kRueER's MESSAGE TO eoERs.
Significance in Honors Paid to the
Dead Leader.

The body of Paul Kruger was laid
to rest in Pretoria on Friday. Beers
of all factions, those who from the
first supported Krugerism as well as
those who did not; commanders of
Kruger's armies, and those who served
in the ranks; Englishmen who fought
against Kruger and the British govern
ment that overwhelmed him, all par
ticipated in the ceremony at the grave
Of ''the lion of the Transvaal."
The most notable tribute paid the
Boer leader who organized resistance
to British encroachment was the firing
of salute of twenty-one guns by the
order of the sovereign Of the British
empire. Under this order the former
president of the South African repub-
lie received the salute that would
have been fired over his grve by his
own people had he died in Office and at
the zenith Of his power.
This recognition by the conquering
nation Of the rank and the services of
the leader Of a conquered people must
have been very grateful not only to
Gen. Botha and his generals, but to
all Of the humber followers of the
Boer president.
In view of the fact that Krugerism
is a factor In the transitional struggle
in the Transvaal, the action Of King
Edward in ordering the salute fired
over the grave of Kruger was not only
gracious, but polite. No one has
clearly defined what Krugerism is in
its application to the present situation
in South Africa, but If Paul Kruger's
last message to his people urging
them to preserve their national spirit
is Krugerism then IT must be dealt
with in the spirit Of the treaty Of
peace signed May 81, 1902.
In that treaty the fighting Boer
generals surrendered on the promise
that their people should be given or
should retain representative institu-
tions. The Boer contention was that
the Beers should retain their language
and should constitute a self-governing
Boer state under British sovereignty.
This is not inconsistent with Kruger's
last message to preserve then nation
al or Boer spirit. Chicago Inter

CARRY MARMosET IN MuFF.
Latest Fad InduIged In by Women Of
Philadelphia.

Latest Fad Indulged In by Women Of
Philadelphia.
A new fad among women which will
appeal to the class who went in for
pet chameleons several years ago is
the carrying Of pet marmosets in the
big muffs that are still the correct
thing in furs. The marmoset is a
small. squirrel-like monkey hailing
from South America.
A woman who appeared on Chest
nut street with one of the little ami
mails in her possession created some
thing of sensation. She was equip
ped with huge mum, trimmed with
animal heads, and several pedestrians
who took a peep at the muff saw two
heads ON one side and only one on the
other. A second later there was only
one animal head on each end of the
muff.
couple of men remarked that per
haps the mulI bearer had dropped one
of the heads, but when the third head
again popped into view the expression
on their faces indicated that they
were wondering if they required sani-
tarium treatment. They kept the muir
in view until the extra head disap-
peared again and reappeared on the
opposite side of the fur. This time
they got better view and saw that
the active head belonged to a marmo-

Story Of Robins That Went Fishing

story Of Robins That Went Fishing.
An extraordinary incident was wit
messed recently by sportsman at BIZ
cester.
Noting a party of five robins for
aging about among the pebbles in the
bed of small stream, from which
they constantly flew on to a neigh
boring wall carrying some live object
in their beaks, he followed a bird to
its perch Kicking about on the top
of the wall he found small sickle
back.
Retiring a few yards he then kept
watch, and found that the birds cap
tured their prey and held it crosswise
after the fashion of a kingfisher. BIT
they made no attempt to kill their vic
Tins before eating them, as the king
fisher does.

Music, says the London Globe, has
always played a great part in fighting
and Lord Wolseley declares that
troops that sing as they march will
not only reach their destination more
quickly, and in better fighting condi-
tion than those who march in silence,
but inspired by the music and words
Of national songs will feel that self
confidence which IS the mother OF vic
tory. In the Japanese army it is the
custom for the soldiers to sing as
they go into battle and rush to the
charge The practice was remarked
during the operations of the allied
Powers against Pekin. Their favorite
song is the ''Kimi Gayo," or national
anthem, which has been Englished as
follows:
May ur lords dominion last
TIL a thousand years have passed
Twice four thousand time oertold
Firm as changeless rock, earth rooted.
Moss Of ages uncomputed.
In the Russian army tests were
made few years ago to fint the value
of marching songs, and the results
so confirmed Lord Wolseley's dlctum
that the regulations now decree that
regiments on march and in advancing
to charge shall sing national songs.
