In regard to the tragic death of Mr Claude Osborne a Sydney paper Btates : “ Some stir was caused by the action of the coroner in dispensing with the formality of an inquest in the case of Mr Olaudo Osborne who was found dead underneath the balcony ot the Australian Club, Sydney, the assumption being that he fell by accident. The reason given by the coroner was that there was no cause to suspect foul play, aud the thing looked so obvious that an enquiry was not nece [ sary. Of course, it was obvious enough that the deceased fell off the balcony, and no one seriously alleges that he was pushed off, yet surely the habit of falling off balconies is sufficiently un~ common to make the matter worth looking into.”

A Sydney paper states :—“ The luck of drunks was extended lately to two sober miners at the Nine Mile, Rushworth, Victoria. Returning to their camp at dinner time, one placed a billy on the fire to warm the tea. When he thought it was just on the boil he lifted the lid—and found several pounds oE blasting-powder frizzling inside. He was a nervy man, and didn’t drop it and run, but carried it to a distance and stood it in a shady spot to cool. Then he aud his mate had a strenuous argument about the wisdom of putting blasting-powder in a billy without saying anything about it.
