LITIGANT'S IMPROPER
CONDUCT
TOWARDS THE CHIEF JUSTICE,
At the Supreme Court this morning, a Parsec, named Vania, applied to the Chief Justice for a summons for embezzlement and also for $50,000 damages against two persons,
Sir William Goodman said he had no power to issue summonses against anybody, and sub- sequently stated :-|f other litigants acted as you have chosen to act, it would be impossible for the administration of justice in this Colony to be properly carried on. You have ten letters to me both at my chambers ařky private house, with reference to matters you have already fitigated, or are litigating or de- sire to litigate. In any case your conduct is highly improper, and I must put a stop to it, unless, indeed, your own sense of what is right and decorous Itads you to conduct your- self with propriety in future. I will point out what has occurred so that you may understand your position. It seems that a Parsee mer. chant named Ratanjec Cursetjee Vazia, whom I understand to have been your uncle, ded here, about 28th June, 1899., His widow, who was in India, sent a Power of Attorney: Mr. Arjance and yourself to enable you jointly and severally to take out administra. tion of her deceased busband's estate for:
her use and benefit. This Power of Attorney was dated 29th May, 1899. Mr. Arjance did not and, in September, 1899, you obtained Letters use the Power, but you availed yourself of it
of Administration. You swore the value of the estate to be $6,300.00, and alleged the debts to amount to $18,000; but as only debts due to

serve it in Bombay. I have no jurisdict on to deal with landed property outside this Colony and apart from that, the Code Section 42, 8.5. (2) says "No such leave shall be granted un less it is made sufficiently to appear to the Court that the case is a proper one for service out of the jurisdiction. I accordingly adjourn ed your application for further affidavits on that point and these have never been filed, and on the 31st December, 1903, under your in- structions, your solicitors, Messrs. Wilkinson and Grist, withdrew the proceedings in that action to bring a fresh action. In' such case, Section 316, S.. (3) of the Code says the plaintiff shall be precluded from bringing a fresh action for the same cause of action. In spite of this you, on 25th April, 1904, made a fresh application in Chambers for leave to serve Mr. Dtablia in Bombay with that concurrent writ. Of course leave was refused. Now it seems you think proper to write letters ' to me and ask to see me and take up.' my judicial time and that of the Registrar with. applications which i have no jurisdiction to entertain, unless they are brought before me officially in due course and time. I have taken the trouble to thus explain your position to you in order that you may not, in future, plead ignorance of it. I much fear that, unless your friends can persuade you to cease this course of conduct, you will eventually have cause to regret your obstinacy,
AT THE THEATRE,
• "EAST LYNNE."
On Saturday night the Stanley and Dramatic Company performed the coapopular drama East Lynne, before a numerous audience at the Theatre Royal. Though some of the most dramatic situations in the play were rendered somewhat weak by an evident lack of conviction on the part of some of the actors, this performance may still be considered as the beat that the company has given us since ils arrival here, and it is probable that another representation of this drama would be willingly patronized by the Hongkong public, Mies Fanny Stanley, who filled the leading role, Lady Isabel Carlyle, scored a decided success, her acting being of the best. This actress possesses the secret of pronting adroitly by each pathetic situation to appeal to the senti- ment of the spectators, and the applause accorded her was unstinted. It was a pity though that she was so badly seconded by Mr. Edwin Phillips, who would have done better if he had infused a little more enthusiasm into persons resident in the Colony (which amount. Peachy made a good Lord Mount Severn. bis personification of Archibald Carlyle, Ms. ed to $4,048.43) can be deducted for probate Mr. Harry Neville filled also his part well as the duly, such duty was paid upon the sum of villain' of the play; his rendering of the wicked $2,251.57.

More than two years elapsed and then, on May 7th, 1901, you brought an action against Mr. Arjanee claiming the return of certain books and papers belong. ing to the estate, or, in the alternative, $5,000, by way of damages.
