LONDON, Feb 9.-It now seems clear that the allies have abandoned the attempt to force the Tchatalja lines in favor of an attempt to capture the Gallopoli peninsula so as to open way by the sea to Constantinople.
 Light is beginning to be shed by brief official dispatches upon the military tactics in the Balkan campaign.
 Reports of attempts of the Turks to land troops along coast seas and the seat of Marmora are now officially ad- mitted. It looks as though Enver Beys mysterious and desperate move was an attempt to effect a landing at Char keui about 35 milas south of Rodosto with the intention of relieving the pressure of the Bulgarian attack on the Bulair lines The Bulgarian movement is causing the Turks serious anxiety.

Veterans, eX-army officers and men, members of the G. A. R. and Con federate Veterans. present heads of the army and militia. rough riders and finally all members of the state rifle clubs-all these will banquet at the Adams next Thursday night pre- paratory to a grand rifle shoot on the local range the first day of the Az tee Sun Fete.
 It is another feature of the festival and a fine one too. It is moreover. the first thing of it's kind ever held, but will definitely not be the last. It is in plain words, some stunt.
 The Phoenix Rifle Club is host at the banquet and promoter of the shoot. It is the object of the club to bring together military, militia and civilian rifle sharps for the benefit of the organizations, to boost shooting and to have one grand good time. Patriot ism, finest sentiment the military fosters. will be emphasized by martial music and flag decorations in the Adams dining hall, and the tales of olden times will fall from the lips of many a hoary haired veteran. Be sides the menu will be the very best the hotel affords, J c. Adams has said it. And if the thing is not one of the best features of the Fete, it will not be the fault of the Phoenix , Rifle club.
 Vice President Thomas R. Marshall will be one of the guests of honor, , Governor Hunt and his staff, includ- ing Adjutant General Harris will be others on the honor list. Visiting /, riflemen from Bisbee Tucson, Doug las Mesa. Prescott, the north and in fact all over the state will be present representing their home clubs at the ! meet and the eat. College men from military institutes, privates from the army and National Guard of Arizona officers and all will be there Over | two hundred guests were counted or ' already, and since the announcement of the feast and shoot yesterday doZ- ems of inquiries have come in to the 1 club, showing that rifle. sharps ir
 Arizona are on the qui vive the in- stant the stunt was made public. The @banquet will be a forerunnel
 of the shoot. which will be held Fri
 day on the range near Hole-in- the ] Rock. The N c. A. range has beer very kindly donated to the Phoeni, ] Rifle Club for the shoot. Dr. Boido
