Mr.. Kruger and his entourage, the dis

is quite unlikely. The news which Great
Britain was SO anxiously awaiting, came
characteristically on an entirely pacific and
uninteresting Sunday afternoon, when Lon

late sunday night dispatch was received
from Lord Kitchener In which he said the
Boer delegates were coming 10 Pretoria,
that they had accepted Great Britain's
terms and that they were prepared to sign
the terms Of surrender.
Mr., Brodeiick, the war secretary, per-
sonally presented this message to King
Edward. who was at Buckingham palace.

chances. and nothing concerning the re-

great pleasure. Many references were made
10 the coincidence OF peace in South
Africa with the glorious first Of June, ever
memorable In Great Brltains history by
reason of Howe's victory over the French
fleet In IDA.
At the fashionable hotels and restaurants
patriotic announcements were read and
those present repeatedly stood up and
chced when the hands played God Save
