Feldmarschall-Field Marshal

That is the evolution of the Chinese steaner which is lying at West Circular Quay tostay kay with flags says the Sydrey Sw of April 12. She opens a new service to Australia by the Chungwha Navigation Co., Ltd., of Hongkong.
The steel twin screw steamer "Ling Nam" was built in 1903 at Hamburg, and is the same type of vessel as the "Marelin" now owned by Burns, Quilp, and Co. She was christene "Feldmarschall," and was popular in the German trade before the war.

So the "Ling Nam" has a link with Australia that will ensure her a welcome whenever she comes here, In addition, her captain has been here before. Captain W. B. Knagg, R.N.R referred, during the it- formal lunch on the vessel to-day, to his old associations with Sydney.

The Hongkong-Shanghai Inter- port Rifle match is due to take week-end members of the Army, place on May 26. During the Navy, Police, Volunteers and civilian rifle clubs took part in a ractice shoot at the Taikoo range when some excellent.scores were put up. Mr. F. C. Goodman, who when at Home last year won the Alexandra Cupat Bisley, returned the best score with 98.
The Chairman, continuing, raid it was unnecessary to go into the other proposals in detail, but there was one general remark which op plied to all ethers, and that was that he had not attempted in any way to strike new ground. All the proposals for additional personnel, stores and constructional work bp xpered to be absolutely necessary to koop pace with the development on 2 both sides of the harbour.

HIGH COST OF CHINESE.
A fatal accident to a Chinoman in British Columbia costs the Gov- erament of that province far more than it does when a white man is killed.
The Pacific Province of Canada has a system of Workmen's Com- pensation applicable to all employ- ees in mining, lumbering and most other industries, and several thousand Chinese are employed. In actual practice it has been found impossible to climinate the Orientals from the benefit of the Act, because, to do that would put a premium on Asiatic labour from the standpoint of the employer.
