The Gossip.

Bandmaster John p. Sousa will cut
quite a dash next season when he takes
his barh upon the road. Hitherto the
musical organization under his control
has travelled, like any other collection of
plebeian mortals, In ordinary railway
cars, mixing with the rabble.
Hereafter the Sousa Band vii. go
whiriing through the country I'm three
private cars one of which will' be re-
served for Sousa's personal use.
This Is not unreasonable luxury in view
of the fact that the band makes" an av-
erage OF two towns day and lives on
wheels, one night say.
Actors and actresses think they work
hard when they give an extra matinee
here and there. What would be their ini-
prcssion OF life II they played regularly

SIDE LIGHT ON EMBASSY TO BERLIN.

Since the coronation of the present en-
peror, at no other European capital has
there been need for 30 much tact and dis
cretion as here. For IL is useless to pre-
tend that he Is friend TO our govern
ment or 10 US as people. Those in au-
thority must keep up the fiction of friend
snip, but aside from his innate hostility

We are the foremost representatives, on
dozen specinc points he holds us in spec
ial dislike. The wholesale emigration OF
German subjects 10 America and the
readiness with which they surrender their
allegiance 10 the father-land have long
been sore subjects with the school of
Berlin politicians OF which the Kaiser
Is now the head. They have always pre-
vented the conclusion OF any kind OF
treaty OF extradition by which this re-
nunciation of citizenship is recognized.
They have kept our relations I'm con-
slant state OF ferment by repeatedly i'm
pressing for military service the sons
of Germany who have acquired American
citizenship. In desire for the discontin-
uance of this loss of blood and sinew the
great German hunger for colonies has
been born. The emperor has repeatedly
said in connection with his country's
need for colonial expansion that not only
were markets needed for German COM
merce and additional ground space for
a growing population. but also space
where they might still maintain their al
legiance to the home government This
brings forward another subject always
sure to provoke bitter comment at the
German court. The Kaiser nolds that II
Is only what he calls the verfuchtiger
(accursed) Monroe doctrine which pre-
vents the acquisition OF a rich German
colony i'm South America. I have the in
formation upon substantial authority that
for many years plans against the inde-
pendence OF Argentina were brewing In
Berlin. Colonists were sent out by the
hundreds Of thousands. Trade relations
were assiduously cultivated. Many en-
irrants were kept In the employment OF
the government for the furtherance OF
the scheme.-Hsrper's Weekly.

And with dark they raise their voices.

Mr. Kruger l asked, do you hold

namely. foreign capitalism and the gold
mines contention. The world has been
told Though various sources that the
Boer legislation and management have
ciogged the progress of this Industry. and
IL has been pointed out but for English
capital the Transvaal wealth would never
have been developed.
This is what Mr.. Kruger has to say
MY country has been n godsend TO
promoters like Rhodes and Barnato. Both
or them came out here poverty-stricken
and without influence. Now they talk as
though they had put the quartz into the
earth. and vaunt about their money de-
veloping the Rand. But what did they
do?. Why, persuaded the public in Eng
land and Europe 20 invest so generously
that not only these adventures, but
many others, became wealthy. while
those who supplied the funds were fire.
quently victimized. And now I will tell
sou SoHietninS. since tnIs war began my
government has worked several of the
richest mines, and we find that they have
all along been paying profit OF sixty
per cent On this we placed a tax OF five
per cent-that is, for every sixty pounds
they extracted we asked but three
pounds. Is this not generous? DO you
think that the English government
would be equally kind? ] say no. If God
wills that we shall lose our country, then
the stockholders will find that their
profits will be greatly decreased, for Eng
land will tax them to pay for this war
But i asked. will you not have to
resort TO the same measure I'm case you
win. Mr.. Kruger?'
No replied his honor. for our ex-
penses are very small. No country on
earth can maintain a war so cheaply'
What has been the cost thus far? I
ventured.
Mr.. Kruger hesitated at this, but af-
ter consulting hurriedly with several ad-
visers. replied: About four million
pounds
AT that rate. then, you can keep up
the conflict indefinitely
Yes, with the help OF the Almighty
We are getting one million pounds out OF
the mines every month. With this we
can buy all our foodstuffs and as for am
munition, that We can make right here
everything from a Mauser bullet TO a

lish were kind enough to give us enough

The scheme of bringing several hun
dred Filipino young men here to be edu-
Gated. suggested by Professor Moses of
the commission, seems on its face a good
one. The Filipinos up to the present time
have got their suppression of the Ameri-
cans largely from our soldiers who have
been engaged chiefly Ia shooting them.
and IL is not at all strange that an inn
preston gained under such circumstan-
ces is not very favorable one. IL sew
cral hundred of their young men should
come here they might carry back an i'm
preston of our people, and of their in
tentions towards their race, which might
be very potent in improving the feelings
OF the natives toward us. The bringing Of
the Cuban teachers here is believed to
be destined 10 do much good. Why
should not similar experiment with the
Filipinos be productive OF good also?
