and other foreigners in the Transvaal to
secure from the Boer Government the con-
cesson to them of the civil rights enjoyed
by the Beers has not even an approximate
reference to the absorption of the Dutch
republic into England's regimen.
On the contrary, the maicontents, who
are threatening a revolution unless their
demands are granted, include many Ameri-
cans and Germans, who aim to consolidate
the republic by a liberal franchise.
The Beers. who now form minority OF
the population of the Transvaal. wish to
retain their rule over the Uitlanders, and
continue to levy taxes and regulate the
mining industry through Boer cliques.
The foreigners claim that mining opera
tions are worse than hampered by the re-
strictions placed upon them by the Beers.
The Government refuses to allow the
teaching of English in the schools, with
the result that English-speaking children,
of whom there are now 10000 in the repub-
lie, are debarred from obtaining an educa-
ton in their mother tongue.
The outlook is threatening, as the Ult-
landers are determined to obtain what
they hold are their rights, and a popular
rising is within sight unless the Beers act
prudently in the matter.

Peculiar Practices Among the Anaish
People in Indiana.
DECATUR, IND, Dec. 28.-Thlrteen
Amish ministers and prominent members
of that church have been charged with
committing various crimes, the worst
being immortality and the rude manner in
which they bury their dead. The Amish
are very peculiar class of people and are
known for their odd modes of worship and
religious beliefs. They believe only the
Bible, and they hold that all laws made by
men are contrary to the Bible. They also
believe the earth is fat, and recently dis
missed schOolteacher for trying to teach
their children that the earth was round.
Another of their beliefs is that the dead
should be buried in wheatfields and that
wheat should grow over their graves.
These people live in colonies, never sep
arating or moving from place unless the
entire colony moves. There is colony OF
500 in the southern part of this county
and the arrests have caused great excite
ment, as they have resided here several
years unmolested. They marry and inter-
marry without procuring marriage
licenses. In several instances they have
married cousins and half-sisters.
Christian Schwartz and Joseph Schwartz,
their leading ministers, are charged with
solemnizing marriages without license.
Jacob J. Eicher, Peter Mazelin and Peter
Schwartz were charged with marrying
first cousins.
They buried corpse near farmhouse.
A hole two feet square and three deep was
MADE and the corpse thrown into it with

They own much land and are quite

Earned Title of Tennis Champion In

The title of woman tennis champion
OF Chicago rests well upon Miss Marion
Capwell, OF the windermere Tennis
Club, and will remain her undisputed
property until next season. when a
small army Of feminine racket-swing-
ers will undoubtedly attempt the diff
cult feat Of wrestling It from her. says
Chicago Post Miss Capwell has been
the heroine OF score of Journeys, in
variably finishing with more honors
than a representative of her sex gener-
ally secures in hard-fought sets. But
her greatest triumph came at the con-
clusion OF the recent women's tourna-
ment az the Kenwood Country Club. In
the final round OF the tourney, when she
defeated Miss Carrie Nicely in a contest
remarkable for it's closeness and
marked by superior playing. an en-
thusiastic crowd of spectators greeted
her as champion. Such good players as
Miss Cloes. Miss Rev and Miss Faulk-
ner fell before Miss Capwelrs prowess
In the Kenwood matches. Particularly
was this gratifying to the woman cham
pion, as her first and only serious defeat
was that administered at Windermere
tourney by Miss Cloes. Those who are
acquainted with Miss Capwell declare
that she is capable of many more ten
mis- conqaests. She plays the game as
she does everything requiring effort
with her entire store of vim and cour-
age, making her an almost irresistible
opponent She is pronounced bru-
nette, small OF stature, but extremely
well-knitted in frame, thus securing a
natural advantage over many players OF
her sex. Muscular effort in the courts
does not appear to tire the young lady.
She attributes some of her successes not
especially to her superiority over OPP
ponents but rather to her easy manner
of playing and her entire control of her
actions. Tresence of mind, quick in
tuition and the knack of generalship
