THE BoER SIDE.
Paui Kruger, President of the south Afri.
can Republic, Tells what is Causing
the trouble.

NEW YORK, Sept Sin response to
message asking the real cause of the
present trouble between Great Britain
aud the South African republic, Presi-
dent Paul Kruger replies as follows:
Il gladly accede to your request to
put the Boer side before the American
public The present agitation against
this republic emanates partly from a
certain section of British residents to
whom the existence of the republic,
which embraces the most fourishing
parts of South Africa, is a standing
eye sore and who suffer from the pre-
vailing jingo mania, partly also from
mining capitalists who, not content
with having here the best mining laws
in the world, wish also to have COM
plete control of all legislation and ad-
ministration.
"The franchise voting question was
taken up by England because it was
thought the republic would not yield
on that point. Now that the altered
franchise does not materially differ
from the American-it is in many re-
spects easier--the agitation has be-
come worse. The object clearly is the
destruction of our republic and the
complete control of the richest mines in
the world.
THE press, entirely controlled by
capitalists, spreads unprecedented mis-
representations and prejudice through
out the world against the Boer repub-
lie.
"We are determined to defend to the
utmost the freedom and self-govern-
ment for which our people have shed
blood in every part of South Africa.
Though we have no such powerful
friends as you proved to Venezuela
and to other republics, we haye strong
faith that the cause of freedom and re-
publicanism will triumph in the end"

SEWER RATS
Attack a Man in The Basement of

Finished Him.

Chicago, April S.-An army of sewer
rats, fierce and desperate, attacked
Frank Morgan, a ledger in the South
Cnlcago avenue police station, tonight,
and lacerated him terribly before he
could be rescued. Morgan applied at
the station early in the evening Tor a
pace 10 sleep, saying he was out OF en-
ployment and had no money, and he
was placed in the dodgers part Of the
basement. Some time after, while Nor
gan was doing in the gloom of the
basement, he felt something bite him
on the hand. Startled, he stretched
out his hand and caught d rat. The
animal squealed and, as if that were a
signal for a combined attack, a horde
of enormous rats swept upon him, Bit
ing him in the arms and legs and sink
ing their sharp teeth into his skalp.
Morgan screamed with terror and pain.
His cries were heard in the police head
quarters above, and several policemen
rushed down stairs. They found Nor
gan half-unconscious and with the big
gray rodents chnging TO all parts of his
body. Nearly a dozen OF them were
h.4,eA by the policemen. One Of en-
ormous size sunk his teeth into Nor
gan's scalp so tightly that it had to be
killed before it could be torn loose.
Morgan will recover, unless blood
poisoning sets in.

SEVRES VASES.
4 Beautiful Pair Presented to the
United States Government by the
Government of France.

WASHINGTON, April 8.-A notable
ceremony occurred at the blue room OF
the executive mansion at IL O'Clock to-
day when the French ambassador, NJ
Cambon, presented to the government
and the American people as represent
ed through President Mckinley, two
magnificent Sevres vases from the
French National Pottery, at Sevres. Inc
gift was from the last President OF the
French republic, Felix Faure, and COM
memorated the opening OF the new
Franco-American cable on Aug st l!th
last, when President Mckinley and
President Faure exchanged the first
message over the new line between the
White House and the Palaise OF the
Elysee. The vases and pedestals stand
eight feet high, and are OF deep blue,
characteristic of the finest Sevres ware
as we'll as in happy accord with the
prevailing colors of the blue room.
The presentation was made the occa-
sion for a happy exchange of interna-
tional greetings. NJ. CambOn making
an address and the President respond
ing. NJ Cambon was accompanied by
the entire staff of the. embassy, includ-
luS NJ. l. ni6Ddul, oloIS A'oNoA' -
Major De Grandprey and Lieut.. De
Aramond and NJ. Lurienne, Of the
French Cable Company. The President
was accompanied by Secretary Hay and
some of the officials of the household.
The vases had already been placed in
position, one on either side of the large
window looking toward the Potomac.
They far exceed in elegance anything
in the way of porcelain hitherto
brought to the White House.
The Sevres factory is a government
institution situated near Paris on the
banks of the Seine, half way between
Paris and Versailles. It was created
by Louis XIV. because the soil furnish
ed a porcelain clay entirely unique in
the making of fine articles Ever since
the time of Louis XIV. the factory mas
been protected by French rulers. Inc
most prominent artists in France, both
painters and sculptors, have been at
tached to this factory. There is prob
ably not a royal palace in Europe that
does not possess one or more celebrated
specimens of the Sevres ware such as
vases or table services, and the White
House itself possesses Sevres service
which always appears at the state dim
ners given by the President.
The vases will now remain a perma
nent possession of the White House
along with several other notable dec
oraJions given by foreign governments.
If they had been given personally to
President Mckinley it would nave re-
CURED an act of Congress for their ac-
ceDtanCp but as a gift to the q American
government and people, no special act
is required and they remain one OF the
fixed possession of the White House.

To Archbishop Irsland-A Kind Word for
American Catholics-His Health.


Rome, April S.-Further particulars
regarding the farewell audience ac-
corded Archbishop Ireland by the Pope
on Wednesday last, show that it lasted
half an hour and was of a most cordial
nature throughout. The pontif strove
to prove MS great esteem of the arch
bishop and the friendly feeling he had
for him. He congratulated the arch
bishop upon having been chosen by the
French episcopate to preach the pam
egyric of Joan of Arc on May Z. and
said, smiling sadly: Il hope TO see
you again, but if God takes me before
your return. remember l have always
felt fatherly love and interest in your
self and all American Catholics. 10
whom / send my blessing"
Both the Pope and Archbishop Ire
land were greatly effected.
London, April 9.-The Rome cores
pendent of the Daily Mail says:
While the Pope's health has i'm
proved, few deny that his life is slowly
ebbing away. Cardinal Parochi, bishop
of Porto, and Santa Ruflna and Vicar
General of His Holiness, in an inter-
view says that in spite of the advice of
his physicians, the Pope, il his strength
will permit, will receive the sacred col
lege on Tuesday and receive the con-
gratulations of that body upon the an
niversary of his coronation. He even

New York, April S.-Despite evidence
on the part of the police, facts became
public to-day which make it appear
that the fire which yesterday destroyed
persons was of incendiary origin. 1t
has transpired that few hours before
the flames were seen, policeman was
sent for from the Andrews house, and
was mysteriously dismissed by SER
want, who said he was not wanted. Let
tiers threatening the lives of the An
drews family and the children OF Mrs.
ST. John, were found.
1t is believed that the motive for in
cendiarism was revenge, and that the
affair arose out of a quarrel among the
servants. Foley, the butler in the An
drews family, is under surveillance, and
the police are hard at work inyestigat-
ing the clues, which chiefly rest upon
the anonymous letters. Mary Flan-
agan, the dead maid servant. seems to
have been a central figure in this al
legged plot and the chief object of the
supposed perpetrators hate.
The police to-day gave out three
scurrilous, threatening anonymous let
tiers which had been sent to members
of the Andrews household. ! One was
addressed to the servant. Mary Flana-
gan. The letters made charges against
Mary Flanagan and the butler.
In letter addressed to Mrs. st. John
the writer said: Il hope you and Mrs.
Andrews don't think for one moment
that | am reconciled or pacified with
Mary Flanagan, for, indeed, l am not,
and what is further, | will not be until
| get my revenge. | feel that | have
given warning enough and | am going
to fix her for life, and because you and
Mrs. Andrews did not give heed to the
warning, I'm going to fix you, too. I'm
going to make some one throw some
thing in your nurses and children's
faces that will disfgure them and eat
all the flesh off the bone. This | will
do for spite, because you did not let
Mary go, as | told you to. You had
just as well let her go first as last.
You will have no girl alive when l get
through with her"
