This morning a representative of the CHINA MAIL called as the King Edward Hotel to renew his acquaintance with Mir Eugen Sandow, who, together with his troupe of pupils arrived in the Colony Jast evening. The hour was somewhat early and the prinos of athletes was found in a light flannel suit,having just left 1 bath -enjoying an early morning cigar.

He received the reporter cordially and at once not him at his ease by offering him a Boat on the verandah of his sitting room- and a cigar.

Mr Sandow, having heon interviewed so many times and expressed his opinion in all phases of physical culture, it appeared hard to question so as to keep off the beaten track, but a remark of Sandow's suggested first the question as to the advisability or otherwise of residents of the East indulging in strong physical exercise. On this point Bandow expressed himself in a very decided manner. Certainly it was highly advisable and necessary.'
