Mr. Patnam Wealo's new book is hardly so interesting as his "Mauchu and Muscovite," It is burdened by a belated account of the early months of the Russo-Japanese' war, is some- what discursive, and would, as the New York Sun suggests, be improved by elimination and condensation. The semijocular tone adopted detracts from its authoritativeness, albeit mak- ing it easy reading. But it has striking merits, and well deserves, the encomiums bestowed on it by the critice, who seem quite generally of the Chicago Record-Herald's opinion that Mr- Weale has written the best analysis of the situation in the Far East that we have had since
China began to see the new light." The work should, indeed, meet a hearty welcome from he public, if only because of the information it affords regarding a question now agitating the entire Western World--the question of the effect upon Chipa of the triumph of Japan over Russia,
One consequence, as the news despatches have of late made painfully evident, has been the recrudescence of an unmistakable anti- foreign sentiment among the Chinese: This Mr. Weale has anticipated, just as he anticipat- Led in "Manchu and Muscovite" some of the

A sensational accident occurred at Kuala Lumpur on the 11th May at about 4 o'clock. Mr. H. W. Davidson, of the firm of Messrs.
