''Trial by Jury" is impossible of out
landers by outlanders, as is fact in
this country, or any other country. The
Beers were their jurors, and as men Of
integrity and sense of right, will COM
pare favorably with any other jurors in
the world.
"Education:' You say no English is
taught in the Transvaal. The same
occurs in Natal where no Dutch is
taught, though the Dutch predominant
in that English possession. English is
taught in the Transvaal, in every part
of it few hours week, and the Beers
show more liberality in this respect
than the English in Natal. No foreign
Language is taught in any country al
the expense Of the people, and the
Transvaal is more liberal than the
United States in rgard to its foreign
population, in teaching different
Language than its own. This issue o.
langugage is an unwarranted one
which only big country dares to pro
pose to small one.

Historic Eictiana.

Was there ever such breaker of his
toric idols as the scientist? The learned
archaeologist. DR.. o. Montellus. boldly de-
clares that such persons as Romulus and
Remus never existed. According to the
generally accepted calculation of the his
torian Varrone. Rome was founded in
the eighth century 3. c., and the histo-
ries state that it was on April q, 753 B.
c.. when the vision inspired shepherd
Romuus laid the first stone on the Faia-
tine of the Eternal City of the Seven
Hills. That date would make Rome
1852 years old. But DIR. Montellus pro-
duces documents to prove that the an
cient mistress of the world existed long
before that. there being remains of the
ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth centu-
ries before the Christian era. The con-
clusion is that Rome is 3.1O0 years old,
that Romulus and his brother never ex-
listed and that the wolf kept in the cage
on the top of the Capitoline hill as q
confirmation Of the legend is nothing but
an impostor.

jerks his front leg off the grouud and
he goes down ina heap. Two or three

Nine shepherds died in Teton county,
Montana, during the recent blizzard
there, and the recovery of their bodies
disclosed the fact that they struggled
to the last to keep their f1ocks together
and preserve them. This is kind of
heroism which does not win medals and
national applause, but it is fully as
noble as the valor of the battlefield

to ST. Paul.
The Astor battery left six of it's men

The successful young lady is Miss

sorry for the little fellow, because he
worked so hard for the cake and was so
thoroughly handicapped by his partner.
Both the little fellows were boys and
from the Reform school. "She" was as
small as &c." but he had more knowl-
edge about cake walking in his little
finger than "she'' had in her entire
body. The expression on his ebony fea-
lures was painful to behold as he
watched his partner make a ridiculous
attempt to get the proper motion of the
walk and saw his chances for a prize
fading as his partners attempt pro-
crossed.
The girl in red and the girl in white
slippers were more pretentiously gotten
up than any of the other competitors.
One girl wore a discarded party dress
and another an under garment shroud-
ed in gauze, with hosiery loud enough
to be heard at the door of the theater.
Her actions were comical, and if she
had a more competent partner might
have succeeded in taking one of the pri-
yes.

General Gomez had twofold purpose in

Gently unearthed plot against the re-

Paul Deroulede and his colleagues
much more serious. Wholesale arrests
are looked for at the conclusion of the
Dreyfus trial. The plot was we'll fin

ments seized include a number of the

Deroulede which leave no doubt of the

and a number of clericals. The trial
