The slump in south Africa.

South Africa is the scene of the worst
predicaments of the British ministry. II
is quite possible that any other minister
in Mr.. Chamberlain place would have
no more to show as the result OF four
months OF an active African policy than
Mr.. Chamberlain can produce to-day.
One thing we may, however, be certain
of; and that is, no minister, no matter
how imbecle, could have less to show
than the trophies which have fallen to
the share of Mr.. Chamberlain. Presi
dent Kruger has had the best OF Mr.
Jameson he has "bested" the Uitland-
rs he has "bested' Mr.. Cecil Rhodes
and now he has ''bested" Mr.. Chamber
lain. The net result Of four months at
tempt to shake the position Of the shrewd
old gentleman who is said to tyrannize
over the Transvaal has been to establish
British impotence, to convince even Mr.
Chamberlain himself that he can do
nothing. and to reduce somewhat high
flying Colonial Secretary to condition
of collapse. From 'rhe Progress. OF the

Concerning Poisaners.

An interesting legal question was re-
Gently decided in New York. A woman
was on trial for the murder of her moth
er. This is the statement made by New
York paper "Since her indictment she
has come into the possession Of a
fortune, which by the will of her father
was to 90 to her on the death OF her
mother, whom she is accused of having
poisoned. The lower court held that she
could not inherit the family property, as
she was under indictment for murder OF
the person from whom she would inherit,
but the upper court reversed this verdict
and gave her the full control OF the inner
itance on the ground that the murder had
not been proven. ii her trial ends In
her conviction, the question will then
arise as to whether she can retain her
property thus inherited. Title to prop
erty, it is said, cannot be acquired
in crime. The English courts ruled
to this effect when they held, in
the case OF Mrs. Maybrick, that wife
who poisons her husband il not entitled
to the insurance money on his life."
