave Eide and
Gymnoti, the two first built in France.
There was no such success in italy.

WAR AMONG MEMBERS

Move to Abolish Pigeon Shooting May

LONDON, June 17.-An unexpected
development has taken place in con-
nection with the recent decision of the
Hurlingham club to abolish pigeon
shooting at the end of the present
season, and it may end in the resigna-
tion of large number of the shooting
members and possibly involve the club
in a protracted legal action.
Among the minority who voted in
favor OF the continuance of pigeon
shooting were a number of the oldest
members, and they have decided to
test the legality of the resolution which
the majority members passed. The po.
sition they take is that the club was
primarily formed for shooting purposes
and point to the rules, which read as
follows:
1.-THE club is instituted for the pur-
pose of providing a ground for pigeon
shooting, polo, and other sports"
A famous lawyer, who is a member
of the club, is stated to have declared
emphatically that the resolution is not
worth the paper it is written on. 1t Is
possible that an injunction may be ap-
piled for, but some of the minority are
in favor of postponing this action until
all the efforts Of compromise have
failed.

in his opening Of cat show at Bord-

1t was more surprising to find Lott
championing the Turk and objecting to
the epithet "unspeakable" in reference

LONDON, June 17.--The marriage Of
Miss Augusta Bellingham and Lord
Butte, July 6, will recall memories of the
vikings of old, for the groom-to-be has
chartered a ship to carry away his
bride to the land of the Scots.
The ceremony will be picturesque.
and above all things 1t will be Scotch
wedding" 1t will be performed at
Castle Bellingham, Ireland.
According to present arrangements
the little village of Castle Bellingham,
in County Louth, is to be devoted to
merrymaking and festivities on a scale
hitherto unknown in its annals dur
ing the week of the nuptial ceremony.
The evening of the ceremony will see
much merrymaking, a pyrotechnic dis
play having been arranged to take place
at Castle Bellingham, and bonflres will
be lit on the neighboring hills.
The vessel which is to convey Lord
Butte and his bride to Scotland, where
they are going to spend their honey
moon, will anchor two miles from the
little fishing village of Annagassan, two
miles from the brides home, to which
place they will be conveyed from the
church in Lord Bute's carriages. Some
idea of the amount of work entailed in
preparation for the occasion may be
gathered from the fact that the bride
groom Is bringing all his own carriages,
servants and retainers from Scotland.
On reaching the sea shore at Anna
gassan the newly married pair will re-
ceive a final hearty send-off from the
tenants of Castle Bellingham estate,
who will be gathered there. Boats are
to be drawn up in readiness to convey
them to the waiting vessel two miles
off, and amid rounds Of cheers from the
tenantry the bride will bid farewell to
the land of her birth.
At the head of the procession of boats.

the bark containing the bride and
bridegroom, manned by rowers attired
in white trousers and jerseys and GRIM
son caps embroidered with the Belling-
ham arms. In the PROV of the vessel
will fly the flag of Erin, while at the
stern the Scotch flag will float in the
breeze.
Immediately following the vessel con-
tanning the newly married couple will
be the boat bearing Lord Bute's four
teen Scotch pipers, who will play ap-
propriate music on their bagpipes till
the steamer is reached.
The wedding will take place at the
Roman Catholic parish church, Kilsar-
an, and the ceremony is to be per-
formed by the Rev. Patrick Fagan.
