In the TransvaaI the woman Has the
whip Hand.

From the New York Press.
Mrs. Boer may find life in the Transvaal
tough and monotonous. She has distinc-
tions, though. for she is the most kissed
woman on earth. She may be as homely
as the proVerbial mud fence" her voice
may rasp like a file and her housekeeping
put Hottentot to the blush; but from
the cradle to the grave she is kissed-kiss-
ed by her great-grandfather and great
grandmother, by her grandfather and
course. She is kissed by her granduncles
and aunts, by her cousins male and fe-
male, to the last degree of kinship. She is
kissed by the relatives of the above and
by their relatives. Her brothers and
brothers-in-law, her sisters and sisters-in-
law and all her relatives and female friends
residing long or short under her roof kiss
her repeatedly every day.
She is naturally fattered by this deli
cate attention, and turns ii to good ac-
count for she rules her imam" kind with
a rod of iron. They do not know it, how
ever, nor does she suspect it. All of them
would take oath that the exact reverse was
the case. Ask her to speak in church or
on a platform anywhere and she would
imagine you to be crazy. That is a mans
business" she would say. Nevertheless
Mrs. Boer would see that her man OF
son would say in church or on a platform
Just exactly what she wished said. Wo-
mans rights as understood by the Ameri-
can woman would be utterly incompre-
hensible TO the BOer woman, were they
ever so clearly explained.
Her husband might be able to see It
quicker than she. for his privileges are
more limited Whether he is poor or rich,
he dares not dispose of an article no
larger than a tenpenny nail unless he con-
suits with her. He would not even think
OF going ont TO herd sheep unless he had
her approval. Her sons fare no better.
Even marriage does not give them lib
erty. She commands her married son OF
fifty IN the same way that she did when
he was FIVE. He obcys and kisses her lust
as childiike. She calls her husband By his
Christian name 20 her friends. To others
she speaks OF him as THE baae.'' ASK her

TAMPA's BRIDGE.
The Chances Are That the Building
of 1t VIII Be Delayed.

Tampa, Fla, Dec. 21-It seems highly
probable that there will be no bridge over
the IIillsborough river between Hyde Park
and the business portion of Tampa for
some time to come. Although the bridge
is three-fourths completed, all work has
been stopped and the contractors refuse
to expend another cent until assured of
their pay. The old wooden bridge was re-
moved over six months ago, and since that
time there has been no way to drive from
Tampa proper to Hyde Park except by
the upper bridge that connects the Second
ward with West Tampa, a mile above the
Tampa Bay hotel.
Capt. ]. A. Bryan, who has the contract
was authorized to go ahead and build
first-class bridge with brick piers and steel
Superstructure. At the end of each week
bills for the work done were to be audited
additional 10 per cent which should go to
the contractor as his salary. Though many
of the bills were not paid in cash and the
city's notes had to be discounted at the
banks, the work has been steadily kept
going. But now the St. Louis firm that is
supplying the steel superstrueture insists
on 5000 in cash being paid down imme-
diately or the steel will not be unloaded
Although it arrived here weeks ago. I'm
fortunately the city authorities have not
the necessary money, and it is probable
after the bonding election, Dec q.
The strength of Tampas boom is being
severely tested this winter and If it stands
the test no one can again accuse Tampa
of having a mere mushroom growth The
disastrous freeze of "a IS is lust beginning
to make itself fully felt. The little money
the orange growers had saved ahead IS
nearly, or quite, exhausted by this time
and no crops of importance can now be
raised before spring. Consequently the ag-
ricultural interests of Tampa's tributary
territory are suffering from a severe,
though probably temporary, depression.
A suit for $4,000 damages has been
brought against Mayor Salomonson of
Tampa by O'Hallorans cigar factory of
West Tampa. The plaintiff alleges that
Mr.. Salomonson, who is an officer in the
Tampa Real Estate and Loan Association,
prevented certain prospective purchasers
from being property holders in the neigh
borhood of plaintiffs factory, by stating
to said prospective buyers that the plain
tiff was on the verge of bankruptcy. AS
Mr.. Salomonson is agent for the Ybor CITY
Land and Improvement Company the suit
becomes indirectly a fight between the
cigar industries of Ybor City and those
of West Tampa.

Art1chokes.

The following question and answer
appeared in recent issue of the Sou tn
ern Cultivator:
How are artichokes planted and cultivated?
What amount per acre? Where can get seed,
and at what price per bushel? Does it pay to
grow them, as feed for hogs. on fertile soil? B.
F. j. Porter, Ala.
Would it pay to plant artichokes for hogs?
What variety is best for hogs? What kind OF
soils suit them best? How should they be planted?
Do you have to plant them every year? What
kind of manure suits them best? What time
should they be planted, and how cultivated?-
G. W. d., Rowesville, s. C.
Most emphatically yes, If they are
properly managed. Be sure to get Je-
rusalem artichokes, as the Burr arti-
choke is only for table use and would
utterly disappoint you. A fertile soil is
absolutely necessary for satisfactory
yield. A loamy soil, such as suits most
root crops, is best.
They should be planted in rows three
feet each way, and once planted, if a
sufficient number of tubers for seed are
left in the ground each tall, they will
remain dormant all winter and in the
spring commence new growth, and
thus mature crops year after year.
The cultivation is simple, being only
such as to keep down weeds and grass.
Hogs become very fond of them, and if
turned in on them about frost. when
they cease to grow will gather the crop
and rapidly convert it into meat.
The best fertilizer is we'll decomposed
stable manure, or fertilizer in which
phosphoric acid and potash predomi-
nate.
The tubers should be planted IN the
spring, either whole or cut.
Any responsible scotsman will fur
nish them and give you the price per
bushel at which they sell.
