BLACK LAB0R ~ SOUTH AFRICA.
The british Propose to Solve the Great
Problem. n Possible.


A Blue Book Just issued in London gives
details Of the plans Of Lord Miner, the
British High COMMISSIONS in South Africa.
for dealing with the troublesome question
Of native labor. The blacks Of South
Africa outnumber the whites seven to
one and are practically the sole depend
ence for labor In the mines and for all kinds
OF rough outdoor work. One great trouble
is that most Of them do not care TO work
after they have earned money enough to
buy a wife or two 10 till their garden patch
and support them at home. Another
difficulty is that their efficiency is half
destroyed IL they get hold OF liquor. Lord
Miner says that il will he a tremendous
undertaking to solve the native b
problem, but by hook or crook the diff
culties in the way must be overcome, for
sthe whole credit Of the administration Is
at stake"
He proposes rigidly to control the liquor
traffic among the blacks. Thu great trouble
at Johannesburg before the war was that
the Boer Government insisted on giving
licenses TO sell liquor TO any one who would
paw the high price they demanded. The
number Of Kafirs employed AT the johann
nesbnrQ mines was about 100. 00o, and before
the war the mine owners had no end OF
trouble in keeping their large gangs OF
workmen sober. the facilities for getting
drunk in that region being unsurpassed.
Black labor Is absolutely necessary at
these mines, for white men cannot take
the place Of the Kafirs. The blacks are
willing TO work for 80 cents a day and
board; white men would, Of course, charge
several times as much, and owing to the
low grade Of the ore, which is not worth
over $40 a ton. the mines could not be worked
al a profit were white labor employed.
Lord Miner does not say how he pro-
poees 10 keep liquor from the black miners:
but perhaps the labor will be hedged around
az il has been for years at the Kimberley
diamond mines by a high fence guarded
as carefully as are the walls OF Sing sins
Prison. After a negro has signed a con-
tract TO work in the diamond mines he IL
kept in the compound all the time that he
is not at work in the mines. He is marched
under guard from the compound to the
mines and back again.
The British are very anxious to open
the gold mines again and resume the in
dustry tina before the war was producing
the larger part Of the wealth OF South
Africa. II will probably take a long time
10 collect the 100. 700 Kaffrs who win be
needed TO dig out the 7,ooo,OCo tons of ore
required a year IL the output is to he worth
as much as it was before the war.

REV. v. S. COLLINS cOMPLlMENTED.
Success of the RehobOth campmeeting Due
Largely TO His Tact in Management.

Campmeeting at Rehoboth ended
Thursday after a successful session.
Statistics show, says the Rehoboth cor
respondent of the EUery EUening, that
the services this year were more large
ly attended than in any previous year.
Owing to the generosity of the Queen
Anne's railroad, the attending minis
ters were mainly from Baltimore, and
they were highly appreciated. Rev.
Vaughan S. Collins displayed much
tact in his management of the camp
meeting services, and his vigorous
cornet playing added greatly to the
spirit and melody of the services.
The ''last days" have reached Reho-
both. The season has been short but
full. Many have packed up to leave
and the outgoing trains carry familiar
faces.

MAMMOTH CORN ON THE EASTERN SHORE

Farmer Near CentrevIIIe, Nd, Tells of the
Rapid Progress Corn is Making There.
A Double Greek farmer was in Cen
treville, Md. the other day says the
Centreville Observer, and told hor
rible tale about the rapid progress corn
is making in that vicinity and the.
fearful consequences of a little boys.
trip out in the corn field. The story
goes: ga little boy climbed a corr
stalk to see how the corn was growing
and now the stalk is growing faster
than the boy can climb down. The
boy is now clean out of sight. Three
men have undertaken to hew down the
stalk with axes and save him, but the
corn grows so fast that they can't hew
twice in the same place. The boy is
living on nothing but raw corn and
has already thrown down four bushels
of cobs."
Speaking of big crops, country
paper in Nebraska insists that corncobS
will go to waste this year because they
are too big to use in the ordinary
furnaces and the small number Of saw
mills in the State prevents any otheE
use of them, unless the railroad COM
panles will employ them for ties.
