ACTION BY THE. GOVERNMENT, Events are moving in connection with the extraordinary affair at the temple near Pudu op Monday night, says the Malay Mail of July 19 Hitherto there has been an element of mystery in connection with the strange 'ipcident, but there is no longer any room for doubt that the whole occurrence was the outcome of the machinations of a secret society posing abdes the garb of religion.

The temple in question was built, if we're- member sightly, some four and a half years ago; at least, it was commenced then; but it has been extended from time to time, and even at the moment when the recent outbreak occurred, 8.45 pm; and 9 pintų 9.45 pm to 11:15 additions were just being mada to it. 11 betong-

persed the parody: Religion was made for mau, not mão for religion; for we are informed that those connected with the temple in question were merely human beings of rather less than ordinary calibre-meo who, too idle to endeavour to earn an honest livelihood by legitimate means, resorted to underhand does to enable them to lead a life of ease, if not luxury, by plundering their ignorant follow-men. And if was through the cunning of such men us- these that the scene of the sharp tussle of Mon

day night sprang into existence. But we must leave it for a moment in order to bring events up to date.
