- Interesting Lecture at Helena May Institute.

An interesting lecture entitled Scientific Methods of Detecting Crime" was given by Mr. E. K. Dovey, tiayernment Analyst, st the Helena May Institute yester day afternoon. There was a large audience present, including Hon. Mr. Claud Severn and Mrs. Severn. Mr. Dovey opened his remarks by saying that crime conveyed different ideas.to different people. Indeed, the word had a larger mean- ing than most people attributed to it and might be defined as touching napthing from watering milk to The lecturer wilful murder." remarked that many people with a bala of invested crime romance which did not always ap pear and illustrated his point ly having a photograph thrown on the screen of an unprepossessing muz deter convicted of the murder of several servants.

AMERICA'S INVASION OF CHİNA.

New York, Jan. 8. American capital is aiming at big business by the Invasion of China by an organised concern called the China Enterprises In- corporated which, through two subsidiaries, is about to establish numerous factories and open two thousand kinema theatres in China. The factories will employ Chinese labour, manufacturing silks and textiles and the theatres will endeavour to interpret Western - life, business and government to Chinese.

CHINESE EDUCATION.

London, Jan. 8. The latest contribution to the Chinese education discussion in the former lecturer of Times emanates from Mr, F. M. H. Holman, a

He says the founding of new centres of higher education in China will only lead to disappointment unless such an adequate system has previously

been established.
