On the hill Chinese li south east of Taipingchlai and outside of Tasishan and at several other places the Japanese had built forts, and the Russian fort at Tayihshan had been destroyed by the Japanoss but both the Japaneso and the Russians do not occupy it now, and they are facing each other separated by this mountain. Recently there have been no engagements 'specially to be mentioned but only intermittent can nonading is heard. The Russian shells from Goldon Hill do not carry to a long distance and drop before they reach their destination and often kill the Russians themselves. Sometimes those shells when fired explode immediately on leaving the guna,

Baffled Correspondents. Captain Lionel James and Mr Lewis, two of the leading war correspondents on the Japanese side, turned up at Shan- haikwan recently by the Newchwang train. Capt. James wore a beard that would have done credit to Moses after his prolonged sojourn in the wilderness, save only that it had a very Anglo-Saxon auburn hue, Tho two correspondents had just come down from Liaoyang. It seems scarcely credible, but it is the astonishing fact, that though within 15 miles of the scene of one of the greatest battles of modern times they were not allowed to see anything whatever of the fighting!-China Times.

A rather amusing incident-to the specta- tors-happened just before the commence- ment of the Toam race. Two of the officials, Measra E. M. Hazeland and A. Humphreys wore standing on the staging at the end of the bath when, it collapsed, precipitating them into the water. A hearty roar of laughter rose as the two Committee-men came to the surface, and the mirth increas od as they endeavoured to struggle into a boat lying handy.
That this year's aquatic sports were the best ever held in the Club is the general opinion; notwithstanding the Water Polo final.
The Honorary Secretary, Mr H. C. Auston, worked hard to ensure success, and in this he was worthily upheld by his able Committee, who devoted considerable time and energy to the directing of affairs. The Steward of the Club, Mr C. Lesbirel, was also to the fore, and although the atton- dances eclipsed anything in the past, the accommodation was ample.
The results of Saturday's racing were as followings –
