A WEEK'S PAPERS

IN ONE.

OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

AS A GIFT OR REFERENCE.

Either as a future reference or for sending away to friends abroad to acquaint them with the facts about China and Hong Kong, this week's number of the "Overland China Mail" will prove extremely useful.

Firstly there is the fully cabled report of the Extrality. Commission's findings-a document of momentous importance to the world." Instead of having to ask for information later on, every foreigner should have a copy on hand.

ANTI-FOREIGN TROUBLE AT HANKOW.

Similar in many respects to the wave of anti-foreign agitation at Canton, is the trouble that has broken out at Hankow. Each stage is carefully recorded this week, together with footnotes and explanations for non-Chinese,

THE PIRACY PROBLEM.

That the piracy problem is engaging the best attention is evident from the appointment of the "Sunning" commis sion, the "Gazette" announcement of which is reproduced in the weekly. In this issue will also be found the latest news about the raiding of an outlaw stronghold by military forces and the report of the first hearing against the "Sunning" suspects.

ALL THE LOCAL NEWS.

Other items of note in this week's "Overland" include: visit of the new British Minister to China: anomalies arising from Canton's taxes: St. Andrew's Day and Ball report in full; newsletters from regular correspondents; special articles; topical cartoons; social notes, &c.

READY TO-DAY.
