To enlighten us, a British correspondent reveals the following facts: Mr. Chamberlain's umbrella is that is to actually a sword-sticsay, the handle can be pulled out and a thin rapier withdrawn from the stem. Mr. Chamberlain to an expert fencer. The ribs of the umbrella can be removed and expanded at a moments notice into a wire entanglement, behind which Mr. Chamberlain could take cover if charged by cavalry. The cover can quickly be converted into a sandbag and used either for a firing rest for the elbow, a pillow when sleeping on the veldt, or as a rifle rest. Dangling from the umbrella's middle is a black tassel in which messages may be hidden and dropped from an airplane when all other communications fail.
