PaiOK : One Penny

Killed by a Dead Man.

Mr A G Hales telis a weird etory aboot Sptoi) Kop. He says a sergeant was found by the Boers lying at fall length shot through the brain, yet even m death the man looked like some fighting machine gone out of order. His rife was prened against his shoulder, his left hand grasped the barrel on the under side, the forefingers of the right hand pressed the trigger lightly, the Farrel rested out upon a rock, and his death'dalled eye still glared along the s:ghtß, for dissolution had ccrae tohim just aaha bent his head to fire afc those who ehot him, and now hts hands had stiffened m the nnhendable stiffness of eternal sleep. A Boer soldier saw the sergeant as hopay, end with hands grasped the rite by the barrel and tried bo jsirk Id from the dead man's grip, but as he pulled ha brought the rifle m a line with his own breabt. and one unyielding finger on the trigger did the rest, the lifle spoke from the dead man's hand, and the ballet passing through the Boer's heart laid him beside the B ifcon. Sounds like a journal* istio lie, does ie no:* Read it m a novel! and yon wonld laugh, woald you not, Bat It Is the eternal truth all the ftame (continues Mr Hales), for the comrade of the Boer who died that day, killed by a lead man, told me the tale himse-f, and he was one of those who phnted the dead Dutchman on the slope of Splon Kop,

Sir Alfred Milner On Dutch Sedition mongers

I Specking m November fcthatClars - | raonr, C»pe Colony, at » meeting of the Guild of loyal Women, Sir Alfred Mil nrr us id be would hold his peace regard ing the Juhannesburg refugees until he had come to an understanding with other people, and could make a plain statement. There was too much chop ping about m the matter. Proceeding he eaid the manufacture of sedition wa« proceeding as merrily «s before, and it was going to cause a lot of havoc: Ifc was their part to do what Ihoy could to quench the flame. He knew that the efforts to m»ke the voice of reason pro vail entailed great sacrifices upon the loyalists m the scattered districts* There most be no compromise with ecdi t;or mongers There had beei#too much toying with treason m the past. The future loyalty of the country was mainly a question of education, and they must teach temperately, »cd leave the lOono poly of hystews to the ether Bide. HSoutb. Africa today was passing through a grave crisis. To the coffering of rega* lar war had succeeded a purposless resist anco, kept tip by deceit, aid leading to nothing bat destruction ; but it would be a mfstsfcc to take too despondent* view of the situation. Kew methods were being devised, and would succeed.

The Queen's Wish

The Queen's relations with Lord Salis 1 bury arc said to have been strained by a personal matter. Her Majesty is very gore, sajs To*day, that the Duke of Con* naught was not appointed Commander m Chief m succession to Lord Wolseley* She thought it might have been done for her, and looked to see before she died the reinstatement of a Koyalty at the headship of the Army. There is little that the British people would not accord to a Soverign so beloved, and yet this is quo thing on which it would assuredly have stood out. It may be that no Ccnv mander m Chief will avail much against the dificulties of admimistra tive form, • bat where Lord Roberts fails could the Duke of Onanaugbl possibly succeed I The quest. Mi will not hear discussiou. This i« hot tht time to replace a Boyal Prince at the head of the Army. Amiable well meaDinf. pains t eking, folly informed m minor details, the Dnke of Oonnaught ia no more. Wbat wwaai is something like genie?, a vigorous understanding, backed np by profound practical knowledge, and we shall go nearer to finding them m Lord Roberta than m any other soldier of the day,
