Sir Henry McCallum, a former Newfoundland telegraph operator and
	engineer, has been appointed the new Governor of Natal, South Africa.
	McCallum was with Kitchener at the War College, graduating in 1871,
	when he became the Superintendent of Military Telegraphs for the
	southern district of Great Britain.  McCallum is able to construct
	a bridge, a highway, or a conduit, to construct a railway, to it
	up, run and repair a locomotive; further, he can operate the electric
	wires and control a telegraph system, survey a territory, build a
	fort and plan its defenses, and even organize and preside over
	a municipality, and administer a territory as large as the British
	Isles or as small as his new and challenging post.  Sir Henry's
	record in college or the colonies, is as unique and diverse as any
	other British colonial staff.
