TO PAY COST OF WAR.
British Government Decided to Levy
 S25OOOO.O 900 on Transyaal Mines.

New York, June 13.-A dispatch to the World from London says: The British government has decided to levy $250, 100000 on the Transyaal gold mines to help pay the cost of the war
 Sir David Barbour, formerly finance minister for India, who was commis- stoned to report upon the taxable ca pacity of these mines, advised Colonial Secretary Chamberlain to levy $175,- 100000, but MT Chamberlain, after consultation with Lord Milner, in creased the maximum in the amount stated.
 This recommendation, when it be- comes known here, is certain to cause consternation among the Kaffir stock holders, who fancied that the idea of taxing the mine, which are mostly owned in England, had been aban- doned
 As these gold mines were the real underlying cause of the war, many have maintained that their British owners should be made to bear large share, at least, of it's heavy burden.

such work as he wanted attended to was finished Mir Reed was let go. The same course would have been pursued if he were union man, so that MT Reeds contention that he is being per secuted on account of the fact that he is not affiliated with the union does not hold in this case, and probably a little investigation would reveal sim liar condition of affairs regarding his allegations against the organization.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness and that is by constitu-
nonal remedies. Deafness is caused by an in

Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets inf1am-
med you have rumbling sound or imperfect
nearing, and when it is entirely closed deafness
IS the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever |:

CHILDREN IN HOLLAND.
little Lads and Lassies in a scheven.


ingen kindergarten.
Wandering through the crooked
streets OF the little fishing village OF
Scheveningen, from which the famous
Dutch watering place takes its name,
1 hear many shouts Of laughter issuing
from garden inclosed by high walls.
The gate was open and I peeped in.
My curiosity was rewarded by one OF
the sweetest sights I have ever wit
messed About twenty little Dutch
maids and lads, their ages varying
from 3 to years, were enjoying
game of ordinary American tag, while
a little attendant of about II stood BY
busily knitting while she watched
them A bell sounded. They all fell
in line behind the little knitter and
walked demurely, two by two, in a SER
pentine line around the garden and,
disappeared in a long hall, at the
door of which each child took off its
little wooden shoes and held them in
one hand behind it's back.
Meantime the principal came out
and invited me by signs to enter. In
the hall | noticed the little sabots laid
OIL ierly, side by side. There were
three halls in this kindergarten. In
each were fifty children, between the
ages of 3 and years-the girls in
gowns to their ankles, held out in bal
loon fashion with haircloth petticoats
little white shawls pinned over the
shoulders and cans covering their
straight yellow locks.
At this free kindergarten the chill
dren of the fisher folk. many Of then
fatherless, derive all care and atten-
ton. They are taught by the same
methods used in Germany. All seemed
bright and happy. In one room they
were singing quaint little nursery
rhymes about boats So one little fel-
low made me understand by walking
across the floor, rolling like sailor,
and then going through the motions of
a rowing a boat and pulling in nets.
He, with great glee, made me under
stand that he would be fisherman
when he was $50 big" stretching up
his arms and smoking an imaginary
pipe. This amused the children so
much and made them shout and laugh
SO loud that the teacher was obliged
to send them to their seats and end
our Washington Star.
