AN APOLOGY.
The Management of Kowloon Theatre tender their apologies to those of their patrons who were disappointed last night by the non-appearance of the American Band from S. S. Nacking.
The absence of the band was due to circumstances over which we had no control, and we desire to make this statement in our own justification.
