What will the 25:0,000 visitors'from North. America who are expected this year in England enjoy most? This. question wali propounded by The As- sociated Press to a number of tourist agents and hotel men. "Royalty and its trappings," was the unhesitating answer of many of the Americans and Englishmen who liana • tourist to do with the t ou st • tra.r;3 Nii o< sgs andQueens and Prinoes and palaces have greater fascination for Ameri- cane than for Continental visitors. The latter, as the tourist agents say, have had greater experience of royalty and aocept it as a"matter of course. The °hanging of the red -coated guards before Buckingham Palace at 10.80 every morning always attracts =many strangers and the changing of the Guard at Whitehall every morning at 11 o'clock draws even a . greater crowd. London Tower, with its murderous history, Hampton Court and other pal aces associated with the life of Henry VIII. and bis unhappy wives, have a special charm for American visitors. Even the men and women who are but slightly versed in English history know about Anne Boleyn, Catherine of Aragon and the other unhappy ladies who sat on the throne with him. Museums, galleries and theatres which• enable visitors to get back into the atmosphere of the Elizabethan era are most popular, especially with visit- ors coming to -'England for the first time. Shakespeare and Drake are so inseparably connected that they share the poppularlty of the Virgin Queen in the estimation of the tourists. The old Vic, with its never-ending, • season of Shakespeareand the Shake- spearian Theatre at Stratford afford visitors an opportunity to see the plays of the Bard of Avon in case the theatres in the heart of London are not offering Shakespeare. Tallyhos and old inns—in fact, any- thing which reproduces the atmos- phere of old English prints -have a great attraction for American visitors. Warwick Castle, 50 the tourist agents say,: comes nearer, perhaps, than any other to tiling the eye of Americans in search of a real castle, with walls and moats and drawbridges and armor and a banquet hall in which the Knights of the Round Table might be sitting. There. is a considerable Dickens cult among the American visitors and many of them are eager to visit the home of Burns and the haunts of Wordsworth and other poets in the English lake dis- trict. University folks generally want to visit Oxford and. Cambridge. But the majority of American visitors give most of their time to London and points within easy reach of the British capital.

NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY.i The room was entirely bare; moth-' ing whatever hung on the dirty walls. In the middle stood a long table,sur- rounded with chairs, on most of which sat a man; most of the company were. smoking; one or two had before them a glass containing some liquor. At the head sat a very young man with dark eyes, who turned out later to be, an Italian: Evidently he was acting as chairman, for as we carne in, and with our guards sat down, he stood up to welcome us: "We are glad to :see you eomrades " said the young man. "I hope you did not have any diffi- l culty in getting here?" "Not at .all," I said. "In fact I just strolled out of the ball at Drimning Rouse...." A bellow or laughter- greeted the remark; one of the men seized him- lsef round the waist in his appreeia- I tion of the joke. "Splendid!" said the chairman. "It l is well that such of our friendsas are unfortunate enough to be born among the oppressors should lull them into security until we have . a chance to destroy them." "Hear! hear!" said several voices, and I thought:- "Anarchists!" There appearance; nearly* all were young and refine" of feature; the educated class made up the majority. Now I saw better the woman T knew as No. 5. She was young, and not on;'y ex- quisitely dressed in her robe of flame, but exquisite in herself, Thedark pools of her eyes were fixed upon the speaker; the no;strias of'the deiiieate nese moved with excitement, and the lovely red lips were parted upon per•- feet teeth, while small hands on the table delicately . played' with a gold :e bag. It was incsonceivab:e, incredible, that a creature of . such fawn -like grace 'should be concerned in such an. affair. Suddenly the chairman's tone changed: 'rComrades, pardon the en- thusiasm, which makes me talk of these thins. You know then" as well as I, and just -now we are wasting time. It his been arranged, as you know, that the renioval is to be done this time by_ the F.

Therefore our own committee must concur in the action of the F. Com- mittee." 1 giggled to myself, for I under- stood. Evidently anarchism was con- ducted on the best lines of the Civil Service; evidently a resident in a par- tieuIar district could not be "removed" without proper ` notification being given to the committee of that dis- trict. But then, Civil Service habits get into every activity. "Therefore," the chairman went on, "the position is that No. 5 and No. 9, having drawn the lots, it is for us to eo-operate with them in the re- moval of the Emperor of Berengaria. I hear,.. comrades, that the person. in question is a most estimable gentle- man, with a large family, whose chief occupation in life is to collect butter- flies." There was a chorus of laugh- ter and hisses. "These details are by the way. What we have to colzsider is how the removal shall be arranged.

Western Canada; Now Ships Clydesdale and Percheron Draft Horses to Scotland. According to expert opinion a vert good market exists in Europe at.the present time for light -weight, range- bred horses, a type Canada possesses in suifloient numbers to satisfy these wants. According to this information the governments of several of the'Bi!' kin States and other countries bordiea'- ing .en the Mediterranean Sea could use several thousand Bead of young, well broken horses, weighing -from 1,100 to 1,850 pounds. This shortage, it as pointed out, is only temporary, and within five years or so the count tries at present on the market will be raising sufficient to satisfy their owlrequirements. Daley last fall the Dominion Live. stock Branch Initiated a movement to decide whether ar not such a market existed', and forwarded a shipment of eighty-four head of horses to Haul burg, Germany, which later, owing to the high duty of entry into that coun- try were diverted to The, Hague, Hol- land. They were disposed of at satis- factory prices and, in general., the in- formation gathered substantiated the belief held by the Department that a market for aural light -weight range - bred• horses exists in Europe. The ship. went was a pioneer and an experi- ment, acperiment, and as suelr.disclose•d many in- teresting facts which will simplify the hand -ling of other shipments wallah, it is hoped, will follow.. It has been esti- mated that there are many head of lightt-wefght•,horses roaming the ranges of Western Canada which could be capitalized by .shipping to Eurore, A. Julie despateh from ,Calgary states: "What may be the I•ast wild horse round up in. Alberta is,. now in pro- gress in the stretches of territory be- tween Mefiicine Hat and Standard and between the Bow and Red Deer rivers. The animals that are caught are check- ed over; those that are useful are kepi.; those that are not are destroyed. First Shipment Horse Flesh. Whilst the Dominion Live Stock Branch does not believe, for various economic reasons, that any great volume of trade in horse flesh can be built up with Europe at the :present' time, different hopes -would seem to Ile entertained be the Province of 'AI- berta. Some time ago the Provincial ,•• Minister of Agriculture received a re- quest from. the. Minister of Agriculture in Belgium for a sample shipmeut of , horse flesh, and recently a trial ship- ment of two tons of the frozen pro- duct was despatciigd to Brussels. A ,. shipment has ,likewise Jioen sent to Japan, where a potential market is be- lieved to exist. There is a confident feeling that in this manner a-sh.tisfac- tory and profitable method of d_.;pos- ing of scrub horses may thus be de- veloped. Despite the wide introduction of the automobile throughout Canadianrural districts and the general adoption of mechanical devices in agricultural pursuits, Canada, particularly . in the Western provinces, has been making-' great progress in the horse industry, not alone in developing numbers' but in improving quality. , The ,steady im- portation of the finest animals procur- able has resulted in such an improve- ment - of stock ,that, • instead of the range -bred cow ponies which once flooded the country, Western Canadian horses are consistent winners :at ternational exhibitions. Shipments to Many Points. Yet, despite the factors already noted, and the steady parcelling up of the range into smaller farms, there are„ more horses in Canada than ever. At the end of `1925 there. were 3,554,041 horses in the Dominion with a value of $245,764,000. Saskatchewan owned• approximately' one-third of these, or 1.149,953, Alberta_ fallowing with 849,- 939, and Ontario was third with 644,- 138. Maaitoba had 358,839 head •er horses, so that the three Prairie Pro- vinces awned together 2,24.4,730 head, almost two-thirds of the Dominion's to- tal. Saskatchewan • has an : average of about eight horses per farm. The quality of the horses .in this province ' is likewise outstanding, Last year, with twenty-three entries, Saskatche- wan won thinty-five prizes. 'tit the To. ronto Royal Winter Fair, and at the International. Show at Chicago twen ty-fou•r horses from the province se- cured forty-four prizes. Western Canaaa annually supplies Eastern; Canada, with quantities of horses, thousands having been trans- ferred every year for some time past, and this movement Is expected to eon- tinue. In addition there is a :;toady market in the U.nit:ed States and one developing overseas, Wee tern Canada, whielabas steadily imported from Soot, land for so 'long, la now shipping ant - male to that country. Shipments of Clydesdale and Percheron draft horsee hale been made to Glasgow, and these, �{ it is expected, will be continued.
