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 i'll which the lives Of Jameson
and his men were spared, after the sur
render to the Beers, is told by tho
NEWS Van den Dag of Amsterdam:
The stern old Beers, 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's
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
few who agreed with the president, had
recourse to the old time Boer method of
convincing his hearers. He made use of
a parable.
Friends, he said, Twill you not
listen to my voice once more? Suppose
that close to my farm lives a 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 l 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 should take the hounds and 60
ing into my neighbours house say,
These are thine; now pay me for the
harm they have done my flock?'"
There was silence, and the general
continued: 1--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.

ME NAMING OF JOHN BULL.
DR.. ArbuthnOt Was the Man Who
Thus Duhhed Grent Rritnin.

DR.. Arbuthnot Was the Man Who
Thus Dubbed Great Britain.
Dr. John Arbuthnot, one of the many
royal physicians to whom the Scotch
city of Aberdeen has given birth, was
the author of John Bulls being. AL
most forgotten now by all but the
erudite, who remember him as the init
mate of Pope and Swift, Arbuthnot
christened the British nation in bulk as
John Bull in the political strife Incl
dental to the dismissal of the Wing
ministry of ITO, when the able and
avaricious Marlborough saw the begin
ming of the decline of his brilliant for
tunes.
1.-THE History of John Bull" was a
satire on the political events preceding
the treaty of Utrecht in 1913. written
by Arbuthnot. In 1904 he had been Gre
ated physician extraordinary to the
queen in recognition of his services in
saving the life of Anne's husband,
Prince George of Denmark. He had be-
come the queens medical attendant. a
position of no mean importance at a
time when so much depended ON the
succession to the crown, and he was
closely in touch with court life.
''For the better understanding of the
following history the reader ought to
know that Bull in the main was an
honest, plain dealing fellow, choleric,
bold and of very inconstant temper
He dreaded not old Lewis, either at
backsword, single falchion or cudgel
play, but then he was very apt to quar-
rel with his best friends, especially if
they pretended to govern him. If you
fiattered him, you might lead him like
a child. Johns temper depended very
much on the air; his spirits rose and fell
with his weather glass.
John was quick and understood his
business very we'll, but no man alive
was more careless in looking into his
accounts or more cheated by partners. -"

SERVANTS EXCUSES.
One Woman Who Was Clever Enough
to Circumvent Them.

One Woman Who Was Clever Enough
to Circumvent Them.
We have heard the story of the Cana
dian mistress who. with seven servants
in her house, was obliged to go to the
garden and pick berries for the table.
Each of the servants declined the task
with the stereotyped excuse, SIT amt
my place to pick berries" Ord. in his
History of Cleveland relates an an-
ecdote of Margaret Wharton, who,
while accepting her servants excuse,
yet made them do her will.
In one of her visits to Scarborough
Mrs Wharton, with her usual economy,
had family pie for dinner which she
directed the footman to convey to the
bakehouse. This the man declined to
do as not belonging to his place, or
rather, as derogatory to his conse-
quence. The lady then moved the ques-
ton to the coachman, but found still
stronger objection.
To save the pride of both Mrs
Wharton resolved to take the pie to the
shop herself. She ordered one man to
harness and bring out the horses and
the other to mount and ride behind, and
thus the errand was done with all honor
and ceremony. Then in due time the
coachman was ordered to put to sec
ond time and the footman to mount be-
hind, and Mrs. Wharton brought back
the pie in the same dignified state.
"Now," said the lady to the coach
man, "you have kept Your place, which
is to drive, and you yours, to the foot.

to Lift Bnttleship Eight Feet.
"Velocity and pressure, explained
the powder mill superintendent, "are
the two main requisites in proving pow
der. The government is very specific in
its contracts. 1t demands that when
fired under service conditions in the gun
for which it is intended powder must
give to the projectile muzzle velocity
of at least a certain number of feet per
second without producing pressure of
more than a certain number of tons to
the square inch. For modern guns the
velocity required varies from 1000 to
2, 300 feet in second, and the pressure
is not allowed to exceed Is tons to the
square inch. In some of our guns of the
present day the amount of energy stored
up i'll the powder charge is SO tremen-
dous as to be almost incredible. The
limit of energy upon the projectile can
not be estimated, SO vast are the posi-
bilities.
''For example, may cite the Ore
CONS IL inch rifles. Five hundred and
fifty pounds of powder in these guns
impart to an /, 100 pound shot velocity
of 2, 100 feet per second, and the energy
of the projectile is nearly "a, 900 foot

such vessel as the Oregon eight feet

Continuous Steel Pine.

The West Australian government has
taken contract to lay nearly $50 miles
of water pipe of 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
