.DOER GENERALS
WARMLY WELCOMED
Great Ovation Given the Fight
ers at The Hague
,BoTHA is SAD OVER RESULT
Says He and His Companions Are the
Deputies of a People Ruined
Because They Did
Their Duty.

The Hague, August ia public reccp-
ton was accorded to the Boer generals
en- their arrival here today from Rotter-
dam. General Eyter in a speech paid a
tribute to their heroic deeds. General
Botha replied, expressing the apprecia-
ton Of the Boer officers at the warmth

consolation which It had been to them to
know that while they fought their women
ard children were being supported by
Dutch generosity she time. added Cen
eral Botha, had not yet arrived TO make
rublic all they knew. but probably at no
distant day they would print their views
CT The war.
The visitors were escorted in procession
through the town in open carriages and
were everywhere loudly cheered by the
crowds assembled. A number Of Beers
who SER ed during the war formed a
guard of honor for the generals.
Long Live the Beers.
The space in front of the hotel where
apartments had been secured for the gem
erals was closely packed with people and
shouts of Long live the Boers,' greeted
the South African commanders when they
appeared and the crowd sang the Trans
vaal national anthem, whereupon the gem
erals barred their heads and waved their
hats in acknowledgement of the welcome
accorded them. Subsequently reception
was held in the drawing room, former
state Secretary of the Transvaal Reitz,
and DR.. Leyds, the European agent Of
the Beers, introducing the local celebrities
to the visitors.
In the course of a speech General Botha
declared that he and his colleagues had
not come here to hold festivities, but
the cordiality of their reception was some
recompense for the great sorrow they had
experienced. We are the deputies, said
the Boer commandant general, Of one Of
the most ruined peopie-ruined only be-
cause we have done our duty and defend
ed our liberty and independence for which
no sacrifice could be too great.
VIII Visit Kruger.
The generals are expected to visit
former President Kruger at Utrecht to-
morrow and probably will remain until
August 81.
The generals have requested the men,
bers of the Boer association to refrain
from making anti British speeches,
which, the Boer commanders say may
possibly impair the success of their mis-
sion to Great Britain. During the day
the generals visited former President
Steyn.
The generals also attended the pro-
Boer exhibition, which is being held
here. Responding to the welcome they
received at the exhibition building, Gen
eral Dewet. in a voice broken with emo
ton, said:

ton of art and industry have contributed

The refusal of the sheriff of C1eburne

any remedy for a refusal Of sheriff to

could easily be overcome by forcing the
sheriff to do his duty by instituing man

The Normal school.

Samuel Glass of Trego county

merry lot of girls, made It's trip to
the Normal school, and has kept it
up all the week and will all the
winter, until warm sprlug comes.
And this is the beginning of the
end of having the Normal school
built and maintained on the old
Parade Ground, on account of the
distance from the town, If we
want to make it future success,
inviting to scholars to attend, it
must be put closer to town, north
of the creek. This is Prof. Pick.

trial; while the location over there
is grand, the spot historic, yet
the long distance and walk is un
pleasant to students, is keeping
many away and Will always prove
TO be a serious drawback to the
school.
We have been a warm friends
of the Fort site, done all we could
to improve and make It the spot.
but the question of the success Of
the school IS far more important
than a school without scholars.
So our people might just as well
prepare to see the new building
on the north side OF the creek.
Now let our people unite and
get q good appropriation from the
Legislature, put up nice stone
school house on the fiat near the
old Fort bridge this side of the
creek. The big cottage of :. Prof.
EPIcken can be easily slid down
the hill whole without injury and
located on the lovely spot just
south of the creek near the foot
bridge, and with his buildings it
would make an ideal home. Big

down there as homes for other tea
chers, and no creek to cross would
not cost much to move, and be han
