But it so happened that there was a "corresponding clerk" In the P.W.D. who wanted a change, as Mr. Coorxx, Director of Public Works, found him useless, though Mr. BROWN, the late Surveyor-General,
had thought It OH necessary to create the berth, Ressie's original appointment caused a great deal of adverse comment, and it is no secret that the present head of the P.W.D. (then only a subordinate) disapproved strongly of it, and on coming into power was openly in favour of abolishing the unnecessary post whenever possible. Now, therefore, was a good chance; Mr. RINIZ S. WATSON & CO., LD. was a man who had no special training,

and therefore was just the sort of man the Hongkong Government loves to put to special work. That is why a man like Mr. HORSFOOL was not made Captain-
Superintendent of Police-just because he was specially fitted and trained for the post. That is why a German who cannot speak English is Inspector of Schools. That is why a hopelessly obtuse obliviomaniac was made Colonial Trea- surer. That is why the best lawyer In Hongkong and the cleverest man in the Civil Service was not made Puisne Judge. That is why scores of other stupid things and why the Secretaryship of the Sanitary Board was given to Fortune's (?) favourité, Mr. A. HERDIRT RENNIE.

But now the fat is in the fire all round, Mr. RENNIE has not shown sufficient ability to keep even on good terms with those about him, and so nasty remarks have been made. It became, known to the higher authorities that Mr. RENNIE had, ever since joining the Service, been also doing private work for a Canadian flour agency, with which he was connected before he joined. It happens to be one of the sternest dogmas of the Civil Service that every officer is so hard worked that he has no time for anything else; so this was an awful revelation, and Mr. RENNIE resigned.

The next in succession is Mr. C. V. Ladds, at present Colonial Veterinary Surgeon, who has already earned the highest praise from the Colonial Surgeon (see annual report for 1892) and from every- body else who has any knowledge of his work; he is almost as well qualified for the special work of the Sanitary Board as Mr. Crow; and so, naturally, he will not be appointed. No, the post is to be awarded, at the dictation of GRANNY SHARP, the philanthropist of the Far East, to Mr. E. A. RAM, a book-keeper, or common or garden clerk, who is no longer wanted in SHARP & Co's office.
