wisely in assuming such firm attitude and in giving a clear and emphatic pronouncement upon their action and views upon the gravest of many international questions that have arisen since the close of Parliament.

In view of the now rapidly approaching In- terport Cricket Match teams composed of members of the Rongkong Cricket Club, cap- tained as above, played an interesting game on the Club's enclosure this day. Owing to vari- ous circumstances play, which wsi arranged to commence at eleven: in the foreston, was not entered upon until nearly noon, when the junior team opened hostilities. The initial stages of the game were very poor indeed, the fielding of Mr. Hancock's contingent being much too good for the batsmen. The innings, deducting the tiffin interval, resulted in a total of 164, which, considering the time, was a very

poor showing. The score read as follows
