AUSTRALIAN osTRICHEs.
South Africa Losing Her Supremacy
for Feathers.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
While the ostrich farms of the Aneri-
can southwest have proved themselves so
successful that the raising of the domestic
plumes may be considered an indus
trial fixture, ostrich farming in Australia
is fast booming to the front, and sending
out a feathery product which is far SUI
perior than any ever derived from Africa
itself In speaking of this subject last
week the manager of a big New York
ostrich feather house said:
at was only about the time that we ven
tured to produce ostrich feathers In the
United States that a South African visitor
travelling through Australia suggested the
feasibility of ostrich farming in that coun-
try. The right sort of country and the
right sort of climate obtained there. he
said, make the venture a success even
beyond that Of sheep farming. Within the
following year the first Australian ostrich
farm was started in Sydney suburb
The farm is located near one of the
immense headlands guarding the entrance
TO Port jackson, and commands a mag
niifcent panoramic view of the waters of
the broad Pacific. KraaIs were built ex-
acuy as the animals are housed in Africa
and twenty-five fine, healthy birds were
imported and fed on maize and vegetable
matter. The supply of water on the farm
IS limited, but it Is found that ostrtches
require but little water to thrive. a fact
which would suggest our own semi-arid
zones as splendidly adapted to this sort
of farming.
THE experience In raising the birds
and gathering their feathers is practically
the same In Australia as it Is with us
the animals thrive even better under their
new conditions than they did in their ma
tive land-and it's safe to say we are not
going TO have monopoly in plume harvest
ing. One of the ostriches on the Sydney
farm yielded feather twenty-seven inches
long and fifteen inches wide and of the
purest white. In South Africa the animals
mature at three years, but with us and in
Australia two and half years is their full
time. The feathers. of course, are most
valuable when the bird Is matured
After the feathers are clipped they are
carefully strung and dried after which
they are graded for the workshop Owing
to more favorable climatic conditions and
to better care and food, the feathers are
superior to any sent from Africa, and there
is a ready sale for them in the open mar
ket. where the supply just now Is unable
to meet the demand
The same advantage found In arriving
at speedy maturity and in securing super
Tor feathers is likewise obtained In the
matter of Matching young ostriches The
old birds a rule breed three times in
two years. usually in the cooler months
when they lay as high twenty-eight
eggs, out of which 1t Is safe to count OH
80 per cent Matching. The young birds
grow amazingly fast. and within few
years a farm. starting with only ten birds,
ought to number several hundred.

Dutch Will Rule South Africa.

W. II. Stead in Booklovers Magazine.
The Dutch are better men on the land
than the English Mr.. Rhodes affirmed 1t
as strongly as Benjamin Kidd. Not only
are they better men, but they are much
cleverer politicians. DIR. Gordon Sprigg.
the present premier of Cape Colony, told
me last year that the rough Dutch farmers
from the back country had such a natural
ntuitive genius for politics that after three
weeks in parliament they could give points
to any British member who had been in
the house for months.
Not only are they better men all round
on the land, not only are they ADLER poll
ticians all round in the houses of parlia
ment but what is far more important. they
are better breeders of men The British
colonist, following the example of the
Frenchman and the New Highlander.
shrinks from the primal task of multiplying
and increasing and replenishing the earth.
The Dutch cradle is never empty. If the
hand that rocks the cradle sways the
world, it is not less true that the race that
fills the cradle will possess the world.
Hence the destiny of South Africa seems
tolerably certain to be that of n federation
of sef-governng states, pre-eminently
Dutch. which will or will not be sheltered
by the union jack. according to the readi-
ness of the imperial government to recog-
nize that it has authority over Afri-
canderS.

Divorce in Russia,

From the New York Tribune.
Divorce is difficult in Russia, both by
reason of the laws delay and the cost of
actions. but the annulment of marriage for
informality is simple and easy. In some

Is enacted with this contingency in view
The certificates may be left undated, or the
ages of the contracting parties omitted. In
some parts of Little Russia relative. dur

THE BLOW FROM BEHIND; or Some Features
of the Anti-ImperialisI Movement Attending the
War with Spain. BY Fred C. Chambcrlin,
LIB. Boston: Lee g. Shepard.
The author of this work delivered an adj
dress last Memorial day before a G. A. R.
post at Burlington, Vermont, embracing in
the main the substance of the book he now
presents 1t was so cordially received that
he was impelled to extend and to publish
it as book, In direct REPUTATION of the
ISLANDERS leveled at the American admins
tration and paciication of the Philippines
He purposely delayed publishing the book
until after the congressional campaign of
last autumn had closed, in order that the
work, as he expresses it, might deal with
the question in a national rather than a
partisan spirit. 1t is a sweeping reply to
the charges brought by the anti-imperialists
under the direction of Mr.. Edward Atkin-
son. Mr. Chamberlin traces the record
or the American campaign in the islands,
Indicating the military and diplomatic rea-
sons which forced the occupancy OF Manila
and ultimately of the entire archipelago
He shows conclusiyely that the false repre-
sensations of Americans standing for anti
imperialism were the main cause of the
prolongation of the inSurrection and the
loss of life. The book is an emphatic
forceful reJonder, and compacts the records
and facts into convenient form for future
reference. 1t closes with an eloquent re-
view of the benefcent undertakings of this
government in the Philippines and declares
that correct type of the governments
work in this difficult field is furnished by
the example of Col. Guy Howard eldest son
of Maj. Gen. O. o. Howard, retired, who
intrusted with a dangerous task on river
In luZon, was mortally wounded and before
dying called out to his men, Whatever
happens to me, keep the launch going!r
His men did keep the launch going and
thereby saved Gen. Lawton from perilous
predicament. The American launch Mr.
Chamberlin believes, will be kept going
uespite the clamors and the misrepresenta-
blows from behind"
THE STORY OF THE TRAPPER. By A. c. Laut,
author of ''Heralds Of Empire,' etc Illus
trated. New York: d. Appleton & Co.
The author has brought to the fireside and
easy chair the great north country, the pine
woods and streams of nearer Canada, the
barren lands beyond the timber line and the
snowy wastes of the Arctic circle, where
the hunter seeks the silver fox He tells
of the joys. the perils and the tragedies of
the hunters life, and fills his pages with
animal lore and delightful bits OF deScrip-
ton. Historical value attaches to the work
as he traces with detail the history OF the
Hudson Bay Company and the rival fur
companies of the northwest.

MUCH TAXABLE PROPERTY OMITTED.
County Commissioners Of Sand0val County
Find This to Be the Case Steps to Remedy
Defects In Assessments - Information
Gathered for Them by A. E. Perea o.
BernaIill0.

Abel E. Perea, Esq, of Bernalillo,
has spent several days this week in
town obtaining information concern
ing taxable property located in the
new county of Sandoval. He has done
this under and by direction of the
board of county commissioners of that
county and is to report the informa-
tion gathered by him to the board in
special session on July 3, 1903. 1t
seems that at a regular meeting of the
board Of county commissioners of that
county at the county seat on the
first Monday of the present month, the
tasseesor, V. b. Miera was not present.
and that the board could get but lit
tie information concerning the tax
schedules for the present year. A man
by the name of Silva was in charge
of the assessors office, but he claimed
that he was not a deputy assessor.
The board being unable to act as
board of assessments and equaliza-
ton, adjourned for two weeks and
cited the assessor to appear DeIore IL
with all property tax schedules re-
.ceived by him. This was done and
the board found that considerable
part Of the taxable property of the
county had not been returned for as
sessment purposes, and that none OF
the land grants appeared among the
tax schedules. After advising with

ney, the members of the board en-
ployed Mr.. Perea to collect for them

submit such to the board at a special

able to report taxable property to the
amount of several hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars for the attention and
