Il G0OD SCHEME.

| The war in South Africa continues to
drag it's slow length along, but it is now
hoped that it will be ended by the end
of October. AS Kipling points out in
his latest and hardest poem, horses with
four legs can go faster than men with
two, and Lord Kitchener has it Is said
planned to have $4,000 specially select
ed horsemen, who will be divided into
three corps and will operate against
the three leading Boer commanders,
following them constantly. These coll
umns are to be supplied with special
transport and are expected to be able
to follow the Beers wherever they may
flee. In conjunction with these three
columns there will be a special corps
of sharpshooters and infantry regi-
ments that will form q strong rear
guard for the cavalry, holding strategic
points and always keeping on hand
stock of supplies and remounts for the
flying columns. So much work will be
expected Of these $4,000 picked men that
only the best of the soldiers, men thor
oughly seasoned to the work, will be
taken, and inducements will be offered
for the re-enlistment Of some of the
best men of the yeomanry corps that
have already been returned to England.
Besides these three flying columns
strong military guards will be stationed
along the railroad lines in order to
avoid as far as possible the blowing up
of the roadbed and the deraling of
trains by small guerilla bands.
This looks like good scheme, and it
may work better than some Of the other
good schemes have

assailed Schley, and quite as generous.

Il SURPRISE.

Another queer turn in the yachting.
Yesterday the Columbia defeated the
Constitution by nearly three minutes
in a fine race. Her victory is describ-
ed as decisive and convincing, so de-
cislve and convincing that it is an
nounced that the Constitution will not
take part in another race until her rig
has been altered.
OF course it doesn't make much diff
ference what boat beats the Shamrock,
but the discovery that the Constitution
can't go very well is surprising. Every
effort will be made to fix her so that
she can do the trick and prevent the
surprise that would agitate this coun-
try If that cup should happen to be
taken to England.

MRS. KRUGER.
The Simple Annals of Her Life.

4
There is no way to write romance into
the life Of this homely old woman.
| There is no way to speak of her but as
the wife of her husband and the faith
| full keeper of his household. She want
| ed to be that and nothing more. The
rough work which she had been COM
pelfed to do in the early days became a
fixed habit She had not an ambition
beyond the threshold of her home. 1T
| is related that when Kruger asked her
to marry hlm-she was Miss duPies-
sis, daughter OF a cattle raiser-she
said to him proudly: II can bake and
sew and scrub She never added to
these talents, and never neglected
them. When President Kruger b.
came wealthy, it suggested to her not
luxury, but further economy. Until. he
left Pretoria she cooked his meals,
made his coffee and mended his
clothes.
saw her the day the British entered
the capital She sat at window in
the modest little cottage where the
president had lived for years. With
her were two Of her grown daughters.
For hours the endless line of soldiers in
dusky khaki had streamed past. The
shaded street was full OF noise of
tramping feet, the thunder of galloping
hoofs, the creaking of wagons and the
rumble of gun carriages. And the pa
tent old woman sat staring from the
window. She did not weep. Her grief
seemed too deep for tears. Presently
she rose and turned away, and the cur
tain was pulled down. / never saw it
raised again 1t was as If she would
shut out the sight of the men who had
taken Dom Paul's city.
There are no stories of Mrs Kruger
except those relating to her housewife
ly virtues. In these she was the mod
ell Of the women of her race On every
morning Of her married life she rose at
five o'clock and made the black coffee
with which the Boer day begins. She
was proud of her coffee, and indeed it
was good After the morning service,
read by the president, she returned to
the kitchen, to prepare breakfast. All
the work of the household was done
under her personal direction, and
most of it by herself. She would allow
no one to cook so much as an egg in
her kitchen.
Her economy was as great as her
skill, and was as great a source Of
pride to her ana the president. Every
caller, official or otherwise, had to be
treated to cup of coffee, and no one
could make it but Mrs. Kruger. There
was always a pot Of it ready to be car
ried into the best ROOM" or out on the
"stoep," where the president conducted
much of his business. These formali-
ties We're provided for by the Trans
vaal government, which made him an
allowance of about two thousand
pounds a year for coffee money" 1t
was a belief in Pretoria that this sum
covered the living expenses of the
president and his frugal wife
When no household duties demanded
attention Mrs. Kruger took up sewing
or knitting She invariably darned the
presidents socks. and often sat at her

TWO GENTL EN- IN.

Two gentlemen who know what is
due "a gentleman have recently testified.
! One of them Is Robert Treat Paine of
Boston. He Is a rich man and direct
whose name appears among those ap-
pended to the Declaration of Independ-
ance. Letters from Chicago inclosing
checks which represent dividend pay
ments recently began coming to Robert
Treat Paine of New York. Mr.. Paine
knew they could not be intended for
him, and the first two he returned to
the sender When third arrived he
satisfied himself that the letters really
belonged to Robert Treat Paine Of Bos-
ton. Thereupon he wrote to him as fol-
lows: please find enclosed a letter
opened by me by mistake. For your
own convenience kindly notify persons
sending money to you Of your proper
address" Mr.. Paine of New York had
no idea that he was doing anything
but service to Mr. Paine Of Boston
in notifying him that part Of his in
come was going astray. He was much
surprised to receive from Mr.. Paine of
Boston a few days later reply, which
was in substance as follows: your
letter with it's enclosure, has been re-
ceived By me. I hope you will allow me
to express my sincere regret that you
should wear the name that by right of
lineal descent belongs to me and my
family here in Boston. There is no
other direct male descendant Of Robert
Treat Paine, signer of the Declaration
Of independence, who was first to bear
that name. If the name was given to
you out of honor to the signer, I think
such a practice should not receive the
sanction of thoughtful persons"
Mr.. Robert Treat Paine of Boston is
q United States gentleman. The other
gentleman whose testimony is interest
ing is an English gentleman. he mas
just felt compelled to resign his posi-
ton in an English workhouse where he
has lived at public expense for the last
three years. A friend had given him

 The forests alone cannot. however fully regulate and conserve the waters of the arid region.

 The reclamation Of the unsettled arid public ianas presents different prob lem. Here it is not enough to regulate the flow of streams. The object of the government is 10 dispose of the land to settlers who will build homes upon it. To accomplish this object water must be brought within their reach.
 The pioneer settlers on the arid pub lie domain chose their homes along streams from which they could them selves divert the water to reclaim their holdings. Such opportunities are prae- tcally gone. There remain, however, vast areas Of public land which can be made available for homestead settle ment. but only by reservoirs and main line canals impracticable for private enterprise. These irrigation works should be built by the national govern ment. The lands reclaimed by them should be reserved by the government for actual settlers and the cost of con struction should, so far as possible, be repaid by the land reclaimed.

Many of the fast foreign steamships, at q speed of four. teen knots or above, are subsidized. and all our ships, sailing vessels and steamers alike. cargo carriers of slow speed and mail carriers of high speed have to meet the fact that the original cost of building American ships is greater than is the case abroad: that the wages paid American officers and sea. men are very much higher than those paid the officers and seamen of foreign competing countries, and that the standard of living on our ships is far superior to the standard of living on the ships of our commercial rivals Our government should take such action as will remedy these inequalities.

 Financial.
 The passage of the act establishing gold as the standard money has, it is declared, been shown to be timely and judicious. The president adds:
 In many respects the national bank ing law furnishes sufficient liberty for the proper exercise of tue banking function, but there seems to be need of better safeguards against the de- ranging influence of commercial crises and financial panics. Moreover. the currency of the country should be made responsive to the demands of our domestic trade and commerce.

CLAIM jumpers occasionally do
great injustice to claim owners through
q mistaken notion as to whether the
annual representation work has been
done, says the Western Mining World.
II often happens that the claim jumper
has no other authority for assuming
that claim is jumpable than the fact
that no record of annual representation
work has been made in the Office of the
county clerk. In default of the record
he assumes that the claim has been
abandoned. But he is not justified in
this. The law does not make such
record mandatory. Itmerely says that
the claim owner "may" make such a
record within twenty days from the
completion of the work, setting forth
certain facts. The only advantage OF
making such record is that the law
construes it as prims facie evidence
that the work has been done. If a
claim is jumped after the assessment
work has been recorded the burden OF
proof is upon the jumper to show that
the work has not been done as con-
templated by law; on the other hand,
if the assessment work is not recorded
the burden of proof rests upon the
owner OF the claim to show that the
work has been done.

VERDICT.

The findings of majority Of the
Schley court of inquiry was not wholly
unexpected, but it will in no way affect
the popularity of the hero Of Santiago
with the people of the United States.
The people believe that Admiral Schley
has been bounded by spiteful and
ealcus clique in the navy department.
While the verdict of the commission
attempts to detract from the heroism
of Schley, the dissent of Admiral
Dewey is in accord with the sentiment
of the country and win be accepted as
the real verdict. In standing by Schley
and generating him, Admiral Dewey
proved that he has lost none Of the
courage which he exhibited at Manila
bay. He will receive the plaudits of
his country now for his manly action,
as he did for his bravery when he shot
the Spanish squadron to death at Ma
nila. 1t now transpires that strong

American vessels will remain in the
hearts of the American people as the
author Of that great victory.
