AN EFFECTIVE PARABLE,
General JOubert's Story Saved the
Lives of the Jameson Raiders.

General Joubert's Story Saved the
Lives of the Jameson Raiders.
A most interesting account of the
manner in which the lives of Jameson
and his men were spared, after the sur
render to the Beers, is told by the
News Van den Dag of Amsterdam:
The stern old Boers when they had
Jameson and his fellow officers in their
hands, determined to execute the lead
ers of the band at daybreak. The meet
ing took place in President Kruger g
house, 20 being present, of whom the
great majority, wild with Indignation
at the sudden inroad into their terri
tory, were for shooting the British Off
GERS at once.
President Kruger opposed this sum-
mary plan and used all his eloquence
and all his influence ON behalf of the
prisoners. For a long time his efforts
were vain. 1t was O'Clock in the
morning, and the presidents opponents
were still for execution. The lives of
the foreigners hung by thread.
At length General Joubert one of the
feWewho agreed with the president, had
recourse to the old time Boer method of
convincing his hearers He made use of
parable.
Friends, he said, Twill you not
listen to my voice once more? Suppose
that close to my farm lives bad neigh
Dor who keeps fierce hounds in his
house, worrying my sheep exceedingly
and also killing some. What, then,
would you have me to do? Should kill
the hounds to be free of this worry?
Truly my neighbor would say unto me:
Thou hast killed my hounds, yet their
value is greater than the value of your
sheep. Pay thou mel Is it not better
that l should take the hounds and GO
ing into my neighbours house say,
these are thine; now pay me for the
harm they have done my fiock?' -
There was silence, and the general
continued: "We have caught the pack.
Is it not better to send them to the
British government with demands for
reparation, lest the British send more
hounds to worry us aneW?"
The old form of argument proved
successful. The wisdom of moderation
became apparent, and the council of
war accepted the advice of their chiefs.

Continuous Steel Pipe.

The West Australian government has
taken a contract to lay nearly $50 miles
of water pipe Of a novel character. This
pipe is to be made of steel spirals pack
ed in concrete. Sheet metal is cut into
strips of the required width. These are
fed into a machine and welded into one
continuous strip. AS the strip is fed ir-
to the machine rivet holes are punched
then the edges of the laps are brought
together by machinery and held during
the process of riveting, which is all
done by compression. The lap is thrown
on the outside of the pipe, rendering the
inner surface sooth and even throughout
its length. A tenacious hydraulic &C.
ment is packed around the laps, making
the pipe absolutely water tight. New
York Ledger.
