VWO BATTLES.
The London Standard comes out with an extraordinary set of captions to an article
IT is uncertain as yet what will be the official designation of the battle fought between the Russians and Japanese in the Coren Channel. As Cape Trafal- gar gave the name to the great victory gained by Nelson just ene hundred years ago, so undoubtedly will Tsushi- ma supply the title for Japan's greatest triumph on sea. It is necessary for the- sake of history that some appropriate name should be allotted, and as all nu- val battles are invariably called after the land nearest where they are fought it can be almost taken for granted that Tsushima will score the honour. Re- ference to Trafalgar brings to notice the long arm of coincidence between the battle which made Greit Britain Mistress of the Seas, and the one at Teuslima which has given Japan a Goods por Daghestan-undelivered after comparatively free hand in these waters.

NEW TERRITORIES LAND.
The Hon. Attorney General moved the second reading of an Ordinance to facilitate the transfer of land in the New Territories and for settling disputes in respect thereof and for other purposes.
He pointed lout that the measure was-to facilitate transactions with land in the
New Territory. The bill provides for the establishment in the New Territo rics of District officers of the Land Court of Hongkong and provides very clor. simple forms of conveyances and other documents dealing with the transference, mortgage, etc of landed property. Ia order to make the necessary references to courts of law as inxpensive as possible cortain jurisdiction is conferred upon the land officer who is empowered to decide in a summary way the disputes which must arise. Care is taker at the some time to geo that in certain cases, with the permission of the Land Officer, an appeal could be mato to the Supreme Court. As thoro may be people in the Now Territories who are not willing to take advantage of the benefits which are conferred, the Goxernor, may exempt their property from the oper ations of the Ordinance. I think that the bill, if efficiently worked, will be bone- ficial to the Colony,

Recently match
played between tho Singapore Swimming Club and the 80th Company, Royal Gar rison Artillery, resulted in a win for the Artillery by four to one. Commenting on the match the Singapore Free Press says:- The 80th Company played a thorough match team, every man in his place, and looking to his comrades all the while. The Club team was distinotly Bratchy, and sufficiently showed the inutility of individual scored by the Gunners, their passing being work. In the first half three goals were
a treat. Soon after half time Nicol throw a fine goal from nearly half way for the Club, The Gunners scored once more before the whistle blow, and won by four to one. Th combination of the winners, to say nothing of their individual skill, was a revelation to the Club and should inspire them with the desire to go and do like-wise.'
