CORNERSTONE
A SOCIETY FOR

Inmates of South African Mines
Declared to Have Inaugurated
Government of Their Own.

KIMBERLEY, SOUTH AFRICA,
Oct IA sensational story of a pa
tive convicts secret society, the facts
as to which are we'll known to South
Africa and police authorities, has
been unfolded in the course of a muir
der trial here.
Five native convicts were indicted
for the murder Of a fellow convict,
named Jacob Mkaba, at Dutoitspan
convict station. The story for the
Crown was that Jacob had decided to
withdraw from the "Ninevite Socie-
ty," abdicating the craftsmanship. and
also.
For this and for the fact that he
was supposed to have carried tales to
the station superintendent he was
sentenced to death He resisted en-
deavors to get him into certain cell,
but eventually went, and was set
upon and stabbed to death.
One of the accused was the So
cietys doctor another a Judge" a
third succeeded Jacob as chief, the
fourth belonged to an opposing fac
ton known as The Scotchmen," and
the fifth was neutral.
The Ninevites are a native convict
secret society. The evidence showed
that they have their own king, chief,
general, judges, doctor, and other Of
ficers and hold secret courts, SEN
tenCe fellow Convicts to death and
issue the orders for the execution of
their sentences.
Judge Lange said that the Nine
yites originated in Pretoria convict
prison, and were represented all over
the country A native witness said
that nearly all the convicts in Jo-
hannesburg were Ninevites. The de-
ceased had been chief of the society.
Secret prison meetings decided on the
Standings, and those appointed to ex-
ecute orders were liable to punish
ment if they failed. This witness
said the rule was "Once a Ninevite,
always a NineVite"
Jacobs death warrant was "ver-
bally signed" and II was ordained
that. should the knife not be forth
coming, he should be killed while
working on the DeBeers floors.
Superintendent Dyason said the
Ninevites caused immense trouble in
the stations, and. although watched
continually, held meetings, and re-
ported to their king. The head of the
society was in Pretoria, and was rec
ognized throughout the Union pris-
ons. Jacobs fellow convicts had re-
Gently called him a detective to watch
and protect Jacob. Witness added
that the lives of the witnesses in the
| present case would certainly be en-

One Of the accused admitted stab
bling the deceased under orders from
Pretoria" because 1t was thought that
it was through him that two convicts
had been shot at the Cinderella pris-
on. If he twitness) had not killed
Jacob, he would undoubtedly have

self defense"

WAITS
WINTER IN FEAR
Of STARVATION
Men in All Trades Are Out of
Employment, While Poor Are
WretchedIy Housed,
Special Gable to The American.

BERLIN, Oct. 11-With growing
anxiety Germans are looking forward
to the coming winter, which threatens
to be one of unusual suffering. AL
ready the ghost of unemployment is
stalking through the country.
In Berlin itself only 1000 bricklay-
ers are employed, while six years ago
this city had plenty Of work for more
than 10000 Statistics show that II
per cent of the workers in this trade
are idle and building operations are
practically at standstill.
There are too many houses in Ber-
lin at present, thousands of fats are
standing empty, and rents are going
down. It must not be thought, how
ever, that the working classes and the
poor are well housed here though one
Of the things which strikes the eyes
of visitor is the apparent absence
of big squalid tenements as he knows
them from New York and Chicago.
This is a mere illusion, however
for the tenemenfs are he*e and the
poor are huddled together as badly
as in the worst East Side districts
Of New York. But Berlin tenements
are all "hinterhapser." That is to
say, they are completely hidden be-
hind the magnificent structures which
line the streets.
If all the poor of Berlin were to be
housed properly, there would be am
pie work here for $4,000 bricklayers
for several years, but the money to
build model tenements is lacking, and
were they built the poor would not
have the money to pay for better
quarters.
From Posen, Breslau, Hamburg, the
Rhine, and considerable parts Of Ba-
varia similar tales of unemployment
come In Hamburg one-third of the
men in this trade are without work.
In the textile industries a similar
state of affairs threatens. In cloth,
lace and ribbon factories it is re-
ported that more and more looms be
come idle, and as in Austria a SINH
lar state of affairs exists there is a
large immigration of workers from
that country.

ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 1.-THE
tomb of a Scythian King. an incom-
parable archaeological discovery, has
been found in excavating an extern
sive burial mound in Tigris, Black
Sea province.
The Kings treasures. recovered,
too, must have a tremendous value
for museums and wealthy collectors,
for they are most wonderful speci-
mems Of contemporary art
The well-preserved skeleton OF this
monarch lay in a porous carved stone
sarcophagus. Around the neck was a
heavy gold collar beautifully enam-
eled, near him lay bronze helmet of
Greek pattern and the full panoply
of a warrior, all of exquisite Greek
workmanship.
BY the Kings side we're two swords
with hilts and sheaths Of pure gold.
Such a find is unprecedented, It is
believed
The sarcophagus also contained
nine great silver vases on which bas-
reliefs illustrated the old Scythian's
daily life. A large gold salver was

manship is the most remarkable gem.
II is Of solid gold, and weighs more

blithesome and gay, although it is ru-
mored about Madrid that the gayety
is kept on tap by his majesty for puo-
lie appearances.
One of the young Kings greatest
worries is his mOther-in law, the
Princess Henry of Battenberg, who
distinctly does not like or approve Of
Alfonso. She considers him a dissi
pated youth, and it is said that the
Princess would even sanction her
daughter, Queen Victoria, leaving her
royal husband. Alfonso is said to be
afraid of his mother-in-law. On a
visit to Osborn Cottage, Isle Of Wight,
several years ago Alfonso came into
close contact with the Princess Hen
ry and actually fed in terror.
Aunt Is Another Burden.
There is another load on the King S
mind in the shape of his aunt, the In
fanta Eulalia, who is living in Paris,
having long since renowned court
life. The Infanta is a novelist, and
has persisted in writing things for
publication that the King did not ap-
prove Of. Alfonso has threatened 10

horribly shocked the Spanish court

Now comes one of the worse shocks

the same that a typical American

This seems to forecast the worst.
and poor King Alfonso is waiting in
trepidation to see what terrible breach
of royal etiquette his aunt has COM
mitted.
But the saddest of all of King AL
fonsos sad blows Is that his little
daughter, the Infanta Maria, is to be
deaf and dumb. Maria Christina Te-
resa Alexandra Guadalupe Marias de

Eugenia, was born December II. 1872,
and was the cause of much rejoicing.
The Infante Don Jaime, the second
child Of the royal couple, was born
deaf and has never spoken. He is

never been in robust health and has
repeatedly been operated on for af-

Ruler Dodges Assassins, Queen Mourns for Deaf

MADRID, Oct lit may be, as
believed by many, that King Alfonso
leads a charmed life. but If reports
are to be believed there is a curse
upon the Spanish royal family despite
the failure of the many attempts, to
assassinate the gay young Spanish
monarch. 1t is said that the Kings
second daughter Infanta Maria, like
his majesty's second son, Don Jaime,
will be deaf and dumb. This has been
officially denied, but so was the deaf

The deafness and consequent

PARIS, Oct 11.-That tea drinking
makes the teeth grow long Is a scare
which has Just seized Paris society
women, who are now renouncing the
cup that cheers in favor of chocolate
or coffee.
If pressed for evidence, these wom-
en- point to ishwomen whose Iona
teeth are a standing joke among the
French. and say that this is certainly
the result Of tea
A Paris physician, DR.. Louisel
states that this idea has a serious
foundation in scientific fact, as exces-
siye tea drinking may produce, among
other bad results, a constant yawn-
ing and the facial muscles, which are
distended in yawning, react on the
gums and tend rather to push the
teeth out.
This. he says, only occurs In exag-
g,rated cases. Nevertheless, the idea
has taken firm root in the minds OF
