Old Friends. Mrs. Mary E. Kront writes an appreciative notice in the Daily News of "Mr. Little's Steamers and of Mr. and Mrs. Arch. Little themselves. The facts given are already well known to our readers.
The War.
In a letter to the Lord Mayor of London, acknowledging the receipt of the resolution passed at the Guildhall meeting, the Prime Minister says that the Boers are being en- couraged in their hopeless struggle" by the utterances of the party in their favour here, The Government, however, "are determined to apply their utmost efforts to prosecute the war to a final and successful issue.
A Good Idea.
THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 1901.
Boxers in London. Some trouble among the Chinese who take part at the Earl's Court Exhibition in the military spectacle depicting the attack on the Legations has led to the discovery among their number of 17 sworn members of "the Righteous Harmony of Fists," who had actually taken part in the disturbances Inst year in Peking. Two of the band, named Ah Fao and Hu Wong, on being assured that they would not be punished, admitted complicity in the Boxer rebellion, Wong was in Frince Tuan's regiment in Peking when Baron von Ketteler was murdered. After this, Wong joined the Boxers, and fought with them at Patachu and isotere. An Fon lo said to belong to in Yin, where fr. Brooks, a missionary, was murdered in December 1899. He was an active participant in various engagements,
Pattison's Whisky..
The trial of Walter G. Pattison and Robert P. Pattison, directors of Pattisons, Limited, whiskey blenders, &c., at Leith, on charges of fraud in connection with that company was concluded on the 12th ulto, at Edinburgh. The M. Cochins, French Consular Agent at jury occupied an hour and a half in consider- Samarang, now home on leave, allends at aning their verdict. By a majority they found office in Paris from two to, four daily, at the Robert Pattison guilty of all the four charges disposition of any one who wants to consult and Walter Pattison of two, relating to the false hini as to trade in Java, or such matters. The statements in the prospectus issued on the for- idea might be taken up by some British Consuls mation of the company and the false balance- at home on leave-not, of course, for the whole sheet which led to the declaration of a larger time of their stay, which would be intolerable, dividend than had been earned. Robert Pattison but at certain specified times.
then declared that his brother was innocent of these charges The Lord Justice General sentenced Robert to 18 months and Walter to eine months' imprisonment.
Proposed Chinese Exhibition.
It is announced that a syndiente is în course of formation for the purpose of holding an exhibition of the industries, arts, and sciences. of the Chinese Empire in London in the summer of 1903. Prélimary negotiations have been entered into for renting Olympia, Ken sington, which, with its annexe, forms a most suitable place for such a purpose.
The Nicaragua Canal. Lord Pauncefote's announcement or the subject of the Nicaragua Canal is hopeful and reassuring. Briefly, he sees his way to an agreement which will satisfy the American President and the much exigent American Senate, while it will not compromise British interests. Probably we shall find that he has consented to the fortification of the canal by the United States, the point upon which the previous negotiations split and foundered.
The Carnegie Gift. Mr. Andrew Carnegie has signed the deed oftrust placing $10,000,000 at the disposal,of those who are to administer his gift. to the Universities, of Scotland. A letter from the donor to this effect was read at a meeting of the Executive Committee, who at once made Arrangements for setting the scheme in motion, Mr. Carnegie having promised that funds for the payment of students' fees should be made available when the next Session opens in October.
Public Morals.
The secretary of the London Council for the Promotion of Public Morality writes that that organisation has presented to the Westminster City Council a petition signed by 8,500 re- sidents or those employed in the municipality of Westminster, a petition pointing out the un- satisfactory moral condition of certain streets, and praying that steps shou'd be taken to remove from the thoroughfares what was a
reproach and a danger,"
A Little Expedition. A mixed force of British and Indian troops about jo strong left Aden on 15th ulto. for a point about 70 miles inland to destroy a fort built by Turks in the territory of the Haushadi, who are under British protection. The Porte has disowned the act, but as the Haushadi are unable to obtain possession of the fort, the Government of India has sanctioned the ex- pedition. It is hoped that a bloodless demon. stration will suffice.
The "Deutschland." On learning of the latest record trip of the Hamburg-American liner Deutschland, which accomplished her last journey from New York to Plymouth at an average speed of 13'51 knots, the previous best being 2338, the German Em- peror sent the following telceram of congratula tion to the directors of the line from Gudvangen, Norway: "Bravo, Deutschland: An excel- lent performance, hitherto accomplished by no ship in the world. Honour to the builders of the oft-proved Vulcan yard! Honour to the crew! May they both carry their glory worthily over the seas. I rejoice that the ship is called
Deutschland,"
Rifle Clubs.-
7
A large number of citizens of Glasgow are anxious to care! themselves as members of rifle clubs, in accordance, it may be, with Lord Salisbury's suggestion that such organisations should be as universal as archery clubs former- ly were. A deputation headed by Sherif Boyd was received at the War Office by Mr. Brodrick and Lord Roberts. They "wish- ed to be trained to the use of the rifle" and "desired some official recognition." The Secretary for War said that the Govern- ment did not require more infantry, but artil- lery and mounted men; and Lord Roberts said it was not a question of numbers but of quality. The Glasgow burghers were recom- mended to join the Volunteer force.
His Knowledge of China, At Bow County Court a Plaistow stevedore obtained 50 damages for personal injuries from his employer. Young was engaged in loading a ship with old horse shoes, when ene fell a distance of 30 feet on to his head. Judge French asked; What are these old borse shoes
The Royal Arms.
His Majesty King Edward VII. has signified bis pleasure concerning the Royal Arms to be used during the present reign, says the Genea logical Magnein. There is to be no change made. His Majesty, we are informed, took into, consideration the question of the Arms of Saxony, which, as Prince of Wales, he bore upon an inescutcheon over the differenced Royal Arms of this country. We believe the personal inclination of the King was in favour of retaining the inescutcheon of Saxony upon his arms, but in deference to the strong repre- Sentations made from official quarters (in reality the personal views of the Garter King of Arms), His Majesty relinquished his personal inclination. Wales, therefore, has lost in the little game it was playing.
Not the Sorrows of Satan: The Daily Telegraph has found a big gooseberry in "Sorrows of the Rich," which threatens to become as interesting 25 some of the other famous silly-season excusions of our contemporary. The substance of it is that a man with twenty thousand a year is only a sort of elegant pauper, and is really to be pitied. He has a positive difficulty in making two ends meet, considering the present standard of living and the price of everything. It is quite true that our tastes in the last couple of decades have risen to a marvellous degree, far higher than, our incomes, and that such is the demand for lavish entertainment now-a-days that, to a certain extent, there is truth in the suggestion that one does not benefit from a bigger income because the rate of expenditure has more than kept pace.

Sultry London. Yesterday was again very het in London, says a mail paper, and in different parts of the metropolis the temperature in the shade ranged between 84 and 88 degrees. The torrid sunEdurate, C. softened the asphalte and made the tar in the wood-paving bubble. Restaurants ran out of ice, and scores of people fainted in the streets. The omnibus companies sent out veterinary surgeons, who stopped the horses which showed signs of exhaustion. Passengers had to dis- mount, and horse-ambulances came along and The latest removed the unfortunate animals. fashionable "cooler" is a "Patiala Peg," which is, a small quantity of brandy in a tumbler which is then filled up with iced champagne, instead of sada.

Gambling in Belgium. The Chamber of Deputies has definitely passed the Anti-Gambling Bill, which has now been under discussion since February last, and The recommendation of the Senate to allow of which the particulars have already appeared. a respite of two years to Ostend and Spa was thrown out, and according to the Bill as now adopted only the "exploiteur" of games of chance-not the gambler-is punishable. The penalty varies from eight days to six months As the prosperity of the two towns in question, imprisonment, with fines of from facto £5,000 as well as that of certain others in the kingdom, is in a large measure due to the casinos, it is proposed to allocate them a subsidy that will S.S. Asso G. Nazinovich. help them to put their finances in a state of equilibrium. Such is the recommendation of the Commission of the Chamber appointed to consider the Bill, but this point has yet to be definitely dealt with by the Chamber.
