values Of coin and bullion, but that
has since been proved to be without
foundation.
Paul Kruger was married in 1912
to Miss Maria du Pleasis, a young
woman of French extraction from
south of the Vaal River. They lived
happily together until 1891, when his
wife died.
The story Of Paul Kruger's life,
aside from his career as a soldier and
statesman. is full of adventure and
daring such as the brains of the fiction
writer's and story makers could hard
ly imagine. In the conquest of Natal,
the Orange Free State and lastly the
Transvaal from the blacks and the
wild beasts he bore a foremost and
fearless part.
President Kruger was a deeply re-
ligious man. His early education.
like that of other Boer boys. as far as
books were concerned, consisted in
writing, figuring and reading. The
Bible was literally the book" in every
family and while yet young man he
knew it from beginning to end and
believed in it literally. He was one
of the regular preachers Of the "Dop-
per" church in Pretoria, to which he
belonged.

HELD DOWN BY WRECKAGE.


men at once haste=ed TO the relief of
those who were pinned down under the
wreckage. who were shieking piteously
for aid. The scene of the wreck is two
miles from any station and much delay
ensued before some Of the injured who
were held down by heavy timbers could
be extricated. Nothing could be done
for them until lifting machinery came
from Chicago Heights.
Men were sent running along the
tracks TO both Chicago Heights and
Glenwood for aid and in a short time
trains bearing physicians and supplies
for the wounded were on their way
from both stations. The first train to
arrive on the scene was from Chicago
Heights and carried six physicians. A
short time afterward a second train ar
rived from Glenwood, bringing addi-
tional physicians and number of
nurses.
Darkness had fallen when the second
train arrived and the work of rescue
and relief went on by the light of huge
bonfires that were built along the side
Of the track. A regular relief train was
made up at Glenwood as soon as possi-
BILE and every preparation made to
bring the dead and injured to the city.
It was nearly 10 o'clock when the last
of the injured had been taken from the
wreckage and a half hour later than
that time when the temporary dress
ing had been applied TO the last wound
and the train. carrying it's woeful bur-
den, started for the city.

PAUL KRUGER DIES IN SWITzERLA AND
Continued From Page /, Column !

Commandant He held this position
during the civil war of 1860 and by his
bravery, quick action and skill brought
the struggle to a close.
In 1859, under the Presidency of Won
Reinsburg Kruger was made Com
mandant General of all the Transvaaal
forces, when engaged in war with the
Kaffirs and other tribes, and in the
face of overwhelming numbers he han
died the affairs most advantage geously
and forced peace.
In 1876 he was elected Vice President,
which office he held until the annexa-
ton of the Transvaal was proclaimed
in behalf of Great Britain by Sir
Theophilus Shepstone in 1877.
AS leader of the triumvirate COM
posed of Praetorius. Joubert and him
self he stood out in strenuous opposI-
tion to annexation and for the indie
pendence of the Transvaal, as guaran-
teed by the Sand River convention of
1852 To Sir Bartle Frere he appeared
always obdurate on This point, always
saying: we want our country back;
we will take nothing less than our
country, and will not rest day or night
until we get it.
He was a leading spirit in the revolt
of 1SS0-S1 and took an active part in
the direction of affairs at the battle of
Majuba Hill, where the British were
disastrously defeated and compelled to
make a peace. conceding the inde-
pendence of the Transvaal.
REORGANIZES REPUBLIC.
The war being over Kruger took a
ort IN no r1iz a rf
the Republic and by his wise and mod
crate counsels did much to heal the
differences that had been engendered
by the events of the five years pre-
ceding.
In 1888 he was elected to the Presi-
dency for five years, and reelected in
1888 and 1898, and again TO his fourth
term in 1898. long before he had began
! to suspect the intentions of the British
in regard to the Boer republics.
After circumventing the aims of the
Jameson raiders and their hackers in
1896 he began to prepare for the life or
death struggle which he saw to be near
at hand.
1t came October u, 1899, and under
ordinary circumstances his foresight
and preparedness. backed by his brave
burghers and their skillful leaders,
might have crowned their struggle
with success. 1t was decreed other
wise, however. and after contest al
most unprecedented in history the war
came to an end in May, 1902.
The history of that war and Presi-
dent Kruger's part therein is of too
recent happening to be dealt with
here.
SEEKS REFUGE IN EUROPE.
His advanced age forbade active SER.
vice in the field on his part, so soon
after the capture of Pretoria by Lord
Roberts in 1900 he left his country by
way of Lorenzo Marquee and sought
refuge in Europe, where he remained
until his death, rendering until the
close of the war such assistance to his
still struggling countrymen. in the way
of sending men and supplies. as cir
cumstances would permit.
