The question whether the New York Yacht Club should be asked to permit the substitution of Shamrock I was quiclily relegated, because Sir Thomas and Mr. Jameson, in spite of avery. thing that has happened, maintained that the new boat was well worth the trouble she had caused. It may be stated with no little autho-
“My brather from Hongkong," said Quang Tart to a Sydney Morning Herald reporter, as he introduced his companion, a gentleman of soldierly hearing and massive build for a Chinaman, and a striking physical contrast tority that the challenger's true merits have not his relative:
Quang Yên, for that is the gentleman's name, is one of the most prominent Chinamen in Hongkong, and ranks as a fifth mandarin.
"That is the same rank as yourself? inquir 'ed the reporter of Quang Turt, Me Tari ex-
plained that while the rank was nominally the same, he himself stond, in a sense, a little higher than his brother. His distinction, hay ing been conferred on him as a Chinaman abroad, shines a little more brightly than the local distinction.
"You mean that you fly a few more feathers P "That's it. He is what you call four and
three-quarters." smilingly added the illustrious QT, as he pointed to his brother..
Quong Yen is a merchaut at Hongkong, and also represents his Sydney brother. Having been on the sick list for some time, he decided to recruit himself by visiting Australia and re- newing his acquaintance with his brother's family. This is really his third' visit to New South Wales. The last occasion was while Sir George Dibbs was in power, and he has pleasant recollections of his introduction to the stalwart, genial Premier. He expects to remain about three months.
Quong Yen is a member of the distinguished Chinese Council at Hongkong. This commeil is composed of in Chisamen, selected for their
high character and social position out of some fo or fa. He owes his nomination to Mr. J. H. Stewart Lockhart (Colonial Secretary), who before leaving on a recent trip to Europe recommended him for the appointment to the Acting Colonial Secretary (Mr. F. H. May, C.M.G.) He had also the support of such distinguished Chinamenas Dr. Ho Kai, M.LC. (a barrister-at-law and doctor of medicine), Mr. Fung Wah Chun (director of the Imperial Bank of China), and Mr. Wei A Yuk, M.SC. (director of the Mercantile Bank of India, Limited)

Heartfelt expressions of gratitude that the King escaped are heard on all sides. Many people say he was foolish 10 go aboard the challenger, but as Sir Thomas says, "If I did not think everything was perfectly safe you may be sure I would never have invited his Majesty."
It appears that the masthead man bad pro- videntinily been ordered down just before the accident. Many of the crew got a wetting, but otherwise nobody was hurt. King Edward calmly lit another cigar and continued smoking after assuring himself everybody was safe. Later he steamed around the wrecked vessel and carefully inspected the broken bobstay: The crowd which gathered at the railway station sang God Save the King"
The escape of the King during the disast ing of the Shamrock II was narrower than at first supposed. The heavy steel boom of the challenger was just swinging aboard when the Catastrophe occurred. Had the break come a few seconds later the boom would have been right over the deck, and it is impossible to estimate what damage might have been done, As it was all the gear tel clear of the yacht, the end of the boom being just clear of her port quarter Wien the mainmast went over it was still held by shreds of metal, but it hung plumb down and grounded in the mud. the Shamrock P's gaff brake in two on the laces, supported by the peak halyards,

NEW GUINEA OUTRAGE,
THE MURDER OF MISSIONARIES. '
REVOLTING BARBARITIES.
Intelligence reaching Thursday Island by the steamier Parua, which returned from the Air River, New Guinea, confirms the news of the murders of the Revs, J. Chaliners and O. F. Tomkins, and the whole of their boat's crew. All were killed and eaten, their boat being broken up by the natives. Several human remains were subsequently discovered, but were unrecognisable.
The Merric England with the Governor of New Guinea, has been with a punitive party at the scene of the outrage. Fighting has occur- red with the natives, who, attacked the expedi tion when its members attempted to land. The villagers have been punished. It is reported that 13 of them were killed, while the only casually sustained by the punitive party was the wounding of one native policeman with a
spear.

He says that Mr. Chalmers and Mr. Tom- kins were enticed ashore. Mr. Chalmers was first taken by the natives towards the village, Mr. Tomkins evidently being untouched.

THE FIND OF GOLD AT LEITH.
The Morning Leader says
The fresh discoveries of gold at Leith have revived public interest, and the "gold fields have been visited by large numbers of people.

NOTHING IN THE STRATA
The soil is of a sandy nature, and the preci. ous metal, was found in particles embedded in soft friable stone under a bed of sand and gra vel about nine feet from the surface.
Local geologists, interviewed by the Leader representative, were unanimous in the opinion that there is nothing in the strata of the beigh- bourhood to indicate the presence of auriferous deposits. Thougli compelled to admit that gold had actually been found, they were at a loss to explain its presence, and could only look upon it as some freak of nature.
The council was initiated by Mr. Stewart Lockhart, who sat up from a sick bed to write Quong Yen a letter of high recommendation before he sailed for Sydney. The Colonial Secretary is described by Quong Yen as a Chines scholar, and a true friend of the Chi- nese. The poorest coolie receives his.courteous attention along with the highest in the social scale. Quong Tart endorsed this testimony from his own personal knowledge, and added that Mr. Stewart Lockhart speaks Chinese more fluently and correctly than any European he has ever met.
