JIcNaughton, district passenger agent at Prince Rupert had to do during his recent visit to Jas per National Park when attending a convention there. He was about to .tee off at the seventh hole when he found the fairway blocked by a bighorn ram, several ewes and a number of lambs, and it became necessary to drive them off the course. The sheep did not wish to go and it was only when the players approached to within thirty feet that they moved off. Mr. McNaughton, who returned to the city Thursday afternoon, says the conference was very successful Among those present was George McNicholl of Vancouver. R. Creelman presided.
