OPIUM FOR AUSTRALIA.

A NEAT SMUgoling schrME.

To the course of the hearing of the charge of conspiracy preferred against two Customs of ficers and a policeman, at the Central Criminal Court at Derlinghurst, a peculiar saccession of circumstances in connection with devices con

ceived for smuggling" opium was brought to

light,

One portion of an' elaborate scheme forma. Inted, according to a statement of Charley Yen, a principal witness in the case, was of a some- what ingenious character. Yen, said that he was Interviewed by them on the 'subject of entering upon the buslaess of smuggling in an extensive manner. They required a comple of hundred pounds or so of capital (a mere trifte. when the profits were considavad), which would; Josure a safe reture of moonys sufficient to cover the, cost, in about a single trip if they were lucky, The money was to be invested in

■ launch, an up-to-date affair of ocean-going capabilities, which war to be used outside off The Coast between the Heads and the Hawkos bury River,

The launch was to be fitted up with a com- plete fishing plast, and, as genuino fishermen, they would try their luck Woy Woy, or some Diber spot favoured by piscatorial advesitirers. They would be well posted in details regarding the movements of the steamers, and on their particular vessel coming into view, would put off and intercept her, quietly, of course, bat lay .of in her track all the same.

The oplum would be cast overbosed from one of the stern ports under the counter und, as it would fit, and the tins would be painted red, there would be no difficulty in keeping an eye upon them. As soon as ibe vessel had made an offing southerly, the long string of red floats would be picked up and a course steered for Sydney..

There would, of course, be a risk attached to alf this, and they were open to suspicion at al- most any time; but they had lump card up the slieve. The occupants of the boat would bb.then innocent enough, for they would be en royle for the Customs, expecting on arrival to receive the raward of merit due to such.zealous officers; who, acting upon the spur of duty, hud. given up the delights of fishing for the more commonplace enterprise of serving the King..

FROM THE FLOWERY LAND.

ANTIQUR CHINESE COATE FÓN MAYTAIN BRIDES,

The list of presents at a' vary fashionable wedding the other day included an antique embroidered Chinese cont for the bride.---`

A Morning Leading lady representative who made laquities at Liberty's on the subject of these Onlestial garments was'informed that the Arm bad imported there for the past 15 or 20 yours, but that it was only recently that there was a distinct boom in them.

"

"The mandarin's coat la really the Chluase Court dress, and is wora by both men and wo-

men,"

The most sought after colour by connoisseurs is yellow, which is worn only by the royal fami- 17. - A very deep indigo purple, which looku black at night, and red are the popular colours. White in rare, since it symbolises mourning, and a good green is very expensive,

1

EXQUISITE DESIGNS These coals are band embroidered in the mosi exquisite designs, the silk both of the coat and the embroidery being vegetable dyed in the older examples.

|

The Chinese are unequalled in the art of needlework, and some of the examples shown are marvellous in, conception and execution, at'

the least 12 months belog spent over the work on a single coat.

The coats are originally lined with fur, but few reach this country in that state. The fur in removed before the coat goes to the Chinese pawnshop, where the agent buys it. Exch coat before leaving China is freated with borax, and on arrival at Liberty's is baked at their dyers'. Some of the coats are in such poor condition that they have to be tarded into cushion or piano covers,

SUPPLY GETTING SHORT.

The supply of the finer specimens is, of course, beard in course of time to come to an end, and at regarde antiquity it is difficult to gange the date of a coat accurately. ordinary age of an old coat will range from, 25 to to years and its price from about seven guineas upwards...

The

SOMA, LACONIC British Wills.

, יי

Three yours ago Alphonse Heary Straus left a fortune of Ex96,211 in a will of forty-three words, bequeathing the whole of it to his wife. Thus the estate was disposed of at the rate of about £7,000 per word. Lord Mansfield found half a sheet of note paper ample for the disposal of his world possessions. Sir James Fitzjèmes Stephen's will began and ended in thirteen worlds. A desen lines served to dispose of Lord Russell of Killowen's estate of early £150,000, while Lord Brampton, who died two years ago, disposed of his estate of nearly

There are several parallel cases to that of Only in part, though, for, should any sock Mr. Pitcairo, formerly assistsut to the president calamity befall them, they were to deliver up of the Pennsylvania Railway, who, it was re- one-ball only, or less than one-half of the leat,cently reputed, left a fortune of three millions saying: "This is what we found out on the sterling to bin widow in a will which contained ocean. "This is the opium which was thrown only twelve lines of typewriting. overboard." They would then receive credit for their real, and, wicking the other eye, get rid of what they had hidden away. The scheme, however, fell through, for the police, being seized of matters connected with the pro- cosa of bringing nshare the prohibited drug, were able to lay, their plans accordingly. A schema somewhat on the lines detailed by Charley You was put into operation, when some" persons, ona of whom was a Chinese, picked up a large consignment of (opism our | side the Heads, which, it was stated, had been thrown from an out-going steamer. They£142,000 in 40,3 Worde, made towards Sydney with it in a sijam launch. They were chased by the Customs officers and captored, cargo and all, before they could get rid of the drug, although many opportunities had offered on the way.

THE POLAR GRAZH.

FROJECTED HUNTING EXPEDITION AMONG

THE ARCTIC BARGE..

The Polar craze is spreading far and wide, and the only thing that arctic explorers are sorry for is that there are no more North Poles to fiod-two having been discovered already. But there is still a wonderful El Dorado away up in the neighbourhood of the Great Ice, and adventurers with time and money to spare will no doubt read with a thril the advertisement of Mr. Saudon Perkins, F.R.GS., who, once. more hearing the North a-calling, bas issued ...the following.

Arctic, big game hunting.-Sandon Per- 'kios, 1.8.09, is now arranging Party for abova for April, 1910: Profit and Pleasure. Particulars, address Saudos Perkins, Coli-

"

The shortest will on record was that, of F, O.

W. Thorne of Streatham, who, on the back of an old envelope, wrote: "All for mother.-C. T." and thus disposed of ble property, amount. ing to £8,350. Apother laconic will was that of Robert Ediestar, who died in 1907, and whose will ran thus: "I leave all that I am possessed of to my sisters, Marian and Frances Edleston, in equal shares," ao equally brief at. tastion clause reading: Witcussed in presence af each other," with witnesses.signatores and date.

As a contrast, one might mention the will of the late Lord Grimthorp, in the framing of which no fewer than 11,070 words ware used, and that of Edward Busb, a retired Gloucester engineer, who died last autumn worth 114,813, and disposed of it in a will contalning 25,000 words.

THE WEATHER.

The following report is from Mr. F.G, Figg. Director of the Hongkong Observatory :—
