South African Constitution.

London.-The House of Commons

South African constitution bill Mon.

bate, former Premier Balfour said
that the House, in dealing with the
question of a constitution for the fed
Grafton of South African colonies-the
Transvaal. Cape Colony, the Orange
River state and Natal-was discussing
one of the most important events in
the history of the British empire.
The race problem. Balfour said, was
but fractional part of the great ques-
tions Parliament was now deciding.
He strongly denied that it was in
tended to give the cClored races equal
ity with Europeans. Declaring it
would be impossible to give equal
rights to the colored races without
threatening the whcle fabric OF civili-
cation.
In the opinion of Balfour, the best
hope for the solution of this great
problem was to place absolute and i'm
plicit confidence in the representative
institution the South Africans are now
creating, and for the home government
not to meddle with it.

WILL HONOR HAML|N
Native State to Celebrate Gen.

Known as "The Great commoner
and Won Hearts Of People by
20 Fight Against SIavery-Vice-
President Under Lincoln.

Paris Hill, Me.-In Paris Hill,
spot so picturesque that it has been
called the Switzerland Of Maine"
the centenary of the birth of Hannibal
Hamlin, vice-president of the United
States during Lincoln's first term,
will be celebrated on August 27. The
exercises will be held in connection
with the first old-home week IN
Maine, and will bring to the birth
place of the most beloved son of the
Pine Tree state not only distinguished
statesmen of the day, but also sol
diers who fought in the civil war and
men who were conspicuous in the al
fairs of the state of that period. This
gathering perhaps will be one of the
last of men who gained fame in
the fight for the freedom of the negro.
The Loyal Legion of Maine will erect
a bronze tablet to Hamlin, and the
exercises promise to be unique and to
emphasize the services of such man
to his country.
No more picturesque spot could be
found in the country than the Paris
Hill. The view from the old home in
which Hamlin was born takes in the
Androscoggin valley, which, broken
by forests and villages, stretches to
the ranges of hills and mountains that
almost encompass Paris Hill. The
foothills of the White mountains are
discernible to the west, and on clear
summer day the White mountains
themselves can be seen in the dis.

Once social celebrity, with a gor-

"The queen has swooned" AS he
stepped forward his friends applauded
vociferously. Bowing his thanks, he
faced the king and said, in a high
pitched voice: "The swoon has
queened."
There was a roar Of laughter; but
he waited patiently, and made an
other attempt:
1.-The sween has cooned."
Again the walls trembled and the
stage manager said in voice which
could be heard all over the house:
Come off, you doggoned fool"
But the ambitious amateur refused
to surrender, and in rasping fall

Hamlin won the hearts of the peo

and he proved his courage by leaving
the Democratic party when it fell into
the control of the supporters of slave
traffic. He could have been candidate
for the presidency in 1856, but refused
1t. He accepted the nomination for

Hamlin was member of the house
of representatives at 80. and at 33 he

slave question. His defeat only
reused him to greater activity against
the growth of slavery. He was elected
to the United States senate In 1S4s
and reelected in 1850. In 1856 he
was elected governor of Maine. He
was hailed as one of the fathers OF
