Cape Town, May 4.--The Prince of Wales had a thorough and tho- roughly necessary rest at 'Govern- ment House over the week-end. For thirty-six hours he had been obvious- ly inconvenienced by a strained wrist after a veritable orgy of hand- shaking. 'The vigorous salutes of thousands of former service men, many of whom felt they were greeting an old service comrade from the Buffs, bodies. of Dutch-English councillors, students and ladies of the Cape, compelled him to nurse a stiffening right arm, and even his left is show- ing signs 'of fatigue.

This augurs well also for the days ahead, both for play parties and for study of the evolution of the South African administrative ma- chinery.

Toronto, May 4.--Execution of the Maple Leaf Milling Company's great sian flour order has been com- pleted, and payment of the final cheqiie for $300,000 was made last week by the Amtorg Trading Com- pany, Moscow's New York commer- cial agency. This marks the con- clusion of the largest milling tran- saction in the history of the world; a' contract covering the actual ship- ment of $16,395,000, worth of high grade flour. The total product of flour during these four months, as shipped to Russia, has been 2,629,000 bags of 140 pounds each. This means 158 trainloads, or emough flour, loaded on the railway cars, to reach from Toronto to Hamilton. It has taken 34 vessels to carry it across the At- lantie.

Another Crew Rescued. Halifax, N.8., May 4.--With the rescue Saturday by the Government steamer Stanley, of the crew of the Norwegian steamer Moldegaard, which piled up on *Shut-ip Island, nine miles off Chebucto Head, it was thought in marine circles that the toll of life taken in the series of North Atlantic disasters caused by the dense fog that has shrouded the coast of Nova Scotia for three days, would remain at five, representing the loss in sinking of the Nova Scotia schooner Cape D'Or, which was rammed and sunk Thursday af- ternoon by the coal carrying steamer Clackamas. Clackamas Is Arrested. Halifax, May 4.--The coal-carry- ing wooden steamer Clackamas was arrested Saturday and $30,000 claimed by the owners of the three- masted schooner Cape d'Or, which was rammed by the steamer off Cape Lahaye Thursday afternoon with the loss of five lives.

The Dean of Ontario, preaching in St. George's cathedral on Sunday morning, referred to the splendid account of the life of the parish which appeared in the British Whig on Saturday.

Toronto, May 4.--Breweries throughout Ontario are work- ing at a merry clip preparing for the day when 4.4 beer will be on tap. At present the brewers are handicapped by reason of the fact that they do. not know who will be permitted to sell Def. IH the' re this information, they are not at present able to make any shipments. This is causing congestion and inconvenience at the breweries. Meantime, the breweries are brewing, bottling, labelling and packing at - high speed, so that when it is known who is to be allowed to sell the beer, supplies will be rushed to permit holders at top speed. One Toronto brewery is all ready to ship 50 or 60 car loads to its agents throughout the province at a moment's notice.
