"No," said Bilder gravely i when a man has acquired the power of leading men he's thrown away in an accountant's office, especially as the junior member of the staff. I see no prospect in England.

inquiring about a berth on the next Steamer."

Ah" said Parkinson," of course Ceylon's all right, and I've a lot of pals going out there; but what about rubber planting in the Malay Penin sula? They've got tigers there. That's rather a pull."

I admitted the attraction at tigers" to certain tastes, "but not to mine. In my case. the pull, I thought, might be on the tiger's side.

Since these interviews I have been, going the rounds of my military acquaintances and I find a general feeling in favour of Ceylon or the Malay Peninsula..

Of course, it's an excellent thing that they should take up the white man's burden and make the coolies work, only I'm in dread lest the overcrowding we suffer from in Eng land may be extended to the Orient.. Will there be enough plantations, coolies and big game to go round amongst our subalterns?

I can see the Government in- troducing several Bills--"

(1) For the extension of the Isle of Ceylon;

(2) For the lengthening of the Malay peninsula

(3) For the importation of five million coolies, estimated at the rate of five hundred coolies each, to give employment to ten thousand second.. loots;

(4) Fortheimportation of elephants, tigers, lions, buffalo, hippopotami, giraffes and capercanzie Punch.

COMMISSION ON SALE OF A BREWERY.

The purchase by Mr. Solonion Joel

of Meux's Brewery, in Tottenham. Court Road, London, for £400,000 gave rise to an action in the King's Bench Division in which judgment was delivered recently by Mr. Justice Lush. The action, was brought by Mr. Arthur W. Davis, who claimed from Melix Brewery Company. Limited, £6,000 commission on the sale of the property, which, he alleged, was brought about by his instrumentality.

The judge said the plaintiff's case, was that he introduced the property, to Mr. Joel through Sir Alfred Butt- but for the defence it was stated that the property was not introduced to the purchaser by Sir Alfred until months after the defendants had cancelled their instructions to the plaintiffs. The plaintiff alleged that' the chairman of the defendant. com- pany gave him exclusive right to find a purchaser, and that he at once negotiated with Sir Alfred Butt with a view to inducing Mr. Joel to purchase.

These negotiations fell through, and the defendants" instructions to the plaintiffs were cancelled, but ultimately the matter was placed in the hands of Messrs! Knight, Frank, and Ratley, who carried out the sale through Sir Alfred...

According to the plaintiff he was to share the commission with Sir Alfred, and therefore renounced his claim from £12,000 to £6,000, but Sir. Alfred denied that there was any such arrangement, Sir Alfred also dented that he "ever men. toned the project to Mr. Joel until after Messrs. Knight, Frank, and- Rutley came on the scene, but he believed that Sir."Alfréd did mention the matter to Mr. Joel some time before,.

That, did not dispose of the case, however, for the plaintiff must show that bie introduction of the property was, the real and substantial means of effecting the sale, and the plaintiff had not been able to do so, The plaintiff had been unfortunate in the mattor, but there must be judgement for the defendants, though without costs,
