ALLEGED PLEURO-PNEUMONIA,
AT THE DAIRY FARM.
For some days past a report has been current in the colony that a number of cattle at the establishment of the Dairy Farm Co., Ld, at Pok-fa-lam, are suffering from that dangerons disease pleuro-pneumonis. The report was made, we understand, on the authority at Mr. Vivian C. Ladds, the Colonial Vettiinary Surgeon, so that there would appear to be very Representatives of this journal have made little doubt as to its substantial accuracy inquiries in various directions but without obizining much informatión, both the Dairy Farm people and the Government officials main- taining an inexplicable reticence ever a matter which one would reasonably think should in the interests of the general public obtain the follest publicity.
It is understood
that the question was discursed in camera at the Sanitary Board meeting on Thursday last, but what decision was arrived at or what arrangements were made to prevent the disse from spreading has not yet been published.
Editor of Daily Mess-What would you suggest a bendlag for our paper?

THE South Formosa sugar-crop is the best and largest in the history of the island. The planters and brokers are now in good humour, as their business has been quite slack for several seasons past.

It is now published that during the first outbreak of rinder- pest from September, 1893, to Jane, 1893, 4,536 head of cattle died or were slaughtered and the preventive measures cost 47.940 yen, while daring the second outbreak from July, 1893, to this month, 5,184 died or were slaughtered, and preventive measures were taken at a cost of 6,377 yen.
"LIVING CRESS" AT EAST POINT.
The lawn at East Point House, the residence of the Hon. J. J. Keswick, forms one of the prettiest scenes in Hongkong, and to-day it was made more attractive than ever, on the occasion of the "Living Chess Tournament" organised for the benefit of the Union Church organ fund Crowded with hundreds of spectators, in holiday attire appropriate to the approach of sommer, the scene was made yet brighter by gully? decorated pavilions and galleries hung with bunting, to which the wooded hills. In the back- ground formed splendid setting. In the centre was the arena, a large wooden floor lad over the lawn and painted like a chessboard, fifty or sixty feet square, with a throne at each alde surmounted by the banners of the opposing armies.
Raide the field of battle there was a small table with an ordinary chessboard and men; here sat Mr. G. H. Bondfield and Mr. H E. Pollock, directing the game. The complete parionnel was (-a)

On account of a six months' drought, this has not been lessened by the only street cleaner, the rain, which is ever employed by the enterprising mandarins of the place.

SAYS the Hyoge News of March 24th - A romantic suicide of a Japanese girl living in the Mote-machi, near the Richmond House, took place on Thursday. It appears that her parents planned a marriage for her with a man whom she detested her love having been given to a foreigner. She told her mother she was going. to the bath, which she did, but instead of returns ing home, she took a ricksha, went to Suma, and shot herself with a revolver; this not accomplishing its purpose, she afterwards went to the seashore and drowned herself,
