The New Pets.

Maud and Willie and Kate were playing
in the barn one day when they heard a cry
like baby's Kate said it must be baby
who had got lost in the hay, but Maud was
old enough to know better than that. She
climbed back Of some old workbenches,

three black and white puppies. They want

coachman, said they were much better Off
where they were. Besides their mother
was the coach dog, and she lived in the
barn and would grieve very much if her
puppies were taken from her
So the children let them remain. But
they visit them every day and watch them
grow, and it will not be long before they
will be large enough to run about. Then
John says that Kate shall have the pret-

shall have the other two.

Intelligence has reached Canton
from Kui Hsien to the effect that on
the Oath ultimo an extensive fire
broke out, resulting in over sixty
houses being reduced to ashes. While
the flames were raging, some soldiers
prowled about to snatch things from
the people in the vicinity. This was
discovered by the San Tszes, and on
the 9th ultimo meeting was held
at which it was resolved to file a
petition to the District Magistrate,
praying for the punishment of the
soldiers.

A Cold Snap.

Most extraordinary weather was
experienced in Hongkong and
South China during the week end
ing January 10, says the Hongkong
Press. Saturday was fine, but
cold, and as the day wore on the
temperature fell rapidly. On Sun
day rain fell in frequent showers
and on Tai-mo-shan and the ranges
of hills to the westward what was
supposed to be snow was seen, but,
judging from subsequent expert
'ence in Hongkong, it was probably
ice. On Monday it was again
showery, but a hard frost had set
in at the Peak, with the result that
the rain froze as it fell, and every
tree, shrub and leaf became coated
with ice; icicles hung from the
caves of the houses, the water pipes
were frozen, and the tackle at the
signal station was so firmly en-
crusted with ice that for two
days no signals could be shown.
AT Canton and Macao similar
weather has prevailed and great
suffering has been caused amongst
the poorer classes by the intense
cold. At Canton charitable relief
in the shape of food and clothing
has been dispensed to the beggars,
but the lepers, it is reported, have
been refused participation in the
distribution and have been left to
die from starvation. No such
weather has been experien ced here
within living memory.

WITH AUTHORITY
PROCLAIM ALTON.

In the past the people of
Honolulu have been under
heavy burdens, because of the
high and uncalled for prices
charged for staple articles; the
protests Of the community
passed unheeded, and all eff
forts to produce a better state
of affairs failed. In conse-
quence the people were dis
tressed beyond measure. 1t is
evident that some move should
be made to equalize matters,
and give the community a
share Of the profits heretofore
enjoyed by those who have
been instrumental in keeping
prices at nigh water mark
