A WHOLE WEEK'S NEWSPAPERS IN ONE.

More than usual interest was centred on the Epsom Derby by the fact that two local residents succeeded in drawing horses in both the Calcutta and Irish Sweeps.

Miss Clair Couper Munro, a teacher at the Central British School, Kowloon,. drew Portofino in the Calcutia Sweep and shares half of the ticket with Mrs. R. A. Rodgers of 513, The Peak.

An interesting interview with Miss Munro is repro- duced in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

*

In the Irish Sweep, the Aga Khan's horse, Dastur, was drawn by the "Sau Sang" Syndicate whose address is given as Handelsbank. This is, of course, the Nederlandsch Indische Handelsbank N.V.

As the result of inquiry made at the Bank it turned out that there was no syndicate and that the holder of the ticket was an individual who was referred to as Mr. Z and his Identity was closely guarded.

The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL. contains an account of the endeavour made to trace the lucky ticket holder.

Sentences of death were passed by the Puisne Judge (Mr. Justice J. R. Wood) at the Assizes, on May 30, on Cheung Taze-san and Cheung Sau-fu, two of three men who were found guilty, on May 14, of murder of a young student named Tsang Tal-kai, on February 18.

The two men's fate was sealed at the Full Court, pre- sided over by the Chief Justice (Sir Joseph H. Kemp, KC.), when after hearing argument by Mr. Somerset Fitzroy that there was not sufficient evidence to go to the Jury, the Court decided that the convictions must stand. The third man, Cheung Man, was sentenced to death on May 14, immediately after the Jury had returned their verdict.

A full report of the scene at the sentencing of the re- maining two men is carried in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

A distressing life-boat accident occurred in Kowloon Bay on the night of May 27. The boat, which contained 30 coolies, had got alongside the s.a. Ben Lomond, which is being scrapped in the Bay, when the accident occurred.

The coolies scrambled to reach the gangway of the ship and this caused the boat to capsize, throwing all 30 men Into the water. Three were drowned.

The story of the accident and the subsequent finding of the three bodles is contained in the OVERLAND. CHÏNA MAIL.

On May 30 the Chief Justice gave judgment in the long drawn out family dispute which was heard during the month of March. In this case three brothers sued a fourth brother asking for a declaration that they were partners in certain businesses of which the defendant claimed that he was the sole proprietor.

Judgment was given to the defendant with no relief for the three plainties.

The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL gives the full text of His Lordship's Judgment.

*

Another family dispute action opened before the Chief Justice on May 30. In this case three members of the family- of a Chinese merchant who died nearly 11 years ago are at loggerheads over his local estate. His widow is plaintifi and his two sons defendants.

Both sides have propounded different documents which they claim to be the true last will and testament of the deceased.

The Hon. Dr. B. W. Tr'o gave expert evidence on Chinese law and usages in connection with this case, a report of which is published in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.

There is no phase of the life of the Colony or of China. that does not receive attention to the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL — the weekly paper that YOU MUST ORDER NOW.
