LITERARY NOTES.
FROM HOME PAPERS,
The attempt that is being made to restore the monument to James Thomson at Dry........... burgh Abbey is not likely, we are afraid to meet with an enthusiastic response. 'Jeminy' Thomson is pretty well forgotten by the present generation. Does any one now read The Sonsons' or 'The Castle of Indolence '? Yet there was a time when people did read thom, and Thomson had an unchallenged reputation: so much so that nobody was at all surprised when they pat up a memorial to him in Westminster Ab-- bey. Such critics as Hazlitt, Johnson Colerid, o, and Sainte-Beuve bave paid con. siderable attention to him. Hazlitt thought him the best of our descriptive posts; Sainte-Beuve said he excelled in large pictures and gener 1 effects; y a de la masse chez Thomson.' Wordsworth, Shel- ley, and Byron were influenced by the 'Seasons,' and Haydn set some of the frigid blank verso lines to music. All the samo, most people will now find them. unreadable.

But one poem of Thomson's has secured'' immortality. Few people remember that hop: was the author, or part-author, of the verace” of Rule Britannia. In 1704 a dramatic masque, called Alfred,' by Thomson nud Mallet, was produced, in which the song 'Rule Britannia' occurs. Millet, who was not an over-scrupulous person, gave it to be understood that the vorses were his. But there is little doubt that they were writton, in whole or in part, by James Thomson.

LATER. Advices from Portsmouth state that the American Ambassador's audience with the

It appears that the Czar's principal objection to the proposed Japanese com promise was the mention in the terms of the price to be paid for the repurchase of

Report for 1004-5,
The annual report of the Hongkong Civil Service Cricket Club for 1904-5 shows that during the year the membership rose from
77 to 96.
Owing to a considerable outlay for Cricket, Bowls, and Tennis tackle, and in improving the Bowling green, Tennis Court, etc., the year's working shows a deficit of $154, but against this the pro-
perty of the Club-has been valued and estimated to produce $680, without count.. ing the cost of Pavilion, the cost of forming the New Terrace, and the cost of the Ground-work, these throo items alone amounting to $1,000.
CRICKET: The Club has done badly in cricket. 18 League Matches were played, of which were won, 10 lost and 3 drawn.

PosH THE BARREL,
Mr Sharp read the statement of claim which set out that the plaintiff was a minor and was entitled to a fifth share in the land in questio, which interest was purported to have been assigned to the defendant in consideration of the sum of $28,000, alleged to have been paid to the plaintiff by the defendant. The document assigning the plaintiff's interest to defendant was register ed in the Land Office, but was written without the plaintiff's knowledge or con- sunt, and the signature it bore was not the plaintiff's signature. Plaintiff had not received the $26,000 or any part thereof. In reply the defendant stated that he diaFalconer proportý, The Falconer property close finishes in the heats and final of the O. R.

that his brother Lo Kwong Chan admitted, Lo Kwong San we examined. He said
in reply to questions by his father, that he had borrowed money from Musso on the was that referred to in the assignment of January, 1904.

¡
Mr Sharp then dealt with the facts of the case. The plaintiff's family lived in Macau, being one of Macao's loading fami- livs. About November 1903 the plaintiff's father, Lo Chuk Chee, purchased Inland Lot, No. 7. for five of his sons including the plaintiff, giving $230,000 for it..

The circumstances connected with the alleg. ed forgery were as follows: On March 31 Mr Bonner, of Messrs Dennys and Bowley, called at the office of Messrs Ewens, Hars- ton and Harding to borrow a draft of the
|
Mr Pollock-Why did you transfer your share to your mother?-There were rumours last year that I had been borrowing money, Who insisted on the transfer?-It was at my own suggestion. I was said to be bor- rowing money from everybody and in order to pacify the minds of my parents I thought it bottor to transfer it.
Whe gave instructions to the solicitors? I did.
Now, did not your father go to Sin Tak Fan-No. I gave instructions and after wards Sin Tak Fan told my father.
Was it not your father who spoke to you about borrowing money?—Yes.
Did he say you were not to borrow money on the Falconer houses?—Yes; but he did not tell me to transfer my share.
You say that Lo Kwong Chan confessed to your father?—Yes; my father ques tioned him.
Where is he now ?—I don't know. He is in one place to-day and elsewhere to- morrow. It is two months since I last saw him in Macao.
Where is the 89000 odd which you father recovered after the mortgage?-It is in the bank.
Further evidence was called and the caso was adjourned.
The races were well contested and pro. sided no little amount of excitement. The Two Lengths handicap were evidence that the handicappors had capably gauged most of the swimmers' capabilities, though one or

MURDERS BY A NEGRO,
Ghastly Scenes on a Ship.
THE CHINA MAIL.
The story of the massacre of practically the whole of a ship's crew and passengers by a negro off the coast of Honduras has just reached Queenstown."
According to the information to hand, it seems that on the night of June 30 the trading schooner "Olympian" left the harbour of Utils for Belizo. The vessel had on board, in addition to the captain and three men who formed the crew, nine passengers, including four women and two Children. At midnight, the passengers were alarmed at the sound of firearms and shouts of murder,' which came from the deck, and the women, going on deck, wore horrified to see the dead bodies of the

Eventually Miss Morgan jumped over board and started to swim to the island, but with an injured and bleeding arm it was not an easy task. The negro fired a couple of shots at her, but they did not hit her.

JAPANESE FISHERIES.
The Study of British Methods.
moro
The visit of Mr Kata, a Japanese student, to England furnishes still one striking instance of the enterprise of the Japanese and their kocuness to acquiro a full knowledge, at first hand, of Western methods in every department of life.
Mr Kata's mission is to study the Fisheries of Great Britain, and to make an extensive report not only on the methods employed in the catching but also in the handling and final disposition of the fish. He describes his oficial position as the Consulting Engineer to the Fisheries of Japan.'
Additional importance is attached to the
out that he will make, since this will influence the Tokio authorities in the choice and general arrangements of a new central market which they have decided to build. The Nihonbashi, ' the present Japanese Billingsgate, 'is situated in the vory heart of the city, and in many ways is below the high standard that the council are striving for. Mr Kota, whoso headquarters are at the office of the Japanese Consul General, is quite a young man for so important a post, and speaks English fluently. I have just returned, he said to one of our representatives 'from a visit to your Billingsgate Market, which I have explored and examined most minute.
ly.
'The system employed is similar to ours in the Nihonbashi, but in every detail is more perfect, and certainly more modern. The cleanliness apparent everywhere was a rove lation to me, and your methods and arrange ments in this respect are very far ahead of ours. Early next week I am going on a steamor to the Dogger Bank, where I hope to study the methods of your deep sea fish- ing
