Capt. John Cassin was detached in 1912
in order to command the Norfolk navy

appointed navy agent, but in short time
resigned and the agents duties devolved

marines and seamen from the yard with
stores. AT that time the militia officers
of the District were in the habit of TAX
ing workmen from their employment
at the yard TO attend the muSters. Capt.
Tingey protested against this on the
ground that their employment in the
yard was more effective for the defense
of the city than attending musters. In

In releasing Dinuzula, General
Botha has combined Il wise act of
Cancellation towards the South Afri-
can native with a frank remembrance
of an old frienr. After the death of
Cetewayo in 1884, the Zulu nation
was split in two factions. Dinuzula
then young man, was challenged by
usibequ, and appealed for Boer aid
General Lukas Meyer led large
party of Boer farmers into Zululand

was routed by their aid. One of these

In gratitude of these auxiliaries
Dinuzula made over 5000 square miles
of northwest Iululand to them, and
they founded there the New Republic

Independence of the New Republic

country is imbued with the military
spirit through General Baden Powelrs
boys scout movement
The war department, of course. is
doing its best to keep abreast of the
movement, and in some respects is
even outdoing Germany.
The latest fad is that soldiers should
be practiced during peace time in
slaughtering animals. In some COM
mands at any rate, officers command
ing companies are now instructed to
buy sheep to slaughter them and serve
them out as rations to their men.
No wonder, then, that the sorely
tired British officer, who is thus asked
to become a master butcher even in
time Of peace, is raising his voice in
protest.
He has to find the rations and sell
any other portions of the carcass
which may not be needed, in order
to recoup himself for the initial out
lay he has been put to. Another un-
pleasant feature of the business is
that no proper implements are pro-
vided for the purpose, and so pre-
sumably the animal is to be dis
patched by means of billhooks and
bayonets. Officers say that this is
simply making themselves and the
army ridiculous.

ZULU CHIEF RELEASED.
New South African Government Gives
Him Liberty.


Cape ToWn.-One of the first acts
Of the new South African government
has been to order the release of the
imprisoned Zulu chief Dinuzula.
This decision was reached at the first
meeting of the union cabinet at Pre-
eoria. Linuzula will be given n farm
near MUSHROOM on which he will
live with his wives and personal at
tendants. and will enjoy reasonable
liberty on an allowance of S25OO per
annuM, subject to good behavior.
Dinuzula was removed secretly from
New Castle to Pretoria.
Dinuzula, who Is one of the sons Of
the famous Cetewayo, and therefore
prince of the Zulu royal line, was
arrested in December, 1907, and
charged on 23 counts, including col
lection of arms, Indictment to riot,
and harboring rebels. He was kept
in prison II months before he was
brought up for trial. All charges but
one-that of "harboring rebels"-
completely broke down, and Dinuzula
was condemned to four years impris-
onment and fine OF 100 pounds. The

Strewing Flowers.

Have you ever considered what a
deep undermeaning there lies, or, at
least, may be read, if we choose, in
our custom Of strewing flowers be-
fore those whom we think most
happy?
Do you suppose it is merely to de-
ceive them into the hope that happi-
ness is ways 10 fall thus in showers
at their feet--that wherever they
pass they will tread on herbs of sweet
scent and that the rough ground
will be made smooth for them by
depth Of roses?
So surely as they believe that, they
will have, instead, to walk on bitter
herbs and thorns; and the only soft
ness to their feet will be Of snow
But it is not thus intended they
should believe; there is a better
meaning in that old custom. The
path Of a good woman is indeed
strewn with flowers; but they rise
behind her steps. not before them.
Her feet have touched the meadows
and left the daisies rosy.''-Ruskin.

For a maiden who travels much.

at the very end folds over and fastens
to the tiny pearl button at the other
side Unlike most embroidered pieces
these rings must be stffly starched
when laundered.
