A WHOLE WEEK'S NEWSPAPERS IN ONE.
Hong Kong is at present facing a serious drought. According to a statement issued to the Press by the Direc tor of Public Works, Hong Kong's water supply will last" for eleven weeks-seventy-seven days. The authorities have been compelled to restrict the water supply first to ten hours a day, and then to seven hours. Great hardship is being felt by the Chinese who are now queueing up at the street hydrants throughout the day. Views on the water shortage expressed by several of the Colony's lead- ing men are printed in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

C. Mow Fung. Carvass ing was keen at the poll, a full story of which is given in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
