Destroyers Delight Britons.

LONDON, Aug. 22-The oceangoing
destroyers, alone of all the vessels en-
gagged in England S recent naval man
euvers, made showings with which the
admiralty was satisfied.
While the craft of the mimic at
lacking fleet were rafting their crews
about like dice in SO many boxes, in
North sea gale, and the defending
vessels were scudding for safe berths
in the nearest harbors, the destroyers
sloshed gayly up and down the coast,
their country's sole guardians against
an invading foe.
So the admiralty has prepared plans
for six new boats of the destroyer type
and will have them built as soon as
the British navy yards can complete
the work.
Serious consideration is also being
given to the ACCESSIBILITY of abandoning
two cruisers already laid down and
constructing four more destroyers in
stead.

Disguised With olympics.

LONDON, August 22.-The British
press is much disguised with the OIym-
pie games. Such contests stir up
troubles rather than promote interna-
tional harmony, many influential pa
pers declare.
sit was believed that the rivalry in
sports would tend to increase friend

says the Liverpool Post, voicing the
popular sentiment, "but it seems very
doubtful if the games just concluded
viii have that effect. The Americans,
the French and the Germans are all
grumbling about something or other.
Had not Dorando been consoled by the

ulate international animosities instead
of promoting internationl friendship,

posal to King Victor of Italy to put out
Vesuvius by system of subterranean
canals, Naples is protesting vigorously
against the extinction of its star at

Several civic and commercial bodies
have already sent communications to
his majesty denouncing the professor $
suggestion as positively vandalistfc and
declaring that they prefer the present
VesuviuJ, with all its faults, to a dead
volcano which no one would ever take
the trouble to visit.

scientist of unquestioned attachments,

QUEER ODDS AND ENDS
FROM EUROPEAN CABLES

the king at Belgrade and is now hurry
ing to Paris to engage passage across
the Atlantic, the story is generally ae-
cepted as true.
Spiridonovic is not Seryian, but a
Russian officer, and from this it is con
ieetured that accounts of the interest
the ear is taking in Peter S plans have
also foundation in fact.
About the younger son, Alexander,
not much is known. Crown Prince
George has a highly spectacular repu-
tation, however. He is much addicted
to practical jokes involving the shoot
ing and stabbing of court attaches.
He drinks and CANDLES, too, and of his
moral character no one ever took the
trouble to say a good word.
Money would put the Servian court
on vastly more satisfactory basis
than at present, but no European
princess with much of it cares for an
alliance with the Karageorgeyitch
family. Spiridonovie has an idea that
daughters of American millionaires
may be less particular.

Camei Races.

Camel races are held regularly in the
south of Algeria. where valuable prizes
are offered for the encouragement of
the breed of racers, and as much inter
est is taken in their preparation and
performance as in that of race horses
in this country. The racing camels are
the result of very careful breeding
through many generations, aud in size
temper and appearance they are SO
different from the ordinary beast of
burden that they might almost be con-
sidered different race of animals.
Perhaps the most conspicuous char
acterlstic of the ordinary camel is its
extreme slowness. Nothing on earth
will ever induce it to hurry. A twenty
dollar note will buy very fair specl
men. but for mehari. or racing camel
FIVE or ten times that sum is required
