Afraid of Americans,

obtained at such place. One of the
Americans finally called for his check.
The waiter performed feat in mathe-
mates and learned that three times
three made II. The American found
fault with this system OF multiplica-
ton and stood up to protest. Instant
ly the girl who sold programmes threw
herself in front of him, and seized his
arm. "Please DON'T" she pleaded. "He
is a poor man; he has wife and fam
ily." The manager came running
"Wait, wait" he entreated. "Please
do not make any trouble. ] ask that
you do not shoot" Yielding to these
entreaties, the American (who carried
nothing more deadly than penknife)
spared the life of the trembling waiter,
who had made a run for the stairway.
There was another computation, and
it was decided that three times three
made nine, and then the ferocious
Americans departed, to the great relief
of the natives.

with bleeding from the mucous MEM

first 20 per cent. of the cases ended fa-
tally, which number afterward fell to
40 per cent. Though the epidemic is
nearly over, the cause of the disease
is unknown. Animals which have

the last reply. '-'
The rumor, however, fails to obtain
much credence, and is not taken as
IN any way mitigating the seriousness
Of the crisis.
The outlander press sees nothing
put war ahead and urges the Out.
anders to leave Immediately.
The London press is now inclined to
take the view that the recent action
on the part of the Beers does not make
war a certainty, though it does place
the British Cabinet in a position
where 1t must take steps so aggres-
slve that war or utter ignominious
submission will be the only alterna-
tives remaining to the Transvaal, and
Is by no means so persistent in urging
the government to move hastily, ex-
cept In the matter Of hurrying troops
to the probable scene of action. The
Pall Mall Gazette prints a despatch
from Cape Town which says:
The general impression is that the
Beers will at once take the initiative,
and an attack is expected at any hour.
Troops continue to leave Cape Town
for Kimberley and the North and the
first class cruiser Terrible, sailing
from Portsmouth for China, is re-
ported to have been ordered to 60 by
way Of Cape Town instead of Suez.
Nothing is yet known regarding the
definite date of the expected Cabinet
Council.
The British government is still
rushing troops to the Cape as rapidly
as possible, and the Cabinet has been
called for a council on the situation on
