Refuses to Heed -Warning Against Walking in an Unsavory Locality. PARIS, Aug. 23.—Victor Evandale, sup- posed to be an American about 40 years of age, declared at a cafe table that he had lived for ten years in the wildest regions of Western United States and never carried a weapon and was never afraid. Several Frenchmen who were present told him that Paris was more dangerous. They asserted that he could not go from Grenelle to Montrouge, for example, after 10 o'clock at night without being killed unless he wore laborer's clothes. Evandale left the cafe after a time without revertlnf to the conversation about dangerous localities, Next morning his companions of the night before were horrified to read of the discovery of Evandale’s body in the glacis of the fortifications near the Maison Blanche. 1t is supposed he must have actually attempted to walk from Grenelle to Montrouge immediately after leaving his friends. Evidently he was attacked from behind. Tight around his neck was found a thin leather thong which had been used to strangle him. His pockets were rifled, his shoes and coat removed. Inquiry by the Call correspondent tends to show that Evandale was an English- man instead of an American, but had lived in Texas.

AT AGUA DULCE, THAN THE WILDS FEAR KAFFIRS Say the Peace of South Africa Is Threatened by Them. Savages Are Armed and Evidently Making Prepar- ations for War. VIENNA, Aug. 23—The Fremdenblatt to-day publishes an interview with an Australian who traveled from South Af- rica to England on the steamer with the Boer generals, Botha, Dewet and De- larey. The Australian is credited with saying that in the course of a conversa- tion General Botha said to him: “It is probable that England has no need to fear further trouble from the Boers, but the civilization of South Af- rica is threatened by the Kaffirs. Eng- land armed these savages, brave but un- trustworty tribes, to fight for her. Now | the war is ended and the Kaffirs have not returned their arms, but have retreat- ed with them to inaccessible places in the mountains, where they are reported to be engaged in daily shooting exercises and preparation for war. Uniess the lish authorities display the greatest energy the Kaffirs are likely to cause great trou- ble.” Referring to political matters, the Frem- denblatt says General Botha told its in- formant that England's best course would be to grant the Boers an independent Parliament—that this was the only possi- ble means of securing peaceful develop- ment of the country. LONDON, Aug. 23.—A serious slump in recruiting has resurrected the conscrip- tion bogy, which persistently refuses to down for any length of time. It is un- derstood that the year’s recruiting re- turns about to be issued show the great- est decline of any year during the past five years, which showing promises to have serious influence in preventing the release of reservists. The Saturday Re- view frankly says that while the army proved effective in South Africa, in re- spect to the rank and file, the fact re- mains that it is too small for the re- quirements of the empire, adding: “We_have ultimately to face this ques- tion. Whether we like it or not, conscrip- tion is certain to come, and the country might as well get used to the idea as quickly as it can.” Conslidering their experiences during and since the war, perhaps it is hardly strange that, while the authorities are lament- ing the decline in recruiting, whole regi- ments of time-expired men are walking the streets rather than re-enlist in their own army, yet scores of former Britisin soldiers continue to beslege the United States embassy and consulate owing to the reports, denied by the American of- ficials, that the Uniled States was enlist- ing men who had served in the South Af- rican army for service in the Philippines. ‘Warships Sail Northward. WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.—In pursuance of the Navy Department orders of yester- day two of the American war vessels in Venezuelan waters started north to-day.

In view of the generally disturbed condition of affairs in Central and South America, the Cinecinnati will remain for some days at Cape Haytlen to be ready for possible demands for her immediate presence. The return of the Cincinnati and the Topeka leaves only the Marietta to keep watch on affairs in Ven’ezuela and the isthmus. ¢ epeo e Defaulter Commits Suicide.
