Berlin, Nov. 3.-Society circles here
have been thrown into u furry OF ex-
element on account Of the unconven-
tional and, as some say, unwoman!y
ways OF the wife of Major General Won
LiebeTt OF German East Africa.
The governor and his spouse are
spending a brief furlOugh in the cap
ital to recuperate in a milder cline
from the languor and debility of pro-
tracted residence in the tropics.
Frau Won Liebert is a captivating
woman OF so, dashing, vivacious bru-

roaming, outdoor life. She hates the

stead, it is her delight to shoulder the

she has been overwhelmed with invita-
tons from the moment her arrival in
Berlin was announced. But there Is
one thing which even the less prudent
members Of the haut monde will not
overlook-Frau Won Liebert rides
astride on horseback.
Every morning the governors wife
may be seen galloping through the
Thiergarten at breakneck speed, laugh
ing at the police who warn her to de-
sist. The fair rider is clad in light at
tire. A white waist with stand-up COLI
lar and black tie, pair of bloomers'
and leggings buttoned to the knee over
highly polished black boots, black
belt and trim masculine hat complete
the habit. She sits her horse like a

munication throughout an empire that
extends from the Baltic to the Yellow
sea. Years ago on the Moscow ex-
change one might transact business as
rapidly in German as in Russian; now
the native merchants, even those who
know German, require some special
induccment to speak it, and in the hur-
ry Of business turn aside impatientIy
from any one who addresses them in
any other tongue than that they them
selves habitually use. In the near flu
ture knowledge OF Russian will be
worth more to the mere commercial
than any two continental languages,
for Russia is making gigantic strides
in all industries, says Pearson's Week
ly. As recent visitor aptly describes
it, Russia is new America" To a
young man who adds to knowledge
of Russian practical experience in any
staple industry, Russia offers a prom
Using career. Mere theoretical knowl-
edge is not enough; this is taught, and
we'll taught, in the special universi-
ties; st. Petersburg alone turns out
some hundreds of efficient "techno-

any of the textile, engineering, or the
chemical industries is not so readily
obtainable in Russia. and a capable

A frank and somewhat artless state
gent of what is being done in the line
Of burning the farms of the Beers is
made by correspondent Of the Pail
Mall Gazette at Johannesburg. This
enterprising person wishes to form a
company to buy up the farms OF the
Beers and sell them to English settlers.
The properties can be bought for a
mere trifle. The reason why, as given
by this speculative correspondent, is
instructive. When the Boer prisoners
of war return they will find in nine
cases out of ten that their homesteads
have been burned down and scarcely a
head of stock left" They will be des-
titute and their only hope Of subsis
tence will be in the sale of their land

may choose to give.

David come out ahead. But between
him and his home there Is the cele-
brated river Jordan which has to be
passed. The king is accompanied to
the bank OF the river by an aristocratic

by name. who owned a fine country

and his family and his old friend
Barzillai from Rogelim get on board
the boat. Either with splashing oars
at the side or with one oar sculling at
the stern Of the boat they leave the
eastern bank Of the Jordan and start
for the western bank.
That western bank is black with

from Rogelim step ashore. King Da-
