cient inducement to attract our enterprise. The following day, in company with Mr. Hecher, examined and prospected the August abaft on the 50 feet level, and I found gold in paying quantities in every pan I tried in the presence of Mr. Becher. The formation here is decom. - posed vein matter and runs through an unlimited space, as no foot wall or hanging wall has yet been discovered that I am aware of. After leaving the August shaft accompanied Mr. Becher to a hill about a quarter of a mile distant and prospected, I am satisfied that by bringing water over the top of this hill and parting a bedrock flume, and washing the bill with hydraulic pipes, that alluvial. gold can be obtained paying quantities at a very smail outlay, and why this has not been done ere this is something beyond my comprehension. A present some Chinese are working at the hill on a small scale and it is privately reported to me that they have been doing so for the last fourteen years. It is hardly possible that these men would be sacrificing creature comforts and exist in this isolated country without any material advantage. Under what conditions from the unjom Com- pany they are working at this hill I am not in a position to say. This hill formation is one great body of vein matter, and in my opinion will prove to be as rich, if not richer, than any portion of the Eastern Golden land I have prospected. Mr. Becher is driving tunnels in different directions, and I have seen small veins of quartz of free gold in various portions of same. 1 fortunately met here practical miner, Mr. Phillips, with whom I visited different portions of the lode, which crop out to an unlimited extent..
There are three Batteries of four stamps cach, with concentrators and pans, in operation at the mines, all of which are driven by steam power. I do not desire to make any unfavourable com-
ments upon the machinery in use, but with improved American machinery under the present management I think better results would be obtained,
It was with regret i noticed the want or waste of capital. The machineries which I saw here are in a great measure far behind the times, and are perfectly useless, I have also carefully examined the methods adopted by past managers of the Company, and they all tend to show a want of knowledge in practical mining. I made several independent hurried visits to various portions of the mines, and know for a certainty that gold can be obtained here in abundance practically worked. Mr. Becher has remedied past errors, and his dealings and the methods adopted by him under strained financial cir- cumstances prove to me that as far as manage ment an Ithe workings are concerned the Punjom Mines have a good future.
Pending farther operations I would suggest to the Punjom Company to sink their prescat work ings to a depth și shy about 250 feet,in order to get below all the breaks and slides to a per- manent formation. In order to do so they must have good pamping machinery. You are doubt less already aware our Californian quartz mines are on an average down from, 600 to 1,800 feet, and the lower levels have proved to be the richest. On these conclusions I think the Punjom Mines could have a similar proportionately well defined ledge with foot and hanging walls. Even at its present level the output at the Punjom Mines could be made payable if the ore was treated in the proper manner. The ore is charged with beavy particles of arsenic, which prevent amal. gamation to a great extent, and through an ap. parent oversight the management at the Punjom concession have not been able to meet the difficulties by which they have lost a large quan- tity of gold. To overcome this obstacle I think it would be advisable to erect old fashioned lime kilris and to roast the ore therein before crushing which leaves the quartz free from refractory metals. This can be accomplished at a very small expense, as wood and other materials required for the purpose are available on the spot I would also advise the Company with as little delay as possible to proceed with operations at the hill previously referred to. Water is required to be brought to the hill from a distance of about five miles, which I estimate will cost about 0,000. The yield from the hill by hydraulic washing will, in my opinion, be, say, from 300 to 500 dollars per day. This battar will enable

NOTES From Chinese PAPERS
The Comptroller of the Imperial Household at Peking has sent an order to the "Wen-hwa" firm of jewellers inside the Tsung-wen gate to detach twenty skilled workmen to make a magnificent Court crown or tiara for the Imperial bride. These have been coming to their work in the precincts of the palace every day since 2nd January, The tiara in three stories, the ground work being of gold, the cap being of Siberian winter sable fringed with vermilion garnished with strings of pearls several hundreds in number, and topped with the feathers of the golden pheasant. It will, it is said, take ten days to complete.
The Hu Puo gives the text of a Petition to the Hongkong Government by the "Hwa-on Kong-sze on behalf of the Chinese merchants interested in the trade with California, Australia, and the Hawalin Islands, in which 100 houses are said to be engaged. This trade, it observes, more intimately concerns Hongkong than does the trade with Singapore, Saigon, and Manila, which more affects the Chinese ports of Swatow and Amby, it pays British and American vessels from Hongkong to San Francisco and Australia, at least $1,500,000 a year for freights, and one- third of that, or half a million dollars a year for return freights, and many thousands for stamps to the Revenue Office at Honkong. The action of the U.S. Government in prohibiting Chinese from landing in California, which appears likely to be copted by Australia, will be ruinous to the Chinese houses in this trade, and will thus' re act on the general trade of Hongkong, the Opium Trade, etc., and pétitioners therefore humbly beg that the British Government may be moved to communicate with the Australian Colonial Government and also with the U.S. Government, and to use their authority in the one case, and their good offices in the other, with a view to the preservation of the rights and privileges to Chinese merchants provided for in the treaties of 1868 and 1880 between the Chinese and U.S. Governments.

One needs no farther proof of the richness of the soil when he sees the hill men residing in the vicinity of the Punjom concession bringing in daily to Chinese shop keepers, in Punjom village and elsewhere, gold dust which they obtain from the gravel in the streams that surround the Pabang country. Also I found at various points of my trip in this country old shafts or workings which are suppo.ed to have been operated upon some 100 years ago. Even en these old deserted workings European skill could be profitably employed."

The magisterial enquiry into the murder of Mr. Tom, a young Dutchman employed on an estate on the Sugat River, has been brought to a close with the result that nine of the Chinese coolles employed on the estate have been com- mitted for trial on the charge of murder,
Mr. Brock, the manager of the estate who is alleged to have thrashed one of the murderers of Mr. Tom, who, according to medical evidence died of dysentery, at the Sandakan Government hospital, has been committed for trial on a charge of culpable homicide not amounting to murder" and is, pending the trial, under arrest. The case has caused much stir, owing to the coroner's jury having brought two verdicts which were refused by Government, and owing to this being the first instance of the arrest of a European of a position sick as was held by the present defendant fa Sandakan.
An inquest was lately held on the body of another man and a verdict returned. A few days after it was found that the man whose body this was supposed to be was alive.

They sunk the tiger, cage and all, and the next day hauled it up, when to their amazement there was no dead tiger in the cage, but a live, alligator, and the tiger's empty skin lay in one corner. They took the alligator home in the cage and killed it, and sold the skin. Have nat we all met some people, fierce and cruel in life, unreformed until the hour of death, and are they likely in a future state of existence to assume a better change than this Swatow tiger? The tale, though it may not be true, has thus its moral.
There is a wide-spread belief in the power of some animals to take other forms, as the fox can take the form of a young and beautiful girl, eats can change to bats, sparrows to free-frogs, kites to pigeons. Fire-fics are transformed, according to popular belief, from Totten plants, and there are numberless other transformations believed Tin ;, but hitherto, although sharks have been known to change to tigers, there has been no instance recorded of the reverse process having taken place, and a tiger turning into a shark,
