But while foreigners had built about 1000 miles, and had about 100 more under con- struction, the English firms had only 10 miles finished. Capital alone was wanted. The concessions held by English firms were among the very best iu China. In the battle of concessions we had then done well, and in the question of territory we had done so well that what was wanted was not more territory, but the development of what we possessed. The extension on the mainland opposite Hongkong was most valuable, as he could personally testify, having walked right across it.

For instance, in Sir Ernest Satow nt Pekin they had astrong man, quiet, resolute, and tonacious, with a thorough knowledge of the Far East and a special knowledge of our now ally, Japan.

The recent piracy case on the Canton river proves that the reckless spirit of these nefarious scoundrels is still un- broken, and that it is only their in- ability to board steamers, to rob and murder, which prevents them from per- petrating other deeds of horror. It is probably true that many serious rob. beries
rench the notice of Europeans, certainly never command their serious attention, and in this case it is only because a European has become the victim of the brutality of these pirates that this particular case has done SU. Yet the Chinese authorities know of these piracies, and profess to attempt their suppression. Recently, we happen to know, a new departure was made to intimidate these robbers, have been erected at different spots, along the banks of the rivers of the Canton delta, where a certain number of so-called soldiers are stationed, whose supposed duty it is to prevent these

ANOTHER GREAT FIRE.
In the case of Napoleon, the fiction of the stage has been more generous and more just to him than that of the three volume and more concise latter-day novel. And to our mind, Mr A. G. Wills, in d.. Royal Divorce, he come nearest the popu lar taste. He has gone right into the hoart of the domestic problem of the Master of Europe, and in the five acts we get glimpse of the strength and the weakness of his character. The dramatist believes in throwing history to the winds, when it suits him; just as Macboth sent physic to the dogs. And so we have the fond and beautiful Josephine with as from the first scene at Fontainebleau to the final farewell on the deck of the Northum- berland. Those who saw the play in Eng- and will notice several changes in the working-out of the story and the staging- the final set, for example, where instead of being at Portsmouth awaiting the arrival of the Bellerophon wo find ourselves on board the boat which is to take the fallen hero to the rock,-and a long and cheer- less decline unto death. It is needless to enter into the story itself. Let us speak of the playing of it.

about a life assur-

just what you
would want to know
about a bank or any other institution

thought of investing
What is the company's earning ability as shown by its past history?
What is the outlook for future dividends as indicated by its accumulated surplus?
These two ques-
