It is not expected, of course, that these freight vessels, when provi- ded, will receive any Government subsidy, and therefore there will be

Pony Measurement.
The Pioneer's sporting correspondent telegraphs that the pony Indabba by gerany-Little Wonder has just been measured 14.2 at Uniballa. Indabba ran for a time in Australia as a 15 hands and won many races at that height; then he was measured 14.2%, but this was his lowest figure in Australia. It was scarcely antici: pated he could be passed,at 14.2. However, he was measured at Umballa in the spring and passed as 14.1, but it was clear there was a mistake somewhere, and remeasure- ment was ordered by the Calcutta Turf Club.
Suspected Jewellery Theft.
At the beginning of this month, a Malay was arrested by Detective Inspector Brennan in a Singapore pawnshop trying to dispose of $20,000 worth of jewellery which it was suspected he had stolen. The Malay said he had received the jewellery from a Javauçse prince, who had com- missioned him to pawn it, but as he had no credentials his statement was clisbelieved
by the Police. The jewellery consists of
gold centipede belt, several dragon krosangs or brooches, rings, diamonds, &c., and evidently belong to one collection of jewels, but as no one appeared to claim the jewellery the Malay was remanded for enquiry. It now transpires that towards the latter part of 1900 the Sultan of Deli was robbed of a quantity of jewellery similar to that at present in the hands of the Police, and one of the Sultan's men is now on his way to Singapore to see if he can identify the jewellery.

It is officially stated that Lord Kit- chener gave evidence before the War Com mission regarding the quality of the troops, their shooting and marching, individual initiative, and the degree of improvement therein during the course of the war, adequacy of ammunition and other supplies, and transport arrangements. He suggest- ed alterations in the training and education of officers.

The result of that method of paying wages is that for the first third of the month there is a wild burst of extravagance, during the second third nccessaries are secured on dis- advantageous terms on the promise of pay- ment at the end of the month, and during the third starvation conditions prevail. Payment week by week mighs molt the evil of the natural improvidence of native workers, but then employers have so much trouble with absences and leaving service without notice that they would be unwill- ing to give up the slight hold the retention of a few days' wages gives them.

That there is no immediate cause for alarm is pointed by the delay in the depar- ture of the Amphitrite, Captain Wind- ham's ship was put to a severe test yoster. day, and did nineteen-odd knots before the white metal of the bearings ran. This was why the trial was stopped and the ship brought back into the harbour. She will be put to a second trial on Friday, and then put to sea. From this delay, following a very severe test, it may be safely assumed that whatever the reason may be of the activity of the fleet it is not one of an im- mediately alarming nature.
