In another case the driver of a lory was charged with dangerous driving, carrying excess, load and failing to notify & change of ad dress.

This building will perhaps be something after the style of the one which is situated in Des Voeux Road, opposite the Central Market, but where the site will be. I do not know.

I have one suggestion to make and I feel that Kowloon residents will agree with me on this point.

The present Fire Station in Salis- bury Road is a no credit to the Colony, being inadequate to the purpose for which it is intended. be underly Without meaning to pessimistic; one day there may be big fire and then the authorities will have their eyes opened. Un til then, they will be quite content to sit down and ignore, all com, plaints about this department.

The Distances.

The alternative is this. That the present station be allowed to re-. main where it is but that it be re garded as a sub-station. It must be admitted that although there has not been in the past, any big fire in this district, the proximity of the Peninsula Hotel, Y.M.CA., Kowloon Hotel. the Kowloon Godowns, Holt's Wharf and the Railway Station, to say nothing" of the ships alongside the wharves, make it obviously imperative that appliances should be kept close by in case of emergency.
