TRAINING FOR THE NAVY,
The annual meeting on the Wallaslay training- ship was held last month on board that vessel in Shields Harbour, the Earl of Ravensworth pre- siding. The Chairman stated that in the Royal Navy the system of training boys for the Service left nothing to be desired.

The Secretary minuted that he had explained to the petitioners that they were mistaken in aprox. ing that room necessa:lly meant Goor. If a man had only a comparatively small business the floor of the house he occupied could be divided into two rooms, one for his trade parposes, and the for the accommodation of his workman. If the business was of soch a size that the whole 431.00 Book was required for the purposes of trade, 5.18 the accommodation for the workmen must be found elsewhere. The petitioners were quite 45.00 satisfied with this explanation. Should a strike 70.00 take place against the enforcement of this law, 33.07 ba, (the Secretary), was of opinion that the 2.56 ringleaders should be, deported as characters 6.16 dangerous to the pesce ad geed order of the -6.16 Colony, and that Japanese washermon, bo 8.20 brought to the Colony to do itu laundry work.

SIR-May I ask through your paper how it is that the Kowlees Police are allowed to shoot dogs without giving dus warning to the owners ? I have always understood that we pay for licenses for the privilege of keeping dogs, and # the license is no protection why should we be expected to take out one? 'As a matter of fact the dog shot In Kowloon on Wedner- day night wa behaved animal and a valuable one. It was not the dog which had been complained of either, and was not howling or barking when shat. I certainly think that had a few enquiries been male before such highhanded preceedings were taken by the Police such a mishap would never have occurred. Shooting the first dog you come across is rather a curious method of stopping the nuisance and reminds one of the old saying “bang bla first and by him afterwards If the Police wish to shoot dogs why are we may be chained up? We require dogs in not warned in time so that valcabio animale Kowloon, as the frequent robberies show, and
If they are to be shot without thyme or reason our houses will never be safe. Is it not the proper course to firáf sue the owner of a bowling dog to cause him to abate the nuisance ?

A TREMBLING KOWLOON DOG. British Kowloon, 27th September, 1895. [That police constables should be at liberty, either by day or by night, except in the extreme case of a mad-dog, to go out into the public roads and streels and shoot dogs simply because their bark is an annoyance, in fateler able. Promiscuous shooting is not permitted by the law in or about the public roads either to the members of the police force or to any other Shooting is not the proper unisance. Dogs have owners. Dognare licensed and paid for. Dogs are supposed to wear collars and bear their owners' names. The owner, not the dog, is the gullty party, if the animal is allowed to become a nuisance. There is little or no difficulty in catching a dog. If ha cannot be lured in one way he can in another, and then his master can be ascertained by notice or otherwire and the dog restored or destroyed without bullets flying about along the roads. We hope to hear no more of thfi summary justice.—Ed., H.R.T.]
