degree of self-government which the!

BRITISH SOLIDIFICATION FNvIED
Berlin, March 21.-The Kreuz Zeitung
in remarkable DEALING with the Soutl
African war, says: THE war has demon
strated the unanimity of the feeling
among the English. They are all stand
ing together through good and evil repor
and are compelling the admiration of tht
world. 1t has also shown in most amaz
mig way the strength OF the imperialistiC
idea, having done much in welding The
colonies into a veritable empire

that England never fought more gallant

that Cecil Rhodes, after his arrival in
London, will decide the fate of the Beers

THE BIRTHS III HOSPITAL TRAINS
New York, March 21.-A dispatch to
the World from Pietermaritzburg says:
A temporary bridge across the Tugela
at Colenso is now open for traffic, and
there is at least a direct railway serv-
ice between Durham and EIandslaagte
The first train to cross the bridge was
the Princess Christians hospital train
This magnificent train has been badly
wanted in Natal since the beginning of
the war. Major Frazier-Creagh's imnro-
vised hospital train has removed about
1900 wounded but, though every care
was taken, the narrow doors of the car
riages, and the humping and shunting,
appliances now at hand, may be avoided
There are still over 1908 patients in the
hospital so the train is not
too late.
