Miscellaneous articles on the same page:
The Union Company’s officers at Durban lately entered into new and handsome central premises named the Union Building.
An “electric bar eroder,” the invention of a local electrician, was recently tried with some success on the Durban bar.
A seaman named Daniel Bailey, belonging to the Scottish Moors, in Algoa Bay, recently fell from the rigging and had both legs seriously injured.
The steamers Umtali, from Port Natal, and Chipchase, from the Tyne, collided off Gravesend on Monday. The former had one plate indented on the starboard side abaft the main rigging. The latter was uninjured.
The Belgian steamer Bruxelles, from Natal for Buenos Ayres, in ballast, has been towed into East London by the steamer Clan Campbell, with loss of propeller, and tail end of shaft broken, and will enter the harbour for repairs.
We are informed by the Union-Clan Line that their next steamers from New York will be as follows:--Eiffel Tower, 3187 tons, about November 20, and Rose Castle, 2816 tons, about November 30, for Cape Town, Port Elizabeth (Algoa Bay), East London, Port Natal, and Delagoa Bay, as inducement offers.
An excellent model of the Gascon, the latest addition to the intermediate fleet of the Union Steam Ship Company, is at present on view at the latter’s offices in Bishopsgate Street, and serves as a striking illustration of the great advance made in the style and size of the more modern boats employed on this branch of the South African service.
The official and formal celebration of Dingaan Day (December 16) in the Transvaal will not take placed this year “in consequence of the rinderpest requirements.”
A correspondent to the Cape Times asks if Rhodesia is a British Colony, for he points out that during the late recruiting for police in that country, Danes Germans, Swedes, &c., were given preference to young Englishmen, and Colonials fit in every respect for the work required, and some of the foreigners in question could barely speak English. When, he concludes, there is a dearth of British blood and muscle for such duties, it will be time to call in alien assistance; but at present, to say the least, it is unnecessary.
The Rev. J. J. McClure of Duncane, recently left Belfast for South Africa, having accepted a call to the Gardens Church, Cape Town. He is the eldest son of the Rev. Samuel McClure, Presbyterian Pastor at Ashgrove, Londonderry, and nephew of the late Professor Smyth, for some time M.P. for the County of Londonderry. He studied at the Magee College, and afterwards at Edinburgh, and was ordained at the Church of Duncane by the Presbytery of Templepatrick in 1883. He was a prominent member of the General Assembly’s Committees, and his departure is much regretted in the north of Ireland.
Barney’s house in Park Lane is going ahead fast. I gave some particulars the other day about the cerulean ceiling of the drawing-room, in the centre of which the Sun, made of real Rand gold, blazes out by the aid of cunningly-set electric lights. For some days a series of colossal statues have been surmounting the balustrades of the bay to the front of the house, and in their cotton envelopes they have been puzzling the passers-by. Some have irreverently callem them “Johnnies.” Others again said they were statues of President Kruger and his satellites. Not that they have been undraped they appear to be typical of all the virtues in man and woman, Patience being a very prominent figure.
A statement has been going round the Press that Mr. Selous got a thousand pounds down for his recent work on Rhodesia, with a promise of more if the book was a success. I am authorized to state that the report has no truth in it.
Talking of Rhodesian books, there is a rumour that Sir John Willoughby proposes to sue Major Leonard, the author of the book, “How we Made Rhodesia,” for damages for some remarks he made about him in the book. I hope the statement is not true. Sir John should be above taking notice of what, after all, is mere chaff. At any rate, the author has gone to a Consular appointment on the West Coast of Africa.
Things are going very hard with “Dr. Jim,” are they not? Not only has he had to go through the operation over which so much fuss is being made, but he has had to suffer expressions of sympathy from Mr. Kruger and Mr. Labouchere. Poor Jameson!
