It is no derogation to Sir James in say that the career of his brother is more distinguished than his own. The manner in which, when quite a young man it was in 1875hman aged affairs at Perak on the murder of the British Resident first brought him intas pro- minence."- Straits Times,

GIBRALTAR AS A PORT.?

Sir

The Government is on the horns of a dilem mia. Either it must make the best of Gibraltar with its admitted defects, or it must face the fact that a fleet netion in the Mediterranean would put on its local resources-which in that case uk e exclusively the resources of Malta Dockyard strain which it has been conclusively loved that they are wholly unable to bear. It is asy to see the defects of Gibral tar: there is nothing to be gained by con ccaling them. Yet, when it is impossible to have what one desacs, it is sometimes advis. able to make the best of what one can get The statement by Mr. Dadfour that the decision of the Government will be nunced in a few days, and that in the meantiae gverything had been done that was possible short of break ing the contract to stop the progress of the works pending the fuel decision, indicates that the Go- vernment is fully aware of the disadvantages of Gibraltar as a naval port, and that it is giving the matter the fullest consideration, with the assistance, it is to be presumed, of the best -professional advice. In these circumstances it is difficult 1 500 what good purpose M. Bowles hoped to serve, and the muter for sur prise is that he found so many members, in addition to the Irish representatives, to follow him into the lobby.-Morning Post.

COCK AND BULL STORY,

The discussion of the Scottish Estimates in Supply yesterday afforded Mr. Weir an oppor. tunity for bewailing the parsimony of the Secretary of State for Roland and the neglect of the Congested Districts Board to provide for certain wants of the Highland districts. The Board, it appears, should provide bulls-sixty bulls, to he precise and has only found forty. "Surely," said Mr. Weir, with Caledonian five. humour, "the remainder could have been go: in Ireland. Likewise there is a shortage of rocks and hens, only five of the former and twenty two of the latter liaving been provided, with four and twenty swarms of bees, It is true that the board has spent £18,000 in land, but that is a matter of detail; a body which falls short of its duty in the matter of bulis and bees inust expect to find itself on the hurns of dilemmas and beset by the hornets of hostile criticism in Committee of Supply. Let the Board go through a course of the Georgics of Virgil, or it will hear more cock-and-bull stories from the Vigilant member for Ross and Cromarty-Pall Mall Gazette.

Mullins, J. H.

The Southern Delly Mail (Portsmouth) has received an interesting story from its naval cor respondent with the Mediterranean Squadron, which indicates the manner in which Messrs. Yerburgh, M.P., and Arnold white. M.P., members of the commitee on Naval Victual List of Registered ing, made a uniqué experiment in order to dis- cover whether the navy rations are sufficient.Angudhia, M. S. for Jack afloat.

When the Mediterranean Fleet left Malta Messrs. Yerburgh, and White accepted the invitation of Lord Charles Beresford to take a trip in H.M.S. Ramilies. Instead of enjoying the luxury of the Admiral's table, however, with a devotion to duty that was little less than heroic, the M.P.'s decided to live upon navy rations for a few days.

. PRESUMPTION SUFFICIENT. As the squadron was supposed to be in a state of war, the hon. members were unable to augment the allowance with supplies from the

canteen.

They were presumed to be piped out to scrub dacks at 5.30, but presumption in this respect was sufficient without the reality. But at 6.30 they were duly handed a pint of cocoa and a piece of bread or biscuit

At 12 they had their allowance of salt junk. soup, and bully, or whatever was the fare for the day, and at 4 o'clock had their pint of tea and another chunk of bread and biscuit, and after that had to fast until 6.30 next morning.

Admiral Fisher got wind of what they were doing, and signalled chaffing messages from the flagship.

DIDN'T LIKE it all.

In responãe to his query ne to how they liked it they replied -

Both M. Arnold White and Mr. Yerburgh are rather hungry, and begin to hold strong. opinions on the ration question, especially as the canteen is closed, this being war time.

The Admiral signalled abick

As the preservation of the lives of Mr. Arnold' White and Mr. Yerburgh is of suprene impor tance to the British navy, and, consequently, to the preservation of the British Empire, the Com mander-in-Chief is of opinion they should be taken off their present low diet, and released at once from holystoning decks and scribbing | Kahim Bakash canvas gear (which they have been presumably: Kumura doing since five a.m. on a pint of cocoa and Kala Singh.

FASTING BUT FIRM."

"We are fasting but firm," said the hon. gentlemen in reply, though they admitted that the prospect of a good lunch on board the flagship was most alluring,
