KRUGER KICKS ON IT

| by saying, TO prevent the internal weak
ness of the Transvaal which was due
| to Uitlander discomfort, but the gov
eminent would continue TO give Presi-
dent Kruger friendly counsel. He re-
minded the gentlemen of the opposite
| side that the home rule he suggested
| for the Transvaal was gas and water
home rule, which President Kruger was
| perfectly justified in rejecting.
The invitation of President Kruger
10 visit England was only given after
the receipt of a private intimation that
it would be accepted. To prevent any
misconception, President Kruger had
been informed that the government
would not discuss any modification OF
the British suzerainty over the Trans
Vaal.
He regretted President Kruger's re-
ply as reported from Petoria because it
was due to a misapprehensi He
had invited President Kruger as a
friend, both to him and to the Trans
wall, and he was sure mat the presi-
dent would be received in England with
the respect due him. In any case he
should continue his efforts in behalf OF
the Uitlanders in the confidence that
he would receive the support Of his
countrymen.
TEMPER OF THE TRANSVAAL.
The correspondent of the Times at
PetOr3a telegraphs
''Mr. Cecil Rhodes return, the publ
cation Of Mr.. Chamberlain's dispatch
and the reply thereto OF President Kru-
ger, have led people to believe that the
bill is again impending The govern
ment is undoubtedly much inceused at
what is considered the discourtesy Of
Great Britain in publishing the Cham
berlain dispatch before its delivery here
Its contents meet with the approval of
no party. The Uitlanders regard the
suggested remedy as impracticable, I'M
suitable and tending to emphasize ex-
listing differences instead of healing
them at johannesburg.
There is the best authority for stat
ing that President Kruger's reply to
Mr.. Chamberlain is really intended for
home consumption, and does not imply
a desire TO rupture negotiations. Presi-
dent Kruger is still anxious to visit
England. The Hollanders and Ger
mans are doing their best to prevent
him But the government believes
that a permanent agreement is only
possible by personal negotiations be-
tween President Kruger and Mr.. Cham
berlain."
The Standard says There is rea-
son to believe that before accepting
the invitation to visit England, Presi-
dent Kruger tried TO stipulate that Eng
lands treaty right Of suzerainty should
be open TO discussion. The govern
ment refused to accede. We under
stand that President Kruger complain
ed of the language of Lord Salisbury's
speech to the Non-Catholic association"
The Daily News CLiberaD in an edi-
torial says: ''NIr. Chamberlain's first
mistake in dealing with the Transvaai
is bad one. The publication of his
dispatch has stiffened President Kru-
gers back. A crisis seems to be i'm
minent again and nobody can say how

HOW WASPS AND BEES GET
DRUNK.

Mr.. Lawson TAFT says: " have
been watching the wasps with great
interest, and have noticed the avidity
with which they attack certain fruit
when fully ripe, rotten IN fact, and |
have also noticed some Of the peculiar
results OF their doing SO. The sugar
IN some fruits which are most attack
cd by wasps has a tendency to pass
into a kind of alcohol in the ordinary
process Of rOtting, a fact which is
easily ascertained by the use Of a still
not large enough to attract the atten-
ton of the excise authorities. On
such fruit, particularly grapes and
certain plums, you will see wasps
pushing and fighting in numbers much
larger than can be accommodated, and
o will see them get very drunk,
crawl away in a semi-s0mn0lent con
dition, and repose in the grass for
some time, till they get over the
bout" and then they will go at 1T
again. 1t is while they are thus
affected that they do their worst
singing, both in the virulent nature
of the stroke and the utterly un'
prOvoked assaults Of which they are
guilty. ! was stung last year by
drunken wasp, and suffered severely
from symptoms OF nerve poison fol
several days. In such drunken pecu'
liarities they resemble their human
contemporaries"
