CLEAKING THE TRIAL LIST. This morning, Suit No. 91 of 1899, Lee Yew Nam and others v. Kwong Hung Shau, was called for hearing.
Upon the cause being called, Mr Seth Haid-No one appears, my Lord ; there ain solicitors on the record-Messrs Wilkinson and Grist and Mesars Deacon and Hastings.
His Lordship-I understand the defend ants contend that the case was settled by arrangement some time ago, plaintiffs haye not come here to dispute that statement ?
Mr Seth-- No.
His Lordship-Well, I think I must deal with the case under Section 296 of the Civil Code. That section says that when a cause is called on for trial if neither party appears the Court, may, if it thinks fit, strike the cause out of the trial paper under Section 296 of the Code. I would like to make one or two observations with regard to the delay on the part of the par ties in bringing on causes for trial which have been down for trial « long time ago, and. have been transferred in duo cour-o" from the General trial list to the trial paper.

She seemed to have a lot to say and her manner of saying it was so irresistible that the almost continual roar of laughter from her crowd of admiro.s made ordinary conversation impossible, Even two old men, who were discussing teals and rice in a far corner, gave it up, and joined the edge of the crowd, evidently thinking that they could not afford to miss any good things that might be going. It was, to me, a somewhat unusual sight.

Like the conditions which existed in Servia, before the recent brutal murder of King Alexander and his Queen, the Por- tuguese plotters seem to represent the masses of the people. Many arrests have been made.

Now, it appears that neither party is prepared to go on with the case or wishes to go with it, and some paper has been tiled by the defondants themselves from which they seem to have settled the matter by some reference in China, much of the subject matter of the case having taken place in China.

It is bub Tight-to-say-that-the defendant's solicitor- gave notice of thst in the Registry, but I should like to point out that the proper party to give that notice is the solicitor for the plaintiff.

THERAPION No. 1
in a remarkably short time, often a few days only, removes all discharges from the unnary organs, superseding injections, the use of which does irre parable harm by laying the foundation of stricture and other serious diseases.
THERAPION No. 2

This pre- paration purifica the whole system through the blood, and thoroughly eliminates every poisonous matter from the body.
THERAPION No. 3
