MR. RITCHIE ON PEACE

CONDITIONS.

The Right Honourable C. T. Ritchie speaking at Croydon, said that Lord Salisbury's pronouncement that no shred of independence would be left to the Boers had been misunderstood. We were unable to again offer the Boers the terms for peace already rejected by them, but if their General' would accept our promise to give them a representative government at some fature time, this would form the basis for the conclusion of peace.

Cowie, a director of the British North Borneo Company, speaking at the Borneo dinner, said that he was more hope- Fr308eful than ever of success in developing the Company's property. Mr. R. B.

FIRE IN QUEEN'S ROAD.

What might have been a very serious fire occurred at 189 Queen's Road. on Saturday. afternoon. The brigade was quickly on the spot and found the ground floor fully alight and the flames rapidly spreading to the first floor. The hose was laid on and in a short time the fire was got under and the amount of damage done could be reckoned. The ground floor was entirely gutted and what little remained of the stock was spoiled by water. On the first floor matters were not quitesso bad, but serious loss had been sustained, approximately to the amount of $1,500. The cause of the conflagra tion is suppose to have been the ignition of the beams of the house, by a stove used in the dry. ing of medicines.
