Anyone not "In the know" must have been rather surprised at the rather unusual movements of a certain steamship off the island yesterday. With a blast of its stren which, was loud enough to be taken for a farewell of at least a week the ship departed from the Douglas Wharf at 2.30 p.m. and stearted Westward at a speed which might well have led one to believe that her one object was to put as much water between Hong- kong and herself in the shortest possible space of time. But then, as if determining to take one last look at the Island before setting

· MOTOR CAR ACCIDENT.
The circumstances attending the death of a coolie who was knocked down by motor-car 449, driven by air. C. R. Wilson of the Hongkong Electric Co., Ltd., at Praya East on April 19, were investigated by Mr. R. E. Lindsell sitting Coroner at the Magistracy yester day, assisted by a jury.
Another coolie testified that as deceased was going to tiffin he was walking about three feet from the outer tram lines. A motor car approached from the opposite direction and knocked deceased over. No tram was passing at the time and witness did not hear the horn sounded,
In the witness-box, Mr.. Wilson described how he approached the scone when he noticed decensed rushing out from the back of the in her tracks and steamed back to tram and crossing in front of the the other end of the channel. On car. The car did not run over the arriving there she again altered nun and in his opinion, the acci- her mind and with the fickleness dent was unavoidable. Mr. Wilson which men folk delight in also contradicted the evidence of attributing to members of the the coolie.. weaker sex she decided to take
yet another look at the land bordering the channel. So once more the process of turning was gone through and after repeating this apparently coming to the conclusion that wherever she went she could find nothing to equal the Island she headed back for the wharf which she had been so anxious to leave.

Eventually it was decided to adjourn the inquiry till the return of another witness and the scene will be visited to-day by the Coroner and jury.
