Hongkong, 22nd Aprü. SIR, Though having no bearing on the price of Babber, it may interest a few of your readers to know that Halley's Comot is now plainly visible to the naked eye, and viewed through a good prismatic binocular is quite striking. The nucleus is about equal in brightness to a star of the second magnitude and the tail about two degroo in longth. The writer Led his first view of this interesting object pesterday at 4.30 am. From now until the 1st prox, it will be practically stationary and may be seen any clear morning low in the Bastorn sky by looking to the left (North) of and slightly below Venus, whose brilliandé at present rather puts it in the shade. After the 1st it will move rapidly towards thosun and soon be lost to view, appear- ag three weeks later for another brief period u the evening shy before leaving us on its next 76-your journey, from which few of us can expect to witness its rotarn-Yours, duo.

SPORTING NOTES.

The principal feature of last Baturday's sport was the Gymkhana at the Race Course, Happy Valley. The attendance was good and the entries well above the average numerically and ales in class, with the result that those who spotted the winner "in almost every case had substantial dividends to draw.

A fitting conclusion to a good sporting day was the boxing at the Stadium at night. The main event between O'Keefo and Roberts did not prove the easy thing for the latter that critics had anticipated, and if the Welsh had freed the pace more in the opening rounds he might have at least managed to scare his opponent for a time. The improvement in O'Kooto was the topic of general conversations. and although this is the last opportunity we will baro of sosing him for some time, he is likely to gain by his trip north if he puts himself in the hands of a good trainer.

A fight which had many of the old-time touches about it was that between Bord and Johnson, and judging by the driving abilities of the former and the footwork of the latter both are likely to do well in future welter-weight competitions.
