BLUNDERS IN PALESTINE.
PLIGHT OF BRITISH SOLDIERS. •London, Dec. 21. Mr. Jeffries, instancing the blunders of the administration in Palestine, says the British gendarmerie are living near Surafeend in battered and wretched Nissen huts, while on the hills overlooking the camp stand seventy to eighty of the latest type of cantonments, elegantly painted, with sashed windows, casting thousands, all unoccupied. The officers and non-coms, are little better housed. The drainage at the camp is bad. The going to mass in rainy weather, have to plough through streams by the aid of electric torches.—-United Service.
