This celebrated water paint is made in two qualities for Inside and Outside work
HALL'S SANITARY WASHABLE DISTEMPER is rapidly superseding wall papers in all tastefully furnished homes. It is made in 70 artistic tints, and only requires the addition of water to make it ready for use. It is quickly and easily applied with a whitewash brush, with half the labour and at one third the cost of paint. HALL'S DISTEMPER ensures cleanliness, and is pleasing to the eye. It appeals alike to artistic and practical house decoration.
HALL'S DISTEMPER is of special value in hot climates. Owing to its cool, pleasing colours, great weather-resisting and germ-destroying properties, it lends itself to every kind of wall, wood, brick or stone coating, possessing all the advantages of paint, colour- wash, and disinfectant at one third the cost of oil paint. It never blisters in the hottest sun, and the fact that it can be washed adds greatly to its sanitary advantages.

An official communication in relating the history of the peace negotiations, confirms that, at the moment when a rupture seemed imminent, President Roosevelt appealed to the Tsar's humanitarian sentiments, and beg- ged him to accept th8 new Japanese proposal that Russia should pay Japan twelve hundred million yen for northern Saghalien. The Tsar rejected this proposal, whereupon Japan re- nounced the re-imbnrsement of expenses and claimed southern Saghalien, undertaking not to fortify it, nor to take any military measures to keep La Perouse Straits closed. The effect the publication of the terms of peace will produce on the Japanese publio is awaited with impatience, and the apprehension is expressed that possibly the work of the conference may be destroyed. (Reuter)
The Government does not yet intend to issue the statement of the terms of peace, but the feeling is spreading that Japan has made great concessions.
The newspapers generally express extreme dissatisfaction at this prospect.
A leading radical paper urges the interven- tion of the people in order to prevent a national disgrace.
It is reported from several quarters 'that the Anglo-Japanese agreement expressly covers the co -tiugeucy of au attack on India. (It.)

The Great Eastern express from London to Cromer has been^derailed. There are 10 killed and 20 injured. (Reuter)

Not only by the young scholars, who vies the prospect with regret, is this fact-to be considered, but also by those to whom a knowledge of English, French, German, Arabic, and Greek is every day more necessary. All naturally enter their names at the Berlitz Schools (Alexandria and Cairo) whore the number of pupils belonging to the highest social positions increases from day to. day. 26381-1
—The continual increase in the demand for house to house delivery in Cairo and Alexandria renders it absolutely necessary that all persons in these towns desirous of suoh delivery shall have the number of the house and name of the street in which they live indicated on their correspondence. Should by any chance a street be unnamed, then the quarter of the town in which it is situated must be indicated. Attention to these instruotioDS is imperative to avoid delay and °rrors in the delivery of correspondence.
—We have received from M. Reiser, photographer, an excellent record of the partial eolipse of the sun at Alexandria in the form of a photograph which gives au accurate impression of Jtbe phenomenon as viewed from here. The sun appears as a small orescent surrounded in its immediate neigh- boured by an irregular sphere of light. The degree of darkuess is of course somewhat exaggerated on aocount of the lens of the camera having t6 be darkened so that a defined impression of the main objeot might be obtain- ed, but the appearance of the sea is very faithfully portrayed.

The receipts from October J, 1904 to August 26, 1905, amount to LE 144,180 showing an increase of LE 8,893, over the corresponding period of the previous railway year.—The Helonan branch receipts for the same weeks are L.E. 648 and LE 579, respectively, and those from the 1st January, 1905, amount to LE 26,588, showing an increase of L.E 2,080 over the corresponding period last year.
Throughout yesterday the Cairo streets presented an appearanoe of exceptional gaiety, both from the profuse deooration of almost every building and from the large number of people who seemed to be making holiday in honor of the great event of the celebration of the twenty-ninth anniversary of the Sultan's accession. To attempt any description of the deco rations would be to repeat an oft-told tale; they were very similar to those which wo have seen on many other occasions, with, perk aps, the exception that they were rather more extensive than usual, for the gene- ral feeling prevailed that the occasion should be one of exceptional rejoicing on account of his Majesty's happy escape from the dastardly plot against his life. Business was carried on as usual in commercial circles, but the dosing of the Ministries and public offices greatly increased the numbers seen in the streets during the day time. As the day progressed the crowds grew larger, and shortly after half past seven, the Esbakieh Gardens, in which the great festivities were to be held, were lit up, and many of the principal buildings were also most? effectively illuminated and afforded an exceedingly bril- liant appearance.
The gardens were thrown open to the publio at 9 p.m. and the view on entering was excel- lent A special approaoh to the reception tent was lined with lamps, Chinese lanterns were mng between these, while the red of the Turkish and Egyptian flags was to be seen everywhere.
It is needless to say that huge crowds as- sembled to assist at the festivities; the gardens seemed to be one mass of people, and the tents and booths of entertainment were orowded to their utmost oapaoity. Suoh a crowd was easily roused to enthusiasm by singers, danoers, tumblers, and contortionists, and good-humour prevailed everywhere. Military music and the noise of tom-toms and various other native instruments greeted the ear wherever one turn- ed, and at times the noise was almost deafening. Excellent order was maintained both inside and outride the gardens, and in spite of the groat crowds, many of whose members were every m 'ment in peril of being run over by arsbeah s frequently passing backwards and forwards, no acoidents, bo far as we are aware, have been reported. The police, under the direction cf the aoting commandant, are to be congratulated on the manner in which they insured the publio safety.
AT ALEXANDRIA.
The twenty-ninth anniversary of the acces- sion of H.I.M. the Sultan was officially oalebrated by a banquet given last night at Rrjs el Tin Palace by, H.E. Fakhry Pasha, the acting Regent. Among the guests we— tba. Ministers, the British Chargd d'Affaires and the members of tl*e Consular and Diplomatic Corps,' the Commissioners of the Caisse de la Dette, the Aoting Advisers and Under-Seore- tarios of State, the Heads of Administrations, the Officer Commanding the Army of Occupa- tion, etc. The Palace had been brilliant- ly doooiatod for the occasion, the Aida was very prettily and effectively hung with lanterns, and the Abd el Moneim from time to time throw her searchlight over the water on to the palace. After tbe banquet came a very flue display of fireworks, which lasted till about 10 p.m., oulminating in the discharge of a huge sheaf of rockets, which lit up the whole harbour, first with rose and green and then with golden and purple light
The Khedivial Yacht Club was lit up, and the fifty diners on the verandah had an admirable view, whilo a good band and an oxcollent dinner specially prepared for the occasion made the evening very agreeable. After dinner tho fireworks could be seen admirably from the olub jetty, and few of the members loft the olub honse till long after midnight.
Elsewhere on the shore both the Coast Guard station and Custom House were decorated and the Ottoman Bank and Gonvernorat were illuminated with hundreds of small lamps, that formed among other patterns the star anc crescent of the Turkish Empire. Turkish musio, or what we believe to have been Turkish music, was played by a military band near the Gonvernorat and some speoial performances were given at various musio halls which attract- ed large audiences.
The Ras el Tin road was orowded by persons anxious to witnoss the fireworks, and native Alexandria as a rule retired late to bed.

As we go to press the news reaohes us by pri- vate telegram that the Turkish foroes have recaptured Sana' from the Yemen rebels. This viotory of Ahmed Faizi Pasha will come as particularly gratifying news to a seotion of the Moslem world, occurring as it did on the oocasion of the anniversary of H.I.M. the Sultan's accession.
We mult postpone further remark upon this great event in the history of the present rebellion in the Yemen until our next issue, as time prevents us referring to it at any length.
The "Journal du Cairo" has recsived a communication from the Socidtd des Suoreries et de la Raffilerie d'Egypte, which we give in English and French owing to its great important to the public, to the effeot that as soon as th% death of M. Cronier was known at Paris, the Administrative Board met to discuss the situation. MM. Barois, Laronx, de la Bouglise and Dorison were present and Sir Elwin Palmer and Sir E. Cassel also attended the meeting, their functions being purely advisory. In consequeuoe of the advice of these gentle- men and of Me. Barboux and Me Carton de Wiart, who were also present, the Board has given orders to the Cairo headquarters of the 3ncreries d'Egypte to publish the balance sheet up to date as soon as possible. M. Girard, the chief accountant of the company, has therefore been recalled from leave and will arrive at Cairo next Tuesday. The balance sheet will be published in the course of next week.
In reply to a question asked by a representative of our contemporary "Le Journal du Cairo", the Hon. A. Davey made the following statement. 'Even should M. Cronier have fraudulently pledged the company's credit, which is still a pure hypothesis, we have every reason to hope that the crisis will terminate happily and that nothing will justify the fears of some alarmist,'. Our advice to the public— the only advice we can give, under the circumstances—is to wait for more news from Paris as calmly as possible It may not be exhilarating, but it is the only possible course.
Le "Journal du Cairo" se conformant à un dir exprim* par nous et par tons les d*ten- teurs d'actions Sucreries s'est adre«s* aux ad- ministrateurs du Cairo pour avoir des *clairois- wuniwn Uu «rr lo Kraob Cronier.
MM. Davey, Nans et Ninoi ont fait les de- clarations snivantes: D6s que le d*c*s de M. Cronier a et6 connn, il y a eu Paris one reunion immediate du Conseil d'administratiou, à lequelle etaient presents MM. Barois, Leroux, de la Bouglise et Dirizon. Assistaient egalement à cette re- union, mais* k titre pnrement consultatif, Bir Ernest Cassel et sir Elwin Palmer. D'acoord avec ces messieors et sur le conseil des avocats Me Barboux et Me Carton de Wiart, les mem- bres du Conseil d'administration ont donue l'ordre au sihge de la Societe au Cairo, d'etablir le bilan jusqu'a ce jour.
Pour hater cette operation, le comptable de la Societe, M. Girard, a ete rappeie d'urgence. II sera an Cairo mardi prochsio. La Societe des Suoreries ne pourra dono satisfaire la legitimo curiosite du publio que qnand les comptes seront termines, e'eat-k-dire dans le courant de la semsiue prochaine.
Le reporter du journal ayant posd aux membres du Comite la question de savoir dans quelle mesure les operations persounelles de M. Cronier pouvaient engager les Suoreries. II est impossible, lui a-t-il ete repondu, de connaltre la v*rit* avant que les comptes per- sonnels de M. Cronier aieut ete etablis à Paris. II est possible quele krach ah one repercussion ioi, mais ce n'est pas du tout sflr et en tons oas les depfiohea re9ues jusqu'ici de Paris ne nous laissent rien deviner.
Toutefois, la situation actuclle n'arrfite en rien le travail des Sucreries et toutes les ope- rations oourantes pour preparer la campagne prochaine suiveut le cours normal.
M. Davey ajoute que la question de la re- percussion du krach mise à part, et il iusiste encore sur ce fait qu'il est absolument impos- sible d'en appreoier à l'henre actuelle les consequences, la situation de la Sooiete se trouvait cette anneepartioolikremeut florissaute. L'exer- oice s'annon^ait superieur aux precedents. "Tout nous laisse esperer, difc-il, que mfime au cas encore doateux oh M. Cronier aurait en- gage iliegitimement notre societe, la crise se rdsoudra heareusement et fans jastifier la pani- que de qnelques alarmistes."

One of the spectators has kindly famished as with the following interesting account of the eclipse as seen from the roof of the Savoy Hotel, Assouan :—
After 8nme discussion as to where to go to see the 6clipse at Asrouan, whether it would be best to mount a hill on the west bank, hang abont one of the missions or go on to the roof of the hotel, we settled on the roof as eaeier to climb than the hill and nearer to refreshments than either of the others. As it turned out, it was an excellent place to see it from. A field glass, with the object glasses smoked, and a separate blue glass, formed an easy and efficient means of seeing the eolipee from a layman's point 'of view, and allowed two sun spots to be easily distinguished. Mounting on the roof one saw the first contact which took place oh the south east-comer of the rim cf the sun. In watching the different phases for an hour or so until totality, it was interesting to remark the decreasing glare and heat as the sun became more covered, but up to the very last a smoked lens was necessary ou the field glasses.
When almost half covered, the effect on the landscape was as if one was looking through blue glass. A strange effeot, very easy to notice when once seen, was that rayB of light when broken by branches of trees, etc. would not appear to be made up of multitudes of circles of the same form as the sun, which is how we always see the m, but they were made up of multitudes of crescents of the same form as the partially eclipsed sun. This was bast seen where the rays were thrown on a wall which had been broken up by straw matting with which a window was entirely oovered.
The period of totality, which lasted about two and a half minutes, was intensely interesting .and all too soon over, there was so much to look out for in such a short time. ? The shadow bauds, which occur just before and just after totality were seen well on a sheet hung on a wall.
When most clearly defiaed they appeared as parallel bands of light and dark shadows about four inohes wide. They seemed clearest just after they were observed, both before and after totality, and gradually faded away. They moved across the sheet in a second or two in the same direction as the shadow of the moon passed across the sun, and were inclined at about right angles to the inclination of its path.
No sooner was the snn entirely covered than an orange-red eroption was remarkable at the 8pot where the light of the snn was last seen; this gradually diminished in size and di- sappeared. A similar spot, observed a few seconds before totality was over at a point diametrically opposite to that mentioned above, which increased in sizs until it was absorbed, in the light of the snn.
The oorona, which is a halo of light round the eolipse with loDg rays shooting from it, appeared as canary-yellow for a depth of about one tenth of the sun's diameter and faded off into an irregularly shaped cross whose longest arm was two or three snn diameters. The ap- pearanoe of these arms was that of thin wind- tom clouds on a background of inky blue, the eolipse itself appearing absolutely black. The totality phase was, so far, more interesting than the phases where the sun was slowly being covered and the hot roof of the hotel was deserted soon after totality, refreshments being found to be more interesting than watching the sun reassert itself.
Of the Boientifio instruments the "oross-eyed lady" belonging to the Amerioan expedition o tiled forth most remarks. It conserted of four telescopes ooupled up so that eaoh gave a large plate photograph of a quarter of the sun's sur- face. It required seven men to work it, one to change each plate half way through totality, one to put on the ' oap," one to count the time on a pendulum, and one to give the word to the plate changers. This took a deal of rehearsing to get the four plates changed together in the shortest possible time, and the "dress rehearsal" was given the evening before in twilight, approximately that expeoted at the eclipse, when the plates were changed in eight seconds.
All the telescopes gave photographio records, and they or the rtHectors were kept bearing on the sun by clockwork. They were mostly placed horizontally, the sun's image being re- flected into them.
The Prime Minister is expeoted to return from Europe on or about October 15.
Lord Edward Cooil Pasha arrived from Cairo yesterday for the official banquet given at Ras el Tin Palaoo.
Mr. L. hidings left for the United States on Thursday. The future Amwioan diplomatic agent to Egypt will enter upon his new functions on Nov. 1st.
Commandant Lemairo of the Congo Free State's force* has arrived from the Sudan, when be has been engaged in the important task of the delimitation of the Sudan-Congo Free State frontier, and is now staying at hepheard's Hotel.
In continuation of my report on the partial eolipse as seen from here, 1 might add that the actual amount of the son's disc which was obscured amounted to 27'30'. This is the degree as measured by a good sextant, and, I should say, is at any rate approximately accurate. Another point of interest which I might remark on is the fact that, in spile of a southerly wind, which ordinarily lowen the depth of water at this part of the ooast, this morning there were 37 am. more water at the guages than normal; and it is probable the same phenomenon will be noticeable during some days yet, in a gradually diminiahing degree.
I hear that yesterday the ooastguard bn the canal succeeded in oapturing some ten bags of hashish without much difficulty near Dover soir. It is not known whether the smugglers were taken or not.
This company, which continues to draw good houses, is giving, in addition to the usual performance, on Sunday a matinbe especially for the younger generation. The biosoope is invariably well received, and the programme generally teems successful.
A slight collision occurred on W ednesday between two ships manoeuvring close to the Canal entrance. The damage to both was slight, with the exception of the fact that the search- light of the larger was, I believe, badly broken.
The Foudre and her attendant fleet of torpedo boats areto leave here early on Sunday so that the latter may be able to reach Sues before nightfall The . Foudre will, however, anohor for the night in the Lakes and proceed on Monday at daylight.
Several members of the New English Club have organised aquatie sports to bp held close to where the Congal now lias on Saturday afternoon. I hear the entries are numerous, and everything points to the probability of a. successful and amusing meeting. Port Said greatly lacks the forms of amusement so common elsewhere, and the advent of soch in the shape of gymkhanas and sports is always received with much pleasure.
Daring the past week we have had most nmbearably damp, hot days. Tbe morning sun has frequently heralded a light southerly wind which has usually fallen entirely by 9 a.m. leaving us with a damp heat throughout the day. Complaints are beard on all rides, and it is sinoerely to be hoped the welcome change will Boon come.

To the Editor of the Egyptian Gazette.
Sir—I was very glad indeed to read your re- marks on the above in your issue of the 30th of last month. It is not, however, only the employes of the Ministries of the Interior and Finance who indulge in illegal broking, but the employes of the post office, and espe- cially those of the Mixed Tribunal, are to a very large extent implioated, and it is quite time for the authorities to intervene and put a stop to suoh dealings, by insisting upon their employes adhering to the rules, and imposing, severs punishmsnt on ai y one in- fringing same. These employ**, owing to tkeir position, are able to learn more than tho pro- fessional broker,, and they thus come between biyer, seller, and broker, and very often spoil a transaction half conoloded. 'Government should, indeed, impose a license tax on pro- fessional brokers, end I am sure that all respoo- table br ken would gladly pay even LK 80 far the first year, and five pounds or more per year for the renewal of suoh lioensos, provided that e clause is irserted to the iff sot that no sole shall he legal union signed b, . lioensed broker. In this way there weald he fewer broken, to the benefit of buyer, seller end broker alike. I hope that yea will find my suggestion a fair one.—I am. Sir; etc.

RELIABLE BRITISH GOODS.
The new appointment of Lord Minto serves to give prominence to teh fact that in his brother, the Hon. Arthur Elliott, he has a distinguished opponent of the fiscal reform of which he is an enthusiastic supporter. This is the more interesting from the circumstance that Lord Lanadowne, one of his Viceregal predecessors, finds himself in like cae, Lord Edmond Fitzmaurice being a particularly active Lieral. Families are much divided now-a-days. We see Lord Tweedmouth criticising the speeches of his nephew, the Duke of ariborough, and Mr. Victor Cavendish, the Duke of Devonshire's heir and nephew, assailing the arguments of his uncle. The Palmer brothers vote in different lobbies; and while Sir Edgar Vincent proposes an anti-reform resolution on the fiscal question, Sir Howard, his brother, is the man to move the amendment to it.
