The British colonial secretary recent
II appointed the famous novelist H.
Rider Haggard. author of 'She'' and
1.-THE Brethren" a commissioner to in
quire into the conditions Of the agri-
cultural and Industrial land settlements
organized in America by the Salvation
Army. 1t is said the trustees Of the
estate of Cecil Rhodes are paying the
expense Of the inquiry with the view Of
applying the scheme to South Africa.
1t may be news to many that Mr.. Hag.
gard is regarded as an expert ON agri-
cultural subjects. He was the advo-
cate Of a scheme to carry cabbages
and other garden products by mail. 1t
was his idea that one Of the most seri-

ate by President Roosevelt nearly two
years ago. Nothing could be found
against him except his color, and the
appointment was finally confirmed.
T'r. Crum is not IN eX-slave. On the
contrary, the members Of his family,
so far from being slaves. were them
selves slave oWncrs and DR.. Crum's
father had an extensive plantation at
O~rln-churg, s. c., with forty-three
slaves, when the civil war began. The
present collector was born in 1859 and
Wa therefore too young to serve in the
army wien the civil war began. His
older brothers determined that he

Carolina university. He had to leave

became Il physician and built up a
large practice. He bought a drug

The governor of the state made him
a surgeon in the national guard. and he
was Il medical officer at the recruiting
station in Charleston during the Span
ish war. He became Il lecturer Mt the
Negro hospital and was commissioner
of the negro department of the Charles
ton exposition.
Special interest attaches to the Crum
appointment and its final confirmation
because it is held to be indicative Of
the presidents policy. Mr.. Roosevelt
declared that If anything could be
shown against the character Of DIR.
Crum he would withdraw the nominal
ton. but that he would not withdraw
it simply because Of his color. Moth
ing d%erogatory to his character was
shown. and the president continued to
appoint him until the senate finally
confirmed the nomination.

Is greatly interested in South Africa,
some of his best known stories having
their scene of action in that part Of the

The author is very gallant to the fair
sex. Mrs. Haggard not long ago want
ed to engage 4 "lady help'-a title
given to g~entlewomen who through ne
cess!ty take positions as upper serv-
ants and generally oversee the affairs
OF the household. To this step Mr..
Haggard was decidedly opposed.

my seat and wait on her myself"
The Haggards have no 'lady help"
New York city. with its subways and
subauneous tunnels, finished, under
way and projected. is the scene of a
vast underground activity requiring
the exercise of high engineering skill.
Much of the success thus far met with
in the tunneling of the Hudson and
East rivers is due to the skill and in
ventive genius of Charles NJ. Jacobs,
who stands in the front rank Of the
engineers of his time.
Mr.. Jacobs is chief engineer of the

first tunnel under the Hudson. a tube

under the East river to that part Of
Greater New York known as Long Is
land City. The tunnels of this system
will meet in Manhattan Island ut Thir.
ty-second street and Seventh avenue,
where there will be a great central sta.
ton.
Mr.. Jacobs Overcame great obstacles
IN bringing to completion the first Hud-
son river tunnel, and devices he en-
ployed reduced the accidents and loss
of life through disease in the construc-
ton Of the tunnel to Il minimum. He
built Il tunnel under the Thames in
London, and it was in the English cap
ital that the late Austin Corbin of the
Long Island railroad discovered him.
Mr.. Corbin engaged him to plan i'm
provements the Long Island road had
then in contemplation. Mr.. Jacobs. who
is now on the shady side of sixty, is still
in full vigor. and his soldierly bearing
and firm mouth give the impression of
a man of much strength.
