Elephantiasis in London.

A women, whose death wAS investigated at Southwark r5 cently, was slated by Dr. Hark. lote to be suffering from elephan- tiasis, a disease rarely met with in England, bat prevalent in India and the East, says. Home paper. How the woman, who had never been out of England, could bave contracted the disease(which played no part in her death) was a mystery unless it had been im ported in skins which came into the district. The doctor ex plained that the disease entered the

stomach, developing in the form of

worm. The male worm died, but the female worm survived and even- taelly bored through the walls of the stomach and got into the blood, fading its way generally into the leg, which seeumed tha appearance of an elephant's foot. It was not a disease which killed people.

The Chengshlatun Affair, Peking, Jan.. 22.--This after- "noon an exchange of notes took place between the Japanese Lega- tion and the Waichisopu in rels- tion to Chengohistan. The Chin- ese concede the following points: apology by the Military Gov ernor at Mokden and by the Divisional Commander,

pua- ishment of the officers directly in command of the troops which | fought with the Japansee, and the posting of an order throughout. Manchuria warning the inhabit.. ants against improper bahaviour towards Japanese, The Japanese, on the other hand, fix the date of the withdrawal of troops from Chengohistan. The situation sp- parently is that while the Chinese make no concession in regard to police, the Japanese intend to maintain those police stations al- ready existing and to EnorMANI" them se required.--N, C.
