A Chinaman; whose name.is unknown, was (says the West Coast Times) sharp enough to get on the blind side of the Union Bank one day last week. It ap-pears-that a small parcel ©f gold of an 'ounce or two in weight had just been sold to the bank, when "John" entered to dispose of a similar lot. The parcel first purchased was not emptied from the scales, and the gold buyer gave the second seller the benefit in weight and value of the first parcel as well as his own. The •' Chinaman was too cute to point out the '.' error, but quietly pockete 1 the full amount tendered him, and now Detective Browne has his own work cut out to discover the man. It is said that the "Heathen ''Chinee" and his mates have since had a reunion, when poultry and fan - tan* to* gether with the banking facilities of the Colony, were most liberally discussed, the , solemn meeting terminating on the muriaial understanding of "no savee." One '"'of the Celestial brethren is reported to have saluted the detective officer with " Done Brown," while another kept adding to the aggravation by playing on his baDJo, " I know a bank."
