Hoare, New Bishop of Victoria, Hong-Kong, Church Missionary Society in Central China, head of the Theological College at Ningpo; Mr. W. Astor Chanler, raiser of a Volunteer regiment in America, African explorer of note, lack of official recognition has in no way damped his patriotism; and he has now led...[men] equipped at his private expense to Tampa to join the force preparing to invade Cuba; the late Mr. J. S. Hyland, Ph.D., F.G.S. The death of Dr. Hyland, reported by cable from Elmina last week, has not only added another victim to the climatic dangers of the Dark Continent, but has cut short, at the early age of thirty-two, the career of a very talented and popular geologist; Prince Albert of Monaco is an enthusiast on oceanography'.
