BREACHES OF ETIQUETTE.

Some Drol Blunders.

As long as there have been kings and courts, gracious sovereigns and nervous subjects, there have been breaches of etiquette, and as long as human naturo re- mains the same they will probably endure. The foundation of the Order of the Garter, and the episode of Sir Walter Raleigh's correspondent of the Manchester Guar cloak, were, I suppose (says the London

dian') breaches of etiquette when they happen, though they have since attained to the dignity of historical events. -

The young lady who told George III. that she had seon all the great sights

except a coronation, and hoped to see that before she had done, made a momentry lapse from etiquette, but she did not blun der so badly as the nobleman who, having ne hereditary right to be covered in the King's presence, kept his hat-on-his-head-whon paying his respects to George III. and Queen Charlotte... I do not dispute your right to be covered before me,' said the King, but you seen to forget that you are in the presence of a lady.' George IV., whose complotion in later life showed cor- tain ebulliences due to punch and curacos,.

was folding one of his godchildren in bis august embrace, when the wretched infant, regardless of etiquetto, pointed its finger at the Royal countenance, with the admiring ejaculation, Preity spots !*

The question has been discussed at brief intervals for many years në to whether bow fire or broadside fire would be most effective under modern conditions of warfare says Engineering, The battleship action fought recently between the fleets of Admiral Wilson and Admiral Noel seem to have shown that it is important to have as great an end-on fire as is possible, without for- feiting to any considerable extent the amount of metal which may be deliver- ed side-on; and simultaneously it is in the interesting

Admiral Nocl, it may be recalled, attacked Admiral Wilson's fleet almost nt right angles, so as to deliver a full broadside, while himself only receiving the attack of bow firo; but as the tur gets his ships presented were immensely' greater than those offered by the bow- the on ships, the disadvantage in volume of fire of the latter, which in

INTERPORT TENNIS.

Victory for Hongkong. Following is the raport of N.-C. Daily News of the tennis match played at Shaugliai :-

There was a comparatively small at tendance at the Country Club yesterday (October 17) to witness the Interport Doubles. Owing to the unfortunato fact that neither Mr Noel Ramexy, the holder nor Mr W. A, Turnbull, the runner-up this your for the local Championship, was woll enough to play, Shangliai relied on Messrs C. Biron and E. Buxton Forman to meet the brothers Hanecek, who represented Hongkong. The count was in perfect afternoon ideal; the sun order; the perhaps a little trying to the side playing from the Club end for the time being.

Hongkong led. off by winning the first three games, though the last only came after douce had been thrice called. The next two wont easily to Shanghai, and then after Hongkong had brought the games up to 4-2, Shanghai went right aliend and pulled off the set by 6 4.

Set two opened with another guno to the Shanghai couple, but then caine four successivo gawes to Hongkong, who finish- ed off the set with the score in their favour at 6.2.

With the match score at cặc nll, a ter rific struggle ensued for the third set, The Messrs Hanc..ck had the sun in their eyes and their opponents playing smartly together, picking up cleanly and placing the ball swiftly and accurate- ly, forged ahead till the score stood at 5-3, in their favour. At this stage they seemed to lose some hing of their nerve, while the Hongkong couple, playing perfectly toge ther, nover in each other's way always on the ball and bringing off the most aninzing returns, crept steadily up. The scores drow lovel at five-all, entailing a long gamo, Six-all followed and suven all the gnnies being won from service: but the next two went to Hongkong and with them the set. Score 9-7.

With the advance of the autumn and the approach of prevailing winds the yachting season is close upon us. Lovers of the sport are looking forward to it, too, with moro zest than has perhaps been evidenced for some time past. The reason is not far to Book, for since the close of last season two 24-foot linear tators have been built at the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Cum pany's yard at Hunghoin. Even now they are in the water waiting to do battlo with the cracks of last year-the Dione and the Vernon-for the Championship.
