Miscellaneous articles on the same page:
Francis Polard, extra steward on the Trojan, was lately sentenced at Port Elizabeth to a month’s imprisonment, for mutinous conduct on the high seas, and threatening to shoot the chief steward. The incident occurred whilst the liner was going round from Cape Town.
The owners of the British Peer have received the following telegram from Cape Town:--British Peer is a total wreck, and has broken up. Following of crew saved: Olsen, Swensen, Joseph Adderson, Schneider; remainder all lost. Very little hope of salvage, as boats cannot approach the wreck.
The first naval funeral held at Port Elizabeth during the present decade took place there recently. A middle-aged stoker of H.M.S. Philomel, named Cowd, died from an affection of the heart whilst the cruiser was in port, and the remains were interred at the South End Cemetery. The procession from the jetty was imposing.
The Syren states that a suggestion has been laid before the British and French authorities for a joint survey of all the coast from just this side of Ushant to within a few miles of Gibraltar. No doubt if the survey were undertaken, both the Spanish and Portuguese authorities would also have to be notified, but it is scarcely likely that they would raise any serious objection. The suggestion was made originally as a consequence of the disaster to the Drummond Castle.
The French community in Johannesburg are arranging a “battle of flowers” to be held there shortly
A Johannesburg wire, dated November 18, states: The Dynamite Relief Committee has arranged to call a meeting of subscribers next week to decide upon the distribution of the surplus sum. Thirty thousand pounds remain, but the Government, Netherlands, and Dynamite Companies, who are compensating sufferers will leave £20,000 for allocation among public institutions.
Legal procedure in Krugersdorp is distinctly funny. Take the Sentinel case as an example (says that paper). First they issue a warrant for the arrest of the editor and send two mounted zarps to hunt for him in a rainstorm at Mulder’s Drift, while he is inquiring for them and smoking cigars in the police station. Next they bring him up in the wrong court and have to order a fresh shuffle and deal of the cards: thirdly they interdict someone else in mistake for him; fourthly, they blunder across the right man to interdict but do not stop the issue of the paper, and finally they have to adjourn the game to get a new dealer, as the Public Prosecutor does not feel up to taking a hand.
