Beers Must Surrender by july ~ IN
Order to Receive Benefit OF
Peace Terms.

Cape Town, June 12.-An extraordi-
nary issue of the Official Gazette fixes
July 10 as the limit in which the Beers
or rebels who surrender will receive
the benefit of the peace terms. All reb-
els surrendering before that date will
be merely disfranchised for life and
will not be subject to trial or punish
ment. Exception is made in the case
of field comets and justices of the
peace, who may be tried and fined or
imprisoned, but they will not be exc
cuted. Rebels who hold out after July
10 will be subject to the extreme pen
a1tv for high treason.

1O,21G,733. Then they have 1902 wood
en- sailing vessels, 677 iron, and 4o3
steel. the whole having a total tonnage
of .96p.O26. The United States has
total of 1886 vessels, with a net tom
mage cf 3,077 ,344, but with this call on
their great liners they may pretty well
claim TO ''have the legs" of the world.
Norway is third in point of numbers of
vessels-2, 321, but Germany, while hav-
ing 445 craft fewer, beats Norway's
tonnage record of 1,627,220 by 1875
SOP. The British empire owns more
than a third of the vessels in the world,
and her tonnage of 14,70S,206 out of
total Of 80 1000, SO is immense. Since,
however. they lost the Leyland line,
and the right to call these latest
transfers" their own, the position IS
considerably modified.
England is becoming accustomed to
the Americanizing process. Had the
attempt to collar their fleets been
made half a dozen years ago, there
would have been such an cutlery as
ENGLAND had not known for a century.
In every phase of life in England,
American influence is becoming more
and more obtrusive, until to-day the
descendants of the men who went to
America to make their fortunes re-
turn to England to exploit the old
country. England is fast becoming
simply a business branch of America.

dreamed of by their author, who loved
the thought of only that part of Eng
land 'yet uncursed by trade:"
'Iet wealth and commerce, laws and learn

But leave us still our old nobility"
This is likely o be their only remain

the states, for very soon there will be

Propress of the Strike.

Wilkesba Pa, June ID. The
work of the strikers in attempting to
bring out all men who are still in the
employ of the coal companies goes
steadily on. Their campaign against
the engineers, firemen and pumpmen
is nearly over, most of these men being
out and the union is now paying more
attention to the fire bosses, clerks and
others who have taken the places of
those who quit. Pressure is being
brought to bear on them in every pos
sible way.

Herbert Gladstone's marriage re-
calls story which was told of him
few years ago. The popular lib
eral whip was addressing women's
suffrage meeting in Leeds one after
noon, and in the course of his speech
he paid a graceful compliment to the
eloquence of the ladies who had adj
dressed the meeting. He further gal
lantIy remarked on the great pleas
ure which it gives the other sex to
listen to women talking; Pausing
for moment after this observation,
Mr.. Gladstone, like his audience, was
thrown into an unexpected state of
merriment by a male voice, which
proceeded from the back of the hall,
and proclaimed in the broadcast York
shire dialect: "Eh, lad, thou'rt moan
wed vet, | see'st!" -London Chron-

sizes a Yale victory ION general prln-
ciples" as in the old days.
Yale's spirit is as fine as ever, but
she begins to suffer from lack o.
numbers. The second college in
America in age, Yale is about the
tenth in numbers, and of course 1T
is harder to get specialists for all
kinds of games from 1850 students
than it is for Harvard from 5000 or
Columbia from 5000. Counting all
who uphold college honors in base
ball, football, rowing, basketball,
tennis, golf, indoor and track attn
letics, with the necessary substitutes,
Yale needs 800 athletes in the upper
classes besides 100 in the freshman
class, as a reserve for future con-
tests; add another hundred who
might become athletes but for tic
desire to become proficient in studies,
or to represent the college as debat-
ers, chess players or in other in
tellectual contests. This is possible
where numbers are considerable.
Princeton has fewer, but Princeton
does not go in for rowing at all, and
can combine forces upon football and
gymnastic work.
Again, Yale, quite as much as Har-
ward, is now the college of very rich
New Workers; and the young mel
who formed the briefly famous "Yale
Criminal Club will not do mucl
either in athletics or in studies. One
Yale student is more famous for hav
| ing lost hundred thousand dollars
at Canfeld's gambling house than fol
any other feat except that of having
| been born a Vanderbilt.

pick up gold off our streets. Not for
ten wears has there been such n rush
to Uncle Sans land. Almost 10000
came in one day. Seventy-three thou
sand came in April. Many are at
tracted by the news of the subway
that New York is digging, and OF the
tremendous amount of work upon
high buildings. These things arc
cleverly played upon by immigration
agents.
The west would hardly know by eN-
perience of the influx. Between 1SSC
and 1890 As per cent. of the immi-
grants went to the northern central
states. During the past ten years
only nine per cent. went thither. The
result was seen in the census of 1900,
which shows such an astounding
growth in North Atlantic cities. Gel
lar digging and kindred Industries in
New York, the making of fall-to-
pieces clothing in New York and
Rochester, the mills of Massachu-
setts and the mines of Pennsylvania
have absorbed most of them. New
Jersey gets almost as many as Hi
nois.
Even the Italians, who for years
led in number among immigrants, arc
now passed by Huns, Russians and
Slavs. The Finnish immigration.
which is of a good class, is beginning
to slacken because a pretty good pro
portion of the Firms are already
here.
The finished year will probably
have seen as many immigrants land
ed as it would make new city Of
Buffalo.

Athletes and Other Things Of

There were rules against spoon
ing in public places and all that
with the result that Asbury Park be-
came a favorite resort with great
many worldly people who have no
use for it's semi-religious features,
but who do appreciate quiet and the
absence of saloons and freak shows
The liberal element has come in such
numbers that it now insists on sep
aration from Ocean Grove and upon
the purchase of Mr.. Bradley's beach.
When these all belong to che village
there will be an end of puritanism
and Asbury Park will become just
like any other seaside place-Gol

rules were drastic. No woman could
put on her bathing gown in her own
house and walk to the beach-no
matter how near. That rule was
good for the Bradley bathhouse. And
no woman could wear bathing gown
not of the most modest description.
Not for weeks did Asbury Park, for
get the sensation when Mrs. Curves"
Allen, a very beautiful artists model,
appeared upon the beach in a close
fitting affair designed to reveal as
much beauty as possible. Wasn't
she hustled off in a hurry? And
wasn't she satisfied with the sensa .
ton? She might have appeared in
that gown for month at Narragan-
sett Pier, and instead of driving her
off the hotel men would have let New
York know about it as an added at
traction.
