If Sir Matthew Nathan is the "Strong Man" he is reputed and we all believe him to Io, Hongkong's citizens may well say, with all respect, that much is expected of him--much mare, indeed, thus from those who have been before him. He comes at the opportune moment in the history of the Colony's developments. The agitations of the community-yes, and tho government-lave reached their culminating

LOCAL SPORT. The yachting season has commenced; the Tron. opening craise takes place to-day. which was so successfully sailed last season in the hands of Mrs. Kobinson (wife of Rear- Admiral Robinson), will be sai ed to-day by Mr. John Hastings. Dione, will be eiled by Miss Stella May. These two are the only scratch richts, and they will have to be fust indeed to concede their very stiff handicap and

win.

The military authorities having kind'y lant the Kowloon Cricket Club their parade ground at Kowloon for this afternoon, an inter-club scratch game will be played. Members are requested to be on the field at 2.30 p.m. It is to be hoped that there will be a good muster. A coir malting pitch will be used.

Two of the boats for the new one-design club, being built at Ab King's Sipway, will be lauche in about a week's time. Two more are also on their way towards completion.

The following have been chosen to play for the H. K. F. C. in the Rugby match against the United Services at Happy Valley to-day, kick-off, 4.30 p.m.--

R. H. Crofton, back; W. G.. Leadrie, A. O. Lang, J. P. Jorden and A. S. Kempthorne, G. M. three-quarters; J. Clark and A. Fletcher, lull-backs; H. C. Sandford, E. B. Hallifax, A. Boyd. J. anson, PA. Bidon, J. C. Steel, D. B. Murray, and H. F. Chard,

forwards.

The Hongkong Polo Club have not as yet arranged any matches. Nothing much is doing

in this direction.

The Y.M.C.A. (European Pranch) hold a meeting on the 3rd prox. to make arrange ments for the season's football.

Regarding today's match on the Cricket Ground, there have been slight alterations in Mackenzie's team. Edwards, Dr. Atkinson and J. Clark will be substituted by C. H. Oxlade, F. A. Reid, and T. C. Gray:

It is understood that Capt. Barrett has de finitely decided to go with the Interport team to Hongkong, and will probably be chosen as captain.

I have received from a trustworthy corros- pondont in China two documents which not only emphasize some of the statements in the article you published yesterday-from your Shanghai Correspondent, but seem to me to be of considerable public interest at the present moment, as affording conclusive evidence of HAVE YOU TRIED Germany's activity in what wo were told a few years ago by our Government was the special sphere of British interests in China.

The influences which prompted the gentry of Hangehow to devise this scheme for averting a British monopoly" appear pretty clearly from the fact that they are able to lay before the Governor, together with their poti. tion, the regulations drawn up between ne and the said German firm and the German Consul's guarantee for the required capital.”

The other document is a translation of this:

How different the sombre quietude of the professional saloon from the common-or-garden billiart-room filled with airy badinage. These professional experts never chaff, nor do they resent the other man's take as a criminal offence. They do not climb strenuously on the table and address the bells in terms of faui- liarity. Moreover, the professional billiardist concludes his game as spick and apan as when he commenced, in contradistinction to the commans, or three-quarter-sized-table player, who emerges from the fray so bruised and chalked that he might have been assisting at some housebreaking operation.

Of all our professional billiardists, H. W. Stevenson is regarded as tho prettiest playor. Stevenson is slender, fair, and artistic. His manner of holding the eue between the thumb and the foretager suggests the grace of a lady lifting a cup of tea. At the top of the table Stevenson must be considered superior to Daw son-in fact, it is only during the past two or three years that Dawson has forsaken the all-round game and made himself a slave to the spot-ond. In physique Stevenson compares disadvantageously with Dawson who, though. smaller, is sturdier and more powerfully built.
