CONSERVATION IN BERLIN

Renewal Of War In German Southwest
Il Africa Feared.
III Berlin, Aug. 1I.-Consternation has
been caused at the colonial Office by
the news that the Hottentot chief,
Norengo, had recrossed the frontier
of Cape Colony into German South
west Africa with 400 followers. It is
feared that the rebel chief will give
the German troops long and tedious
work In the mountainous region Of
the southern part Of the colony. It
Is assumed that the work of bringing
the German troops back from South
Africa. which has been going on for
about six months. will forthwith be
discontinued.

A RISING Sport.

club has been formed among some
New York amateur climbers of build
ings. steeples and precipitous heights
Gus sport that has hitherto been fol-
lowed alone or. in couples, says the
New York Sun. 1t is mountain climb
ing in miniature, and may be toiloWeu
wherever access may be gained TO
building or stack of chimneys where
the holds are practicable for an ascent
and descent. The coming down is as
daring in risks u the ascent, usually,
and affords the best sport. Manhat-
tan's skyscrapers. it is thought, Will
afford opportunity for many thrilling
climbs. Should young men be noted
soon climbing in fly fashion TO the
SUBMITS of the tall buildings they will
be recognized as members of the new
club.
A club in London is the model of the
club here. In that great metropolis the
extreme grimness of the holds on build
ings is an inconvenience to counter
balance the attractions of the sport,
and whenever possible the London
club holds its meetings in the open
country. Ropes and graphing irons.
life lines climbing ladders and climb
ing irons fastened to the feet, are the
the chief tools of the sportsmen, the
outfit being not unlike the building
scaling appliances of our fire fighters.
The New York club, should it follow
the example of the British one, and
seek the country, may find some risky
climbs along the Palisades of the Hud-
son.
Yet one of the most successful re-
cent excursions of the London club
was to burrow into the earth and not
to climb aloft This was an explora
ton of the Dene Holes, situated near
BeXley, on an estuary of the Thames
a little below London. Dene Holes are
believed to be the work of the ancient
Britons, and to be 1000 years old or so.
The holes are found in clusters of fifty
or sixty. and suggest the idea of a
community. 1t has been suggested
than the Britons dug them to escape
from the Romans. At all events they
are carefully constructed and may
have served as strongholds as well as
places Of refuge during piratical for
avs along the coast in ancient tines.
Each hole is circular shaft about
feet inches in diameter and from 40
feet to 100 feet deep. The shafts are
sunk thru Thanet sand until they reach
the chalk, where they end in two or
more low rooms. Those visited We're
in SANKEY'S woods, Bexley. which is
literally honeycombed with the shafts.
and as they are concealed by bushes
of ash. elder and hazel, the explorers
had to proceed with caution to avoid
a too hasty descent There are SINH
lar holes near Gravesend.

His passion for country life has led
Mr. Paderewski the famous pianist, to
establish farm ON his estate in Pol

cupies his time in rearing live stock
and growing agricultural produce.
During a previous visit to this coun-
try Paderewski thru an agent, bought
some prize pigs from farmer in Els
sex who was quite unaware of the,
real profession of the purchaser.
A day or two later Paderewski Wis
tied the farm without disclosing his

farmer led the pianist to sty and
showed him a fine lot of pigs. re-
marking confidently:

them to Mr.. Paderewski, the great pig

Stockers and Feeders.


The supply was larger this week
than ii has been In long time, and
consequently competition WAS not so
keen. Some pretty good feeding cattle
were bought at prices which looked
15M20c lower than a week ago. AS
usual there was nothing choice on the
market and the trading was limited 10
the light and medium stockers for
which there was a very limited de-
mand. There was plenty of demand for
the high-class heavy feeders, but MOTH
ing of the kind was available. Some
that sold up to $4.75 buyers did not
consider very good. A large proportion
of the supply of stockers sold at S35o
md with only few feeder sales above
$3.50
Mixers and Sprinsers.
Prices for the poor and medium
grades have slumped off mostly $500
from best figures paid week ago ana
sellers had to let some low grade Kinds
go to killers Receipts were small but
there were still enough offerings to
fill demands. Few cows sold above s4S
and a good kind at $40. Medium to
good grades made S29@3S and poor
class sold down to $40.
Butcher Stock.
Sellers say prices last week were
simply too high and this week buyers
have gone about to put the range down
to normal basis. Their success has
been plainly evident In the big drop
which prices suffered.
Conditions are now the poorest OF
the season, but this greatly lowered
level Of prices has been expected for
some time.
Only a strictly fat kind Of COWS sold
above $3.50. and those at the latter
price were as good as cows which made
$425 and higher a week ago. A pretty
good kind sold at $3.15@ $50. and plain
to fair grassy lots at $2.60M2.S5.
Gamers and Cutters.
Prices all along the line We're 10M zoe
lower than early this week, and 1t took
good Gamers to land at $l.75W1.9O.
while some inferior went down to
SIPS. Cutters sold at $2.15@2.50, and 9.
fair kind at $2.35. The big drop in
values for beef cows and heifers has
influenced much weaker trade In this
line. which promises to continue in
force.
