THE EVACUATION OF MÀNOHURIA

On the lat instant (Jiji Shimpo's tole- grams) the Japanese Chargé d'Affaires in Péking proceeded to the Waiwupu and informed Mr Tang Shaoi that the "process of evacuation indicated in the Fukushima. Ornovaky Convention had been carried out by the Japanese forces as far as the line from Fakuman on the west through Tiehling to Fushun. It was therefore competent for China to send troops for the protection of the regions northward of that line within the limits of Japan's previous occupation, Lut in such as Japanese soldiers would be found guarding the railway, it was to be desired that the Chinese troops should

oid collisions with them.

Mr Tang is said to have expressed much satisfaction on behalf of his country with; regard to the bourse Japan is pursuing. As a matter of fact Japan had withdrawn all her military war establishment by the ond of March, but she is evidently determined thearry out the letter of the convention And she has done so to a day, for the convon- tion named the 1st of June as the date when her forces should be withdrawn to the south

of the above-mentioned line. Russia, on

ber side, was bound by the same convention

to

chom

retire northward to the line from Sanchingtsz ria Kungchuling to Itung- It would appear that she is fulfilling her engagement, for the railway from Changtu as far as Kunchuling was to be handed over by her on the 1st instant

As yet un telegraphic news of the transfer has been received-or, at any rate, publi -bed--but there is no reason whatever to anticipate any want of faith. The next move in the programme of evacuation will be consummated on August 1st, by which time Russia is pledged to have withdrawn to the Sankistsz-Chaugchun Palipao line, And Japan to the Hsinmintun-Mukden

It will be Fushun line. that Fushun is the pivot of Japan's two movements. After August there is no detinition of localities: the numerical programme alone is to be taken as a guide, namely, that by April 15th

TANSAN'SAVOY

PURL, Exquisite in Flavor, Stimula- (ing without Reaction, this life-giving, Natural Mineral Water gushes out of the mountainside at Takaradeka, near Kobe, Japan.

PURITY. Its source is amid hard volcanic rook, beyond reach of contact with any human being, and it is conveyed by gravity through a rock-hewn tunnel and concrete aqueduct to a sheltered enclosure, where, without pumping, bailing, or touch of human hand, it is placed by nachinory in sterilized bottles and packed in cases for shipment; thus, from its initial source protecting the water against possible taint of any kind. Percolating through several strata of virgin rock, it is saturated with their unsullied-mineral properties, and ng chemical skill can duplicate the living Tangan any more then the laboratory can evolve a living tree.

FLAVOR. Tandan gladdens the palate with a zest peculiar to itself, clean, crisp, novel, and delicious. Its appetizing taste packs of satisfaction, without savor of a feeling of fulness, however freply indulged in.

TANSAN is Nature's own distillation, and because of its absolute parity it blends with spirits, wines, atout, milk, and other liquors without altering the natural flavor,

cept to unfold it.

STIMULUS, Tansan is refreshful, and, by reason of its native qualitica, it axcites the appetite and stimulates the nutritive functions. It is persistently regulativo-without being laxative, and it eliminates from the problem of life the alments attributable, to the liver and kidaeys.

The supply is inexhaustible, boing an even flow, entirely independent of surface conditions of a wet or dry season, and there will never be necessity nor excuse for the artificial manufacture of Tansan, so that it will be forever free from the obnoxious taste peculiar to all salted and fabricated Visitors to the Spring find the entire plant open to inspection-there is nothing to conceal

TANSAN conduces to vigorous Health. It is Los Costly than a Restorativa. DRINK TANSAN.

COOLIES IN TROUBLE.

Europeans Complain.

There have recently been a great number of complaints from residents regarding the behaviour of chair and ricksha coolies. Usually, however, the people who complain are not anxious to prosecute but wish to avoid the time and trouble necessitated by doing so. To-day was an exception, however,

for it was a regular field day at the Magistracy for cases of this nature, no less than three Europeaus appearing in Court to prosecute chair and riokahs coolies.

In the first case Mr W. G. Humphreys premises without permission. He stated

Mr P. W. Goldring prosecuted a ricksha coolie from Kowloon on three charges (1)

Mr Goldring stated that he was in his private rickaha going along Gar- den Road, Kowloon, when the defendant, with his vehicle, suddenly rushed across the rond on the wrong side and col-ided with his rickeha, knocking it into the gutter and almost throwing him out, and breaking

Mr G. A. Woodcock proceeded against the bearers of chair No. 601 for refusing hire. The bearers did not answer, and their master, on being sent for, at first said that they had not time to come and then that he had told them to come but that they did not do so.

It is not easy to trace the course by which this simple, commemorative act spread all over China, nor is it possible to follow the development of this original idea, which has borno fruit as we see it to-day.

LIKIN ON MERCHANT SHIPS.

Aman Saga tert 27

Chang Chou, the chief adviser of the Board of Commerce, has suggested the establishment of Chamber of Merchant Ships in the Board of Commerce, and espe THIO obntract cially pointed out the necessity of o Lpg for likin on Merchant ships in tha Kiangau Province. He declares that the likin officials are generally prevented from putting hands on ships flying foreign flage for fear of creating troubles but threaten junks by every means and foreign flags thus increase day after day to the great loss of China. It would therefore be necessary, if the Chamber of Merchant Ships expected to recover China's Interest 'on' the waters, to allow it to con traat for likin on ships, and in doing this there would be no fear of unreasonably detatuing ships for examination and levying duties.

The Board has communicated the matte to the Viceroy of Nanking in order to in- struct the Chinkiang-Taothi who should

consult with the officials of foreign and native Customs.-Eastern Times.

There are yet nearly ten months allowed by the Treaty of Parts mouth for the withdrawal of the lately. belligerent troops, and we know that Ja- panese troops have been steadily with. drawn since that Treaty was signed till the number now remaining is estimated at 40,000. There are at least fully as many Russians still in occupation of the north, and it is chiefly those who are urging Japan to hasten her withdrawal, who are simultaneously claiming that Russis was only checked in the recent war and is waite ing an opportunity to make good her reverses, There is only one satisfactory solution and it is that China make herself anciently strong in the time given to to protect her own borders against aggres- lon from either side. There is some evidence at least that she is busy in so her doing, but she cannot press on preparations too fast, if she is to take

LITTLE BROWN PEAS. What impressed me more than anything else with the march of Japanese sailors through the city this week was its uni. formity. The round, brown faces suggested. only a few hundred little brown peas out of the same pod. Ten yards of a Japanese Davel procession is just as good as 10 miles. It is not even the same piece of elastic stretched out, because the colour of the elastic varies with the extension, and the colour of Japanese column does not. It is jart the repetition of the same detail—

IN FANTILE. MORTALITY. As regards the infant mortality in the Straita amongst the native populations, it will perhaps be found, that while insanitary surroundings and neglect count for much, the administration of improper food, or that used by adults, is the chief cause of mortality amongst the very young. And this fact, again, brings us round once more to the necessity, and the heavy moral responsibility resting on Municipalities, of instructing the native populations in the most elementary principles of hygiene. We still await the publication of that much- wanted leaflet in the vernaculars, which might be made to do so much by the popularising of the simpler rules of sauita. tion and health, amongst classes of the unity whose bygienic sins of omission

cor

and commission mainly result from a com- plete ignorance.-Singapore Free Press.
