It is somewhat surprising in such a hot- bed of enterprise and speculation as Hong- kong undoubtedly is, that no public com- pany has up to the present been formed to take up land in British North Borneo. The company recently formed,' with a capital of 400,000 taels, in Shanghai, has, we are informed, already secured some

We read that all the Russian coast defences are now furnished with a complete set of electric- lights, and that it is not intended to make any fur- ther additions for the present. The electric lights are not meant to be employed alone in time of war in illuminating the harbors and open spaces round the harbors and upon spaces round the batteries, but are to be used also during the night manoeuvres in time of peace. All engineer officers are now undergoing a special course of training in electricity and electrical appliances, in order that they may supervise the use of these lights.

THE V. R. C. regatta,"

The entries for saveral of the events for the forthcoming regatta closed yesterday, when a inecting of the members was held at the Recrea tion Club, and the crews and boats for the Am. crican and Germah Cups were drawn for. The crews for the Chairman and Members' Cups were drawn for about a couple of weeks ago. Five crews were selected to take part in the above contests, one of them coming to grief through the withdrawal of one of their members, Mr. Denison being the stroke of the crew which were thus shut out. Mr. Hughes' crew were also offe man short, through the withdrawal of Mr. Lloyd, and an attempt was made to fill the gap by sub stituting Mr. Denison, which course was, very naturally, objected to. A compromise was, however, made in the matter by Mr. Hughen tute.
