His Worship What is the real trouble betwen you two? Cannot you fix it up yourselves?

Defendant-I don't know. I leave-to- day for Manila. I don't know when I will come back to Shanghai. I am willing to sign any guarantee regarding my pay. This trouble is due to my wife's relatives,. who have gone back on nie. I don't think there is any man who has spent more money on his family that I have done.

His Worship- Don't you think it batter toast for a time I have no objection; leave your wife to support herself at certainly I have not.

Mrs Wilson said that she wanted to know what her husband had accused her of. He had abused her and had been guilty of cruelty toward her. He had said that both the children were not his. She wished to say that her name had never yet been connected with any scandal. Unless he proved his accusation, she would not have anything more to do with him. There was not the slightest foundation for such an accusation. About seven years Ago he slapped her and threatened to kill her. all their quarrels were always through nothing. He said he believed that most of the children were his but one. This one he said belonged to a certain German Cap- tain. She told her husband that if he said that again he would be made to prove it. Her husband was shouting so that every body in the boarding house could hear. In a boarding house one had to be above suspicion; any little thing became inatter of genoral gossip.

In reply to the Court, Defendant denied that he had been cruel to his wife. This was merely a family squabble. He had nothing more to say and wished his Wor- ship would decide the case us it stood. He was willing to give any guarantee.

His Worship-Don't you think that it would be better to leave your wife to man- age the boarding house?

Defendant replied that he had nothing to say on that point. His wife had started 2512 the ball rolling, and she must finish it.

AMOY CLUB BUILDING,

For some mouths now, repairs have been going on at the Amoy Club, Kulangsu, especially at the North-West corner, which, when completed, will greatly improve the building. Owing to the fire in Amoy, and the consequent lack of labourers, the re- pairs have taken longer than was expec. ted, but it is hoped another month may

Patience is a necessary virtue whero build- ing is concerned, especially in China!

DOG POISONING,

Meteorologically considered, the weather is decidedly seasonable, but none the less exceedingly unpleasant. Fog and damp, mist and rain, are inevitable accompani. ments of a South China spring, but it is all very uncomfortable while it lasts. More rain has fallen up-country, and the pro- spects of a good spring crop of rice are more favourable than for several years. Owing to the high price of rice that han prevailed of late, it is much to be hoped that there may be a good harvest, so as to relieve the Chinese populace of ono

THE BROUGH COMPANY,

A Village Priest." From comedy to drama the Brough Com. pany once more took us last night when they gave their initial performance, this season, of Sydney Grundy's masterpiece, A Village Priest. This is undoubtedly one of the best plays in the Brough repertoire, and playgoers no doubt, anticipated with pleasure, another of Mr Brough's powerful interpretations of Sydney Grundy's master- ty script. Those who anticipated such a treat were not disappointed; the perform ance was undoubtedly up to the high-water mark of the company's art, and overy scene

and every situation told. Mr Brough, in

the title role, was inimitable, and there was not one weakness in the entire caste.

The Broughs' Farewell. The agents of the German mail steamer Sachsen have again altered their sailing arrangements, and Mr Brough consequent- ly has found himself compelled to once more re-arrange his final performances.

It has now been decided that Tuesday next will be the last of the season, and the Suchsen will leave for Shanghai on the fol. lowing day. To-night, 'Facing the Music' will be the attraction. Monday next will be devoted to 'The Tyranny of Tears,' and Are you a Mason?' will wind up the scason on Tuesday. Mr Brough is much annoyed at the inconvenience caused to his patrons through these constant alterations.

There has been an epidemic of dog poisoning of late on Kulangsu. If the Chinese wonks, of which we have always a superabundance, were the only victims, one would not mind so much, though, to be quite fair, I suppose most of thest belong to some Chinese family, who have, of but it will readily be seen that the matter This rate will remain in force for three course, as good a right to keep doge as have is one quite beyond his power. meantimo the value of the dollar in Sing-foreigners.
