THERE are several points of interest to re- sidente in Chian in the last annual report of Sir F. A.

usual honours.

Among the general damage done by the typhoon the China and Japan Telephone Co.'s property suffered very heavily, practically all the wires being wrecked. As will be seen from a notice elsewhere, though efforts are being made to restore them, commencing with the conical part of the town, the complete restora- tion is expected to take several weeks.

Shanghai papers report an impressive com- memorative ceremony on Monday, the 5th inut, at St. Joseph's Church, French Concession, in honour of all Roman Catholics, foreign and native, who were victims of the Boxers. A large force. of French infantry, artillery, and marines was present, and Germany was also represented by traps. The jeerries lasted a little over one boar.
