THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 1900.
MRS. CRONJE AND DE, KUTIM,”A
Mr. Bartram M. Denison, midshipman on H.M.S. Dors, who was in charge of the cutler in which Cronje and his family landed il St. Helena, in a private letter mentions an amusing anecdote of Cronje's voyage from the Cape. Our doctor at present is Dr. Jameson. Mrs. Cronje was suffer ng from sca-sickness. The captain asked her husband if he would like a doctor, Cronje said, Yes; but who is the doctor? 'Oh, you can have the ship's doctor' What is his name?' 'Doctor Jameson., 'Oh, 0, thank you; it doesn't matter." Cronje was apparently determined not to have anything to do with a man of that name if he could help it.
DUKE OF CONNAUGHT AND
INDIA.
It is quite on the cards, says the Indian Mirror that the Duke of Connaught may succeed the late Sir William Lockhart as Commander-in-Chief in India. The choice, if mnd, will be beyond all praise. The Queen's son is a keen soldir has been Commander-in- Chief in Bombay, sympathises with the military aspirations of our countrysner, and in these days of the ventilation of the idea of Imper al Federation. his return to lalia would be in. valuable. if we cannot have a Queen's son.as Viceroy let us have him at least as our Cuinmander-in-Chief. That will add ten-fold to the country's loyalty, and affection to the Throne.
THE BOERS EXPLAIN!
Mr. Wessels has said, in America, that the reported abuse of the white dag exists largely in the minds of the English correspondents. He said that in a case acar Kimberley, where the Boers were accused of firing after they had hoisted the white flag, the white jacket of a clergyman, who suddenly rushed to the front, was mistaken by the Braish for a flag. The Free State flag, he added, when faded, was often mistaken for a white one!

PRETORIA REJOICINGS. Taiping was to celebrate the occupation of Pretoria on the 6th, with a procession of vehicles, sports, and a torch light procession.
The Pretoria rejoicings at Penang took the form of a Volunteer night parade, a bonfire, illumination at the Chinese Cycling Club, and procession of Chinese Tamils, and other nation- alities.
in Japan. In other respects, too, the situation created will be serious for Japan. The opera- tion of the United States tariff will render it difficult and costly, for the Japanese now in Hawa to obtain supplies from Japan, as they have hitherto been in the habit of doing, and The consting trade restrictions will make it impossible for a Japanese vessel to call at Hawaй en route for America.
GREAT FIRE AT DUNDEE.
GOOD FOR COCOA PLANTERS.
Some time back Messrs. James Keiller and Sons (Limited), of Dundee, went into the cocoa
for them, as the great establishment in Dundee for the manufacture of marmalade and other preserves belonging to them was almost totally destroyed by fire on May 10th. The outbreak was occasioned by the bursting of a refrigerator in the chocolate preparing department. The fire raged for three hours, and before it was got under the premises were gutted. The build. ings, stock, and machinery are insured for 4118,0 0.

"There were grand dhings at Kuala Lumpur trade, and this has been a disastrous departure Edwards, L. on Pretoria Day, which was celebrated there on the 7th inst. The town was decorated. The day's proceedings started with a review of the Malty States Guides. A thanksgiving service followed. Then came a rikisha parade amid cracker firing and the strains of a Tamil kind. At noon, a royal salute of jot guns wi fired, the last gun fired being followed by a salvo of thunder. At 4 o'clock, the Amping Chinese Volunteer Corps, specially enrolled | for the occasion, drilled on the Plain, led by Colonel Chow Kit. After drill, a party of Malay boys went through a war song, speétaters were treated to a Tami dance. A carriage parade followed, the vehicles being gaily decorated. At night, the town was in a Blaze of light from illuminations. At 10.30 a grand loafire delighted the assembled throng Rud burned furiously for two hours. It went out amid cheers and singing, intermixed with yells from the Tamil section of the crowd. Thus ended a glorious day.
A LOVAL CHINESE CLUB.

There were present Hon. Dr. Lim Boon Keng, Mr. Lee Choon Gran, Mr. Wee Thiam Tew and others, all wearing a gay Empire colored rosette in honour of the decision.
Among the toasts proposed was that of the "Queen" and "Lord Roberts" by Dr Lim Boon Keng, win made some excellent aud appropriate remarks in Malay. The festivities were prolonged until a late hour.

In a letter to the editor of the Morning Post, Mr. Herbert Maxwell, writing from Newton Stewan, replies to certain criticismus passed upon a previous letter of his in which he (Mr. Maxwell) had referred to the alleged Germanic descent of the men of Lothian and the Borders. Before they almove mentioned can be finally discarded, Mr. Maxwell writes, it is necessary to get rid of a piece of evidence which is sadly in the way of any new one-namely, that of place-names. If the Norsemen had held Lothian and left their descendants there and on the Scottish side of the Border, as they hav in Caithness, infallibly we should be using at this day names with the characteristic Se ndinavian suffixes, by, thorpe, thwaite, Loster, &c., which remain in Lincolnshire, Yorkshire, Waitmore land, Caithness, Man, and other districts known A distinguished old Singaporean writes by to have been long under Norse or Danish the mail to an old resident as follows re Keppel dominion.
