QUICK-MALOI !
"It is the general opinion that the British will arrive at Pretoria as fast as they can march."-
Renter's Telegram.
That's a fact-We're goin' to get there (Play a
quick-step, please--The Band) For campaignin's letter readin' than you'll find
the thing on kasut
And the veldt's a trifle dusty an' the job's a
trific hot,
Sn you bet we're goin' to get there just as fast
as we can trot.
Through the Iners an' through the rivers, through the storm an' through the flood, Through the path we must, if need be, drench
wah Boer an' British blood.
Do you think we're goin' to loiter for the plea-
sures of the road,
For the joys an' for the comforts that the little
show's bestowed ?
You may trust we're in a hurry for to get it off
our chest: !
For the day we'll pile our arms autʼave a decent
'night of rest,
Whether obstacles should vanish or we have to
clear a way.

RETIREMENT OF MR. SKEAT.
(Malay Mail.)
We regret to hear that Mr. W. W. Skeat, Civil Servant, explorer, Malay scholar and author, has been obliged to sever his connection with the Federated Malay States. Dr. Manson of the Colonial Office has declared him to be for further permanently incapacitated service in the, F. M.S. By the retirement of Mr. Skeat the service looses a zealous and gilted officer who has laboured long and lovingly in the interests of the State, and the Malays lose a real and sympathetic friend. In
State where so many officials are devoted to their work, Mr. Skeat's name has always been well to the fore as a man who was wrapped up in the interests of the district he happened to be administering for the time being, and in each district he always left some particular mark of his energetic personality. The Recreation Club in Kuala Lumpur, the English School in Klang and the Hospital at Sepang all owe their inception and start to his efforts. The three chief characteristics of the man were his enthusiasm for the welfare of the country and its people, his modesty, and his kindliness of disposition.
BLOWING UP RAND MINES,
WHY KRUGER GAVE WAY,
News from Pretoria, via Delagoa Bay, re- ports that President Kruger was very reluciant to cancel the preparations made by Mr. Reitz, the Transvaal State Secretary, to blow up the Johannesburg mines with dynamite. It is now officially declared-although 13 men were arrested by the Austrian chief of the Rand mining palice in the act of putting dynamite in the machinery of mines by orders of the State Mining Engineer-that Keitz's threats were merely intended for a luft, It is, how- ever, well known in Pretoria that the abandon- alment of the design is due to General Louis Totha, Juubert's successor as commandant- now general. General Botha declared that he would resign the command of the Boer armies-as- sumed in accordance with Joubert's dying wish if Kruger carried out his barbarous design.
We shall travel at the double and we will not
waste a day.

LEGAL SCRAPS.
On the arraignment of Ann. Turner a phys cian's widow, who was indicted for being ac cessory before the fact to the murder of Sir Thomas Overbury, the prisoner kept her hat on. Sir Edward Coke observing this, bade hertake it off saying that "a woman might be covered in church, but not when arraigned in a court of justice." The prisoner said she thought singular that she might have her head covered in the house of God, and not in the judicature of man. Sir Edward replied that from fiod no secrets were hid, but that it was not so from the investigation of truth, and especially when the lives of our fullow creatures are in jeopardy on the charge of having deprived another there of the Court should see all obstacles removed, and because the contenance is often an index to the mind, all covering should be removed from the face. Coke then ordered her hat to be pulled off and she covered her head with her handkerchief.

The following appears in the Times :- The chief feature of Lord Roberts march try the north was the anguificent sweep of his flanking operations, which completely con founded the enemy, who otherwise were pre- pared to make a sand at Kroonstad, their frontal position being virtually impregnable; but the Boers felt hopeless again such over whichning olds, with Generals Tucker and land, whose intellects were weak; therefore, in Hamilton on the right General French's Cavalry and General Hatton's Monanted lafantry far 10 the left, absolutely enveloping the position.

THE CHANNEL FLEET.
No one seeins quite to know what is the inmediate destination of the Channel Fleet, says the Morning Pest. According to precedent. its course has been oficially mapped out for it. Berehaven, Arosa Bay, Gibraltar, are to be its successive ports of visit, but there seems very good reason to believe that this programuir is more officious than oficial, and that the lect will stay for some time in Irish waters. Have we not reached a point, however, when the reconstitution of the Channel Fleci should be seriously taken in hand? One cruiser has been detached and then another, until the composition of the squarkon has beconic,the laughing stock of naval men throughnut the world. Imagine alect of eight battleships, and one solitary third class cruiser to act as its eyes and ears. This cruisermust necessarily be constantly demached on necessary duties, mails, and what not. But even if she were always with the fleet, what good would she do? How far is a Reel so composed ready for immediate active service, which every properly constituted sea-going fleet is supposed to be? Or what opportunities of inculcating on his officers the are afforded a zealous admiral who has only study of the little known science of scouting one cruiser? It is bad for the admiral, and bad for the captains and junior officers, for scouting is a thing in which training is essentially necessary. It is obvious that the Channel Fleet is terribly in need of cruisers, and in connec ton with this matter it is worthy of record that at the last manoeuvres Sir Darry Rawson had 27 Cruisers under his command and then wanted
more.
THE FRENCH FLEET.
An important change in the disposition of The the French fleet has just taken place. Gaulois and Charlemagne, battleships, have been detached from the Northern Squadron and sent round to Toulon. Their place in the Northern Squadron is taken by the Carnot and Musstun, so that there is no alteration in the numerical strength of the squadron. The object is to concentrate the newest and most powerful ships in the Mediterranean. The St. Louis will very shortly follow the Gaulois to that sen, when the Brennts will be sent north. The Breauns, Carnot, and Mussina, were, before the change, the slowest of the six battle- ships in the Mediterranean; the Bremus in

Times correspondent says
The endurance displayed by all ranks was amazing, and the Lilish residents were wild with enthusiasm when the Scots Guards played the National Anthem in the public square. The Landdrost sent his deputy, but Lord Roberts declined to accept the surrender from any one but the head official, and the former was forced to officiate in person. The Burg. hers, who were in hiding when the entry com. menced, soon surrendered their arms.
Reuter, wiring from Kroonstad on the 14th May says: "It is reported that the whole of the Boer forces are concentrating on the Vaal River, and are leaving the Biggarsberg and the Southern and Western Borders. The health of the British troops and horses is excel. lent and food and water are plentiful." THE "SUNDAY" OF LONGITUDE.
Sir Richard Webster was highly entertaining after dinner at the annual festivity of the Leeds Law Students' Society. He tells us that the experience of Lord Russell and himself at International arbitrations convinced them that our system of a divided profession is the best, and that an advocate like the American who has acted as solicitor and got up the details, gives to them too much attention when acting asadvocate. This in valuable testimony is worth a weight of inexperienced opinion. In the same address the Attorney-General gave practi- tioners some excellent and sound advice. He said "Don't be afraid of judges" "don't be rudimentary and elementary information." Fur- ther he commended highly the exercise of fact, but dwelt principally on the importance of "con- centration." "He was satisfied," he said, "that one of the great failings on the part of those who had been engaged in getting up cases bad been the neglect to concentrate the mind on the particular question raised or the particular facts to be laid before the court. The great Sir John Karslake said that three things were The first was fact, the necessary to success, second was tact, and the third was tact. He the Altorney-General) would be inclined to add that for anyone to succeed as a solicitor or
barrister the most important quality, the most important development of talent, was the power of concentration on the thing before the mind." THE GERMAN NAVAL SELVICE,

THE RESERVE FLEET.
The decision to assemble the Reserve Fleet at Portland is satisfactory, though it would have been more satisfactory had the measure been adopted when the war began. It was inexpedient from every point of view to leave the Channel 'without an organised fleet so long as the French Northern Squadron was in commission. The Reserve Fleet at its full strength includes ten battleships, the Alexandru, Benbow, Collingwood, Colossus, Howe, Nile, Rodney, Sans Pareil, Thunderer and Trafalgar, with four cruisers, the Australia, Galatea, Severa and Afelampus. The cruisers are a pour lot so far as speed goes, with the exception of the Melamput. Not one of them can com- pare with the Dupuy de Lome, which figures in the French Northern Squadron,
particular, has never been a very satisfactory vessel, as there was too much tinkering of her when on the stocks, and constant alteration of battleship to be completed with water-tube boilers. The reconstruction of the Courbet has now been accomplished; she is armed with four 13.4 in. guns in her central battery as before, but for the four to.6-in. guns which she used to carry in barbettes have been substituted three 9.4-in. and 5.5-in., guns. All her woud- work has been removed and repliced by sheet
steel.
WHY GERMANY WANTS A
HUGE FLEET. Admiral Tripitz's speech on the German Navy Hill contained nothing that is new or startling, except the suggestion which under- lay every word that sooner or later the German navy would have to measure its strength with England. This, of course, will compel us on our side to take the very fullest precautions. indeed to render the German increase ab:o- solutely nugatory,
