and the South African Republic: Your
excellency's telegram reached me yes

grieve me more than that my burghers
should make themselves guilty of a
deed such as that laid to their charge
by you. I am, however, glad to say you
must have been mistaken. made a
personal inquiry Of General Delarey,
who was In command Of our burghers
at the place mentioned by you. He de-
MES entirely that our burghers acted as
stated by you, but he says that Satur-
day, date being illegible, the British
troops, when they were about fifty
yards from our position, put up their
hands as well as white flag, whilst at
the same time your cannon bombarded
our troops, with the result that Com
mandant De Bear was wounded. Yes
terday morning the head commandant
wrote In his account of the battle as fol-
lows: "The soldiers hoisted the white
flag, but we were then fired at by Eng
lish cannons and were compelled to
charge
Perhaps it is not known to your ex-
cellency that the same thing happened
at Spion Kop, where, when a portion of
the troops hoisted a white flag and put
UP their hands, and whilst our burgh
ers were busy disarming them, another
portion of your troops fired on our
burghers; but some British troops were
killed. 1t has also been reported that
at the last battle of the Tugela English
cannon fired on troops who had surren-
dered. With reference to the explosive
bullets found in Cronje's laager and
elsewhere, I can give your excellency
assurances that such bullets were not
purchased or allowed by the govern
ment. I, however, have no reason to
doubt your statement, as I know that

A newly appointed census taker
writes as follows:
Elf you don't answer the census
man Uncle Sam will find out the
reason why. There are many CUES
tions that viii be asked about every

No doubt census takers will find per
sons here and there who do not care
to tell their age, for such people ex-
ist especially among the fair sex; or
there may be some who will be disin
clined to divulge their business. but
when this government undertakes to
ask personal questions, which it does
every ten years, it is the safest policy
to answer them quickly, however
much you may dislike to do 3d. The
statute of the United States provides
that if anyone refuses to answer any
of the questions he will be considered
guilty of misdemeanor and be liable
to a fine of 800. All should remem-
bcr this fact, for in June many ques-

Decoration Day.


Another year has passed and gone and
has been made memorable in the history
of our country. But although we are
now living in stirring times, and the map
is being enlarged by the heroes of today
we must not forget the heroes of the past,
who were willing to give up their lives
on the altar of Patriotism by fighting for
the integrity and solidity of the Union.
As each year passes there are fewer to
march, but more graves to decorate with
beautiful flowers. Our youth cannot be
too often reminded that Decoration Day,
is day of solemnity aud mourning, not
holiday to be given up to sports and
games. 1t is to be hoped this year and
all others to follow that parents and all
others that may have influence with the
young that they win remind them of this
fact. But rather let them join reverently
with the possession and take their part
on that day of communication of the
noble dead
