AN abominable attempt to mar the pleasure of the Taft party's trip on the railway line to Pampanga, prevented the distinguished visitors from seeing Camp Stotsenburg, the other day, About four miles away from Polo the two ea gines hauling the train stopped dead. Manager Higgins and the special members of his staff investigated the trouble and found that an old trick of the Spanish day had beenplay on the party. The foed-tubes had been stuffed with soap, and the boilers had "churned,"

HALF a dozen Chinese sailors belonging to the steamer Changsha confronted a Sydney magis- trate the other day to explain why they left the steamer on Sunday, July 9, with tobacco con cealed about their clothes. They were noticed by an officer on the day in question making their way from the ship to the only outlet from the wharf to the street. It was easy for him to „stop the six men, and, as there was no chance of escape, they yielded, with the result that 8th. of tobacco was found on the lot. Thus an at- tempt to defraud the Commonwealth Govern. ment of the sum of 26s, duty was frustrated. The Minister will six the penalty,

THE Board of Commercial Affairs at Peking has wired to the Viceroys and Governors that the reason for establishing the Board and Bureaus of Commercial Affairs in provinces is simply to protect commercial people, and now reports are current, that when a Chinese from abroad returns to his native province he is fre quently asked to pay out certain sums by the Bureau and that such a practice is useless and harmful therefore the members of these Burenius must stop such abusive practices or even the Viceroy or Governor cannot escape the responsibility for allowing such abuses be- ng practised.The Universal Gustle.

"JUDGE IDE as Governor; He Sits Alone on the Lid While the Taft Party Are Touring." Such is the heading to an article, in a Manila paper, the first paragraph of which says: Sitting alone in his chair of state, Judge Ide, vice-governor of the Philippine islands, is now monarch of all he surveys. He alone remains of the high officials of the government to guide the govern. mental car over its rocky road to peace and prosperity. Never before in the history of the American occupation of the Philippines has such an opportunity offered for some ambitious sop of adventure to rise with a following and seize upon the reins of government.

AT.1 a.. on Wednesday Messrs. Hughes and Hough sold by public anction, on account of the concerned, the steam launches Alexandra and Amalia both lying at the Army Service Corps Pier, Arsenal Street. The Alexandra, built of teak, has a length of 65 feet, breadth 1 feet and depth 6 feet, the engine and boiler being built by the Hongkong and Whampoa Dock Company. The Amelia, also of teak, has a length of Go feet, beam io feet, and depth 6 leet. The Alexandra was sold for $1,400 and The Amelia for $3,800, both being purchased after somewhat "keen competition by Mr. Chung Shun Koo, landowner. We understand that these faunches are to be used as ferries running between Yaumati and Hongkong.

OWING to difficulties which have arisen in connection with the attestation of signatures to documents executed in the Colonies, and required for use in England or elsewhere, it has been notified in the Gaxette: (1) That persons who may have occasion to send cer. Lificates, powers of attorney, judicial acts or other documents for legal use in the United Kingdom, should have these documents authenticated in the Colony, either by the Governor or by a notaty public duly authorised and practising in the Colony; (2) in cases where the documents are intended to be used in foreign countries, the parties should have the documents authenticated in the Colony, either by the Governor or by a notary public. in the latter case, the certificate of the notary public should be authenticated by the consular representative of the country in which it is intended to use the document, or, if there is no such consular representative in Hongkong, the notarial attestation should be the Governor.

THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, SATURDAY, AUGUST 19, 1905.

THE other morning, according to the Jadan Gazette, everything bathed in the air in Yoko- hama presented an extraordinary colour of light blas, which especially distinguished the shoji, until shortly after five o'clock, when the colour gradually disappeared. It is learned from the local meteorological station that the occurrence of this unusual phenomenon was attributed to the existence of a large quantity of vapour high in the air, upon which sunshine was shot through, thin cloud. There was an atmospheric depression (745 m.m.) in Yoko hama about the same time...

Tus following paragraph, from the Rangoon Times, will interest many people in Hong- kong. The Rev. Thomas Wright, BA, Port Chaplain, is announced to give the next lecture at the Y. M. C. A. on Tuesday even- ing, the 1st proximo. The subject is "A Piece Canton Insurance Office, Limited of Old China" and will deal with that great centre of British power in the Far East, Hong.

kong, and the neighbouring parts of China. China Traders' Insurance Company, Limited. The lecture will be illustrated by about 80 lantern slides, beautifully made by Japanese-

artists from negatives taken by the lecturer North China Insurance Clampány, Limited himself, and will include scenes from nautical and naval life. He will also give some speci

mens of Chinese music, vocal and orchestral, Union Insurance Society of Canton, Limited on the gramaphone.

FIRE INSURANCES.

THE Tientsin Chief of Police is we (Peking and Tientsin l'imes) observe, issuing notices Yangtste Insurance Association; Limiled in conjunction with the Tientsin Magistrate and Prefect against coolies and others going about the streets in a half clothed condition, also condemning wild singing and behaviour generally in the public thoroughfares. They maintain these things are against the usage of A civilized people and are despised by foreigners The proclamation orders the coolies and work ing classes to at least wear a small waist coat. The order is a very praiseworthy one no doubt, and we sympathise with the spirit in which it is issued, though foreigners who Hongkong, Canton & Macao Steamboat Co., Ld. know anything of the East and the exigencies of climate take the scantiness of costume to be met with everywhere in the summer months as a matter of course, and if they think of the matter at all we fear it is often to envy the barebacked coolie for his unconventionality, To ask the poor, sweating toiler to add to his discomfort even by one thin garment seems little short of cruelty, though as our travelled Chinese friends point out, there are places in Europe where the sun's rays heat as fiercely down, yet the European navvy maintains a decent reserve in the matter of bodily exposure, and so we suppose like every other custon the Chinese coolie can he taught to do the same. The order, however, is not likely to be very quickly understood or observed, as we hear it is couclied in language that even the educated find hard to under- stand, and the coolie class will not be able to read it at all.

IN an article on Society in Yokohama and other ports in the Far East, which appears in the Japan Advertiser, arising out of comments on a book with the title of "Yokohama Yarns," our contemporary says that-In so small a community, where sooner or later everything is known by everybody, all legitimate social aspiration on the part of those accustomed 10 genuine society at home are smothered by in- difference and contempt for what goes under the name here. The better people in this con- munity stay at home and mind their own business, having intellectual resources of their own sufficient to compensate them for the de- privation of the social stimulus which they have found in other lands. All the same, the com- plete absence of anything deserving the name of society in Yokohama is greatly to be de- plored, as the vital cause of the lack of moral ione which makes it possible for such a book as that just published to be regarded as repre- sentative of the conditions prevailing in the community. Furthermore, it should be noted as the most disastrous outcome of some of the stupid cliques which are here masquerading under the name of society, that young men arriving here, and finding no social stimulus or resources save those furnished by the bar- rooms, must needs be possessed of extraordin aty strength of character if they avoid drifting" into the moral maelstrom depicted, by this unspeakable book. Whether they succeed in getting into pacudo-society or are kept out of they are almost equally to be pitied-Japan
