But more of this anon-in our next issue wherels we shall expose the condition of Chinese dei·ler and give particulars of the source from which many Important local Institutions draw their supplies of milk, as well as interesting fact relating to the way in which some dairymes contrive to 'palm, off' otherd milk as the ¦ genuine article ' obtained from their very own Imported milk-cows. And a 'word in season' on the adulteration of milk and the use of the lactometer will bring to a close a report wilch It is hoped will let light in ons subject which has hitherto been enshrouded in darkness, un to lacts, which the Important istmes involved would seem la render almost Incomprehensible under the circuMSTANCER,
It may, however, be added here that no len than seven Europeans are laid up with typhoid lever in Foochow, the cause of which is attri bated by their respective physicians to the use of milk procured from a native dairy, although by paying a few, cash more per plat they could have procured their milk from a well-known European dairy in the settlement.
SHOOTING.
'FIRST BATTALION SHROPSHIRE L. L
The regimental Rifle Meeting of the battalion came off at Kowloon Rifl: Range on the 16th, 17th and 20th April. The weather was perfect, aight breeze bidwing from the right rear on each day, and the heat being tempered by somewhat cloudy sky.

"For the whole period of the Company's opera - tions, the settlements have averaged 93 per cent. of the Standard Reserve. The ratio of 40 per cent, has been fixed as the meanlt of the experience of Companies in all parts of the world. Do the 1st December 1893, the Straits Fire Insurance Company, Lid, could have reinsured its unexpired Habilities, apart from losse unadjusted, for the amount of its Relusurance Reserve, less probably 30 per cent. The shrinkage in the Company's surplus fonds as the result of 159t losses Is $168,boo and is clearly set forth in the Balance Sheet."
OUTRAGES IN SIAM. **
The murder of the unfortunate engineer Babel, in the province of Petrlu, ought to awaken the Siamese authorities to a sense of their duties and responsibilities. Outrages and murders are becoming far too frequent la autlying provinces, and detection all too scarce to bode any good to a government which allows such a state of affairs to continue unchecked. It is, of course, Impossible for the Siamese Government to foresee that any enginear starting on prospect ing four may have his throat cut by his rascally boatmen, but It is not too much to expect that the Government «bail take every possible menny of discovering the assassin and bringing them to book for their crimes. As far as experience goes this is not what is being done by H. S. M. Government. It is either not pursuing the authors of such foul crimes with the energy which foreteners have every right to expect, or its officials are remarkably las in their efforts in detecting and arresting the criminals. In the provlace of Petrlu we have noted three outrages withlo almost as many months, where Europians have been concerned. It is not long since the brutal attack upon the house and family of Mr. Micaleef and the Officers-Lleul. Strick, polite 87.

tidings of the azıvasination of Mr. Babel. Had Mr. Babel been of the blastering, bullying type there might have been less cause for surprise, but as he was of a restring and peaceable dis position, and not at all likely to give offence, the cold-blooded crime is all the more remark- able, and has exured a widespread feeling of horror and anger throughout the whole European community of Bangkok,
Crimes of violence have oflate increased to an alarming extent throughout this kingdom. There is not a week we do not recard some deed of sxvage outrage or murder in the city or within plutot shot of the city walls. And the shooting, stabbing, clubbing and insilog are not confined to native victims, but Europeans are becoming the sufferers at the hands of the "rift raff” of the Siamese population. This increase in crimes of violence may, we think. be sccounted for in two ways. The Siamese aniberiiles are indolent in the suppression of crime. The venal character of officials is too well known, and their com- plicity with the bad characters of their district not so very rare that crimes of all kinds are rather encouraged than put down. The state of the provinces, over-run with dacofia and terrorised by armed bands prowling along every water-way of the country, has long been a crying scandal In this country. Without official lethargy or official connivance anch ■ state of disorder would be impossible. Arrests are sometimes made, but the real criminals are rarely secured. It is too often the friends or | relatives of the culprits who are made to explate the foul crimes committed upsa natives Lad Europener, while the actual perpetrators escape with ease. It is not to be, supposed that:| the evilly disposed will be deterred from crime when there are so few instances of the guilty belog captured and punished. Rather the rewrse; and the immunity from detection and punishment will only' tend iɔ, aggravato a stało of affairs which is rapidly becoming alarming.
And the second reason for this sudden mania for attacking Europeans is the general in. difference of foreign Representatives when their | nationals are the victims of outrages. We need not quote quite a dozen recant cases in which Europeans and protected native subjects have suffered lots of life, or serious bodily injury and loss of property, from mailve ruffians animated by a desire for plunder or revenge. Too many cases are fresh in the memory of residents to again recur to them here. Eat in aɔ single instance has swift · and adequate compensation or punishment been forthcoming. We may take as typical instances of this flabbiness of Re« The scores are subjoined, by which it will be presentatives the cases of the murders at Petria, seen that the shooting was very even, park the resurging of a British Indian subject by cularly between the four first Companies, #Ƒ" Zelapotus for the crime of requesting that his Company eventually winning by 17 points, property should be restored to him, and the chiefly owing to the steady shooting of C.
