Piet Joubert, commander-in-chief of
the Boer forces, is sixty-eight years
old, and in the Transvaal's history he
has borne a part scarcely less conspic-
o than that of President Kruger
himself. He has long been the mill
tary head of the nation-its most
noted fighter and tactician-and his ca
Teer in the field has been distinguished
by many successes. While commander
i~n-chief, as has been stated, he is still
subordinate to the Volksraad and the
president. When the Jameson raiders
were rushing upon Pretoria, Joubert
proposed to advance against them with
artillery. ooh no, Piet," said Dom
Paul. Don't you think that two hum
dred OF our farmers with their rifles
can stop two thousand ruineks (red
necks)?" The outcome justified his
confidence in the farmers"

Accident on the Omaha Road in
south X


Sioux Falls, s. D., Nov. p. - Word
reached here late last evening of an
accident on the Omaha railroad near
Humboldt. about twenty miles from
Sioux Falls. Several men were on n
handcar about a quarter of a mile out
of Humboldt when they discovered a
work train in charge of Conductor
higgins, backing down upon them, en-
route TO MontroSe. In the work train
We're a number of fiat airs, upon which
were a hundred or more workmen,
principally Italians. The men on the
handcar jumped of, leaving the q on
the track.
When the rapidly backing work
train struck the obstruction the force
of h collision threw four of the fiat
cars from the track and killed five Of
the workmen and injured many more.
Five or the injured are expected to die.
The injured Italians Immediately be-
came wildly excited, and, drawing
knives, made threatening demonstra-
tions toward the crew of the work
train, who, being greatly outnumbered
and fearing that their lives would be
taken by the excited mob, pulled away
from the scene of the accident. Five
doctors We're hurried to the scene of
the accident. A relief train sent from
here has returned, bringing five iHs
jured. One, a fifteen-year-old boy, died
en- route.

In the current number OF the Geo
graphical Journal DR.. Moreno gives an
account of Patagonia, which is a por-
tion of that vast area In South Amer
lea still unknown to geography, and
interesting because Of the rich prod
ucts, which it probably contains, and
its charming landscapes. 1t seems that
Patagonia does not merit the bad repu-
taticn as regards scenery which it has
had since Darwin and Fitzroy received
a disagreeable impression from the
portion they explored. The p~lateaus
of Arizona find their analogy in the
table lands OF Patagonia, and 1.-The
picturesque fjords and white noun
tains of Alaska seem to be a copy OF
the fjords and mountains Of Pata-
gonia." The analogy might be pushed
ever further, for 1t seems there is a
strange similarity between the ancient
customs and industries of the Alaskan
and Patagonian Indians.
