I have no reason to state that the rumour in Macro as to the smuggling of arms is quite well founded.

The same hon; member: in withdrawing his amendment on the "persions to widows and orphans" said that he did not think it right to role away public money without knowing how much he was seting.

JUMPING ON THE STAE FERRY LAUNCHES.
It is a common spectacle at the Kowloon ferry wharf to see helated passengers, European and Asiatic, rushing through the barriers in an cftan vain attempt to catch a departing launch. Mr. E. Osborne, the secretary of the Ferry Company, was on board one of the launuñes on Saturday, and saw a Chinaman, to late to purchase a ticket, jump a barrier and spring from the steps to the boat. Mr. Osborne went The men are having a good time. There are downstairs and talked to the man, polating out always a number of free passes to thostres, etc., that of late there had been a lot of complaints issued. We have had fine weather barring against that sort of thing, as it was feared that it would and in some one being hurt. The couple of days."
Chinaman resorted this probably to him uncalled for interference on the part of Mr. Osborne, and gave him some" back talk," with the result that he was given into custody for disorderly conduct, there being no police ordinance to cover the original offence.
