make slow progress in German South
west Africa, but this is hardly as inter-
esting as the news that at the opening
of parliament OF the Union of South
Africa the guard of honor for the new
british governor was composed entire
" of burghers in khaki, duty which
heretofore has devolved upon British
soldiers.
In a letter to the parliament. Gen.
Botha, who is at the front, said he an
ticipated the speedy conclusion of the
operations and appealed for leniency
for the rebels. especially the rank and
file, who, he said. 'in most cases acted
under compulsion or were the victims
of wrong leaders.
The British governments peremptory
demand that work should be resumed
in the trades where work was being
done for the army and navy seems to
have had Il salutary effect in connection
with the recent strike. The ofiiciais of
the unions advised the men to return
to work Immediately and the Liverpool
dockers and other workmen have al
ready followed the suggestion.

Line Hard to Define.

4 colored minister of the highest in

leading white church in certain
northern city was a colored boy play
mate of former days.
On which side of the segregatns line
will you . lace a prosperous. refined
white citizen whose randmother
or father was black!
The negro question i'll the United
States is merely a small part OF
question which is world wide
What is happening from Cape Horn
to the Rio Grandeo What does the race
variety seen in Morocco, Algeria. Tunis,
Tripoli, etc, suggest to the student of
evolution"
I saw 4 statement several days ago to
the effect that the Almighty did not in
tend that the negro should ever be the
equal of the white man.
Surely the man who. in the littleneSs
of his heart and soul. confesses to Il
relief that she Creator never intended
that the most benishted idol -worshiping
cannibalistic savages should rise to
! higher and higher planes of Christian
civilization. until in every respect they
had attained state as like unto the
Divine image in which they were created
as is possible for man to reach, IS at
tempting to read the Divine purpose
through the lens of human meanness: is
refusing to credit Almighty God with
the attributes of all-pitying fatherhood
which forms one of the bulwarks of the
Christian religion. Away with such
blasphemy. Let such one inform him
self concerning the evolution of races and
species before rushing lin where angels
fear to tread: before attempting to

in mysterious way His wonders to per-

ner the truth concerning the progress
of the peoples included by the common
iN used term 'negro"-with small

estimate of the worth of aspeople can
be made otherwise.
In concluding let me say that the
history of the world down to within a
few months proves that las we SOW,
so shall we reap. that ''the sins of
fathers are visited upon their children.

The number of Russian prisoners

promises OF the athletic leaders OF
several European nations to send ut

Sweden, and Italy all gave definite
promises to send a few competitors
to the big Frisco meeting.
There's no question but that the
presence OF even a score OF the good

doubled the interest in the Panama

then. the great war across the big
