WANTED ST. PAUL.
me suitan's Omcer Wanted to Arrest
Him for Writing Those Let
tiers to GaIata,

A comicai.incident at Constantinople
illustrates what thin ice those who use
the press have to walk upon under the
rule of the sultan.
There is n Greek benevolent society
in Constantinople which recently had
occasion to publish a pamphlet on its
work, and on the title page there was
put quotation from st. Paufs Epistlc
to the Galatians. Very soon after il APP
peared polite officer came to the print
ing office and demanded of the editor
that he should give him information as
to who this Paul was who had been
writing letters to the police of Galata
Zone of the suburbs of Constantinople).
as he had orders to get copy of these
letters and to bring the aforesaid Paul
to headquarters.
The editor explained that Paul could
not be brought to headquarters; he
was dead. But the functionary retort-
ed that his orders were to bring Paul
and, If he could not bring Paul, to bring
the editor. 1t was Of no use to protest
that Paul had been dead for / 500 years:
the editor was taken to headquarters
and put in prison for several days, until
finally the Greek patriarch interfered
and presented the bureau Of censorship
with copy of the letter of Paul, which
he showed was addressed, not to the
people Of Galata, but TO province of
the ancient Roman empire.
This having been at last made clear
the editor was released.--N. Y. World.

81 A YEAR,
GENERAL J0UBERT.

bert, the great general of the Boel
army, passed into the world be
yond, on March 2Sth. at Pre-
toIia, after an illness Of sey
eral days duration. The deceased
soldier was the descendant of az
old French Eugen0t family. which
settled in South Africa many years
ago. Having been born at Cape
Colony, he removed to the Orang,
Free State with his parents at the
age ST seven years. The early
doctrine instilled into his mind
was to "shoot straight, and hate
the British"
The States in commenting on the
deceased says
General Joubert was always III
favor Of the use of force instead
of dipl0macyand President Kruger
on several occasions had great
difficulty in depressing his hot
headed colleague, notably in 1879,
when Joubert with Kruger and
Pretorius were planning the rebel
lion TO overthrow the British rule
in the Transvaal. The result was
Majuba bill and the practical indie
pcndence of the Transvaal.
1t was Joubert who organized
the army of the South African re
public, later OH dividing the coun.
try into seventeen military depart
ments and each of these depart
ments into smaller divisions with
commandants, field comets and
lientenants Of various ranks in
charge.
According to the generals.
plans, every native became a train
ed soldier without leaving his farm
and has his equipment always at
hand. So near perfection was the
system carried onthat within forty
eight hours after the present war
was declared, the Boer nation was
under arms.
II was also due to General ,Jou
bert that tire South African repub-
lies succeeded in passing the i'm.
mense stores of ammunition and
provisions Which, has stood them
in such good stead during the con
flict now in progress.
When the Jameson raiders were
locked up IN Pretoria jail, Jonbert !
was strongly in favor of their i'm
execution. 1t was not un-
til Joubert and Kruger had been
closeted together for a whole night
that the more merciful counsels of
Kruger prevailed. In spite of
these characteristics, Joubert, on
some occasions showed consider
able regard for the usages of civil
ization. When the Beers raided
British Territory, Bechuanaland. in
1884, Joubert was probably the
only prominent Boer who refused
to support the movement and his
resulted in the with
irawal of the Beers from the terri
tory seized, as he threatened to re-
sign unless he had his way, saying:
II positively refuse to hold Office
inder government that deliber-
ately breaks its covenants, and
We have made covenants with
&gland." /,
IN November last it was report
"a that General .louaeia had been
killed in action and late repo.ts
'aid he was dangerously wounded
md had to use cart in order to
ollow the operations IN the field.
In the death of their general, the
'oers have lost their main support.
nd the loss of so tru. and tried Il
atriot and citiz ii Ak General Jou-
art, cannot help but create con ,
terlation in the little republic.
What influence his death may
ave upon the future course DC the
ar, il is difficult to even coniec.

''The Little Rock and Northern railroad is neither dead nor sleep- ing," says the Dodd City Repub- lican. "There are four engineer ing corps in the fields. Every indication points to early con- struction of this important road. It is full of life and vigor and there is no longer a doubt that it will be built. Judge Vaughan has just received q letter from one of the prominent officers of the company which indicates that a considerable amount of work is being done on the line, as they have four engineering corps in the field, moving towards Spring field, Mo. That by July 4th they will have the route through Ark ansas definitely located, and it looks as if they were going to build the road"
