THE DEATH OF MRS. KRUGER.
[VIA SEATTLE, MAIL]
LONDON, July atst "Owing to the Sunday telegraph, hours in Holland," says a drapatch to the Daily Mall from Hilversum, "Mr. Kruger was not informed. of his wife's death until the evening. The newa. was broken to him by Dr. Heymans and Secie.
tary Blocchoten Mr. Kruger, who had just returned from church, burst into tears and asked to be left alone. He exclaimed:
"She was a good wife. We quarreled only and that was six months after, we were married. He prayed for a long time, and is now calmly sleeping, his Bible beside his bed.
osce
The Transvaal and Orange Free State Bags flying above the white villa were draped and half masted. Shortly before the news came a crowd of country girls had been singing a folk- song outside the villa."
LONDON, July 22nd.
All the morning papers publish kindly clitorials 'concerning the death of Mrs. Kruger and express sympathy with Me Kruger. The Times begins thus:
"The English people will feel genuine sym pathy with the aged ex-l'resident in his severe domestic bereavement which has befallen him," This is followed by an eulogy of Mrs. Kruger.
PRETORIA, July 22nd..
Mrs. Kruger's long separation from her husband, combined with the death of her. favourite daughter, Mrs. Smith, last week, had completely broken her spirit.
Mr. Eloff and many other members of the Kruger family were at her beside, when she passed away.
IN BERMUDA:
INTERESTING-9TORT OF THE HOER
PRISONERS.
HAMILTON, Bermuda, 6 july, The proposal to establish here a. camp for the detention of prisoners of war from South Africa suggested to the public mind two possi- ble sources of danger the introduction of bubonic plague and a possible outbreak of dis- ease as tresult of confining a large number of men within a limited area, in a hot climate, in a locality where the sanitary and other ar rangements for the accommodation of the prisoners would necessarily be far from perfert. The Armenian arrived in Grassy Bay on 18 June-one, oath after leaving Cape Town. While the prisoners were awaiting disembark ation scores of boats filled with passengers from the shore were in Great Sound. The prisoners appeared to enjoy being stared at, entered into conversation with the people in the boats, and threw souvenirs to them. These souvenirs consisted of toys and other articles which had been made by the men on the passage, nearly every one of the articles being adorned with Mr. Kruger's portrait.
CAMP LIFE.
་
The camp where the prisoners are confined is on Darrells Island and Burtis Island, in the Great Sound. The former contains 27 acres and the latter nearly eight acres. On these is lands bell-tents have been pitched, each tent being nicely floored with Planking. The men are well satisfied with their quarters, one of them stating that Bermuda is the best place that they have been in since they have been taken prisoners of war,
After their long confinement on board ship the prisoners were delighted to get ashore, and before they had been on the island five minutes scores of them were bathing in the clear, cool, Impid waters of the Sound and shouting and capering.like boys on a holiday.
For a time, no doubt, bathing, fishing and gardening will afford them ample means of re- creation, and in the meantime the, ladies and gentlemen of Bermuda have formed an associa tion, under the patronage of Sir George Barker, to provide recreation for the med.
AN ALARM,
The islands and a certain area of the sur- rounding
warm. Ships 22-
ed under martial
d Medina have been commissioned and detailed to guard the prescribed area, Already several beats caught trespassing within the area have been fired upon and the occupants of one boat were arrested.
An occurrence took place two nights ago which demonstrates the vigilance of the men on duty on board the guard ships. Irs. Brad ley, the proprietress of the Windsor and the lessee of the Isle of Wight in Harbour, gave a party on the island. Late in the evening there was a fine display of fire-works. In one of the Intervals between the discharges of rockets some-coloured fires were lighted, and by a strange coincidence the sequence of colours displayed was such as to lead the officer in charge of the guardships to believe that an alarm signal was being given.
Answering signals were made, immediately afterwards electric light signals began to flash, and within three-quarters of an hour three naval cutters filled with armed men, with Maxim guns and ammunition, arrived at the Isle of Wight, and the warrant officer in charge waited upon Mrs. Bradley to inquire the cause of the alarm. The contretemps occasioned much amusement.-Reuter.
NAVAL ENGINEERS.
DEPUTATION ON THEIR GRIEVANCES TO
THE FIRST LORD.
On the 16th July, anys the Morning Leader, the Earl of Selborne received an influential deputation of Members of Parliament, and others interested in the efficiency of engineer officers of the Fleet
Among those present were Mr. C. H. Wilson, M.P., Mr John Burns, M.P. Mr. William Allan, M.P., Bir J, R. Colomb, M.P., Sir E. Durning Lawrence, M.P., Mr. Lonsdale, M.P. Mr. Platt-Higgins, M.P. Col. Donny, M.P. Sir-W. Hart Dyke, M.P, Sir J. Willox, M.P. And others.
Sir F. Flannery, M.P, in introducing the de putation, said they desired to point out certain improvements which were necessary in the condition of naval engineers. It was common knowledge that the number of engineer officers was too small, and upon that the whole grava men of the question turned. He urged that engineers should be granted the rank and executive control and the honorable position as officers which their service and atility de "manded. FAMI
SNURA The discipline of the engine-room and the stokehole might be enormously improved, for while there was entire loyalty among engineers, there was an amount of quiet discontent at the present condition of things, which reflected unfavorably upon recruiting.
- Mr. William Allan, M.P., said they were face
to face with the fact that their ships were under engineered and under-stokered
Lord Selborne, in reply, remarked that every thing that had been said would be carefully noted and considered. He could not allow the suggestion to pass unnoticed that the engineer. ing branch of the navy did not fulâl its import. ant functions, nor could he admit that there. was anything wrong with the discipline in the engine room or stokeroom.
