Constable Phil). pen of Wiugham, visited the burg on Friday lass and rounded up the buucb, and secured a confession from one of the xnernbers. This lad admitted eteal- ing the watch, but said he had smas.t- ed it and thrown it away. 'Phis story is not believed, however, as another bigger boy has been seen with the time piece in his possession, The trip rope connected with the hay fork at Mr. Ballagh's barn was cut to pieces re- cently, and the gang gets credit also for this piece of vandalism.

The roll of -honor of the winners of the Diamond Smile at Henley, 'the proudest trophy of amateur single - sculling, grows with the progress of the war. Last week's casualty lists included the name of Capt. Frederick Septimus Kelly, Royal Naval Volun- teer Reserve, killed in action. With- in the last few weeks the names of the wiry A, T. B1aekstaffe, of the Vesta, and Giuseppe Singaglia, the giant Italian scull.er, were also re- ported. Kelly was an Australian, but had done practically all bis row- ing in England for Oxford and the Leanders. He won the Diamonds in 1003 and 1905, but was beaten in 1904 by Lieut, Lou Scholes, of the 180th Sportsmen's Battalion, then representing the Toronto Rowing Club, They met in the semi-finals, and Kelly was go badly done up in the struggle that lee had to give up about 50 yat•ds froul the finish, and did not complete the couzrse. Lieut. Seholos had beaten D. C. Stuart, of Cambridge, and Wells of Balliol, earlier in the week, and in the final he won from A. H. Cloutte, of the Thames Rowing Club, though ho had to beat the Henley course record be- fore he disposed 01 Cloutte. Kelly-, who also won the Winefield Sculls over the full Thames courzt e, was a fine sweep .oarsman, as well as a sculler, and was in the winning Grand crew of the Leand -rs on rev oral occasions.
