his forces for the jump. A couple of seconds and the buffels of the two tendørs touched, with scarcely a porcoptible shock, Ono spring, he sayaTM (according to Vis Count de Soissons in the Wide World Magazine'), and I fell with a crash on the pile of coal in front, cutting my face and hands cruelly. Leaping to my feet, I scrambled down into the cab, and hung on to the lever. With a-loud hissing the steam began escaping from the valve, and the great monster sensibly slackened itë pace, Then I fell unconscious.
When I came to my sonscs I learned that both engines had been stopped only a short listance from the entrance to the long tun- nel pierced through the mountains. The resourceful stoker jumped out, duga polo in the middle of the track, and hung a lantern on it as a danger-signal. Then, having coupled the two engines together, and laid Ino out on a great coat, they returned to Shun-bang.
An hour after our arrival at Shun-hang the long military train steamed in. It had beon pulled up by the lantorn on the pole, but, seeing nothing suspicious, the engineer had come on cautiously. A Cossack patrol had told them somo fantastic yarn about a runaway engine, but notwithstanding that they pushed ahend at reduced speed.'
When they learned the exact truth, the officers on the train made much of the major. Cho-ting-fu was never soon again, and the Russians have now no doubt that he was a Japanese engineer in disguise.
SHARE REPORT.
In their weekly share report, dated
1st September, Mesira Vernon and Smyth
tato:-
A fair business has been transacted; dur. ing the week, and the declaration of peace he steadied the market in most stocky, the chief improvement has been in Docks.
Benks-Hongkong and Shanghais, con- trary to all expectations, have receded to $889, after sales at $875. The fall is chiefly attributable to the rise in oxchange which has more than counteracted the firmness expected from the declaration of peace. The market closes with buyers at $850, Nationals remain with buyers at $38.
Marine Insurances.-Unions changed hands in the early part of the week at $760 in fair lots, and later a sale was effected at $770, market closing steady at the latter rate. China Tradera have improved to $81, with sales at 880, £81 and $82. Cantone after further sales at $335, have been placed at $340.
Fire Insurances.-- Hongkongs remain un- changed with small sales at $335, closing. with sellers. Chinas have improved to 884 with sales.

From the moment the bombshell of war burst at Chemulpo on February 9, 1904, Russia's formid- ableness as a great power has trickled and trickled out like sand from an hour glass, and there is none who have any faith in it now save and except the Czar and his Grand Dukes and their satellites. Do they expect the rusting bulks in the depths of the deep sea of Japan to give birth to a Phoenix? Do they imagine the souls of the brave men who went down to the cod and the corse-fed conger eel' will transform and transmigrate, and give to the Empire of the Czar a new mental and moral type of being? If not, how will the 'great power' be built up; how will it be maintained? We have seen how ignominiously Russia failed when

As you say, the Astronomical work of the Observatory, has been allowed to predom- inate over the Meteorological, almost to its entire exclusion. The learned head of that department would, I am sure, if asked, state that at least with him Meteorology. takes a very secondary place.
The question is, What place docs it take with regard to Hongkong?

The Gaiety Stars.
Despite the continuous entertainment that we have had in the Colony during the summer the Gaiety Stars Entertainment Company opened a short season in the Theatre Royal last night before a very good audience. The company is of a autoville type but has two excellent at tractions in The Wheelers and Date. The Wheelors are trick cyclists of a daring and capable character, performing with their bicycles with an oase and graco and audaci- ty that fairly nonplusses the ordinary man who only knows the wheel as a means of gentle locomotion. They open the enter. tainment with what is described as a Cyclo
The Chairman-Gentlemen, as the report and accounts have now been in your hands for some days I will, with your permission, take them as read. The business of the hotel during the six months under review has, I am glad to be able to say, been fairly good; several of the departments showing an improvement in earnings, The directors anticipate uuusually heavy expenditure in the old buildings and hydraulic lifts during the coming year and consider that the sum proposed to bo put aside for that purpose not more than suflicient. With regard to the doubling of the present capital of $600,000, which the directors propose later on to recommend to shareholders, this ac tion is prompted by the wish of the board to make the apparently high dividonda paid of late years bor a traer proportion to the actual earning power of the Comany's na- sets of the present day. The value of the assets for some time past has appeared on the books as very much below their real value for carning profits, hence the dividends paid on such a small capital as the figures show may have appeared remarkable high, The directors hare good reason to think that a large number of those who patroniso the hotel consider that such apparently fat profits must necessarily mean somewhat unreasonably high charges by the hotel company for its wares, and they hope that if the increase of capital should be carried out, which would probably result in a reduction of the rate of dividend, this im- pression on the part of the public may he removed. Shareholders will notice from the accounts that since their last meeting Kowloon Farm lot No. 3, Section A, has been purchased.
