PRESIDENT KRUGER,s SON.
He Is Charged With Having Sought
Trouble With Rrifons

LONDON, Aug. 5.-The Johannesburg
correspondent of the Times, who furnishes
evidence of the attempts of The Trans
Vaal government agents in the recent con-
splracy case to manufacture testimony
duplicating the British government and
the South African league, says:
President Kruger's son, who is the
head of the secret service department,
tried to induce one of the witnesses for
the prosecution to do his utmost to prove
the case to be one of conspiracy on the
part of the British government, as thai
would strengthen Kruger's case, as this
was on the eve of the Broemfontein coma
ference"

able to swim, chung to the boat until
nearly exhausted, and called for ..elp,
which was given him by a party of
campers, who heard his calls and res
cued him.
Mr.. Cole says he last saw Mr.. Hersey
swimming strong, fifty feet from the
boat, but the turning of the canoe and
the fog concealed him from further view.
Mr.. Cole called to him, but received no
reply, and nothing has since been seen
or heard of him. His coat was found in
the water about fifty feet from shore.
He evidently had taken it off while
swimming, but whether he reached shore
and became lost in the woods, lost his
bearings while swimming, in the fog, and
exhausted his strength or took a cramp,
is uncertain.
Searchers have been busily engaged
dragging the lake and securing the
woods all day, but to no avail up to IL
o'clock tonight
Mr.. Hersey and his wife arrived from
st. Paul Wednesday for a short outing
at the pretty summer cottage of Craw-
ford Livingston at the lake, ten miles
east of Gable, and expected to return
home tomorrow
NEWS IN ST. PAUL.
The sad news of Mr. Hersey's disap-
pearance and probable drowning reached
st. Paul yesterday, and the young mans
many friends were reluctant in believing
that he had persisted in the lake, as he
was known to have been an expert swim.
mer and it was not until several mes
sages followed the first advices the fam>
uy abandoned hope that the report may
have been a mistake.
Mr.. Hersey was young man of warm
personality, rs years of ago, and pronI
nent among the younger set of st. Paul
society. He was popularity known among
his friends as "Bunn" Hersey. a-u a
general favorite. He was the Youngest
son of Col. R. L. Hersey, a prominent
capitalist. Mr.. Bum Hersey took an
active interest in gentlemanly athletics,
and he and his wife were constant ha-
bitues of the golf links and players re-
cognized for their skill Mr.. Hersey's
recent marriage to Miss Elizabeth Ster-
rit of New York makes the calamity
doubly sad, and Mr.. Hersey's young
bride has the sympathy of her many
newly made friends in st. Paul. She
formerly resided in New York, and when
she came to make her home in St PAU
she was well received in the society OF
this city.

Woman to Woman.

l1~-..5~ Woman to Woman.
From the Detroit Free Press: She
was pleasant-faced woman, middle
aged, and with an air Of good will to
everybody, even those Of her own sex.
When she got on the street car there
was just one seat left, and she walked
toward it. But another woman had
boarded the car right behind her. She,
too, was middle-aged, and, though still
plump, her hair had wider gray streaks
in 1t than the couture of the first lady.
The latter, seeing a woman apparently
older than herself, stepped back from
the seat she was about to take, and
said: Won't you take this seat, ma
dam? You probably need It more than
l." II it had been a man that offered
the courtesy, Of course, that slightly
elderly lady would have accepted 1t
with a smile, and. perhaps, with a
thank you" But this was woman.
and it was another story. She shifted
the air disdainfully, and said: "The
idea! I'm no older than you. Take the
seat yourself" And the other passen-
gers all found something outside the
car to attract their attention.
