The New A. NJ. E. church had
their grand opening last Sunday and
a very large attendance witnessed the
services in the forenoon and evening.
Rev. Hubbard, the presiding elder for
this district, was present and made
an impressive address to an apprecia-
tive audience. Nearly two years ago,
Rev. Allen, the pastor. proposed to
build a church and with the aid and
assistance of himself and wife and the
members and friends and public gener-
ally, they started on their tedious task.
All the available resources at their
hands was the confidence of his follow
ers. A lot was donated for the church
on the corner of Idaho and Platinum,
by Senator w. A. Clark. upon which
Rev. Allen has labored necessarily
and can now boast of the end which
he has gained. Through the efforts
of mis- supporters he now has a neat
little church, with a seating capacity
of two hundred, beautiful stained glass
windows adorn it's walls and an elab
crate cut stone foundation supports
a neat brick veneered frame building
The corner stone was laid on the 9th
of June of last year, amidst impressive
ceremonies, in which many ministers
of the city were present The day Of
dedication is set for the 31st of Aug
ust, when Bishop Schaffer will b. here
to attend the services, after which
Rev. Allen will leave for Colorado
to attend the annual conference. A
liberal collection was made, in which
$1,000 subscription was taken.
The new organ pealed forth tn,
melodious strains of sacred music un
der the guidance of Mrs. Bartlett, tn,
organist, assisted by the choir, which
is composed of Mr.. and Mrs. II. C
Parsons. Mr.. and Mrs. S. Reeves, Mis-
DAVIS, Miss Signofita Scott and Mr.

not 70 his liking. Still less was he ready
to welcome a British suzerainty. Britain
was the one enemy that had been logging
his steps, and his fathers steps, and his
grandfather's steps; and now his last su-
preme effort to rid himself of the hateful
presence, which was also a ~hampering con.

ger, in 1883, visited London with a petition
to Queen Victoria for a revision OF the arti.

name of his people-rather, in the name OF
the Boer portion of them-had entered his

interpretations, that served as the nominal

war, and the war has now ended in a Brit

Gen. Roberts had now carried the war
into the very heart of the enemy's country,
and, with the exception of a number of raids
into Cape Colony by the Beers, it has re-
manned there. But the war was not over.
England's rising huzzahs at British victories
were tempered by news of British defeats.
Roberts pushed active operations against the
enemy in the eastern Transvaal, and on Sep.
TENDER 20, eight day. after Preside emit Kruger
had entered Portuguese territory, he report

of the remnant of the Boer army in that

AMERICANS IN SOUTH AFRICA
At the Forefront of Great Industrial
and Mining Enterprises.

The people of this nation have more than
a sentimental interest in practically all
that pertains to South Africa. In addition
to our rapidly increasing with
the different English colonies there, in.
GLIDING the Transvaal and the Orange Free
State, there is the interest that attaches
to the large number of Americans who are
in the country and assisting in the devel-
opme mi of its resources. Mr.. Howard G.
Hillegas, in his book entitled COON PauPs
People," pays the following tribute to these
Americans in South Africa:
However great the commercial interests
OF the United States In South Africa, they
are small in comparison with the work OF
Individual Americans, who have been active
the last quarter of a century. Whatever
great enterprises have been inaugurated,
Americans nave been prominently identified
with their growth and development, and in
not a few instances has the success OF the
ventures been wholly due to American Lead
ership. European capital Is the foundation
Of all the great South African institutions,

DON PAUL KRUGER.
Something of His Life and Work in
South Africa,

President Kruger, he who figured more
prominently in the early part of this war
that England declares is now over than
any other one man, is product of the hardy
conditions that surrounded pioneer life on
the South African veldt. He seems to have
been born a leader of men. Unlike the
majority of the T~ransvaal and Free State
burghers, who are Of Holland ancestry, he is
of German descent, his ancestors emf
grating from the Potsdam district of Ger
many TO South Africa in l7l3.
Dom Paul was born in Colesburg, Cape
Colony, October 10, 1925. At the age of
ten years he migrated with his parents from
the place of his birth to the then unknown
interior. In this new country his military
life began at the age Of Is, when he served
in the wars with the Zulus as a field cornet
in the Dutch army. In lS4S he took his
place beside his father in the conflict with
the British at the battle Of Boomplaats.
When the British advance made further
occupation of this territory Objectionable
to the Beers he became one of the leaders
of the "trekkers" who moved TO the
Transvaal country. By 1861 he had risen
in military rank until he was commander in

gotten. Other Boer victories of the year
were the capture Of Plummer's supply train
on May 25; the almost complete destruction
of the Seventh Yeomanry by Delarey on
May %; the capture of 200 Victorian Rifles
on June u, and the loss by Col. Benson Of
Is officers and $50 men on November l.
During this time, however, Gen. Kitchen.
er had not been idle. His army had been
pushing the Boer forces almost constantly;
he had been rapidly extending the line of
block houses that marked the permanent
English advance, and while the record of the
year showed some brilliant coupes on the
part of the Boer generals they were of the

could such thing have been possible.
After the capture and occupation of
Bloemfontein Gen. Roberts moved his army
toward Pretoria at a rapid pace. Occasion
al Boer victories were reported, such as
that at Sanna's post on March 80, when Col.
Broadwood's forces were badly routed
with a loss of seven guns, and the disaster
at Reddersburg the following day, which
resulted in the loss of 500 English troops,
but in the main the British were successful
and the war office at London and the Eng
fish people began to feel that the war was
about over. They could not at that time
see another two years and more of fighting
before them.
On April 5 Gen. Methuen retrieved a part
Of the %laurels he had lost in the earlier
part of the struggle by the capture of a con

South Africa It was generally estimated
that the two republics had been able to
place in the field an arm of from IS, 900 to
$1,000 men, though DR.. Leyds, the diplomat
ic agent Of the Transvaal in Europe,
claimed that they had not less than loo, 900
men under arms.
The first battle of the war was fought at
Glencoe, Natal, October 20, 1899, when the
Beers were defeated and their position
captured by Gen. William Penn Symons,
who paid for his victory with his own life,
and the loss of some 43 men killed and 200
wounded. This was followed the following
day with a battle at Elaandslaagte in which
Gen. French commanded the English troops
and Gen. Koek the Beers. The Beers were
defeated with a loss of 100 killed and 300

Orange Free State, crossed the undefended
borders of English territory, prepared to
strike quick and decisive blows if possible
before England could prepare for the CON
fict.
Tae Beers were by no means unprepared
for such a conflict. The heavy revenue de-
rived by the government for a number of
years previously had been judiciously ex-
pended for defense, and they had stored
away at Pretoria guns that were far SUI
perior to anything that England could use
against them for a considerable time after
tina opening of hostilities. Their army was
composed almost wholly Of volunteers, but
they we're volunteers who were well trained
in fighting methods of their own, methods
OF which England knew but little, and was
not prepared to meet.
The armed strength of England in South
Africa was at that time some 1900 men of

On September | Gen. Roberts had issued
a proclamation annexing the Transvaal to
the British domains. He continued in SUI
preme command until November 80, 1900.
when he turned over the command to Gen.
Kitchener and prepared to return to Eng
land. He can scarcely have realized the task
he was leaving to the fearless officer whose
%laurels had been won on the battlefelds of
Egypt, and who, as chief of staff had done
so much toward the success 30 far attained
by English rms in the South African con-
fict. His training was Of the kind that
gave him a special fitness for the work

chief of the Boer army in the conflicts with
the savage natives, a position which he re-
tanned until 1877, when England annexed
the country to Cape Colony.
During the war for independence, which
virtually began and ended at Majuba Hill,
he served as vice president of the trium-
virate which governed the country. In
1888 he was elected to the presidency of the
republic, and was thrice reelected, holding
the position so long as his land which he
had helped to build remained an independ-
ent nation, though for the past two years
he has been forced to reside in Europe, his
advanced age precluding the possibility of
his taking any part in the active military
campaign.
In his younger days he was a great hunter,
and during the long trekking trip from
Cape Colony to the Transvaal he is credited
with having killed no less than $50 lions.

left, however, in command OF the Ladysmith
relief expedition, and after three failures
succeeded in accomplishing that purpose on
March l, 1900.
While Gen. Butler was meeting with de-
feat along the Tugela, Gen. Methuen was
making but little if any advance toward the
relief Of Kimberly. He was opposed by Gen.
Cronje. He suffered a serious reverse at
Magersfontein, on December II, and was
forced to fall back to the Modder river
with Q loss of about 1000 out of $4,000 he
had engaged. In this battle the Gordon
Highlanders lost nearly 700 officers and
men in a vain attempt to carry the Boer
position.
On December 10 Gen. Catscrs attempted
q surprise on the Boer troops at Stromberg,

ing of Gen. Whites force at L~adysmith
practically the whole of the British force in
South Africa was besieged in three places,
and England realized that the subiugation
Of the burghers meant more than a holiday
parade OF her troops. The home govern
ment began immediate preparations for the
sending of large reinforcements, and Gen.
Sir Redvers Butler was assigned to chief
command. He undertook the relief of Lady
smith and assigned to Gen. Lord Methuen
the task of raising the siege at Kimberly.
Additional levies OF troops to the num-
Der OF $1,000 were poured into Durham, Ma
tai, and with these Gen. Butler attempted
the relief Of Ladysmith, the garrison at
which place was being hard pressed by the
Beers, who were determined to force a sur
render before assistance could come to the
besieged town. 1t was on December Is that

though the end may not be just to our Xix
ing, it IS enough that we go back through
the more than three years Of the wars his
tory and recall some of the battles, the
deeds Of daring and bravery, the skilled
generalship of leaders on both sides that
have marked this conflict, now closed, as
one OF the memorable struggles of the past
quarter OF a century and more.
The real opening Of the war may be said
to have been October 8, 1899, at which time
President Kruger sent to England the per
emptory demand that that nation return
a satisfactory answer to the demands of the
South African republic on or before 5
O'Clock p. m, October II, and that failure
to DO so would be regarded as a formal
declaration of war. These demands in.
