To Attorney Ralph Simon belongs the
credit OF being the first bather in the

through a desire for publicity, but from
ignorance in the handling OF a sallboat.

Tight Shoes Out Of Date.

According to the English trade pa
pers of the bootmakers, the smallest
sizes of ladies' boots and shoes are becom-
ing less and less asked for. The eager
participation in outdoor sports and rec
reations which has become a part of
the daily routine of the modern wom-
ans life doubtless accounts for this par

SOUTH AFRICAN TROUBLES.
An Increasing Growth in the Feeling
of Unrest.

LONDON, Jan. 29.-In the House Of
Commons to-day the discussion of the
question of the appointment of a COM
mission to inquire into the troubles of
South Africa was resumed. In the course
Of the debate Rt Hon. Joseph Chamber
lain, Secretary of State for the Colonies.
declared that the position in South Afri-
ca was still unsettled and that during
the last few months there had been a
recurrence and increasing growth of the
feeling Of unrest which must be allayed
Matters had been rendered much
worse. he said, by the recent legislation
or the part of the Boer Parliament, and
moreover, although President Kreuger
had again and again promised to give
favorable consideration to the griey-
ances of the Titlanders, he had not done
so Great Britain. Mr.. Chamberlain de-
clared still maintained that peace was
insecure. and would remain so until the
Uitlanders' grievances were redressed
He felt sure that an inquiry by a COM
mission formed for that purpose would
further these ends.
In reply to a question by Sir George
Baden-Powell. Mr. Chamberlain said
that the Government, with the approval
of her majesty, had invited the Prime
Ministers OF the several colonies to come
TO England and take part In the celebra-
ton Of the completion of the sixtieth
year of the Queens reign. If the invi-
tations were accepted. Mr. Chamber
lain continued the Premiers would be
the guests of Great Britain.
