RANDOM REFLECTIONS. The typhoons about which we have recived notice during the week have not had any ap parent effect on the Colcay farther than the disturbance of our atmosphore, bringing to an end the long speil of glorious bracing weather and introducing the damp clammy days Boomfed with Spring here. Still, it bas to be realised that rain is much needed. The reservoirs are low and the grass is no longer groen.

Several local companies seem to be watching the Government with considerable apprehension. They fear the advent of the Government in at ompting to to work which the companies think should be loft to them, and competition of this kind is not appreciated. The Hon. Mr. Keswick presiding at the "Dock" meeting on Monday, regretted the action of the Government in set- ting up e repairs workshop as not only being unnecessary and extravagant, but as also depriv- ing the Dock Company of a share of work which they might reasonably exprot. The same gen- tleman presiding at the mooling of the Wharf and Godowa Company voiced the apprehension that the Company might have the Government as a competitor, a prospect which is anything but pleasing. Had the Government undertakings been successful in the past there might have beon some justification for entering on new enterprises, but as the experience has been the

Whon one remembers the ennui which is so characteristic of Hongkong the continued saccess of the Flower Show in our midat must be regarded as surprising indeci. A few enthusiasts have managed to rouse a certain amount of interent in the cultivation of the beautiful in nature and the useful, but I am afraid that as long as people prefer tonnis courts to fores of vegetable gardens the development of the ex- hibition under the auspices of the Horticultural Society is not likely to be remarkable.

Tha nuisance about which Mr. Looker complains in the Press as existing near his residence has, I am told, sorved a useful purpose. The smell in question is not only long established, but it is distinctive, and it so happens that when the weary wayfavor on the Peak is-sking to find his way home under olondy conditions stol de after a good dinner when the polar atar is not in view and the billside is enveloped in mist this smell serves as a guide. When it assails the nostrila of the belated European he knows emetly where he is. It is like a compass by which he can take his bearings. One gentleman in discussing the subject became quito indignant at the prospect of its removal. What, he asked, does Ms. Looker propose to pat in its place? Such is the influence of a week of the Fallies.

Most of my readers are aware of the movement started at Home whereby the Marios subscribe for a present to the Queon.
