HANDLING THE RACE CROWDS.
Excellent Arrangements by Tramway Company.
Special arenagements are this year being ma le by the Hongkong | Tramway Company to cope with the unusually heavy traffic which marks Raco Wesk, änd- in this, connection attention is drawn to a notification which appears in our advertising columes. In formar years there has been much con- fusion when cars make the return ran, owing to there having been, only one stopping place for the cars, but a big improvement has now been instituted by arranging three distinot stopping places one at the usual spot, another behind the pari-muteol, and the other behind the Hongkong Club. stand, Passengers are therefore requested to wait at either one of these places, and they are asked to wait until directed by the Company's officials to board care. The apots will be marked by coloured indicating boarde, and as a one-minate, service will be maintained there' will be no need for the customary scrambling for sente.

One point to be emphasised is that the public should respect the desires of the Company to prevent overcrowding of the "doable-deck cars, and here it may be mentioned that only 20 pas- sengers will be permitted on the top of thess' cars. Standing in the passage-way leading to the top deck is not to be permitted, nor on the top deck itself. In the past it has unfortunately been the case that people have been in the habit of rushing on to the wrong end of the car, thus bom. pering the motor-man in his work. Not only does this mean loss of time, but the safety of those on board is also endangered by succeeded in the obstruction of the brake-gear. comfortable victory by three It may also be mentioned for the wickets and 28 rupe.
