MANILA, February. 2. To-day, Manila has thrown its arms open To the world, and has offered almost all that human ingenuity could conceive in the direction of pleasure and amusement The Carnival, which has been the chief theme of thought and conversation here for many monthe past has opened, and here we are in a whirl of excitement, gaiety, and happiness. We were a goodly crowd from Hongkang who availed ourselves of the pasange arranged by the as. Zafiro, including, besides a small any of Pressmen,

predominating element of military men who intend doing their level best to senare for Hongkong a place not to be despised, amongst the many competitors from differ- eat parts of the world in the athletic section, or, to use He official term, the "Oriental Olympiad." Host, if not all, of these bave established themselves in sporting circles in the Colony, the following details will readily indicate. Polo is being : represented by such expérienced beads as Major Findlay, Commandor Campbell, R.N., Lieut. Uraskenden, Lint Green, and Capt. Brierley. The tennis racquet is being weilded by Crapt. Benstoy, Lieut. Whyte, Cant: Brierley, and LiousBrice, thə two former of wives will be remembered as the clever pair who won the opon doubles championship it Hongkong two seasons ago; and, as to cricket the following sido should do much to creato a good im pression as to the standard of play in the Colony-Capt. Baird, Capt. Burley, Lieat.-Colorel Chamier, Capt. Brierley, Capt. Greenway, Lieut Bagnall, Licut. Anderson, Lieul. Liepason, Capt, Dwyer, Lieut. Haughton, with out. Betton-Faster as umpire. As an indivi. dual competitor Lance Corp). Andrews, of the Bulls, was also aboard, his forte being running: holding, as he does, the South Africa Army championship for the quarter-mile. The Zafiro's complement also included the band of the 13th Rajputs, who, under Bandmaster Coko, are expected to win further barels as the result of their participation in the Carnival pro gramme.

We arrived in Manila Harbour early this morning and were not kept waiting very long for a decidedly hearty, and official welcome. The first signal we had of it was the approach of a gaily adorned Jaunch, from which sounds of band music floated across the water to us. Soon we learned that the little boat bore the Re- ception Committee who, headed by Major Bingham and Col. Dorrington, quickly NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the boarded the Zafiro and extended the
