SPORTING GOŠSIP...

Our local sportsmen have under consideration the idea of organising a "snufflebusting" cru- se for the express purpose of petitioning Mr. Jupiter Fluvius to favor us by permitting some of the gentle min from heaven, of which a very large quantity must be in stock, to ilrop on that small patch of the inhabitable globe known as the Happy Valley.. What with the combined absence of our summer showers and the worthy Clerk of the Course, training matters are really beginning to wear a most serious aspect; still, under all circumstances, I have litle faith in the efficacy of prayers from the cruel and wicked men, who delight In pony racing, and am in- clined to think that owners will only remove the present difficulty by their personal and practical exertions. There is no disguising the fact that unless the racecourse and tmining track at Wong-nei-chong arc con- stantly and carefully looked after they are simply unfit to be used for training purposes. On Monday last the training course had been thoroughly saturated with the liquid element during the two preceding days, and consequently afforded capital going; to-day the track was as hard and unyielding as a turnpike road. As there is plenty of water available, surely there is no necessity for owners of valuable racers being forced to run such great risks of breaking their ponics down by training them on a track as hard as adamant !

*

•

The Clerk of the Course is absent, and although I have been at the Happy Valley almost every morning since Mr. Tripp's departure for Japan, I have seen no substitute for the absent official. I have also made it my business to pay several flying visits to the course in the middle of the day just to see what was going on. Well, to speak plainly, very little has been going on. The R. A. man no doubt works hard, but what, can one man do on a race course like ours with four or five coolies as the sum total of the assistance at his disposal Owners in self- defence will be compelled to call the attention of | the Stewards to this most unsatisfactory state of things. During Mr. Tripp's absence, some person who is able and willing to devote ample time to the duties should be appointed Acting C.C, with full powers, and there should be an unlimited supply of coolio labor provided to meet ail requirements. In dry weather the two tracks must be thoroughly watered and assiduously rolled and harrowed every day or they cannot be used for training purposes without certain risks. This surely is no difficult task. The Race Fund is reported to be fabulously wealthy, and as I can see no sense in hoarding up funds subscribed for racing purposes, it has always been a mystery to me why a larger portion of the surplus capital has never been devoted to what are universally allowed to be greatly needed Improvements,

Tajmahal was treated to a bout of slow exercise this morning, and beyond going rather tenderly in front, owing to recent blistering, moved all right, and looked fresh and well. The old pony managed to get the better of his pilot ("The Horse") at the Black Rock and galloped a few hundred yards before being pulled up. I was rather' afraid that this gallop, on the hard course would Jamie the game veteran; however, I was glad to see him walk back to his stable apparently quite sound.

And when he had reached "Cincinnati he went to an inn and gave to the landlord thereof three pieces of silver, saying: "No monkey business with me, Charlie; I am from Bitter Creek." And he who kept the inn marveled greatly, and said unto himself; "These be strange men that come from Chicago; never are they to be bilked by a hotel bill and he who endeavoured to outwit them is invariably headed off" "But nevertheless he bethought himself of a poker game which was that night in the inn, and 1 had a conversation this morning with the laughed to himself with exceeding great joy. vran C.

One of the most successful entertainments of the

kind, we have ever seen in the colony was given to the children of the Roman Catholic Schools of Bridges Street and Wanchai yesterday afternoon. At two o'clock some 170 children of all nations had assembici inthetwo largeschool rooms,which were most tastefully decorated, and sat down to a sumptuous tea, which had been provided by that most indefatigable work in every good cause Mrs. J. M. Fleming. Thetables literally groaned under the accumulation of good things, which in- cluded fruits, cakes of every conceivable descrip tion, bon-bons &c. It was a great treat to see the hearty manner in which the youngsters enjoyed the unwonted luxuries, and the many smiling, happy faces must have to some extent at least repaid "the Miss Robinson of the Far East" for thegreat trouble she had evidently taken in arrang ing the gathering. After finishing tea a number of $1,093,569.0.0 215.381.00 the children performed a selection from one of the operas greatly to the enjoyment of the other £1,108,950.0.0 youngsters, displaying a really creditable know:

(REUTER'S TELEGRAM.} SIERRA LEONE, Sept. 23rd.-

The trial of the two ex-employés of the Church Missionary Society, Wm. F. John and John Williams, together with their wives, on the charge-of-the-willul-murder-of-a- young native girl in the year 1877, at Onitsha, on the Niger, con- cluded here on the 18th instant, after a twelve days' heating. The prisoners were convicted of man- slaughter, and were sentenced as follows: Williams and his wife to twenty years' penal servitude, John to eighteen and a half years' penal servitude, and Mrs. John to two years' imprisonment with hard labour. The sentence upon John would have been the same as that upon Williams but for the fact that he had been in prisen awaiting trial for about eighteen months. According to the evidence clicited at the trial, the deceased girl, to- gether with a companion, ran away from the service of the prisoner John. On being brought back, the two girls were tied together back to back, and whipped with barbarous cruelty, not only by the prisoners themselves, but by others at their instigation. The victims were left lying on the ground, in the broiling sun, throughout the day, and their agonies were increased by the ap plication of pepper to their wounds, One of the girls succumbed to the injuriesshe sustained, but the other survived. The affair has created an immense sensation throughout the colony, and the sentence is generally warmly approved. The fact that the circumstances occur- red so long ago as 1877, while the trial of the prisoners has
