ROTARY CLUB TALK | ROBBERS' ARMAMENT
FRIENDSHIP TOKEN
FROM U.S.A.
Mr. H. A. Boyce-Coombe, of London, gave an interesting and instructivo address on the Island of Java at the Rotary Club's tiffin at Messrs. Lane, Crawford's re- staurant yesterday, during which he dealt with the geographical and climatic conditions, the people, and the colonization of the Island.
A vote of thanks to the speaker was voiced by Rotarian Cassidy, who stated that he understood Faffles was buried in-n Hindu churchyard. He hoped one day to
visit Javn...
Prior to the address, Dr. S. W. Tao, who presided, read the follow. Ing letter from Mr. Charles R. Storey, President of the Rotary Club of Brockton, Mass., U.S.A.:
"During my year as president of the Brockton Massachusetta Rotary Club, I want to do my part in spreading the gospel of friendship to far lands as well as among our Immediate neighbours. Friendship cannot be bought, it must be given. Friendship begets love, and when we reach the time that we, through friendship, learn to love each other as nations and as individuals, much of the world's troubles will vanish. We are all brothers and brotherly love is essential to good-will on earth. As a token of friendship to you, am sending this small Ameri- can flag, which is our symbol of loyalty and love of our home coun- try. I would appreciate word of friendship from you, and may I ask you to send me a flag of your coun- try na near this size as convenient, which I will pince in the group of flags which will be before us at every meeting as a daily reminder
in lands.
CAPTURED.
COURT SEQUEL TO RECENT
AFFAIR AT WANCHAI
An interesting collection of arms was exhibited in a case before Mr. Schofield at the Central Magistracy yesterday afternoon, when a young Chinese was charged with armed robbery.
The collection consists of a foot long dagger which, but for the use recently made of it, might have found an honoured place in a museum en account of the nigh ornamentation of its handle and heath; a shorter dagger sheathed in leathor; and on antiquated ro- volver having the chambers Alled with six pieces of lead in place of cartridges.
It was stated that these arms the paraphernalia comprised robbers took into the home of Chan Chee, a building contractor, on the first floor of 174, Wanchal Road on August 18 last, and subsequently with discarded when escaping money, jewellery and other property valued at nearly $800.
A Woman's Aid. The affair, according to Det. Sub-Inspector Rozeskwy of the Wanchal Division, was arranged with the assistance of a woman, who went in before them, carrying a basket and making a pretence of delivering it to one of the inmates whom she called by his familiar
name.
