When the loss was discovered, a report and a description of the watch was at once sent to the Police and circulated among all the stations. Meanwhile the thief had walked over to a pawn-shop, at 206, Wing Lok Street, and had just completed the sale of the watch, when an inquiring-cons'able enter ed, and witnessed the close of the transaction, Both the broker and the thief were promptly arrested and taken to the Station, and there, both were charged one with the theft of the watch, and the other with receiving property well knowing the same to have been stolen, or having good and sufficient reason to believe so. The first defendant was sentenced to three months' hard labour, and the second to twenty- one days.

About ten days ago, Mrs. Llonaldson, the well-known teacher of dancing, lost a gold brooch, set with diamond and rubies. A report was made to the police, and a watch kept upon | the various pawn hops, as a result of which Inspector McNab, of the Police force, was en- abled to recover the brooch yesterday, and place Ng Lan Lu, a conlie, before Mr. Gom pertz to be dealt with for being in unlawful pussession of the jewelry. It appears that the coolie picked up the brooch in the treet and kept it for a few days, being evidently afraid to pawn it at once. He waited until yesterday, when, unfortunately for himself, one of Inspec tor McNab's men was in the pawnshop, in plain clothes and recognized the brooch from the description circulated.-Mis.

Through the courtesy of Real-Admirat vop Holzendorff and by permission of the Officer Administering the Government, the band of S.M.S. Hanza gave a promenade concert in the Public Gardens yesterday afternoon. The ap preciation of the public of the musical treat provided for them, was amply manifested by the large gathering of the European section of the community present to enjoy the excellent rendering of the items so tastefully executed. by the Hansa's band. Ladies and children were especially in evidence. It is hoped that many like opportunities will be afforded the community of having the pleasure of listening to good music amidst such charming surround- ings as those of the Public Gardens.

"Are you French 7 ha asked.
No, English."
"You come from England?" And he looked at me a little shyly, as though he only wanted an encouraging word to fire off the string of questions that was on the tip of his tongue. "Have you any news?" he asked, at last. "Of what?"
"From China.!!! "China?"
"Why China?" I asked myself and him, for up to now, in common with most Englishmen, had regarded the war as a purely Russo- Japanese affair. Here in Russia, evidently, the scene of the conflict round Port Arthur is viewed as Chinese territory, which nominally, of course, it is.
Seeing my hesitation, he came a step pearer. to the point.
"What are the japanere doing?" he inquired anxiously, and in a half-whisper...
"There is no news at all. Everybody is preparing for the second move," I answered.
He seemed relieved. But what impressed me most about this little dialogue was the man's evident mistrust of the scraps of news that are furnished by the Russian newspapers, He seemed to feel that he, who any day might personally be involved in the conflict, was being kept in the dark while crucial events were going forward. "Why are they hiding -things from me?" he seemed to say; and there was something dumb and pathetic and doglike in his perplexity, I would.bave felt like that had I been suddenly thrust penniless and without a word of Russian into the bitter waste of snow and forest through which I had passed. Lost in that black and icy immensity, would have known the perplexity, of this Russian, whom to-morrow might find engaged in a war of whose progress and origin he seemed to have little knowledge beyand a vast and inarticulate mistrust.

The ordinance to provide for and regulate the employment of pilots passed through its final stages at the Legislative Council meeting yesterday afternoon.
The Attorney-General | (the Hon, Sir . S. Berkeley), in moving the second reading of the Bill, explained that its object was to provide for the exercising of con- iret over persons who practise as pilots in the waters of the Colony. He understood that at present there was a so-called pilot service, but the men who ply for hire as pilots are not licensed or qualified in the sense of having passed under examination or had the approval of any person competent to say whether the mans offering his services as a pilo: knows the proper thing to do. In one sense, he observed, it may be said that a place like this does not require pilots; the navigation is open, there n nothing intricate outside of the Colony, and there is no need to have pilots to bring ships into Hongkong or take them out patently the Harbour is so extremely crowded and the difficulties of finding their berths so considerable, that the Government has been approached by the shipping community and atked to provide some safeguard that persons who offer themselves for pilots within the waters of the Colony shall know what to do. That application, he said, was considered, with the result that the Bill has been brought in. He pointed out that there was no compulsion for Following is the programme of music to be anyone to take the pilot, nor by taking the pilot performed by the band of the 1st Sherwood to exempt a ship that took him from any con- Foresters on the New Parade Groudon sequences that may occur a collision or other Monday next, the 25th instant, from 5 to 6.0 wise.

What the Government wanted to do was to see that no one should offer his services as a pilot who was not reasonably considered to be capable of performing the duties of a pilot.

The Acting Colonial Secretary seconded, and the motion was subsequently read a third time and passed.

Owing to the popular desire to know some- thing about the war, the Government last week decided that an official bulletin containing ex- cerpts from Admiral Alexeieff's despatches should be posted up at the telegraph office whenever news came through. Last Sunday night the first of these balletins was issued
At the beginning of South African war similar bulletins were stack up in English post offices, and everybody went to see them. Of course 1 turned out when the first bulletin was posted up in St. Petersburg.
It was an amazing experience. Two friends and myself had walked down from the hotel. After we had waited for half an hour in the telegraph office the first despatch was brought out. Two hall porters handled it, and were evidently new to the business of sticking a type-written message up ight behind a pane of kiss The message dropped from its perch whenever they thought they had got it fixed. They tried again. They did not swear. Again it fumbled forward, and the whole business began again?" "After half a dozen attempts the message was fixed in position behind the pane of glass
