Her acquisition of the colony wans accldental and her inferest in it was incidental until in 1903, the Hot- tentots revojted. “A German general embarked up- on a policy of extermination which aroused such indignation in his home land that Chancellor von Buelow dis- avowed his more drastic acts. How- ever, the misguided officer had aroused the natives of all Southwest Africa, and the discontent spread to adjoining British possessions, so that the issue became drawn between white or black supremacy in all South Africa. ¢ Hottentot Forced Germany's Hand. “A war that lasted four years, and took toll of several thousand German soldiers, brought squarely before the German parllament the question of. whether Germany was to adopt per- manently a colonlal expansion policy. ‘The Hottentot had unwittingly fanned * Germany's interest in her first colony, and she went into the development of a' colonial empire with her accustom- ed thoroughness. “Within a little more than two dec- ades the sand-dunes of German Southwest Africa’s dreary 800-mile coast line.were punctuated by a port which had the tallest wireless tower of her day, modern electric railways, a public library, government bulldings and a newspaper. “The city first was called Luderitz, for the Bremen merchant who bought it for a trifle from a native chief, but now is known as Angra Pepuena.

He was pastoral and could, well afford to dream when he pleased, which was often all day long, and work when he pleased, which was seldom. i “He would betake himself to the woods to hunt, leaving his wife, or * wives, to look after his cattle and do his cooking.

Hard Up Art Collectors Having Little Cash Bring Their Collections To America To Sell, / London, Oct, 5—Art collectors from America have sent more treasures to America since the war than were pur- chased by Americans during the 20 years previous to 1914, English colleckors explain that this Is the result of the need for cash which Is being acutely felt in England, Many formerly wealthy art collectors are foreéd to sell thelr possessions in order to meet high taxation and lv- ing costs. There seems to be no such condition among the American colleo- tors, ‘for. thelr English agents are everywhere and always ready to selze upon any treasures t are for sale, In fact, #0 ‘anxious are some of the agents to buy that they have adopted the method of calling on well known collectors and making them offers for varfous objeets. Art objects to the value of $10,000,- 000 were shipped to the United States last year, HARVARD DRILL LIGHT Fisher Confines Practice to Position Coaching and Signals.
