ANGLGGERNAN COMPACT.
CONTROL OF SOUTH AFRICA GOES
TO GREAT BRITAIN.
A Big Deal Which Puts an End to the
Aspirations of the Transvaal Re
public.

LONDON, September 6.-The terms
of the Anglo-German agreement,
which is the pricipal topic of the day
here, are stated upon good authority
to be in the main as follows:
The first point of agreement is that
Germany and England have come to
complete understanding on all At
rican questions.
In February, 1897, Germany made
a formal claim upon Lord Kimberly,
then British foreign secretary, for
the maintenance of the status quo of
South Africa, the special object being
to protect the Transvaal from British
control.
Germany now withdraws absolute
ly from that claim, and gives Great
Britain complete free hand in South
Africa. The German and British min
listers further agree to give a joint
government guarantee of loan to
Portugal to enable her to meet the
award of the Swiss arbitrator regard
ing the Delagoa railway.
The concessionaries being largely
American, the United States and the
British governments have long been
jointly pressing for this compensa-
ton.
The Transvaal thereby becomes an
enclave, and Kruger loses his only
chance of an Independent outlet to
the sea.
The agreement further provides that
all the steps necessary for England's
acquisition by amicable arrangement
with Portugal for all of Mozambique
shall receive the assent of Germany.
Germany also agrees to recognize
the permanence of the British occu-
patton of Egypt when next year Eng
land will ask Europe for curtail-
ment of the jurisdiction of mixed tri-
bunals.
AS quid quo Germany secures
settlement of the frontier of Togo
land. The neutral zone called Dagom-
baland between Ashantiland and To-
go land is to be divided, giving Ger
many the bulk of the zone. The river
White Volta is, as far as possible, to
become the dividing line between the
German and British sections.
Further the British ministry has
agreed to assent under certain condi-
lions to the arrangements which the
German emperor expects to make with
the sultan during his approaching Wis
it to the Holy Land, to facilitate Ger
man colonization in Asia Minor. These
are the important features of the
agreement, some of which must be
made public when the Portugal loan
is announced. But behind this under
standing, of which the public soon
will have the official information,
there is believed to be a secret agree
ment giving Germany more in the ma
ture of a quid pro quo.
The statement made public here to-
day that England and Germany also
have agreed upon the joint creation of
railway through the German sphere
of Shantung in China to the British
sphere of the Yangtse.

U AND l.
a Well Pleased Audience at Last
Nights Show.

The laughing musical farce ~ and
l." if it dld not fill the Opera House
last night at least pleased a fairly
good attendance. The company al
though not as well balanced as it
might be, has some capable people in
it, and they were cast where they
could do the most good.
Robert Ellis carried the house by
storm with his first solo. He has a
splendid voice, full and resonant, a
good presence and all the qualities
that come with experience. His recall
came from every part of the house,
and was as generously applauded as
his first song had been.
The comedians, James f. Post, r.
ish, and Fred Gardner, German, were
the life of the play. Both are capable
They can sing. They can dance. They
have enough of the acrobatic for the
parts, and when they occupy the stage
there is not a dull moment.
Enough local coloring was introduce
ed into the comedy to make at catchy.
Hilo and the City of Columbia came
in for their share of good natured
bandiage.
The picture machine met with some
kind of an accident which prevented
it's working well, and SO what was eX-
pected to be a very pleasing feature
of the third act was cut out.
The company will not give a matt
nee performance Saturday afternoon
as has been advertised on account of
the Regatta Day races. But the per-
Torrance Saturday evening with the
benefit of the rehearsals that will be
had between now and then ought to
be worth crowded house.

The Guava, like the Mango,
a fruit which furnishes food
for many a people throughout
all tropical countries, possesses
medicinal virtues which are
certainly beneficial. A fam

on the subject, stated that the
Almighty might have made a
better fruit, but if so it had

Within our shores we grow

the name is sufficient to insure
the endorsement of most all

Dehornins Cattle.

Dehorning cattle has been extensively
practiced in many parts of the country.
In the dairy sections, the need and adj
vantages of dehorning are not as well I'M
derstood as on the ranges where cattle
run together in large herds.
The subject is attracting attention just
at present and the bulletin on dehorning
now being distributed by the Maine Ag-
riculture Experiment Station will be read
with unusual interest
The following conclusions regarding de-
horning are taken from the bulletin: De
horning is TO be recommended because de-
horned cattle are more easily cared for
than those with horns. and because de-
horned cattle enjoy life better. "A great
deal of suffering is prevented by the re-
moval of horns.p To dehorn mature ami
mails, clippers should be used that will
remove the horn perfectly at a single
stroke and in a moment of time.
When it is skillfully performed animals
do not give evidence OF great suffering
as an effect of dehorning. The tissues in
jured in dehorning are not very wen sup
piled with nerves, and they are quickly
cut through. Good evidence that dehorn-
ing is not very Painful is the fact that
cattle will resume feeding Immediately
after being operated on, and the yield of
milk cows is not perceptibly affected
Compared with castration Of colts and
calves dehorning may be considered pain
less. Those Who are familiar with the
operation of dehornlng and the results
of it are its most enthusiastic advocates.
In the past, efforts have frequently been
made to prevent the practice of dehorning
on the ground. that it caused needless
pain. i would seem to us that efforts
can now better be expended by endeavor-
ing 10 have the last relic of a horn remov-
ed from our domestic cattle, who ceased
to need them when they came under the
protection of man.
Horns may sometimes be ornamental
but IL is evident that they are usually use
,ess, expensive and dangerous luxuries.,
The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1898-04-11

The backbone of all fruit manures has
been truly said TO be potash, says an orch
ardist in Farmer and Fruit Grower. 1t
gives color and solidity and good flavor to
all kinds of fruits. At least, these charac-
tiers are found TO invariably follow the use
or presence of potash in the soil. It's action
upon all parts of the tree, plant or vine is
highly beneficial. 1t seems to give the
whole structure an appearance of vigor,
productiveness, stability and beauty. We
may not know just how it acts upon the
plant tree or fruit to make them vigorous
beautiful or well-favored, but that il does
1t we do certainly know. 1t is like meat to
the hungry day-laborer, like bread to the
nursing mother, or like pure air and free
dom to the humming bird. Strength, pro
ductiveness and beauty seem to follow its
application to the soil.
There are in many soils, deposited by ma
ture, quantities sufficient to last for many
successive crops, but the available amounts
will become exhausted in time, and then
we must resort to means of replenishing
cultivation and deep-rooted plants like
red clover, will by degrees make available
or unlock the stores of nature by dissoV-
ing and bringing from the sub-soil that
which was otherwise unavailable Water
does Its part of the work too In a dry soil
or a droughty season it is impossible for
the potash, or for that matter for any 9TH
er manurial elements to become soluble
and in condition to be absorbed by the
rootlets. They are as powerless to avail
themselves of the food within their reach
as horse would be to eat the food in his
box when he was muzzled
As to the sources of potash, aside from
that which may be had in wood ashes.
and in stable and farm manures, they are
all found in the several forms of German
potash salts. They are all soluble in wa
ter and quite available. What is known
as muriate of potash is perhaps the cheap
est form in which to buy potash As it
contains about so per cent. of actual pot
ash, and is therefore much more concan-
trated and less bulky and weighty to han
die, there is a decided saving. Sulpha.e of
