THEATRE ROYAL.
THE GAY LORD QUEX. On Saturday evening the Brough Coinpany produced Finero's four act comedy "The Gay Lord Quek," which has never been produced before in Hongkong.
Mrs. Brough took the part of Sophy Full. garney the manicurist, Mr. Brough, the Gay Lord Quex, and Miss Temple, the Duchess of Strood. The scene opens at the manicurist's in New Band Street; the plot is that Sophy Full garney tries to prevent a marriage between her foster sister Muriel Eden and the Marquis, of Quex, because his past life has been so gay, She also tries to arrange a marriage with Muriel and a Capt. Bastling, Muriel thinking for a time
that she is in love with him.
It is Fullgamey's idea she can show Muriel how totally unworthy Quex is; spying and listen- ing conversations between Quex and the Duchess she feels the latter can help her, but, as Lord Quex has promised faithfully to reform, Sophy falls and in the end finds out that Capt. Bastling is the unworthy one and not Quex.
Mrs. Brough, as Sophy Fullgarney, is charm. ing and most natural.
time. This rule, we believe, is in force in the northern parts EMEA
That further bloodshed did not ensue on Wednesday last is in a great measure due to the praiseworthy action of certain of the French military officers, who, realising the perilous situation, at once got their men in hand and sent them off to their ships, thus dis posing of the soldierly element, though the French bluejackets did not appear inclined to recognise military authority. On the other hand we regret to record that in spite of the knowledge of what had taken place on Tues day night, and with the strong probability of the Barfour's men seeking, revenge for the in jaries to one of their marines, the officers of that vessel took no precautions for controlling their liberty men, and there was no patrol from that ship
The Japanese police force was again dem onstrated to be absolutely valueless to copet with such a disturbance, and it is far from reassuring to the inhabitants of this town to find that a handful of obstreperous sailors are able to take complete possession of the streets for some hours and to create a state of affairs which is nothing less than a serious rios. A seaport town such as Nagasaki, where large bodies of men are let loose in search of amuse- ment and mischief, requires an efficient and powerful set of police whose arms as well as presence are able to impress evildoers, with the majesty of the law.
