A WAR MEMORIAL IN ST. PAUL'S.
"That the memory of the five thousand colonial troops who fell in South Africa should be ineffaceably honoured in the Cathedral of London," says Lloyd's News, •' is a proposal that will appeal lo every loyal heart. The task of promoting such a worthy object has been taken up by Ihe committee of the Colonial Troops' Club, which has Lord Roberts as president, and Mr Chamberlain and Mr Brcdrick as vicepresidents, while Miss Broke-Hunt is the secretary. This club, established temporarily for the benefit of colonials in London for the Coronation, no longer exists, but a balance of seyeral hundred pounds remains, which is lo go towa-d the erection of a monument. The promoters have obtained the permission of. the De:m a.d Chapter of St. Paul's to place this lasting symbol of Imperial unity in the Cathedral."
