ST. ANDREW'S STAKES,
Early Morning Races. Before the sun showed itself over the hill to the East of Happy Valley racecourse this morning quite a number had gathered on the course to witness the race for the St. Andrew's Stakes and the match between "Little Momo' and 'Desert King.' His Excellency Sir Matthew Nathan, accom panied by Captain Smith, A. D. C., arrived promptly to time and among others who were prevent were noticed Sir Paul Chater, O.M.G., Hon. W. J. Grosson, Hon. F. H. May and Mrs May, Hon. Gershom Stewart, Mosare T. F. Hough, H. P. White and E. Mast.

Chau-siang, the conqueror of Chow, had already reigned over his own kingdom 62 years before he began his larger work, which, naturally, he did not live to finish, Indeed his reign, as well as that of his son and grandson, may be passed over with a ahort reference, in order that we may stand face to face with the real conqueror of the other kingdoms and the real founder of the empire. One remarkable story, however, must be mentioned. The third emperor when a young man, was of Ta'in,
a hostage in the State of detained ne

travelling merchant, whose wife was very beautiful. The royal youth became enamoured of her, and begged her from ber husband. The latter relinquished her to the prince, though she was enciente at the time, so the story goes. In after years this youth secured his rights, became, as wo have said, the third emperor of Tain, made Lu Pu-wei his Prime minister, his The course wore a pleasant appearance in wife his consort, and the son whore the subdued light of the early morn; parentage was doubtful on the father's side, the surrounding hills were clothed in became the famous Emperor, which slight mist, except
the summits crushed the feudal system. It is difficult to the West where the sun's rays had to affirm whether this story is true or is an pierced through. There was a nippiness in invention of those, who, in later years, have the air which necessitated overcoats for the hated the Emperor, because he burnt the men and furs for the Indies, and hands were either hidden in the deep recesses of one's pocket, or enclosed in thick glovea.

Chih moves down the ages, known as the Imperial Wall Builder, and is directly responsible for the pain, and agony, which would be necessarily connected with work of this kind. Once when the Emperor was on a tour of inspection, an acrolite was discovered, on which were engraven words, which foretold the Emperor's death. In a fit of rage he gave an order, which reminds us of that given by Herod, and all the
scholars within the ndii of the spot where the stone was found were slaughtered. No second aerolite was ever discovered during his reign.
