IT is reported from Washington that the chair- manship of the Advisory Council of the general division of intellectual property in the depart ment of the government in the World's Congress, auxillary of the World's Fair, at Chicago, hai been tendered to, and accepted by, Patent Com missioner Symonds. It is believed this will be
one of the most important branches of the con- vention work done at the World's Fair, and it is expected to draw together some eminent law experts and scholars from all nations to consider the patent and copyright systems in vil the countries needing almplification, and if possible to secure greater uniformity among them. By the Empress of China there arrived here on Friday inst a party of seven Scandinavian missionaries who are on their way to Thibet, They are what is known as the "Hodson Taylor Missionaries and are from the settlements of the Scandinavian sacea in the State of Wisconsin.

HONGKONG POLO CLUB.
SKY RACK MIITING.
A "Sky" rece-Meeting under the suspices of the Hongkong Polo Club was held at the. Race course, Happy Valley, on Saturday' afternoon, weather was everything that could be desired, when some capital racing was provided. The
and the attendance, under all circumstances, been anticipated. His Excellency the Governor, was much larger thin could reasonably have with Lady Robinson and quite a number of the fe of Hongkong rank and fashion, was present and apparently took a keen interest in the sport. Another noteworthy feature was the presence of the Band of the Shropshire Regimest, who Isbored hard and successfully in making matters as lively as possible.
A fair programme had been fixed up, but the handicapping in several of the races led to a considerable amount of hostile animadvenion, for which, it must be adraitted, there was a good deal of justification.
In the Polo Scurry hir, May scored a very popular victory on that miniature racer Tom Hi, winning two beats running in expital style; and then Solace who so greatly disappointed the followers of the blue and silver banner of the Cup last February scored a clever victory in princely house in the Walley Stakes and German the Return Cup from Go Bang and Hostage. dark-grey through, as he ran a heaten pony from But it was Mr. Haugh's riding that pulled the

extraordinary exhibitfen he made of himself in finishing; but the youthful aspirant fer eques- trian honours may in prove by practice, and the decan't why it can matter very much to any body. It is admitto y a tough job to make a silk parse out of a sow's car. Mr. Whitehead had an easy task at him in the Polo Ball Race, and then class wal to the fore in the Mile Handicap, when Reciprocation, who ran third in the Hongkong lai t year to Ardent and Royalty, cantered away from the ex-subscription griffins Silver Spur and Gaiety. Why the antique Susewind should have been given the task of presenting 14ths. over a mile ecurse to a tried race-pony ke Reciprocation, we leave the handicappers to explain and justify ; but în our opinion it was 'sheer ignorance of the first principles of handicapping.
