HI BOSTON WOMAN.
h Thoroughly Inculcates and n
Illustrates the True Principles
OF Freedom. VI

Boston does not develop Us character
through the medium Of IFS ~aristocracy
alone, writes Margaret Allston in La
dies Home Journal. 1t il the most
Democratic city in America, IL not in the
world, II is both the cradle and nurse
OF independence. Evidences of these
truths were set forth in the costumes Of
the feminine mass in evidence at the
first symphony rehearsal | attended.
All Of fashionable Boston was present,
and still the audience did not look fash
ionable from n metropolitan stand
point. There were so many women!
II you could hear the plant Of that ex-
~clamation you would understand at
once how oppressive In its %preponder-
ance is the femininity Of Boston, "Wom-
an" is stamped on every inch Of MAssa
chusetts ground, (There can be even
too much Of a good thing.) She IS as
inevitable as the seasons. She is more
difficult to escape than the Mormon eye,
She inculcates and illustrates the prin-
ciples Of freedom all the way from her
emancipation creed to the shape Of her
waist and the length Of her stride when
she walks.

%sHopLIFTING IN R

The ways of women shoplifters are
thus described in a foreign journal:
AT the Bon Marche and the Louvre,
in Paris, n regular allowance is made
for shoplifting in the debtor and cred
itor accounts; the daily sum thus reg
istered is surprisingly high. Besides
amateur kleptomaniacs, female thieves
make a continual raid on the counters,
and, Notwithstanding the vigilance OF
the inspectors, they manage 10 reap q
good harvest. These women usually
wear skirts as full as fashion will allow,
With very deep and capacious pockets;
they also e shoes, not boots, and
have stockings cut oil, SO as to leave the
toes free.
They press close 10 the counter, where
a rapid motion Of 1.-THE elbow, favored by
some dangling fringe, catches the Gov
eted article and throws IL down. Then,
quickly, the foot slips out OF the shoe,
and the toes, exercised 10y long practice,
draw the lace. or whatever IL may be,
under the long skirt, where it remains
hidden till an opportunity occurs OF
quickly secreting it in the pocket"

toria which assigned to her majesty
and to the British resident certain spe-

govern the country without interfer-

Third - Mr. Chamberlain's own
words a few months after the Jane
son raid in 1896. To go to war with
President Kruger TO enforce upon
him reforms in the internal affairs of
his state, il which secretaries of state,
standing III their places, have repudi-
ated all right of INTERCHANGEABLE
would be course OF action which
would be immoral"
When Mr.. Chamberlain took up with
the TransvaIl government in October,
1897, the matter of franchise reforms
ana the other points of difference, lie
based his representations not upon the
moral ground, but upon the legal right
OF Great Britain to interfere in the
Transvaars internal affairs.
The progress of the negotiations has
revealed more and more clearly Great
Britain's determination to insist upon
the convention Of 1881, which the
Transvaal government has regarded
and continues to regard as superseded
by the convention of 1854. The Trans
walls disposition to yield all that
Great Britain asked in the matter of
internal reforms has been clear. but
that yielding has been based firmly
upon Great Britain's abandonment OF
her claims to a legal right to internal
interference.
Finally. in August, Great Britain be-
gan to mass troops in South Africa.
The Transvaal asked her why. She
replied, through Sir Alfred Miner,
These troops are here in order to pro-
tect British interests and make pro-
vision against eventualities." And on
Sept. 10 the British government sent a
note to the Orange Free State volun-
tarily explaining northward move
ments OF large bodies of British troops:
THE movement is in no way directed
against the Free State. -" d" The i'm
perial government is still hopeful of
a friendly settlement of the differences
which have arisen between them and
the Transvaal. But II this hope should
unfortunately be disappointed" etc.
AS early as Aug. 90 Mr. Chamberlain
said in a public address. The issues
OF peace and OF war are in the hands
OF President Kruger and of his ad-
visers.'
On Aug. 81 the Transvaal offered
Great Britain more than she had ask
ed. but insisted that Great Britain
must accompany acceptance of the
offer with n definite agreement never
again TO raise the abrogated conven-
ton of 1881, but always thereafter 10
stick to the convention of 1884.
That is. the Transvaal government
insisted that Great Britain should
accept the concessions as the volun-
tary act OF an independent state
and not as the yielding to n legal right.
formal admission by tie Transvaal
republic that il is not an independent
state. Mr.. Chamberlain's reply reas-
serts Great Britain's claim in this
language: The imperial government
has been compelled by the action of
the government of the South African
Republic (the TransvaaD. which has
asserted the right Of the republic to be
a sovereign international state, abso-

lutely to deny and repudiate this

lulelS 10 OenS dA0 ASPuoAotS eAS
claim
These facts make it clear:
First-That Great Britain, through
Mr.. Chamberlain, revived a claim
which she had formally abrogated in
1SS4-a denial of the independence OF
the Transvaal republic.
Second-That the real difference be-
tween Great Britain and the Transvaal
was not about the franchise, but about
this matter of independence
Third.-That Great Britain not only
threatened war, not only prepared to
make war TO enforce her claim to SOW
ereignty over the Transvaal and TO the
right of interference in its internal af-
fairs, but also in so many words an
nounced that war was the only alter
native to accepting her commands.
Fourth-That the Transvaal reput-
lie was prepared to agree to almost
any terms Great Britain might COM
mand. short of the abandonment Of its
existence as an independent state.
Finally, it may be said that the
Transvaal republic again and again
offered to submit any and all points in
dispute to impartial arbitration, and
Great Britain steadily refused
The London Speaker in its last issue
puts the matter thus:

ence In Natal. south Africa.

South African papers just received
in London relate that Mr.. Osmond
Tearle had a curious experience while
playing Hamlet" at Durham, Natal,
recently.
Suddenly, during Hamlet's "nunnery
scene" with Ophelia. the electric
lights in the theater went out. and it
and the whole town were in darkness.
Quick as thought Mr.. Leonard Rayne,
who was playing Polonius. seized
candle and. coming down front, as
sured the audience that they had moth
ing 10 fear and that he hoped the light
would be presently restored.
AS matter OF fact, il was not until
the end OF the play that the light which
had so suddenly gone out was as sud-
denly switched on again Candles con-
sequently had to be resorted TO for
footlights. which quite intensified the
'funereaI character of the graveyard
scene.

TESTING A CRUISERS ROLL.
Important Experiments on the New
Orleans In Brooklyn Navy Yard.

Important Experiments on the New
Orleans In Brooklyn Navy Yard.
Important tests of the stability of
cruiser of the United States navy were
made recently by the naval constructor
at the Brooklyn navy yard. There was
a crowd of interested spectators at
dock No. 3, all bent upon witnessing
this official decision as to whether the
New Orleans would prove seaworthy.
1t is an odd fact about the New Or
leans that she was bought from the
government of Brazil by this govern
ment in order to prevent her coming
into the possession of the government
of Spain. This transaction was follow
ed by her passage northward without
damage in the last war.
Tie serious charge has been brought
against the New Orleans that she rolls
too much, says the New York Press.
The cruiser was tested in the Brooklyn
dock by floating and by experiments
with weights affecting her draft. One
of these weights was an anvil weighing
$1,000 pounds. This burden caused
the cruiser to list six inches to star
board when placed upon that side. An
other test caused a list to port of eight
inches. Yet another weight of 1850
pounds was placed on board, and this
caused q list so serious as to alarm
naval experts as to the safety of the
vessel.
AS this ship was expected to carry
many stores, as well as many men to
Manila. further tests of her seaworthi-
ness will be made. The New Orleans
has just come out of drydock and her
engines are still under repair.

New zeaInnder's Profitable Patent.

\ New Zealander has patented and is
marketing an invention for branding
stock without injuring the hide in
which raisers Of cattle in New Zealand
find an immense advantage, says the
Chicago Record. The new process uses
n chemical depilatory which perna-
nently destroys the hair. The destruc-
ton of part of the hide was one of the
bad features OF the old method, the
branding appearing on the best part of
the skin Gibson's patent will add 4
value of 8 or q cents at least TO every
hide TO which il is applied, and it is
needless TO add that in countries like
Australia and New Zealand, where mil
lions of cattle are raised every year.
such an advance in the price Of hides
exactly meets the desire of stock OWL
ers. The right for Australia alone has
just been disposed Of for $3.50, 600.

BRITAIN AND THE Beers
Real Issue Between England
and the TranSvaal.
QUESTION OF sUzERAIN RIGHTS.

Outline of the Two Contentious Upon
Which the Controversy Which Led
TO the Present War Is Based-What
the T'ransvnnI Quotes In Support of
Its Case.
The controversy between the British
and the Beers which has led to war is
based upon two irreconcilable conten-
tons, says the New York World. The
British contention is that Great Brit
ain Las suzerain rights over the Trans
vaal republic and therefore may legal
ly interfere in the internal affairs of
the republic. In support of this view
Mr.. Chamberlain quotes the conyen-
ton of 1881. which did undoubtedly
give Great Britain the right 10 inter-
fere in the internal affairs of the
Transvaal republic. He maintains that
that convention is still in force and
that the convention of 1884 is merely a
tention IS that Great Britain has no
suzerain rights over the Transvaal and
no right whatever to interfere in its
internal affairs. In support of the
case it quotes:
First-The official title OF the con-
yention of 1884, which is, "a conven-
ton in substitution for the convention
Of Aug. 3. 1881"
Second.-The words of Lord Derby,
who negotiated the convention of 1884
for the British, BY the omission Of
