BADEN-POWELL’S HUMOR

Sn

(London Illustrated Bits.)

One of Baden-Powell’s most regular correspondents was General Snyman, the party who madea_ regular job of | trying to rush Mafeking evey Tuesday | and Friday, and passing the rest of the week in recovering from the effects of his rush. | Thecorrespondence would start in a curt sort of way. Snyman would drop a line to say that he was about to shell | the hospitals and the women’s _laager, 'as he didn't seem to be making any impression anywhere else. Then | Baden-Powell would acknowledge the receipt of his kind letter and offer to place every facility in the way of the

sweetest pleasures of life. Snyman’s

Powell that there would be hour’s rest for the funeral of the vic- tims. Baden-Powell would reply in

a general sort ofa way that so far there was no victims to deal with and he trusted Mr. Snyman would go on shooting as long as his fancy permitted. Sometimes Baden-Powell would write ina less concilliatory yein. It ;seems that on one occasion, after ‘shelling Mafeking for three hours and ‘ahalf, the Boers smashed up a two pound box of cijsars in Baden-Powell’s tent which he had omitted

hadn’t the room bric-a-brac. | Ifthere was no shooting in the af- ' ternoon, Baden-Powell would organize some athletic sports and an occasional church bazaar or Sunday-school rat- fle. While the show went on he would | wander round telling the leading citi- zens stories of his childhood to make ‘them laugh and keep them cheerful. / Sometimes, when things were going ' along all right, he would go up to his studio, and do a little painting.

In the evening Baden-Powell turned | himself into a public entertainer for ithe time being. He would have a piano on the platform inthe cuncet! hall, and he would announce that he was about to give a little Corney Grain nterlainment tur the benefit of the | stcained Boers. Now and again there would be an interruption. Just as he had got unto the rolicking chorus of a | song imitating Kruger having a nigat | out, the call-boy would come out with 'an urgent note. Baden-Powell would read the note, and then say: “Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen. I have got to go ont ina rather a hurry to push | the Boers back alittle. I will return in about half an hour, and will then

Everything for

conspirator hopes tu dull the desires for revenge by time. With an impud- ence and a boldness in keeping with his past disreputable career. Sheng retains his headquarters at Shanghai--- that is to say, the one city in China

whichm has the _Jargest foreign population, and, whichis com-

manded by the biggest number of for- | ¢ign war ships. From thence Sheng | has during the past thirty days issued * series of messages, purporting to come from Pekin, that it is impossible

come through Sheng deprives them of the principal elements of their reliabi- lity. even if they were not in themselves uf so cortiadictory a character.

For Sheng has on several occasions given to the outer world messages ad- muting the masacre of the foreigners, only to issue some fresh communica- ton purporting to have come from Pekin, and insisting that the envoys alive and safe. That Sheng is aware Of the real condition of affairs in the Chinese capital, with which he con- trois the communication, every one is convincec.

eagerly waiting ke withholds it. He declines to furnish us with the proofs which he assuredly possesses as to whether the foreigners at Pekin are living or dead and appears to take a delight in prolonging and rendering more acute our anxiety. His latest an- nouncement, is a promise by the Chinese government to con- vey the foreigners at Pekin to Tien Tsin and to deliver them over to the allies. But his announcament is receiv: ed with just the same _ incredulity by every one here as all the previous noti- fications issued by Sheng. In order to understand the distrust with which Sheng is regarded by every one who has ever lived in China or had any, dealing with the government there, it must be explained that for the las: fifteen or twenty years he has officiated as thechannel by whieh foreigners in search of concession and _ privileges have been wont to pay their bribes to the viceroys and leading goveinment officials.

PLAN A GENERAL WAR.

CHINESE SCHEME FOR TH€ DEFEAT OF

THE FOREIGN ARMIES,

The London Daily Telegraph prints a Shanghai despatch containing infor- mation from a very important source,

which, however, the correspondent states he cannot guarantee to be

authentic, to the effect that if the officials of Central and Southern China persuade themselves that the partition of the country is iutended, the whole Empire will rise against the foreigners. Yuan-Shih-Kai, Governor of Snantung, has drawn up definite plan of action for the present crisis which has been sent to the Viceroys and Governors. The substance of this plan is that the generals who are marching to the rescue of the Emper- or must not attack Prince Tuan or the Boxers until the Viceroys see land. If the members of the Legations have really been murdered, the Western powers, he says, will try to destroy Pekin. The generals must help Prince Tuan and the Boxers to avert this. They must form the rear guard during the flight of the Empress to Hsianyu, where a new capital will be establish- ed. All parts and cities accessible to foreign warships must be strengthened, and a solid front presented. This will induce the foreigners to make peace. Overtures must begin prompr- ly, the war preparations proceeding concurrently. The Governor adds that diplomacy always helps China, He further says that the export of arms and munitions from Europe is being stopped, and the Chinese arsen-

Legations be alive, and the partition- ing of China reliably disclaimed, the generals who are moving north will order the Boxers to disperse on pain of attack. Peace will then easily follow.

CRONJE.

With regards to the recent paragraph relating that some one had given Scot- land the credit of having sent Cronje’s ancestors over to South Africa, a correspondent sends me the following from the Cape Town Mercury:—‘*Now that the world is ringing with the name of Piet Cronje, the famous Boer gener- al. itis interesting to note that his patronymic was originally French. His ancestor—Pierre Crognet or Crosnier —was a French refugee, who left
