Madagascar Gives
Beers Cheap Land

Excitement was recently caused in
Tanamarivo, Madagascar, when sever.
al Beers arrived ana asked for an au.
dience with the commander, General
Gallieni. Their request being granted,
they told him that they desired to
form a colony in Madagascar, and he
promptly gave them a concession Of
more than two hundred thousand acres
for the sum Of two francs an acre.
These Beers are near relatives OF
Joubert and Botha, and they are said
to have a capital of riore than 1000;
600 francs. AS they succeeded in OBJ.
tanning a large concession of land with
little difficulty, 1t is believed that sew
eral other Beers will soon go to Mad.

END Of Old VERMONT

New York, April 27.-The old re-

half century was one of the features
at the Navy Yard In Brooklyn, is near
her end. In few days she will be

Then she will be set on fire and burn.
ed for the purpose of getting the met
al she contains.
The Vermont was built in Boston in
1912. She subsequently was brought
to the Navy Yard, where she replaced
the Colorado as the receiving ship. She
lay at Cob dock. She was housed over
and looked more like an ark than a
warship. She was replaced some
time ago by the modern cruiser, the
Columbia.
