THE mechanical problem of cutting stones up with something like, the expedition and conve- nience with which wood is handled in saw. mills has fascinated many an inventor, and has proved an expensive business; one of the latest ideas was the use of circular saws with small diamonds set as teeth, but the plan that is making most headway is an Initation of the band saw, in which mild steel, wire twisted in three strands, and travelling at the rate of fifteen feet a second, is the cutting agent. with the assistance of sharp sand and water poured into the cut. This is now used in the south of France for cutting blocks straight out of the quarry, the stone being simply cut in great slices from the face of the rock.

And His Excellency, and the Council, and the petered out Reception Committee notwithstanding, we feel quite sure that both the Duke and Duchess of CONNuestr would infinitely prefer that the proposed "loyal demonstrations," and the abject toadyism which is an absolutely necessary concomitant of such a degrading exhibition, were left out of the programme.

In another column we publish an appeal to the community from the Finance Com- mittee of the Alice Memorial Hospital, to which we would direct special attention: The appeal speaks for itself, and we feel sure that it will not speak in vain. A vast deal of invaluable work has been done in ald of the struggling and suffering poor by this useful Institution, and in desiring to
that should find a responsive echo In the bosom of everyone who can afford even ever so little to further such a deserving object. The question has suggested liself to us whether it would not be batter to devote the $12,000 (and the proposed extra vote) of public money set aside for the inane tomfooleries planned as a reception to the Duke of CONNAUGHT, to benefit suffering humanity, as proposed by the earnest workers of the Alice Memorial Hospital! Undoubtedly it would, but then the abject flunkeyism for which Hongkong isso justly famed would have no opportunity of fully extending itself, and the official grovellurs and their satellites would be deprived of the congenial pleasure of crawling in the mud before the colourless and uninteresting individual who, by mere. accident of birth for which he was In no way responsible, is the son of Queen VICTORIA and ALBERT the Good.
