A burglar entered Nos. 15 and 16 Conuaught Road Weat during Sunday night and made a good haul of valuables. He was climbing down the scaffolding erected outside the houses for some repairing work when he missed his footing and fell into the road. His leg was broken and he had to be taken to the hospital in a

ambulance.

A Canton official on a visit here and living with relatives at No. 151, Pottinger Street, was attacked in Shantung Street at 6.30 p.m., on Sunday by an unknown man and stabbed in the abdomen. The man was removed to the hospital where he now lies in a very critical condition. His assailant got away. Political differences are believed to be the cause of the attack and it is thought the assailant was a Triad Bociety man hired for the job.
