painful to realise that men who have held the control of leading hotels in Europe have thrown up their hands in despair after a brief experience of Shanghai. The Hotel des Colonies only illustrates thedifficulties of managers and the captious criticism of shareholders. Three or four years ago the hotel had distinctly lost ground, but under now management it pulled together and paid ten per cent. for two consecutive years, and became known as one of the best hotels inlie East. Public recognition of this has been forthcoming, and has been orident in the popularity which the hotel has acquired for private luncheons, p·LEGRAMS: 'CARMORA&I," BORINGNG. dinners, and parties of every possiblo kind on festive occasions.
