for for. She is the skylight in the charcoal drawing of humanity-man being the charcoal. She is the skylight in the edifice of the human life. She has no history. She has no story. She is the rhythm which transforms the prose of life into pootry. She wears a reasonable hat at matinees. She is too clever to talk of woman's rights; she takes them. She wears frocks that match her hair; she does not dye her hair to match her frocks.
She is the Sphinx that smiles at the trouble man takes to unravel the my- tery of the Pyramids when he might be doing something with the money in it.
Sho helps her husband to build up a future for himself, and never seeks to rake up his past. She believes that a theory is the paper fortress of the immature, and that a clergyman may still be a man. She knows that wher men talk about a woman being good- looking they mean that she is well- dressed, though they don't know it, She does not insist on her husband's eating up the cucumber sandwiches left over from one of her parties: she eats them herself and suffers in silence.
Her humour is that of a vintage year.
She does not believe that wit is that element which is unfit for publication. Her own wit is velvety. She was taken from school before it was too late,, and describes herself as a brand plucked from the burning.
She is not such a fool as to fancy that any one is over convinced by argument. She does not reason. She loves. She does not believe that a man can love only once, or only one. She herself prefers loving much to lov

Ahother Coolie Murdered.
The Police are investigating another murderous assault which resulted in the death of one of the combatante, a ricksha coolic, near the Hongkong Hotel last night, The row was due to a dispute over money, and it is alleged that during the melee one of the party was so brutally assaulted as to rupture his spleen, causing instant death.

As the Steamer Honam was crossing the Salt flats at 2.35 to-day, a loud report was heard, and looking towards the White. Cloud hills a dense columu of white smoko was seen rising to a great height. As near as one could judge the explosion took pinco about two or three miles north east from the City. Chineso say there is a powder magazine situated there, but no news of what had occurred, has reached bere at the time of the Pown leaving. After the first huge column of smoke had brisen, smaller columns of pure white smoke appeared, but without any report. Those who heard the
report and saw the columns of smoke think it must be something more serious than a cracker factory. No doubt nows of what has happened will filter in to-morrow.

Mr Murray Bain, as a very old friend of Capt. Anderson's, desired to emphasize all the good words the Chairman had said con. cerning their guest, and at the same time paid a warm tribute, on behalf of the other members of St. Andrew's Society present, memorable services of Capt. Ander-
for the memorial interests and Scottish gatherings in the Colony for a long period of years. Their guest was a good skipper, a trustworthy surveyor, an honest genial frieul, roun of mon, a worthy citizen, and withal an enthusiastic Scot. The large gathering assembled was a clear proof of the admiration and esteem they cherishe for their departing guest, and he was sure they would all join in the wish that the best of every thing would attend upon their guest, that he would enjoy his retire- ment in the Old Country, and come back ero long to be welcomed once more by his many friends here.
