their checks are sold al a reduced price

spelling this little game. Nothing
could be more simple and effectual.
Instead of issuing checks they mark the

1000 horses and raises all of these upon
its own stock farms. The company is
exceptionally good to its employees, and,
in fact, to all of the people of Kimber-
ley. AZ a sample of this kindness the
company owns immense ice machines
and sells ice to anyone wishing it for
one-half cent per pound, which is ex-
ceedingly low when compared with the
four cents per pound it is necessary to
pay in Cape Town. For the benefit of
it's employees the company has built the
village of Kenilworth, composed Of pref
~ cottage homes, and these are rented
for merely nominal sum, with water
and light free of all charge.
The diamond mines in which the
Beers could cause such havoc with few
blasts of high explosives are at their
lowest levels 612 feet deep. From this
great depth is obtainable blue rock
from which the diamonds are obtained
by means of large and expensive ma
chinery. The value of these mines may
be imagined when il is known that out
of 100000 tons of this rock. which
seems almost inexhaustable. is obtained
threefourths of ton of diamonds. The
average annual output of these mines
IS valued close to $25,000,00O. A weeks
occupancy of the diamond mines at
Kimberley would provide the Beers with
sufficient financial means to meet the
expenses of the present war with Eng
land.

surprise that would only add TO the
disappointment should one make this
journey from Durham 10 johannesburg
and then a second from Cape Town to
Kimberley. The railroad accommoda-
tons are of the crudest. the speed mo-

Kimberley as one sees it to-day is the
result of the combination of the dia-
mond interests when Cecil Rhodes or
glnizcd the De Beers company. The
wealth Of that company can hardly be
estimated. The diamonds at Kimberley
are found in the crater of ar extinct
volcano. and the De Beers company
owns practically all of this valuable ter
ritory. In its employ are coo natives
and 25,000 whites. In and around the
