It seems to be a rebat ceisty, whether anti-foreign or not I do not know, probably the former, as there is certainly much anti-foreign feeling around on account of the cholera. Ta brotherhood appears to have a large following, and it is with reference to this presumably that recent proclamations have be issued urging people to give up such things, and stating that if they repeat they will be forgiven, if not, that they had better look cut for the consequen probably aiming in the same direction.

A Lierman engineer, pleaded not guilty to having assaulted a rioksta-cure and refused to pay his legal fare
The complainant went into the box and full the Court that he drove the defendant to and from rurious places, ultimately depositing lim ut, the Hongkong Hotel. He went inside, but came out presently and told the complainant that he did not want him any more. As he did not offer to pay his fure, however, the un plainant held out his hand and requested the defendant to "pay money. The answer, he said, was a blow on the mouth from the defen dant's slick. The complainant added that he Was willing before the assault to let the defondant off for fifteen couts; after the assault he wanted a dollar. As the defendant refused to pay either sam, the complainant called a constable and gave him in charge.
The base xyzinst the defendant was fond proved, and he was fined altogether 30.30, the thirty cents to go as compensation to the coolie.

that his manly love for her has kindled a like passion in her brouat. Then begins the straggle of the woman's better nature against the chains of crime, which hold her in their grip. Her desperate efforts to attain to freedom prove availing. The story of her heroic fight with the pursuing Nemesis and of the al tragedy is graphically told. That, how ever, and the after fortunes of the gallant Lieutenant Grayson must be read to be appre- ciated. In the course of the story, there is much light of a 'larid colour incidentally thrown upon the private gambling dens of the Metropolis and their attendant vice. The White Witch of Mayfair must he sat down as one of Mr. Griffith's most thrilling novels. It is of a kind that may not suit all tastes, but to lovers of the melodramatic n literature if will appeal forcefully.

In one sees it is a correct appellation here, for the book is one which it once taken up would not be relinquished until it was finished, which would occupy » good deal at any rate of the period between dark and daylight.
