DUTCH-PORTUGUESE BARGAIN.
LISBON, July 19th
The Fonuguese delegates have just arrived from The Hague, and after a sojourn of 16 days in Holland they have obtained from the Dutch Government the most satisfactory solution of the boundary question at Timor,
The line on the Oriental frontier belongs now catirely to Portugal, without the interpost tion of Dutch territory, as before. On the contrary, it is Portugal which has now obtained some territory on the Dutch coast. A few com panies are being formed to explore the fertile lands of the island. A
VOLCANIC ERUPTION IN JAPAN.
A very serious report was taken to Nagasaki by the captain of the", Y. K. S. Hyogo mar It is that an eruption has taken place on Torishna, one of the smaller of the Ogasawara Group (the Banin Islands) The captain fears that very few, if any, of the inhabitants of the island have escaped death, and similarly that great destruction must have been dealt to animals and vegetation. The local Press.had been unable to obtain any further particulars of the eruption on Torishima, Bonin Islands. The Tokyo authorities have sent, a party of engineers and other officers to investigate the matter on the spot. The juuinal understands that there were about 150 inhabitants, and 40 houses, on the island.
H.M.S. "LONDON.”.
BREAKS DOWN OWING TO HER
BELLEVILLE BOILERS.
The battleship London, which, arrived, at
Malta on the 16th ult, is likely to be in dock. yard hands for a fortnight or more, says an exchange. She has developed defects in one of her main condensers. This is one of the faults to which ships fitted with the Belleville boilers seem to be peculiarly liable, and is an interesting commentary on the late report of the Boiler Committee.
The high temperature and pressure of the steam supplied by water tube, boilers puti a severe strain on all the joints of steam pipes' and fittings, and the resulting minor leakages. occasion a considerable loss of water and steam. The London has hitherto passed most satisfactory trials, and her machinery is of the latest and most perfect design.
CHINESE COLONIES.
A GERMAN SUGGESTION TO NEW CHRISTIAN
CONVERTS.
An interesting suggestion is made in the Deutsche Kolonial Zeltung, the organ of the German Colonial Society.
As the Christian Chinese living in the interior- of China suffer severely from persecutions at the hands of their countrymen who have not yet been prevailed upon to adopt the sum faith, the proposal if advanced that theron be lavlted to welle, win their families, in the Garmin Klaochon Protectorate.".
It is furthermore proposed that only Christian Chinese laborers be employed by the German authorities in the works required by the de- velopment of that cology.
The writer concludes by saying that this would not only be a powerful means of spread ing Christianity, but would be of immense advantage to the German Protectorate, and considers that the plan might, with some modifications, be adopted in German colonies in other parts of the world to the benefit of everybody concerned."
BEORET GUNNERY TRIALS, The gunnery trials upon the battleship Belleisle could not be carried out in their entirety, but some interesting experimenta were recently made with the ship in the presence of
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, THURSDAY, AUGUST 28, 1902.
LADY BLAKE AS A
NATURALIST
and Lady Blake (writes a military contributor In your recent paragraphs about Sir Henry
to MA. P.) you do not mention the fact that the latter is a great naturalist, passionately devoted to animala of all kinds, and generally surrounded by a perfect menagerie of them. I use the term menagerie advisedly, for many of Lady Binke's pets are of the kind usually seen in such itinerant exhibitions. Whilst in Jamaica Lady Blake, who, by the way, has written many interesting articles on West Indian insects, particularly on fireflies, possessed a tame tiger cat, which roamed about the grounds at will.
I do not know whether that tiger-cat still lives, but he was once the hero of a very mov ing incident," adds my contributor, "during the days of my service in Jamnica. During a Go vernment House, ball a gay subaltern and a maiden fair, wandered forth into the grounds, no doubt with a view to improving their astro- rustic seat beneath a spreading tree, and sat nomical knowledge. Presently they espied a
down upon it, little reckoning that underneath was stretched the tiger-cat fast asleep, The lips of Mars were all but in conjunction with the lips of Venus when the tiger-cat awoke from dreams of his native fastnesses Perhaps he, too, wished to study the heavens, and was annoyed. at finding his view obscured; or possibly it was merely his playfulness, but anyway he stretched up a paw between the bars of the seat, and-shall we say lung to the suballer. There was a
manly howl, answered by a feminine shriek and a low, spitting snarl; the lady stood not upon the order of her going, but went swiftly towards the house. But it was some time before the subaltern could tear himself away from the enchanted spot, and when he did it was only to plunge into a neighbouring thicket, whence he issued fervent appeals to all and sundry to bring him a gun and an Overcoat."
GUN COTTON EXPLODES.
AT OSAKA ARSENAL,
· A Nagasaki journal leams from the Osaka Asahi that on the rgth inst. a gun-cotton magazine in the north-eastern corner of Osaka Arsenal exploded. Two godowns were des- troyed, and of about 15o operatives, working at some distance from the explosion, no fewer than 40 were injured, three of them seriously, The glass roofs of the bmach of the Hirano Cotton Mill were almost entirely destroyed, and fourteen of the work people were injured. The wounded are being treated at the garrison hospital. The cause of the explosion is un- known as yet.
CARRYING GUN-COTTON.
NEAR URAKAMI.
A remarkable arrest has been made by the Nagasaki police near Urakami station, reports the Press. They took into costody a young Japanese, who had in bis possession a quantity of gua-cotton-surely a rather terrible load to rary. The man has confessed that he stole the stuff while he was employed at the Kilagata colliery,
HYDROGRAPHICAL.
The report of the Hydrographer of the Admiralty on surveys made during 19ot has been issued in the form of a Blue-book. In the course of the year 315 rocks and sboals which ware dangerous to navigation were reported. Of these 44 were reported by surveying vessels, 13 by other of His Majesty's abips, 13 by
varlous British and foreign vessels, 20 were discovered by vessels striking on them, and 220 were reported by Colonial and foreign

The Belleisie was moored near the shore off Bembridge (L.W.); and two gunboats were told off to attack her amidships. Three torpedo pets had been fixed to the ship's side, and a conning tower built, in which ammunition hoists were placed. At these several lyddite shells were fired from six and zine-inch guns. Examination was mado of the places struck when the experiments ended, and the parts fired at were covered with cansas
Nothing is known of the result of the ex periments, every possible precaution, baving been taken to preserve secrecy, as the Admi- ralty attach great importance to the results obtained.
