Lucille Milford gave a party last
evening, from five to eight, to a

The original purpose was to en-

from coming, but not so; that i'm

The South African CoIonizrr Says United

Rhodes, who. in the eyes of most Eng

perialistic policy, holds views concern
ing the future of the United States
even more far-reaching than most
American imperialists have preached.
Mr.. Rhodes, in conversation on board
the steamer Hupshurg, on the Medi-
terranenn, predicted most confidently
that within a century the United
states would have advanced the
work begun in the evacuation
% Cuba until it controlled all
the American hemisphere ex-
cept Canada Mr.. Rhodes expressed
admiration for the work already done
in Cuba and predicted that it would
be carried on in the Philippines. The
United States he considered one of
the nations best equipped for colonial
ton and repeatedly exclaimed: You
are taking to it like mothers milk.
apparently with the greatest delight
It IS the duty of civilized nations
to take charge of the barbarians and
give them a white mans government"
he said. The United States is one of
the great powers and cannot escape
this duty" He did not believe that
the United States would ever with
draw its authority from Cuba and
thought the manner in which Spain
had been evieted from her colonies and
The nited States had taken posses
