The Tapling Stamp Collection.
A number of members of the London Junior Philatelic Society, on the 27th Jan- vary, visited the British Museum to inspect the newly-opened Tapling Collection of the World's Postage Stamps. The Collection, which is said to be the second largest in the world, and which is valued at £100,000, was bequeathed to the British Museum by Mr T. K. Tapling, who died in 1891. He also left some £2000 or £3000 to be spent on its arrangement. The major position of the stamps are now in the King's Library, as also is the very complete collection of postcards and envelopes which came with them. The various stamps, envelopes, and cards are carefully set out, according to nationality and face value, in frames, fitted with glass on both sides, which slide into cabinets and which can be drawn out, but which cannot be detached. The greater rarities are kept locked away in `n safe in what is known as the Cracherodo Room, but, by special arrangement, these were also on view for the benefit of the party on Satur day. Here are, among others, a two cent. British Gujana of 1851, which is practically priceless, as only eleven similar ones are ...YES.known to exist; a penny and twopenny

At 8,30 o'clock the Japanese ships pulled up anchor and left the roadstead, but only stood down to the harbor mouth and in- stituted a blockade. At 11 20 o'clock the Russions stood down the harbor also. Just thirty-five minutes later, the first shot was tired by the Japanese. It was apparently to test the range, and it fell short. It was the signal, however, for a shower of missiles from both sides. Those of the Russians, however, went wild, the Russian gunnery being ex; ecrable, while the Japanese served their guns as it on a target-range. Their bre was contred chiefly on the cruiser Faryng,
which about 12.35 o'clock, was seen to stand up the harbor again, closely followed by the gunboat Korrelz.

A Rogue Elephant.
The Bangle Times of 23 Fobruary Sme wxcitement was opused in reports the City last coping by an elephant killing The animal belongs to Chan tekeeper. I'bys Dovest, and is about twenty years 11. It was known to be in a somewhat dangerous condition, and about six o'clock last evening it was taken out on the road running between Chao Phya Devesr's place and Klong Talat, in the hope that a little exercise and a bath might serve to to calm it. Outside, however, the beast only became the more mischievous, und finally refused either to enter the klong or to return to its stable. Some of the people about tried to soothe it, with the result that the elephant ! made an attempt to attack a woman who was in the crowd. Thinking the woman woukl
be killed, Nai Poù, the keeper seated on the I elephant's neck struck his charge heavily on the head till the blood flowed.

THE NEW ARMY SCHEME.
Section III.-Inspection. The reconstruction of the War Office and the readjustment of its relations with the Army demand a large measure of decentralisation. Many existing evils can be traced directly to the attempt to perform in the Central Office duties which should be delegated to the Executive Commanders of the Army at home and abroad. It results that these duties are frequently ill discharged from want of adequate know- ledge, that there is too much correspon dence of a useless and sometimes irritating nature, and that executive officers, nursed are not accustomed to, or trained for, the by the officials of the War Office in peace, duties which they must perform in war. Striking instances of these evils have come We conceive that, as to our notice.
