No. 1. Boy: 28 lashes for resisting Military Police in discharge of their duty while arresting him. No. 2. Two Boys: 25 lashes each for being drunk and fighting. No. 3. 27 Boys: 5 lashes each for being disorderly and having no pass after 9 o'clock. At the conclusion of the above cases of the day the Provost Marshal called the native police before him and complimented them on the good work they had done. When the British entered Bloemfontein there was general rejoicing in the native "location," but it is impossible to insist too plainly that the clemency of British rule will not extend to violent, drunken, and disorderly persons, whether they be white or black. * * * * * ARMY ORDERS, SOUTH AFRICA. ARMY HEADQUARTERS, GOVERNMENT HOUSE, BLOEMFONTEIN, _March 20, 1900_. 1. _Death of Commander-in-Chief in India._ It is with deep regret that the Field Marshal, Commanding-in-Chief, announces to the Army in South Africa the death of His Excellency Sir W. S. A. Lockhart, G.C.B., K.C.S.I., Commander-in-Chief in India, which occurred at Calcutta on the evening of the 18th of March, 1900. Lord Roberts is sure that his own feelings will be shared by every Officer and Soldier who has served under Sir William Lockhart's command, and more particularly by those who have been personally acquainted with him. After a long and varied Military career, which began in Abyssinia, time of the Mutiny, and which included war service in Acheen, Afghanistan, Burma, The Black Mountain, Wazeristan, Isazai, and finally the command of the Tirah Expeditionary Force, Sir William Lockhart was appointed to the Chief Command in India. Possessed of exceptional ability, he distinguished himself alike as a Staff Officer and as a commander in the field, and by his uniform kindness and consideration he endeared himself to all who came in contact with him. In the late Commander-in-Chief the Soldiers in India, both British and Native, have lost a friend whose only thought was to further their interests and promote their welfare, and the Indian Empire has lost a trusted Counsellor who, on account of his intimate knowledge of the Native races, and his acquaintance with Eastern affairs, cannot soon or easily be replaced. 2. _Amendment._ With reference to Army Order No. 5 (b) of 4th March, for Captain R. H. Hall read Captain R. H. Hare. 3. _Telegrams._ The Field Marshal Commanding-in-Chief has great pleasure in publishing the following telegram which has been received:-- From Sirdar Khan, Bahadur Casim, Haji Mahomed Khansahib, Kazi Mahommed Ali Murshaj. Bombay Mahomedans offer your Lordship, your gallant Officers and Soldiers hearty congratulations on brilliant success Transvaal, and pray Almighty crown efforts greater success and honours. By order, W. KELLY, M. General, D. A. General.
