These warlike patives, 50,000 strong, have provided the Kaiser's crack army with the toughest military nut it has been walled upon to crack since the war aith France, and after six months of bilundering by leaders of the lower rank the Emperor decided to send an officer from the general staff to the #cene of action. General von Trotha, Wwhe enjoys a fine reputation as an or- genizer and tactician, is taking with him reinforcements of 1500 men and borses, and he will assume the active command of the colonial army later in June. The new commander in chief is 56 years old. From 1894 to i897 he com- manded the Kaiser's colonial forces in East Africa and in 1900 he accom- panied Count von Waldersee to China with the rank of major general. Problems that will tax General von Trotha's abilities to the fullest await him in West Africa. The Hereros hzve proved a crafty and stubborn foe. In the serious engagements that have so far taken place they have suc- ceeded in defeating the Kaiser's troops $ignally. Their resistance has, indeed, become so stanch that the Germans have practically declared a truce pending the arrival of reinforcements from home. Armed with the Mauser rifies and ammunition supplied them by German settlers in peaceful days, the Hereros have shown that they are strategists as well. On two occasions they bave decisively outwitted their crack antagonists, killing and wound- ing more than 100 officers and men. There is considerable mystery about the result of one fight And the where- ebouts of a machine gun, with which the natives are believed to have got eway. The Hereros, like the Boers, ere all mounted, understand the art of fighting behind cover and séem to have mapped ount a comprehensive guerrilla campaign. The Germans, fresh from the fortresses and drilling grounds of the Fatherland, find them- selves confronted with the necessity of opposing tactics about which they know practically nothing. The Hereros occupy a country admirably fitted for & tedious defensive campaign. The re- gion is mountainous and heavily tim- bered and well fitted for harassing the operations of an organized enemy. The difficulties confronting Germany in its Sguthwest African colony have filled Germans at home with fresh con- vietions that the Fatherland is not “cut out” for a great colonial career. The present rebellion seems to have been the direct outgrowth of bureaucratic government upon the part of Germdn functionarfes, who have attempted to @overn negro natives in the jungles | | The thing was carried so far, | |ara nuts; and wilds of Africa upon the ‘Mnail fist” lines with which Germans at home | are handled. Millions of marks’ worth of property have been destroyed by the Hereros and whole communities of Ger- an settlers have been massacred. The fttle war” has already cost the Kaiser over $3,000,000 and has wiped out the re- sults of twenty years of careful indus- trial and commercial effort. 'Besides | the military problem, the financial loss and the economic waste involved in the war, the rebellion has stirred up a | nasty departmental squabble in Berlin, with the Foreign Office, the Colonial Office and the War Department fight- ing each other and indulging in all | kinds of intrigues. | Meanwhile General von Trotha must | have been a good deal embarrassed by | the attentions that were lavished upon | bim prior to his departure. Since the { news of his appointment was made | public he has been feted throughout the country. Banhquets have been given 1in his honor, and speeches made glori- | fying the great deeds which he was expected to achieve. Addresses of con- | gratulation and admiration haye been | presented to him by the score, and he has been serenaded. / When he left his home at Treves the entire officers of the corps and all the military bands of the district escorted him to the station, and as the train steamed out of the station the thunder | of artillery proclaimed the event to the | | country for miles around. i in fact, | that protests were made against such premature jubilation. Owing to the | enormous difficulties in front of him it |is feared that Von Trotha's mission may result in failure. In ghese circum- | stances it is pointed out that demon | strations of triumph in advance are al- | | together misplaced and will probably | expose Germany to ridicule. - The London Bus Driver. The last few days have seen the ar- | rival in London of a great crowd of ! peauty, fashion and wealth. The American girl is here and she is teach- ing us all a thing or two in manners, conversation, dress and “hustle.” Our Anglo-American hotels are full |to overflowing: there is an enormous | demand for ice cream, soda and Niag- the polite gentlemen from Messrs. Cook’s are showing the mys- teries of London to the admiring fair; | and the bus driver is in his element. In spite of all sorts of temptations the front seat on the top of an omni- bus is the great attraction for Peony L. Potts and her merry sisters. Peony says that the car driver is altogether | just rippin'—full of interesting infor- mation, full of sweet stories and quite a gentleman. On the other hand, what does the bus driver think of Peony and her papa? One of them unburdened his soul to a Leader representative re- cently. “There’s he said. | there’s bloomin’ Yankees—and Yankees!" “There's cute Yankees and cute Yankees. And 1 seem to have struck the bloomin’ | cute ones—and no mistake about it. There was one gent yesterday, as Bill pulled the bus up, for goin’ up hill in White'all. He gets on the front seat and he says, ‘Say, driver, give us the lay of this 'ere city of yours!”* And I showed 'im everything from Charles the bloomin’ First to the Benk. And | he wags his wiskers and says they're just all right for an ole-fashioned | place like London; and when I've talked myself dry, this Yankee he says | “Thank you, driver—and good mornin’ {to you. And if you ever come to New York City and call on Silas G. Bland | I'll show you some of our little lions,” | he sz | "“And he gets down—after stoppin’ | the bloomin’ bus again—and he never | ofiers me a cent! But I gets my ow n| |in afore he goes. I says, ‘Thank you, sir, I'm havin’ a two-quid trip to your city in the autumn!" ‘‘Well,” says he, ‘call on me and I'll tot you round!" ““Thank you, sir,’ says I again. ‘And do you know what I shall do af- ter your great kindness?’ *“Well?" says he. “‘T'll stand you ‘arf a bitter for your trouble, I says. And even that | bit of lip didn't fetch ‘im! | “But the Jadies! Well, they're lit- tle bits of all right.

The ornithologists of the Department of Agriculture have been making an investigation of the economic value of the Bob White, or meadow lark, as we call him in California, as a result of which it is now announced that that bird is “probably the most useful abundant species on the farms.” Field observations, experiments and examinations show that the Bob White consumes large quantities of weed seeds and destroys many of the worst insect pests with which farmers con- tend, and yet it does not injure grain, fruit or any other crop. It is calculated that from September 1 to April 30, annually, in Virginia alone, the total consumption of weed seed by Bob Whites amounts to 373 tons. Some of the pests which it ha- bitually destroys, the report says, are the Mexican cotton boll weevil, which damages the cotton crop upward of $15,000,000 a year; the potato beetle, which cuts off $10,000,000 from the value of the potato crop; the cotton worms, which have been known to cause $30,- 000,000 loss in a year; the cinch bug and the Rocky Mountain locust, scourges which leave desolation in their path and have caused loss to the extent of $100,000,000 in some years. The report urges measures to secure the preservation of the Boh Whites in this country. Henceforth whales are to be sacred to the Norwegian fisherman.

DISASTERS ON THE WATER. SATURDAY HE Chicago theater fire was the cause of-imme- T diate official attention to fireproofing of theaters and places of public asscmblar, and to the con- dition of exits therefrom. The huddreds who died in that catastrophe were not sacrificed altogether in vain. Small as may be the consolation to the thousands who mourn them, their fate saved thousands of others by the stern regulations which it caused to be made all over the world, whereby a similar horror is made less possible. ' The opeming of the heated term and of the con- current excursion season in New York is the occasién of the greatest disaster on the water that has ever oc- curred in this country. The children of a large parish, on a Sunday school outing, crowding a regular ‘excursion boat, have been cruelly sacrificed to a false feeling of confidence in the safety of the boat. No doubt her h_ulI and machinery were in order and the official inspectors had done their duty. But no matter how fit she was for the waters on which she sailed there is never safety on such a boat, crowded to her limit with women and children, whose only thought is the pleasures of the lmhd.x) >robably not one in all the hundreds that s“armed on the Slocum thought of danger, or planned how to meet it if it came. Least of all dangers is it probable that any thought of fire. New York and all the Atlantic Coast cities and the towns on the Great Lakes have this boat excursion habit. There is a charm in being on the water that lures thousands to enjoy it, and so there are ineall such cities regular summer excursion boats that rarely leave the dock with less than the limit of passen- gers allowed by law, and this limit is often exceeded with impunity. These afe usually wecoden boats, and even if the hull is metal the upper works are of wood and very inflammable, because of the use of paint and varnish. Official regulations are made to secure safety, but these seem insufficient. The profits of the owners of the boats depend upon accommodating all that can aboard, a cheap rate, and there is such a universal lack of and care for consequences among excursionists that every boat is a floating possi- bility of disaster. No one can control nor hold in dis- cipline such a crowd as went to its death on the Slocum. Any slight thing that would cause a panic would be sure to bring injury and death to many under such con- ditions, For a brief time excursion going folks who seek escape from the blistering heat of waterside cities in the East will remember this awful scene and avoid crowded boats. But the memory of it will soon pass away and other boats will be as crowded and with risk as great. It onght to be easy, in the case of such organizations as the Sunday school that was on the Slocum, to regulate the number going on board so as not to crowd the boat and to divide the children into commands, each instructed to obey a captain. By select- ing cool-headed persons for command, who know all about getting at life preservers, rafts and boats, the fatalities might be minimized, even in the face of such sudden and unexpected peril as struck the ill-fated pleasurs boat and turned her into a floating and fiery charnel house. It may be well to invoke some form of public authority charged with the enforcement of all possible precautions. When Sunday schools and other organizations with a definite number charter a boat, such public authority would take charge and all the passengers could be instructed to obey its commands. The whole subject wiill no doubt be fully discussed, and as in the case of precautions in theaters some measures will issue from it that will enhance the safety of such crowds on such craft. Within the brief space of ten minutes between 700 and 1000 perished in East River, at the beginning of what was intended to be a day of pleasure. In ali of its aspects the calamity is sad and awful and appeals to human sympathy far and near, as shown by the con- dolence of gnunicipal officers in this country and Europe, and the official sympathy expressed by the President of France and other rulers, through President Roose- velt, After the fact it is easy to see how more effective means might have been taken to save life after the fire started. It was in the bow of the boat. The offi- cers ran her to beach, bow on. This made a draft that sent the blaze quickly her whole length, cutting off all chance of escape from death by fire except death by When beached she was still in water at such depth and so far from shore that beaching her did no good. The stream there is'always full of craft of all kinds. It would seem that ‘if the officers had backed her, blowing signals of distress, the fire would not have been forced astern, and backing mijdstream other boats could have approached and taken off many of the passengers who perished by running her ahead. But there is little time for thinking in ten minutes in such a panic and such peril, and the officers did the best that occurred to them. The lesson should be heeded wherever boats are liable to be crowded, and people who use them, as well as the officers who com- mand them, and all public authority that may be in- voked, should concert measures that will secure the maximum of safety, crowd at caution water. in They tried to elect a school teacher in a Texas town the other day and one man was killed and four others were desperately wounded. When the worthy people of the Lone Star State go in for sweetness and light there are no half-way measures with them. It is the morgue or. nothing, and the recent incident is fully up to the precedent that generally it is the morgue. —_— T above Port Arthur are among the greatest actions at arms that have gone into history. The latest, that of Telissu, again illustrates the fighting capacity of the Japanese and their determination not to stay whipped. and their courage matehless. Lieutenant General the; Baron Stakelberg, the Rus- sian commander, admits Khat he was sure of victory when he succeeded in- enveloping the Japanese right flank, but at that point the Japanese turned and en- ‘veloped his right flank and cut his force to pieces, com- pelling a retreat so disorderly that fourteen Russian guns were abandoned, the wounded left on the field and many prisoners taken. Yet when the fight began the Japanese had only a single battery of six-inch guns and were repeatedly repulsed by the lupenor number of the Russian guns. All soldiers and military tacticians will apprecm what' it meant, under such circumstances, to m; 1 THE BATTLE OF TELISSU. HE batties won by the Japanese on the peninsula Their comprehension of tactics is marvelous: e —— ‘improvement. advancing until -defeat was turned into victory. If the Japanese-force in reserve be in reach to cut off Stakel- berg's movement to rejoin the main forces of Kuropat- kin, he will be caught without artillery and will probably be annihilated. His force was moving under orders to raise the siege of Port Arthur. It is believed that this was contrary to the judgment of Kuropatkin and the Viceroy, but in St.. Petersburg officialdom the cry has been “On to Port Arthur,” and the judgment of the field commanders was overcome. It seems no longer safe for Russia to depend upon her supposed superiority in numbers and equipment. Japan has a military force of one million men. Russia claims ten millions. But she is far from her base, while Japan is in ready contact with hers. The Japanese have won the respect of the whole military world, and the non-military as well. Japan has generals who are as keen experts in the art of war as Alexander, Caesar, Marlborough and Napoleon in their day, and as skill- ful as Grant and Von Moltke. Then they have observed strictly all the conventions of warfare, according to the most modern ideas. They have been gallant to prisoners of war, have given every care to the wounded enemy and have buried their dead foemen with all the honors of war. The Western nations can well afford to fellow- ship these island warriors and patriots. They are no discredit to the civilized family of the world in which they have incorporated themselves in the short space of a half century. The Board of Health, after a deal of agitation, inves- tigation and discussion, has legislated pure milk for San Francisco. It will be interesting to watch now what relation these new laws will bear to a practical reforma- tion of conditions which have become a serious menace to the health of the city. A little more watchfulness by officials and a little less law from municipal bureaus might work wonders. \ BEAUTIFYING COAST CITIES. HE minds of the people of the Pacific Coast have T ever been awake to the advantages that inhere in developing the picturesque surroundings with which they are endowed by nature. In this city, after some years of discussion of a preliminary sort, an asso- ciation has been formed having for its purpose the improvement and adornment’ of San Francisco. A landscape artist of acknowledged reputation and of wide experience has been engaged to provide a plan suffi- ciently comprehensive to serve for the future and a| report will be submitted by him for consideration within a year. He will have in mind the matter of parks and park- | of architecture, of the most effective methods to | ways, supply vantage points from which to see wonderful vistas of bay, ocean and mountains, and of the adorn- ment and general improvement of parked areas now existing. From his labors much in the way of good suggestion is expected. From the pignacles of the highest hills in the city, the Twin Peaks; from the rocky headlands that rise on opposing sides of the Golden Gate and iront the width of the blue Pacific, on the tops of scores of ele- vated localities, there is so much to be seen and to be admired that the oldest citizen who is endowed with artistic’ perception and sense of the picturesque never tires of looking. With a system of improvements that is commensurate with the opportunities afforded the scenic advantages will be greatly enhanced. Los Angeles has paid a great deal of attention to the creation of a park system and has thereby provided for its enjoyment some of the show places.of the United States. Sacramento is now incubating schemes for the beautification of the area that has heen known for many years as the China Slough. Improvement clubs in all parts of this State are engaged in making the best of their surroundings, produce good effects. Development of matural beauties has been longer de- layed in the larger cities north of California, on the Pacific Coast. Now, however, stimulated in some de- gree by the coming Lewis and Clark Exposition, Port- land, Oregon. is entertaining large ideas lor its own A report has been obtained from John C. Olmsted of Boston. who laid out the Lewis and Clark exposition grounds, outlining a system of park- ways, boulevards and parks for the city. A large forest reservation west of the Willamette River with a'picturesque parkway running along the river bank, extending to another large forest reserva- tion on the hills northwest of the Mountain View Park addition and connecting City Park :md’ Maclay Park; a river bluff parkway east of the river and connected by a bridge with a parkway west of the river at Fulton; another river bluff parkway east of the river to a bluff park, west of Columbia University; a great meadow reservation among the Columbia sloughs; a park on Mount Tabor to preserve hill scenery cast of the river; a boulevard to Mount Tabor Park; parks on Ross Island and Swan Island—-these are among the largest features of the scheme as reported. There is no doubt that Portland will be benefited if it enter upon large and properly conceived improve- ment on the plans outlined in the foregoing. The Pa- cific Coast is properly the scenic region of the United States and its attractive places are numerous. Common advantage will be derived from having all the principal places on the routes of travel ‘on this coast made as pleasing as possible. They will form a chain to draw spectators from the remotest parts of the civiliz;d coun- tries of the earth. " The im"lustrf'of eleven years, the dubious endeavors of many anxious-and ambitious men and women and the ac- commodating acquiescence of thrifty publishers have borne fruit in an “American peerage.” Yet it is not good to believe that there are still many otherwise worthy American citizens who will disturb the even current of their lives and pay heavily of their money to be made publicly foolish. —_——— An emissary of Japan, high in authority, has reached this country with the avowed purpose of extracting from conditions that he finds here reasons to suggest to his Government severe restrictive legiglation whith will keep Japanese laborers at home.

King Victor Emmanuel’s pet ambi- tion is to signalize his reign in the an- nals of Italy by converting Rome into a seaport. The project of connecting the Eternal.€ity with the sea by means of a ship canal is, of course, not a new one; in fact, it has been mooted quite a number times. But now, thanks to the energy and determination of -the King, the scheme is about to be put into execution. The Tiber, which should be the natural means of navi- gation between the metropolis and the sea, is, unfortunately, useless for the purpose, as the shifting sands at its mouth, its winding course and its ever- changing shoals and pools not merely render it unavailable for any sea-going eraft, but are likewise of a nature to gable by means of dredging for ships of large tonnage.. The canal, however, could easily be constructed and offers no engineering difficulties. The total cost has been estimated at $11,000,000, the idea being to make it wide and deep enough to enable two vessels of big tonnage to pass each cther, and the time required for the comstruction would be betsveen four and five years, The distance from Rome to the sea is considerably under fifty miles and the canal would have the effect of drain- ing and of sanitating a considerable “why | “Is that so?" said Barry, extendin®| preclude any attempt to render it navi- THE TOWN that Roman Campagna which is now rendered almost unin- habitable by malaria. In ancient times when ships very much smaller than they are to- day, and when the bed of the Tiber was less filled with silt brought down portion of were from the hills than to-day, the tri- remes and the galleys came up direct by the river from the sea to Rome and it was to this that the Eternal City owed so much of its grandeur and prosperity. King Victor Emmanuel gees no reason why he should net re- store to his capital its former impor- tance by once more converting it imto a seaport, no longer) however, with the assistance of Father Tiber, but by means of a big ship canal. Let me add that at the present moment the cost of sending merchandise from Ci- vita Vecchia, at the mouth of the Ti- ber, to Rome, or from the city to Ci- vita Vecchia, is as great as the cost of freight between Liverpool and New York, although iIn the latter instance the distance is over 3000 miles, whereas between Rome and the sea there are a little over forty miles. Biblical Warning. Many of the railroads in the South are prone to giving passes indiscrim- inately, so that on some of the smaller roads about all the prominent people who live along the line are carried free. Storekeepers, sawmill proprietors, politicians—in fact almost everybody who can afford to pay his fare goes scot free, while the negroes and poor | country folk pay the large fares ex- | acted—the larger, of course, for the roads’ loss on the deadheads. One Georgia railroad, however, according to the Boston Transcript, has set its face against the evil, and has resorted | to Scripture to make plain its position. | 1t has posted in the two or three pas- senger cars that comprise its equip- ment the following notice: “This means you! ““Thou shalt not pass.'—Numbers, xx:18. “‘Nome shall ever pass.'—Isalah, xxxiv:l0. “‘Suffer not a man to pass.’— | Juages, ii:2 “‘“The wicked shall no more pass.'— Nahum, 1:15. icenorauun shall not pass.'— - ‘Thmlgh lhe) roar, yet they canmot ‘ pa« —Jeremiah, ‘So he paid the fare and went.'— | Jonah, i:3." Gladstone’s Mr. Gladstone was once drawing very remarkable conclusions from some figures—an art in which he was an unapproached master. A member on the other side laughed out a “Hear, hgnr!" ironically. Gladstone stopped instantly and turned and looked with interest at the interrupter, who as- suredly would at that mdment have given a good deal to recall his words. Then he turned back to the Speaker. “Sir,” he said, “the honorable gentle- man laughs.” For a minute or two he quoted from memory a long string of figures proving the accuracy of what he had previously said. “The next time the honorable member laughs,” he continued in honeyed | tones, “I would advise him—I would venture to ¢ nsel him—to ornament his laugh—to decorate it—with idea.” it Retort. an Answers to Queries.
