FATHER FROEWIS.
RUMOURED DEATH FROM TORTURE.
ECHO OF OUTRAGE."
The latest Information received from Sinyangehow with regard to the capture and detention of Father Froewis is contained in a letter which reached Hankow, relates the "Central China Post" of Angùst 16. This letter states that:--
"The aged missionary after hav ing been dragged out of bed and al- lowed to put on his trousers and shirt, was pulled along in all haste. by the bandits. After a forced march of ten li the bandits halted to refresh themselves at a water- mellon stand. The merchant at the stand seeing the poor old mis- afonary in so miserable a condition drew near to him and began to question him.'
In a Pillful State.
"Father Froewis was unable to talk, and only pointed to his feet and legs which were awollen and bleeding. After having completed their water-melon feast, the bandits again set out dragging the Father with them.
"The present whereabouts of the missionary are not know. Rumours have reached here, stating that Father Froewis had been subjected to torture, which he had been un- able to sustain, and soon passed However no definite news have reached this centre."

A WEEK'S PAPERS

“OVERLAND CHINA MAIL ”
ILLUSTRATED.
CHINA NEWS, LOCAL NEWS AND ALL THE NEWS
SEND IT HOME!
Much of interest to residents, to those on leave or who have gone away, and to those connected by ties of friendship or business with Hong Kong will be found in this week's "Overland China Mail," the only illustrated weekly summary of "local" and "China", news published in the Colony.
The current issue of the "Overland" tells what is being. done in the various camps in China. The unusually large number of cases at the Criminal Sessions is covered in a non routine manner, the reports being written to convey the pathos and the humour of the Courts. Naval arrivals and Service occurrences are noted, as are the departure of leading residents, the visit of Miss Maude Royden (the famous preacher on her world tour), and the presence of a shark in the harbour. Special articles and features are included as is always the case.
Following the signing of the Nanking Agreement, the British "Shaforce detachment has been withdrawn from Nanking as another friendly gesture--and the British Consul General has gone back there. Such events are bound to be given considerable prominence in the Home papers. In order to let people know what is happening, send them a copy of the "Overland" and thereby save the laborious job of writing a long letter.
