A singular coincidence bas come to light. One of the stokers, writing to his mother at Bristol, before the vessel started on her first and last trip, made use of this expression. "We are chancing our lives in a new boat; I should not be surprised if we smash up." Although judgment is suspended till after the official inquiry, there is a consensus of opinion that in future construction, no vessel must entirely sacrifice strength to speed. It was admittedly doubtful if either the Viper or the Cobra could live on a rough sea, owing to the strain after pace, leaving certain weaknesses amidships, and now that the danger has been demon strated, it must be avoided even at the price

of a knot or so an hour.

THE CONDITION OF JOHANNESBERĠ was described as "deplomble," and getting continually worse. The greatest discontent exists among the civil population all over the annexed Colonies at the selection of Boers and rebels for those subordinate posts which it was naturally supposed would go to loyalists, or at least men for whom respect was felt. The senior officials, nearly all thosen by Milner, were the very best available, and included many Boers of good character, who though they may have fought against us in the past,
