Miss Alice Rhodes has been named
by both Boer and English press "the
most interesting woman in Africa. "
The Boer press is extremely loyal to
Olive Schrelner, novelist and Boer
champion, but it deems Miss Rhodes
the most interesting because the most
eccentric.
Cecil Rhodes is a woman hater.
His sister, Miss Alice Rhodes, is an
equally ardent man hater. She has
had many offers, but has refused them
all. and the reason she has given is
that she ''hates the whole tribe OF
men,"
Her appearance is decidedly mascu-
line. Her face is as typically forid
as that of the English squire. She
has a voice to match her face and
walk. She has masculine habit OF
sitting with feet wide apart.
She lives at Groat Schur, a beauti-
full country seat near the city. She
has private geological garden in
which she has collected specimens of
nearly every wild animal in South
Africa. She is versed in politics and
statecraft more thoroughly than many
members of the Colonial Office. She
dislikes the Beers and hates native
Africans.

tall chimney of some manufactory on

SHE WAS A BRAVE GIRL.
Kept Her Presence of Mind when At
tackled by an Alligator.

ny 2Ailitsdlors
Some days ago a little girl. daugh-
ter of Mrs. Fields, living on Lake Glib
son, near Lakeland, Fla, jumped of
the wharf on the lake to take a swim.
She is an expert swimmer, but had
hardly touched the water before she
was seized by the leg, between the
knee and ankle, by an alligator. She
was pulled under the water by the sat-
rian, but managed to break away ana
started hastily toward the shore, only
a few yards distant. The gator again
came to the attack, this time seizing
her in the fieshy part of the side be-
tween the ribs and hip. The little one
was plucky, however and managed to
again break away from the cruel jaws,
this time reaching the shore, the ga
tor following until she was on dry
land; then he disappeared from view.
The girl never lost her presence of
mind, which probably was the reason
of her escaping alive. She gives a very
graphic description of the dangerous
encounter, and has two very ugly
wounds to vouch for her story. She
says she could not see the entire length
of the beast, but from what she could
see would judge it to have been only
about five feet Tonga small gator to
attack a person. The girl is IA years
of age.-Baltimore Sun
