In a case in which a European Police officer summoned the chauffeur of a private car for obstruction, the Magistrate, after hearing the evidence, characterised the officer's evidence as "gross lying," and added that he was fortunate not to be indicted for perjury. A full report appears in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL,
As a result of a decision at a meeting of the Sanitary Board, the Medical Officer of Health reverts to las position as a member of the Board, in place of the Director of Medical and Sanitary Services. At the same meeting, it was decided that rat virus was not of practical use in a tropical country, and it was recommended that in practice domestic cats were much more effective in keeping down the menace. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL reports the salient features of the discussion.

The Colony has experienced almost torrential rains during the week, a total of over 17 inches having fallen within five days. The reservoirs are all overflowing, a state of affairg which has not been known for several years. Details and figures are included in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
A case of considerable intérest to the general public, which is reported in the OVERLAND CHINĂ MAIL, Is one in which the agent of a Chinese newspaper published in Hong Kong was fined for allowing papers to be sold which con- lained obscene advertisements. It was indicated that the Police were taking steps to stop the practice in the case of several offending Hong Kong Chinese newspapers.

Mui tsai cases continue to come before the Magistrates, and in fining a woman $100 for an exceptionally cruel assault, His Worship stated that "this excessive punishment of mul tsals must stop." The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL carries a full story.
