musical Importance of Boston and the number of
highly trained organists in and around the city,
the manufacturers of pipe organs in the Bay State
have been able TO maintain their place in the face

is said to be altogether in the direction of the higher
grade of instruments, which made with
electric action operated either by storage battery
or by small generator connected with the bellows

CHINA's OPIUM BUREAU.

Vice-Consul General A. w. Pontius, of New
chwang tells of the new Kuan Kao Chi, or
official opium bureau This institution has the
support of the officials, and 1000 shares at S1OO
EACH $50 paid up are issued for local subscrip-.
ton. The purpose of the bureau is to seize all
the opium in NewChWang upon payment of the
proper valuation. thus obtaining sole possession
of the drug at the outset The bureau is then to
dispose of the drug to those addicted to its use,
whose names to be written a list kept
for the purpose. A careful check will be kept Of
all the drug sold, and the vice in this way will
be Curtailed to great extent. 1t is intended
that only very small quantities of the drug will
be sold at time, and person will be allowed
to show an increase in the amount of the drug
used. On the contrary decrease must be
shown

such matter before the merchants, the taotat

merchants that successful commercial adVan-

between the foreign and Chinese merchants and
ne stated that the Chinese merchants were al
ways ready to work hand in hand with the
foreign merchants in accomplishing the ad-
Vancement of the commercial interests Of the

denced itself throughout the meeting more than
emphasized the friendly regard which existed
