HEAR KAFFIR BOYS
An Interesting Entertainment by
Young Africans Given at
Y. M. c. A. Auditorium.
DIRECTED BY ]. H. BALMER
Customs of Native Negroes Told by
Traveller and Miss Elsie Clark
Illustrated in Detail.

The program given by the Kafir
Boys choir at the Y NJ. C. A. auditori
um last evening under the direction OF
j. II. Balmer was one of the most in
structive and interesting entertain
ments ever presented under the asso-
citation auspices. The five native Kaf-
fir boys who compose the choir range
from 3 to II years in age. They were
taken from their savage stage and ed
ucated and trained by Mr.. Balmer. who
is a noted traveller and lecturer. Mr..
Balmer is a native of England, but has
devoted many years to work in the saw
age tribes of central and southern
Africa.
Show Wedding Customs.
The boys gave an entertaining pro-
gram of songs. and Mr.. Balmer and
his assistant, Miss Elsie Clark. a brilli-
ant Anglo-Afrikander. gave instructive
accounts of the life and customs of
the native negro tribes of Africa. One
of the unique features of the program
was the representation of a Kaffir we'd
ing given by the company. The we'd
ding custom of the native tribe in
cludes the purchase of the bride by the
groom, who pays for her in oxen, five
head being a minimum price. The
groom then sends friend to bring the
bride to her husband-to-be. and as
rule the envoy is required to forcibly
take the girl.
Mr.. Balmer in an interesting manner
discussed the conditions of life among
the native tribes. one of the interesting
subjects treated being polygamy. He
made the astonishing statement that
10 per cent of the native children die
in infancy, and attributed this fact to
the lazy, careless life of the people.
The entertainment was deserving of
a much larger audience.

SHOWS HIS INDEPENDENCE

Excepting NoVoe vremya, Con-
servative Organ.

st. Petersburg, Feb. 27.-The ukase
cOnvoking the national assembly for
May 10, which was issued against the
desires of the reactional element at
court, has been followed by further
strong evidence that the emperor has
wrenched himself free from old infiu-
ences. setting at naught the opinion
of the cabinet and a large majority
of the council of the empire. His ma
jesty has rejected the proposed law
providing for extension of trial by
court martial for political offenses to
all parts of the empire. which was the
cause of Timiriazeff leaving the cab
met. and accepting the view of the
minority that there is no justification
for such law in constitutional state
elections to parliament.
The emperor also rejected the pro-
ject authorizing troops to fire If they
are insulted," and forbidding firing of
volleys or blank cartridges during
street disturbances.

The commissioner holds the act to
regulate commerce does not authorize
the commission to compel the estab-

carriers and not to describe the devi-
sions of joint rates or conditions of in

fail to agree in respect there to and it
therefore concludes Notwithstanding
the combination rates complained of

AUTOMOBILES rN M1NINe

One of the most important factors IN
the transportation problem in the
desert regions of the southwest is the
automobile. There are scores of these
modern vehicles in the Nevada, Ari.
zona and southern California deserts
1t is less than a year since the first
long automobile trip was attempted in
eastern Nevada, on which OCCASION the
auto boke down. Today these vehicles
are in use as a means Of quick, con.
v%enient and comfortable travel be
tween camps where the railroad has
not been built, and, without doubt, the
auto is going TO prove of great vaiu@
in penetrating the undeveloped and I'M
prospected regions of the desert, where
heretofore the burro and p~rospector
afoot were the only invaders of the
desert silence and solitude.-Mining
