The good old game of town who,p
seems to have fallen into disfavor, or
to have been forgotten. We have all
played hare aud hounds. But have
you over played town hoop? This is
the way we did it: In the first place
we all met at some special point-say
the old town hall, aud our route was
carefully mapped out b from the town
hall to certain lane, up the lane to
the dead elm, from the elm to brook
probably a mile away, and 40 on, but
our last point had to be the place from
which we started; also each stopping
point was carefully noted.
After the chased and chasers were
selected we set oil, giving the former
to the first stopping place before the
chasers started after them. When
they reached this point they were COM
PEELED to whoor, and thereafter at
each OF the stopping places along the
route determined upon before the
start. They could hide within one
yard each side OF the route, but no
more, AMI they were compelled to
keep within bounds.
If any fell by the waysile or were
caught they we're made captives, and
were made to go under the paddle, that
well known form of boy punishment
Those who escaped could each choose
one of the pursuers, who on his part
was then compelled to undergo the
same punishment Sometimes we
would run for miles and miles, and
great would be the rejoicing of the
paddlers when the race was over and
they who had lost were compelled to
submit to the caresses of their con-
querors. New York Herald.

To understand the Transvaal situa-
tion thoroughly one must know that
every British subject in the Transvaal
considers that every inch of Transvaal
soil is rightfully the property of the
British nation, and that the Beers are
merely interlopers, with no rights
that are deserving the respect of an
Englishman. They regard the Beers
as SO many ignorant, uncleanly saw
ages, who do not know how to gov ern
themselves, much less others. Every
Englishman in the gold-fields, or in
any other part Of the republic, still

A Rird,s Nraiin sehnnl.

A country school was surprised one
morning by the announcement from n
Jenny Wren that she meant to neigh
Dor with them. One shutter chanced
to be closed, and she hoped through
broken slat with a twig in her mouth.
After turning her head from side to
side, and eyeing the entire school
through the glass, she decided that
that window sill was the very pace
she wanted for her nest. For her to
decide was TO act, and within two
weeks Jenny was sitting on nest full
of eggs. She became the pet of the
happy school. Under the teachers
good guidance, they scattered crumbs
upon the windowledge, SO that her
daily bread came without much
toll. OF course, the shutter was
never moved; but, as the pleasant
acquaintance heightened and the
warmer days came on, the window was
raised, and Jenny looked upon the
bright faces with full content. When
the little birds were all Matched -one,
two, three, four-it was hard TO tell
which was the prouder, the mother
wren or the school. When feeding
time came, that nest full of mouths
was the centre of interest. Teacher
and pupils were helped in their work
by the nearness of this happy family.

Krager, who was member of the
London commission, has asserted,
gith characteristic vehemence on sew
ral occasions, that England has no
ght to interfere in the Transvaal's
pfivate affairs, and that such inter-
erence will not be tolerated.
The British Colonial Secretary,
spurred or by Cecil J. Rhodes, Eng
lands empire-maker in South Africa,
has been persistently trying to extend
his authority so that the entire law
making power Of the Boer Volksraad
should be under his Jurisdiction and
control. He has demanded that all
laws and treaties, whether relating to
the internal or external interests of
the republic, shall be referred to him
for his approval before operative, and
he has asked that old laws which are
not favorable to English interests in
the Transvasl shall be repealed. This
interference has naturally been pro-
vocative of much ill-feeling not only

them materially in driving out the
wild beasts, conquering the savages,
settling the country, discovering an l
developing the diamond fields, the
English suddenly discovered that they
had a claim to this far away country.
He was only plain Boer, or farmer,
when his fellow subjects determined
to resist the British. In 1881, at the
head of handful of Dutch farmers,
he met the British army at Maiuba
Hill and put it to flight after great
slaughter. This secured liberty for
the Beers, and they accordingly look
upon General Joubert, now Vice.

confident that he can do IL again. As
commander-in-chief of the Beers he is
the man who may have the task of try
ing to whip the English forces in bat
tie. General Joubert is an American,
having been born in Uniontown,
Penn, in 1S41, and few men have had
a more picturesque career or know as
much about the relation of the Trans
vaal to the Swaizes. When fourteen
years of age he left this country and
went to Holland. His taste for war
was always keen, and when the rebel
lion broke out he came to this country
and served in the navy under Admir-
al Dupont. Later he became captain
of n colored company under General
Weitzel. After the war he returned
to Holland, and later went to South

with the Turks in the war between
Turkey and Greece lends additional
confirmation to the report.
In the opinion of many well-posted
American officers, the Beers are in
far better shape, to-day, for war than
is generally supposed. A war be-
tween the Beers and English will
mean, IT is said in official circles here,
a much stouter affair than Great
Britain has had to deal with in tho
