An eloquent appeal to the public for funds wherewith to build a new Nethersole Hospital was made at the annual meeting of the Alice Memorial and Affiliated Hospitals. Dr. S. W. T'so, the Chairman, supported by Dr. R. H. Kotewall, expounded the new scheme, and stressed the necessity of raising $200,000 to see it through, adding that $50,000 was already in hand for the purpose. The OVERLAND CHINA” MAIL gives a complete report of the proceedings,

Judgment was handed down by the Full Court in the case in which the Shanghai creditors of the Russo-Asiatic Bank appealed against a decision in the Lower Court, The case was described as being “unique,” but the Court upheld the previous judgment with tmanimity. A full report of the judgment handed down appears in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

China's tribulations still continue. The Nanking Party claim the re-capture of Tsinan, in Shantung, and a sensational report, afterwards discredited, gained currency that Chang Hsueh-liang, the Manchurian War Lord, had been assassinated at Peitalho. It seems fairly definite that there was a serious mutiny at this place, but Manchuria still remains neutral. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL In- cluded all relevant dispatches on the situation.

Local sport receives especial prominence in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL, a feature of this issue being a specially-written account of the opening game. of the base- ball season between South China and the Japanese.
