occurrence and too sensational to have
passed from the memory of readers.
The first battle of the Jameson raid
occurred at Krugersdorp on Jan. l, 1896:
the second at Doornkop the day follow
ing, when Jameson's already defeated
raiders were all captured by the Beers.
President Kruger turned over the raid
ers to the British Government. which
sentenced Jameson to fifteen months in
jail and some Of his officers to shorter
terms, after making them the heroes of
London for weeks.
Kruger arrested hundreds Of Outland-
ers in johannesburg on the charge Of
treason, and upon trial four were senteac-
ed to death. Among the latter was the
American mining expert, John HAYS
Hammond, but their sentences were COM
muted to fine and Imprisonment. Both
the Beers and the British were fighting
mad, and everyone expected war would
follow between them, but it was averted
IN curious manner.
Emperor William of Germany sent a
cable message Of sympathy to President
Kruger and the enfant terrible Of the
FAMILY OF nations by this characteristic
act changed the whole situation. England
was so mad at William that for time
she forgot or ignored Kruger. She as
sembled such feet of war vessels as
has never before In the history of the
world prepared for war-and William
sang softly.

that then the Beers were actually and
not merely nominally subjects of Great
Britain. The English rule was autocrat-
ic, and the Boer idea about slaves and
land holding fitted so little with the Eng
lish IDEAS that soon the Beers had two
great grievances against their rulers.
The Dutch French coIonists quarreled
with the English continually, and num-
bers on them "treked" or tracked north

first settlements were in Natal, but from
there also the English drove them, and

BY this time British, Americans, Ger

the Beers, but their thrift did not de-
