called on the artist to go sightseeing
with him, stating all he was to do was
to take his picture whenever he de-

rRANsvAAL WAR ITEMS.

War news has almost entirely disap-
-peared from the London press. Lord
Kitchener contents himself with the
briefest possible bulletins summing mp
the captures from day TO day, and the
meager press dispatches contain no de
tails of any interest. Lord Kitchener's
memoranda have proved that bands of
guerrillas were coming into the Brit

men. All the commanders in the
Orange River Colony have instructions

When digging in the gravel beds of
South Kensington for the foundations
of the Victoria and Albert museum in
London great quantities Of the bones
of extinct animals were found, c-ea-
lures which lived in the London basin
at the time that the rivers drift and
brick earth were being deposited
These were the bones OF the great
stays then common, of the elephant
and OF the primeval horse, creatures
which lived there before the channel
was cut between England and France,
though not perhaps before man had
appeared in what is now the Thames
valley. A scientist, to whom some of
the remains were taken said that they
reminded him of the great discovery
of similar remains in the brick earth
at Ilford, in Essex, England, thirty
seven years ago, when he personally
saw dug from the brick fields of that
parish the head and tusks of one of
the largest mammoth elephants in the
world.

scabs were sent back home and the
regular men were given their old posi-
