The representative of the Belgian Government in Nanking has told Dr. C. T. Wang, the Foreign Minister, that the Belgian Minister will leave Peping next week for Nanking to open negotiations re- garding the Sino-Belgian Treaty.

The English Singers,

Mr. A. Strok has arrived in the Colony from Shanghai by the Pre- sident Lincoln in advance of the English Singers, of London, who' will

in Hong Kong on Friday night

the Theatre Royal Mr. Strok reports the astounding suo- cerses of the English Singers in Japan and Shanghai. The Sing- ers, three ladies and three gentle- wen, completely captivated Japan- ese audiences, and in Shanghai succeeded in playing to four packed houses. Their revivals of music of the Elizabethan age has created widespread interest wherever they have appeared. In Japan the Eng lish Singers were described by the Press as the greatest musical am bassadors of England ever to tour there. Confirming Mr. Strok's ac counts a perusal of recent reports in, the Shanghai papers regarding the appearances of the English Singers lead us to expect that Hong Kong is shortly to enjoy one of the most enjoyable feasts of singing ever given in the Colony.
