Attack Coincides With 26 Casualties Among Two Macedonian Factions The conflict of revolutionist and autonomist factions in a Macedonian "gang war" was instantly linked up with threats by political circles here whon it was learned that an attempt had been made to assassinate Lazitch. The Minister was attacked by an unâ€" identified Macedonian, who, calling at the Ministry of the Interior, fired two shots at Lazitch, one of which struck the official over the left ear, and then turned the revolver upon himself. Minister Lazitch was sent to a hosâ€" pital, where it was reported he was expected to recover. The condition of his assailant is considered much more serilous. The assailant is said to be a Bulâ€" garian comitadji, and new fears for the relations of Jugoslavia and Bulâ€" garia flared up here on the news of the attepmted _ assassination. The Bulgarian Macedonians, it is generally known, charge that Lazitch is responâ€" alble for alleged repressive police measures in Macedonia, and accordâ€" ingly it is believed he is next on the lUist of the revolutionary movement to follow (General Protogerofft, leader of the autonomist campaign in Softa, who was shot to death. By Attempt to Kill Minister Lazitch Anxioty lest a new twist be given to Jugoslayâ€"Bulgar relations by the attack upon Lazitch was accentuated here when reports from Sofla told of the sanguinary clash between partiâ€" sans of Macedonia independence, of whom Protogeroff was loader, and supporters of an autonomous province within the Jugoslay kingdom.

A 30 days‘ truce was then | granted to the Imam. "The acting British President," Mr. Amery conâ€" ltinued, "then proceeded to Taiz in the \Yemen territory to open negotiations but found that the Imam‘s represenâ€" ‘tative there was empowered to carry on an informal discussion only and not to negotiate a treaty.

This also doubles Italy‘s responsibility, which was not displeasâ€" ing to France since it will correspondâ€" ingly lighten France‘s burdens. Comparing what she hoped for and what she obtained Spain has most reaâ€" son to complain but it is believed that the diplomatic ties formed between Italy and Spain as the result of their recent collaboration in the negotiaâ€" tions will go far toward offsetting Spain‘s disappointment. With the signing of the accord the political aspect of the Mediterranean takes on new importance since Italy for the first time has realized her amâ€" bitions for equal treatment with Spain, France and England, and also receivâ€" ed valuable recognition in connection with the reorganization of the genâ€" darmerie about which she has argued since 1923. Henceforth, contrary to recent reâ€" ports, the command of the gendarmes will be Spanish with a French assistâ€" ant and other officers divided equally between the two nations.

Italy did not receive all she asked but will have an extra memâ€" ber in the Legislative Assemebly as well as an assistant administrator or judicial services, the chief of which will be French.

B.C.â€"The _ "Ogopogo," mysterious monster which inhabits Okanagan lake, is again in evidence. 1 During the summer of 1926, it made frequent appearances, always while the weather was hot. Last year, a cool summer, it was seen but seldom. On Friday, July 18, about 5 p.m., the Robin patrol of Girl Guides and Miss L. Price, nurse of the 22nd I.O.D.E., Girl Guides, had a good view of the monster which was disporting itself in Otter Bay. 1 The lake was very clear at the time and Miss Price, who was sitting on the beach, observed a motion in the water to the north of the camp. In a few minutes a long creature swam swiftly from the rocky points across the bay in a southerly direction. According to Miss Price and the members of the Robin patrol, it was between 40 and 45 feet in length and swam with an undulating motion. The shouts of the girls brought all the Guides to the scene but by the time they arrived only the ripples could be seen on the surface of the water. The creature made quite a noise as it rushed through the waters of the bay.

It is certain that Fengâ€"who recent« ly came into Peking to attend the me« morial services for the late Dr. Sum Yatâ€"Senâ€"is not the militant Methe dist he was for many years. He no longer attempts to convert his troop$ to Christianity and most of the Meth« Missionaries A« Russia Has odist chaplains have departed from his army. The soldier ovnnpll: Gen. Chang Chihâ€"Chiang, onee one Feng‘s leading generals, has retired from military life and recently con« ducted evangelistie campaigns in Ningpo. Marshal Feng was converted to CBRristianity in 1918 while he was wommander of a mixed brigade in the Republican armies. Three years ha fore he had become a regimental com« mander under the Manchus, the first important military position he held. The spotlight of international interest was turned on him when he became a professed Christian after attending meetings conducted by Dr. John R. Mott, head of the International Y. M. In following years he rose rapidly to power. After holding important positions in Anhwei, Szechwan and Honan Provinces, he became inspector general of the national army in 1923, with headquarters in Peking and with the rank of a general and later mar« shal T During the latter part of 1925 and early part of 1926 Marshal Feng was attacked by Chang TsoLin, defeated and compelled to leave Peking. Me retired with his armies to the north= west territory and later announced he had retired from Chinese war and politics. Shortly thercafter he visited Moscow, his only visit abroad. "The Christian general" remained in Moscow until 1927, studying the Soviet system. It is gince that time that the question of whether he reâ€" mains a Christian has been brought in Mose Soviet & that the mains a up. Missionaries who . since his return admit man.

Feng‘s generals have remained loyal to him despite that Feng often has been accused of betraying some of his own superiors. The feat of Feng‘s subordinate generals in keeping toâ€" gether the army which left Peking in 1925 is regarded as remarkable. It is estimated these troops have marched more than 3,000 miles and often they had no pay for months and even years Marshal Feng‘s reputation for disâ€" ciplining his troops has suffered soriâ€" ously recently due to the fact he has enlisted several former bandit groups& A group of them was responsible for the murder of the American missionâ€" dry, Dr. Seymour at Tsinan this «pring.
