DISASTER IN JAVA.
Semarang, May 19.
A stream of mud from the alde of the mountain Telemojo, has wiped out the whole of the village of Likasan, in Mid-Java. Forty- seven of the Inhabitants perished, and only five managed to escape from the terrible avalanche.
The road near the mountain vil- lage of Salatiga was destroyed for a distance of seven miles, and many bridges collapsed.

An intriguing "inner" story of the return to the Canton Opium Suppression Bureau of 66,600 taels of material seized by local Revenue men in March, is an exclusive feature of the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL. The huge seizure, which is described as being, Yunnan raw opium, was found aboard a nameless launch which ran aground in Hong Kong waters. But after lengthy representations, it was found to be "material for the manufacture of anti-opium medicine” and was accordingly handed back!
A sensation was caused in Chinese circles by a brutal murder of five people in a bank. The maddened assailant then attempted self-destruction, but was overpowered, and taken to hospital. A full report appears in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
Yet another trial was stopped by the jury at the recent Criminal Sessions. In this case, a Chinese was charged with murderous assault during the strike of 1925. The victim had since died, and counsel for the defence had some scathing comment to make about the case. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL carries a complete report.
The Colony said a reluctant "Good-bye" during the week to two well-known figures in the community. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL has the only complete account of a presentation by Chinese teachers to Mr. E. Ralphs, acting Director of Education, who has devoted 35 years to the cause in the Colony. Colleagues in the Police, Force also bade “farewell" to Inspector Donald Macdonald, who is retiring after 22 years' service. The presentation by brother officers, together with particulars of the Inspector's.. career, is fully described in the present Issue,"
In North China, the Kuominchun and Allied armies claim outstanding successes, which are vehemently denied by Nanking. A startling rumour is now current to the effect that Dr. C. T. Wang, Foreign Minister, is about to resign. Latest dispatches on the troubled situation appear In the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
