Amusing Bulls.

A certain politician, lately condemning
the Government for their recent policy
concerning the income tax, is reported to
have said: They'll keep cutting the wool

Extract from a speech made at a meet

An lrishman, in the midst of TRADE
against landlords and capitalists, declared
that "if these men were landed on an I'M
inhabited island they wouldn't be there
half an hour before they would have their
hands in the pockets of the naked saw

Only a few weeks ago a lecturer at big
meeting gave utterance to the following:

an unseen hand.

NO WONDER
That the Japanese Have the Best of
the Chinese.

the Chinese.
The truth is that if the Japanese do not
sweep the Chinese from the sea then study,
skill, devotion and experience go for
nothing, and there is no need for us to
train our naval officers at all. One thing
only could save the Chinese on the sea
the enlistment, by large promises of
money, of European naval officers, in
whose hands complete and unfettered con-
troll should be placed. The Chinese sea-
men are not wanting in courage, but
naturally enough they have no confidence
whatever in their leaders, and they would
probably fight well enough to give their
undoubtedly fine ships chance if they
were well commanded. Even in this case,
however, the fear would be that the ships
have been allowed to deteriorate to such an
extent that nothing like their best could
be got out of them.
l remember once being shown by Chi
nese naval officer over one of their biggest
ironcladS, which was on a cruise at the
time, and therefore presumably in first
rate condition. | noticed gun carefully
protected in q canvas cover. AS we passed
it, l asked casually what it was. The
officer explained with pride that it was a
new quick-iring gun, and called quarter
master TO remove the covering. The order
was obeyed with evident reluctance, and
when the gun was at length exposed it
proved to be used by one of the watches as
q receptacle for their tchow," and was
filed with chopsticks and Uttered with rice
and pickles.
OF course, promptly looked the other
way, but it required no knowledge of Chi
nese to interpret the remarks of the officer
to the quartermaster. No doubt the whole
watch went through the process of 'eating
bamboo" the moment ] was off the ship;
but the Chinese are incorrigible. IT would
be diseouraging to a European engineer,
who should be appointed to Chinese
ship, to find that if there were any subor
dinate boiler small enough for the purpose
it had probably been used for stewing dog.
