While the past year has been a hard

sion and the Church of Christ has
suffered severe losses by removal and
death, yet advancement has been
made in every department of the
work. The following is brief sum-
mary of the report read: ct is with
profound gratitude to Almighty God,
the giver of every good and perfect
gift, and heartfelt thanks to my
brothers and sisters in Christ, with

 to l,e Published

PENANG, April 25.-whenevcr the ruler of Siam, King Somdetch Phra ParamiEdr- Mana Chulalongkorn. has travelled, either in his own kingdom or anywhere else in Asia and in Europe, he has jotted down his impressions of places and people and kept diaries of everyday happenings. The "iottings took the form of the regulation dairy entries, verse and even letters.
 For the most part the letters were addressed 10 the Princess Nibha Nab hadol. He described his doings in for eign places, the sights he saw and the amuscmcnts he participated in, the pco- pie he met and how the habits. customs and manners of the different people impressed him. The letters, while be ing welcome for the insight they gave to the ways of others. were especially valuable 10 the monarch $ Siamese friends. who read them for the style in which they were written. And now it has been decided to have these letters published together with the king s other writings. to serve as patterns for native seribcs.
 The letters altogether number forty three, and will be carefully edited by Prince Damrong, one of the most cul- tured and able members of the king council, whom the king himself has chosen for that task.

50,OOO EASEMENTS IN NEW YORK MUST BE VACATED
 UNDER A COURT RULING

NEW YORK, April 25.-If a decision of the appellate division handed down yesterday is sustained by the higher courts, it is estimated that fully 50,000 basement apartments in flats, tenements and the finest apartment houses, now used by janitors for living rooms, will have 10 be vacated.
 The law says that ceilings of base mcnt rooms used for living purposes must be at least nine feet from the floor and four and one-half feet from the level of the street. Builders have con strued the four and one-half feet to apply to the height of the ceiling above the level of the court or well in many buildings.
 The appellate division says the Ian guage is plain and it means the street level. Thousands of janitors now housed n these unsanitary places will have to move. The owners will have to find room for them in some other part of the houses than whore they now are.
 The case was brought before the ap- pellatc division by the tenement house commissioner. There S3,000 violations on file before the commission. and |; great part of them are for basement rooms.
