The new Nationalist party has for the last three years made great efforts enllat the sympathy of the labouring class, particularly in Shanghai, and has done much to cheek the Red labour movement.
Since its inauguration the party has published many books and pam phlets attacking the Marxian dee trines and denouncing the Kuomin tang for raking itself the tool of Soviet Russia.
Dr. Hu's attack on the Nanking Government and on Sun Yat Sen'e political theories has been express ed in his other writings and representative of a large section of sohor-minded Chinese people who are gradually realizing that China's political problems could never be settled so long as the Kuomintang Active Revolutionary Movement. party insists on its attempt to not up phiolute government by the

Shanghai, Oct. 18-Flourishing pistols in approved fashion and with the sureness and aplomb of the well 'organized
gang, seven poorly dressed Chinese coolly marched into the shroff's banking. department of the P.&O. Banking Corporation, & the Bund., at 5.83 p.m. and after a Ave-minute stay decamped as quietly as they had come with the cash box. containing Tis. 1,041 and two handfulls of notes believed to total somewhat over 8050.
During the five minutes much happened. Two of the gang had stood guard at the Bund entrance. to the small compound, one man had invaded the shroff's dining room where he found the Chinese unarmed watchman, who was effec- tively silenced with a pistol in his face, another had entered the small space for clients and cowed the clerks behind the iron railing, and three had gone for the door leading to the clerks' space behind the coun.

These latter with a sureness that ruised no question as to their know ledge of the interior arrangements, headed straight for the cash drawer and lifted the cash box from its accustomed resting place, deposited it under one of their long gowna and on the way out were joined by the others of the gang who quickly melted in the press of pedestrians along the Bund.
As soon as the astonished shroffs and clerks realied what had happ- ened they informed the foreign heads of the Company and the burglar alarm was set in motion.
It brought a police party on the double under Det-Sgt. Glaver from the Central Police Station, but so hastily had the robbery been carried out that by the time the police arrived their aid was, conůûned to listening to a score of explanations of how the affair had happened.
All explanations agree that the theft was put in motion and carried to success with a well planned smoothness that hinted' of much thought and a complete knowledge of the interior workings of the bank...

THE "OTHER MAN" AT LOVERS' INQUEST.
GAMEKEEPER WHO SHOT ON IMPULSE.
"It is not for me to dilate on the lovers' quarrel side of this business, but here you have a man anxious to get married who thought he wax getting on well." Then the other man turned up, and Morley was upset about it and lost his head."
Major Thomas Wilson, the coroner for Bury St. Edmunds, made this statement at the inquest at Cavendish, on Mise Norah Plumb, aged twenty-six, of the Bull Hotel, Cavendish, Suffolk, and Mr. George Newton Morley, a game- keeper, nged thirty-six, both of whom were found shot dead in the hotel kitchen.

Police Constable Talbot said that a letter was found Miss Plumb's room. It was signed "Alf," tad was written from an address at felington.
It stated:-
How are we going to work it when I am down there, because I don't want a row with anybody, but if he is going about carrying a gun I can just as easily carry a razor.
