THE CITY OF PEKING was to have been
laid up for an overhauling upon her arrival at San Francisco, her place on the transpacific run to be taken by the new steamship Korea. Captain Tremaine Smith, who is in command of the craft, is making his last voyage in her, being scheduled to take command of the Siberta upon his return. On board the Peking is the Chinese crew for the Korea, and her breakdown will cause the Mail company con- siderable inconvenience, says an exchange.

QUEER ASSAULT:- Ihunda Khan, watch- man, employed by the Hongkong Hotel Com. pany, charged Maghi, watchman, of Lane Grawford & Co. and two Indian P. Cs., Nos. 532, and 693, with assault, and using abusive language towards him on the roth inst. From the evidence of the prosecutor, it appears that the three defendants were drinking at the lower bar of the Hotel about fo p.m. and had a quarrel among themselves. The bar bay asked the prosecutor to turn them out, and he went in to pacify them, whereupon they assaulted him and called him all sorts of games. The corroboration of the bar boys evidence led Mr. Hazeland to bind them over in the sum of $100 each to keep the peace for six months.
EXTRAVAGANCE IN HEADGEAR :-The high prices which have been given this season for Panama hats leads the Tailor and Cufter to make a few observations on headgear extravagance-in quite a friendly sort of way, of course. "Some men inust be gifted with sartorial spice man remarks, when they pay strange notions of the value of money," the

DARING STREET ROBBERY.
THIEF SEVERELY PUNISHED.
A Chinaman of no occupation was charged. with stealing a gold watch and chain the property of rs. Sheffield, of Priory Lodge, Bonham Road on the 29th inst.
Mrs. Grace Sheffield, wife of Mr. A. Sheffield, of the Gas Company, stated that yesterday about noon she was going towards Lyndhurst down that way. She was wearing her watch and Terrace, and noticed the defendant was coming
chain on her right waist, and defendant snatched them and ran down an alley way. She chased him as far as Stanley Street, and had him in sight all the time. A Sanitary foreman who happened to be there, saw her running after the thief, and joined in the chase, and he caught hold of him. She saw him search the defendant for the watch and chain and then saw the foreman find them among the ashes in the alley way where there was a pile of timber.
Jeronymo G. Silva, foreman of the Sanitary Board, deposed that yesterday about, neon he was talking to a friend in Wellington Street, when he heard a woman calling out 'Thief' and saw prosecutrix running and pointing to the defendant, who was also raaning towards a lane în Stanley Street. He chased him and caught hold of him at the door of a house in Cochrane Street, and saw him throw something among the rubbish. He asked the carpenters for a light to search the place and found a gold watch and chain.
Defendant said he was suffering from a disease and could sat find any work to do.
He was searching for a clansman in get some money to go to the country. He was sitting down to cool himself and saw woman chasing a man who had stolen her watch. While the thief was running past him, he saw Him throw down the watch and he picked it up to look at it when the foreman caught hold of him.
Mr. Hazeland sentenced him to six months hard labour, the first and last fortnights to be in solitary conûnement and to receive twenty strokes twice.
Mr. Hazeland requested Inspector Withers, who was in charge of the case, to bring to the notice of the Sanitary Board officials and the Government the conduct of Foreman Silva who had made a gallant capture.

SPORT IN TONKIN AND ANNAM.
It has always been a matter of surprise to the writer that none of our enterprising sportsmen from Hongkong have ever. paid a visit to this colony in search of game; for both hair and feather abound within half a day's journey of Haiphong. Large quantities of deer are to be found amongst the hills which run along the coast and inland; partridges, quails and snipe are numerous. There is always a fair chance of bringing home a wood- cock or two, and, with a little fuck, a silver pheasant. There is no close season, but the most favourable time is from the middle of October to the 15th of March. "A good painter is necessary for the birds are difficult to riser No gun or game licence is necessary. Shielte." is always to be found in the villages and pagodas.
There is also plenty of big game to be had, but this entails a longer journey. Tigers are numerous in all the hills where there are deer,

Two dogs were working and plenty of birds were put, but the average of shooting. was poor, (V.B-Perhaps Watson's E quality in the sapan had something to do with that), only 36% were killed.
THE NEW G, C. S. C.
General Dodds is about to pass over his command and go on leave. His successor is General Coronnal, who was head of a Brigade here in 1894-95 and afterwards was in com mand of the troops in Saigon. He is a clever, and energetic officer who has risen to the fore by sheer hard work and owes nothing to is fluence. He is a Basque, and of modst parentage; is proud of mentioning the fag, as well be may be. He has the reputation of great honesty and left Tonkin tulos having lost favour in the eyes of the thea Governor General, for having, with good reason, refused to confirm that functionary's, reports to the Ministry that a trace or piracy had been wiped out in the colony.
THE RICE EXPORT The last crop was a very poor one and the new one will be worse, owing to the very dry weather in the early months of the year and the torrential rains of July and August, Ships are leaving for Hongkong with very small cargoes. There are great fears of a famine this winter; in event of which the Gov croment will most certainly stop the rice ex- port altogether,

They were not sold as the bids received did not reach the reserves. PORTRAITS PUBLIC PROPERTY: Miss Abigail Roberson, a beautiful young woman, and member of a well-known New York family, recently brought an action against a flour firm for using her portrait as an advertisement on their boxes and barrels. The Court of Appeals decided against her. The court says that any person's portrait is public property. Advertisers have as much right to use it as a newspaper or
magazine,

It was, of course, known that the Duke would not have married so long as his invalid son, Lord Arundel, lived, but now he is dead there is the question of an heir to the title and estates, which, in the event of no direct issue, would go to the Duke's brother, Lord Edmund
Talbol.
THE LATE MR. POTTS:-Mr. R. Potts, who died of dysentery in Hongkong last Saturday week at the early age of twenty. nine years, was well-known to many of us in Shanghai, says Sport and Gossip and great regret was expressed among his friends and acquaintances upon the receipt of the news of his sad death. During the Spring race week he was in Shanghai, and after his return to Hongkong he never enjoyed the best of health. There is a great deal of sickness in the Southern port just now, and quite a number of houg mea are confined to their rooms. Last week, I heard of six from one hong being down with illness.
