The opposition against the person of the Czar is increasing in the Imperial family. The Dowager Empress is trying her utmost to bring about his abdication, or at least his temporary retirement from the throne, It appears as if Nicholas II, could easily be persuaded to lay selde his crown. While he is at times beset with an access of autocratic impulse; he is more often filled with a sense of his own incom petence. He has frequently said to the Czarina Alexandra that he would willingly change places with the Superior of convent."

The people who say that the peasants. are incapable of taking an active part in the political life of the country do not know them. The opinions of such persons may by dismissed from the minds of all thought- ful people as mere empty and childish

F.A.G.in the Japan Chronicle writes:- There are terrible tales of typhoon damage. in Shanghai. By the way, where is Shang. hai? Isn't it where the tales that are not true come from? Some stories need to be taken with a grain of salt, but Shanghai is a river port, all fresh water full of mud and no salt. They say sampane were ply ing in the principal streets; but mud- dredgers have b. en needed there for many years, The country all round is d.ad-flat, and Shanghai is technically described by surveyors as a low-lying place. Other people say it is a low, lying place. Who- ever invented the commn deserves a racial,

As one example of the severity of the er h'in-typhoon, it is reported in the Shanghai papera that gentlenen wishing to go home from the Club had to call sampans to the Club steps. This is a poor excuse for coming homo late, with muddy clothes and a breath like a distillery ventilator. Shong- hai Clabbites must be growing very un- resourceful. 'Sampan, indeed, I can hear

Mrs Bubblingwell Caudle say, 'does that explain why you put your wet umbrella to bed and leaned yourself up in the hat-stand? And does a typhoon always make you kiss the ricksha coolio good-night? I know these typhoons; they all come from Shanghai.

As the old proverb. says, It's an ill wind that blows nowhere,' and this typhoon

(if real) must have done much good in washing the dirtiest place in the Orient. The native city of Shanghai is dirty, with plain, decent, common or garden' dirt, while the foreign Settlements reek and revel in a sort of dirt peculiarly their own.
