Mr. Francis then asked all to rise and join in wishing the Admiral bon voyage and pros perity, and the proceedings terininated by the singing of "For he's a jolly good fellow," as he undoubtedly is.

VICTORIA RECREATION, CLUB,

We make the following extracts from the report of the above Club for igob.

BOATS,

The following is a list of Boats at present the property of the Clab :—5 Four-Dated Boats, Teh, Randan Gigs, Dinghies and Half Tub all in Good Condition.

BOAT-HOUSE.

In the early part of the year, the Old Y. R. C. Boat House was closed, and the Club traps- ferred to temporary matshed premises erected, with the kind permission of H. E. The Governor and Commodore Powell, at the South Corner of the Briquette Factury.

antee success.

BATH-HOUSE.

The Committee have much pleasure in con- firming the statement, already announced un officially, that a grant of land on the Naval Reclamation has at last been sanctioned by the Admiralty, and the Committee anticipate, if the work is pushed on, that the Club will be in a position to erect a new Club-house, with bath ing facilities, in a couple of years. While others have assisted in securing this site in few of the old one, the Committee consider it and futing to acknowledge the energetic advocacy of the claims of the Club by Com mander W. CH. Hastings, who has been our-popular Chairman for several years. The best method of carrying on the Club in the interval has given your Committee considerable trouble. Lack of accommoda- tion in a central and convenient position ear the city must militate against the best interests of the Club; but we would remind members that the present inconvenience was

avoidable and is only temporary, During the past year, the Club premises were removed to Austin Road, Kowloon, where a magnificent site was kindly granted by the Colonial Govern it, while Commodore Powell, with equal consideration, allowed the use of the Naval frontage for boating and bathing purposes. The Committee lost no time in erecting modious matshed. Unfortunately, the Typhoon

Capt. Jellicoe dwelt upon the great changes which had taken place in our China Squadron in Admiral Seymour's time. Changes were also taking place in Hongkong and there seemed to be an increased inclination to push over to Kowicon. But all these changes had not brought increased facilities for the fleet here, though he was pleased to see that Mr. Chater, whose absence they all so much regret ted, had a scheme on hand by which he hoped not only to benefit the Colony but the Navy as well. In fact he thought that Mr. Chaier's scheme was prompted by consideration for the needs of the Navy. Other changes were also of inunense interest,' notably the great interest aroused in the shooting of the feel. At Wei-hagall the ladies turned out to see the ships stating and he hoped that when next he came here he would find the shores of Deep Water Bay lined with ladies watching the firing of the ships. But the tile, we had been shown by the Boer War, was also a weapon which had to be considered, and he was pleased to see thu there was a scheme on hand for providing the Navy with a better range (Applanee)

H. E. the Governor said that he was pained and sarprised at being called upon is the only officer of the Volunteers present to reply to the toast. When he came here, the Volunteers were, but a hundred and twenty strong while now they mastered over three hundred. He did not like seeing so many young men present and no. Volunteer officers amongst them.

Mr. Francis then rose to propose the toast of the day. He said that they were anet there on behalf of the China Association to wish God speed to Admiral Seymour and to thank him for the great services he had rendered to the Crown and to them during the three and a half years he had commanded on the Station. He had not merely to be thanked for his perform ance of his ordinary duties us Admiral, but for special services rendered during the last eighteen months, many of a diplomatic form, which he had successfully accomplished One particular duty they had, and that was to think the Admiral for his expedi- tion to try and relieve the beseiged in Peking, the prompt manner in which it was undertaken atid the tactful manner in which be approached the commanders of the Other Powers on the subject, and the energy with which the undertaking had been carried out. The expedition, although it did not attain its object, could not be looked upon as a failure. Everyone picsant would join with him in saying that it cleared the way for No competitions were held in the Season of the subsequent successful expedition and impressed the Chinese.

If that was so he hoped that the British would long continue to make such mistakes. It was Just this promptitude to act and failure,

The Aquatic Sports, held on the 20th, 21st and 22nd September last, were carried out in a successful manner, and in the presence of His Excellency the Governor, Sir Henry Blake; the Hon. J. H. Stewart-Lockhart, Colonial Secretary; Com- modore Powell, and a great number of ladies and gentlemen. The most successful competitors were the brothers Alves-Mr. A. A. Alves winning the Championship of the Colony and Mr.A. E. Alves the Championship of the Club, Our thanks are due to Mrs. Powell for kindly attending to distribute the prizes, and to the subscribers for their liberal contributions to the price fund.

In October last, invitations were sent out for a public swimming competition (handicap), distance. 200 yards. Only two competitors from the general public came forward, the re- mainder being members of the Club, The race was won by Mr. H. E. Moon, Mr. AE. Alves securing second place; both of these gentlemen received gold medals.

REPORT OF THE BAR SUB-COMMITTEE. In presenting the Annual Report, the Bar Committee regret that owing to the removal of the Club, premises to Kowloon, the return is not so satisfactory as in former yeare,

The matter was at oncerteported to the police, who no doubt are using every excition to trace the culprit, but it is needless to say there has been no arrest.

It is particularly hard on. Mrs. Sparling as the watch was a very handsonie, double cased gold one set with a diamond in the back case, and presented to her as a Christmas offering by the officers of the America Afart, suitably engraved,

Mrs. Sparling on starting in the ricksha noticed a man hanging at the back who, on her looking round, ran off across the open space. This man was dressed in dark iransers and light jacket, the same as the snatcher of the watch.

LAUNCH OF A WATER BOAT.

This morning a new Steam Water Boat was launched from Messrs. W. S. Bailey & Co.'s Works, The vessel is to the order of The Hongkong Steam Water Boat Co., Ltd. and is too-feet long, with compound engines having cylinders to & co dimeter by 14" stroke Working at 120 pounds pressure. She is strongly but of teak with steel water tight bulkheads and stuices, and carries 170 tons fresh water. powerful Worthington pump is fitted on deck for rapid delivery of water from all com provided for the crew and stores. partments, and the usual accommodation is Messrs. Bailey & Co. have also under construc-

CORRESPONDENCE.

(We do not necnárily endorse the opinions expressed by Currespondents in this caluun.]

A MILITARY COMPLAINT. To que Editur of Fue "Ṭlosesung Telsukaru.” S18,--May I trespass on your valuable space to bring the following facts to light-facts which apparently require explanation,

Owing to Medical recommendations, marching order is not allowed to be worn by roops in Garrison during the Summer months and even prisonchs in the Military Provost Prison are not allowed to be paraded in that order.

2-The General Officer Commanding in China has just issued an order, forbidding the troops in Garrison to engage in any outdoor sports before 5 pan, owing to the excessive heat.

Under these circumstances it certainly secins. strange that the men of the RA.M.C. should have been paraded in this order 3 times in the last four weeks. Once at 2.30 p.m. and twice at 8.30 am. neither of which times of the day are remarkable for excessive coolness,

Personally I should consider that the lis comfort of standing in the oppressive heat with straps braced tightly round your chest etc, in a cramped and unnatural attitude would be more calculated to cause sickness than any outdoor sports, played in suitable costumes.

Possibly the explanation may lie in the fact that the persons responsible for the men parad- ing in this order do not wear the valise etc. themselves.

I think if the G. O. C. was aware of these

parades they would be promptly stopped, as they are altogether at variance with the studious regard for the welfare of the troops under his command, which he has always 'slicwn. Apologizing for the length of this letter, 1 remain,

Your sincerely,

Hongkong, July 3rd, 1901.
