of Dom Paul.
LONDON, Aug. 3O.-The johannesburg
correspondent of the Morning Post says:
President Kruger, in the course of an
interview today (Tuesday) regarding the
crisis, said he considered the Beer posi-
ton best defined by Psalm S3.''
Psalm SO, to which President Kruger
refers contains the following: "*
For, 10. thine enemies make a tumuIt:
and they that hate thee have lifted up
the head. They have taken crafty coun-
sci against thy people, and consulted
against thy hidden ones. They have said:
Come and let US cut off from being a ma
t!on that the name of Israel may be no
longer in remembrance Do unto
them as unto the Midianites Make
their mobiles like Oreb and like Zeeb .
0, my God, make them like a wheel;
as the stubble before the wind. AS the
fire burneth a wood and as the flame set
teth the mountains on fire, so persecute
them with thy tempest, and make them
afraid with thy storm Let them
be confounded and troubled forever; yea,
let them be put to shame and perish 80

New York, Jan. H.-Go where you will.
you meet ex-residents of the hustlng little
city of Wichita, and as q. rule you find
them prosperous. New York is no ex-
ception. Here in the city of multi-million-
aires and foreign paupers you find them
with their heads erect and a look of con-

close bond of friendship existing among
all true Wichitans, and thinking those who
still are with you would be interested in
a short article as to their whereabouts and
progress, I write you this on the product
