A. STRANGE STORY TO TELL.
Te had quite recently joined the British India steamer Chupra, Captain R. H. Brown, which left Chittagong, Upper Bur- mah, on the present voyage on the 31st December with a cargo of grain. This was his first voyage in the Chupra, and on join- ing the vessel he landed sum of money, 20, to the fireman serang for safe-keeping, but subsequently asked for a return of the
inoncy. A quarrol arose and the money was pt returned to him. He alleges that the fireman serang bore him a grudge after: that. On Tuesday night and yesterday morning he had been at work, below and feeling very hot went on deck for a breath of fresh air. It must have

OUR QUIET ROADS.
To the Editor of the CHINA MAIL.'"
Hongkong, Jan. 27, 1903. SIR, -Knowing, as I do, something about the extra stress of work hid upon the Police Force at and before the Chinese Now Year season, it would be unfair to blame the Captain Superintendent of Police and his Force for everything that happens. At the present moment, a feeling of in- ercurity exists, especially amongst the female members of our community, in con- sequence of the outrageous conduct of some of the native scoundrels who come to this Colony at this season to rub what they can. Some will say that European ladies should not frequent the quiet ronds without ap. escort; but this cannot always be done, and it would be hard on the ladies were they obliged to forego their walk on our beautiful, health-giving roads. What, then, is to be done? It appears to me that a double patrol of Police should be placed on these roads during certain hours of the
deavour should be made to follow, the course of house-building with greater Police protection. Compare the number of houses now occupied above Hollywood Road and up to the Conduit Road, and between Col. lege Gardens and the Peak Road, with And yet those of my twenty years ago, there is no branch Police Station nearer. those districts than the Central Station. Surely something should be dono to meet a need like that which I have mentioned.-

The West River Tragedy.
A West River correspondent sends us particulars of the On Fat affair and the shooting of Mr Morrison, but he has been an- ticipated by the story that appeared in our Saturday's issue. He tells us, howevós, how the pirates wore identified. All the passengers were made to pass the gangway one at a time, and the informer was stationed on a guard boat outside holding a soldier's hand. As a pirate appeared, he squeezed the soldier's hand, and the man identified was taken and bound. Mr Mor- rison, one pirare, two of the crew of the On Fat and the captain's ten-year-old son- were wounded. It is stated that, in addi- tion to the eleven pirates captured, twelve more were to have joined the vessel at Kam Chuk. They intended to kill the captain and pilots, and utilize the On Fat to hold up one of the morning river steamers, so it is a good thing the contem-
plated outrage was nipped in the bud. Mr Fabian, the tidewaiter at Samshui, deserves credit for his detection of the man who afterwards turned informer. But for Mr Fabian's alertness, the pirates would pro- bably have carried out their nefarious and murderous designs.
