wrecked In 1889, and his heroic conduct
on that occasion brough him the decor

Russian Order of st. Anna, a Greek or

memberships in the English and Danish

opinion is worth very little, but from
what l have seen can form an esti-
mate. OF the British, both men and
officers too much cannot be said. The
British officer, it seems to me, is at
times foolishly brave. That is to saw.
he is impressed with the necessity of
inspiring his men and showing a con-
tempt for death or danger. It has
often been said that this is magnifi-
cent. but it is not war. am not quite
sure that I agree as to that. When
the man in the ranks knows that his
officer is not Sinking and that he has
no fear of consequences, it makes him
courageous and inspires Kim to do his
best. The English soldier is plucky,
logged and usually contented. I do
not think he has the adaptability of
the American soldier, but he impresses
me very favorably. The Boer. of
course, has the advantage over the
Britisher-as think he would have
over the soldiers of any nation in the
world-of being natural born shot.
From infancy the Boer has been hunt
ing big game and has been accustomed
to the use Of firearms. Distances on
the veldt are extremely deceptive ow-
ing to the atmospheric conditions, and
it is difficult for man not trained to
that form of outdoor life to be able to
accurately determine the range. The
Boer, on the other hand, having al
ways led the life of hunter with a
keenly trained eye, has his adversary
at disadvantage. That explains why
in the principal engagements the loss
of life on the British side was so heavy
and the casualties among the Beers
comparatively few. The British in
fantryman is probably as good a
marksman as can be found in any
other army, but he is hopelessly out.

this showiness very properly. White
canvas and tans are to be the colors for
footwear, and, as the knickerbockers
