THE COLUMBIAN, BLOOMSBURG, PA. THE BOER COUNTRY. Romaritub'.o Growth of tho Couth African Republic. gltUement of tha Transvaal and It Ha twloni tnduatrlat rrograiM Oonv IXMltion of tlaa On erniurtit. The territory comprising tlio Trans vaal or South African republic covers an area larger than that of France. It la peopled by tho Boors, who fled from tho tyrannical form of government which tho English sought to impose up on thorn further south. The Boers are tho descendants of tho sturdy Nether landers, who constituted Holland a re public and a formidablo power in tho sixteenth century, and of tho Hugue nots, who wore driven from Trance by tho revocation of the edict of Nantes In 1(W3 by Louis XIV. Thus In the lipcr of South Africa thero Is a com bination of the characteristics of two people who are conspicuous in Euro pean hlRtory for tho struggles they waged for political and religious lib erty. Slnco tho days when tho first "bund of hardy Immigrant llocrs crossed the Vaal river, whero England's tyran ny stopped at following them, and planted their cabins on tho broad and tunny slopes of tho Transvaal, the country has gono through the changes and throes which mark tho life of In dividual and nation alike. Within the past fivo years a marvelous devel opment of population, resources and industries has followed on tho success which gold mining hns achioved. Hall way communication now connects Johannesburg via the diamond mines of Ifimbcrly with tho Capo of Good Hope, a dlstonco of nlav. hundred and forty-flvo miles. Other connections are rapidly progressing from Natal and Dclagja bay, centralizing at Pre toria, tho capital and scat of govern men In tho TransvaaL Tho constitution of tho South African republic, Bays Uoldthwaite's Magazine, is based on lloinan Dutch. Tho legis lative power is vested In the volksraad, the members of which are elected by tlicir constituents for four years. Tho executive consists of the president, elected for five years by a general elec tion throughout tho slate, tho state secretary elected by tho volksraad for four years, and four uuof.lciu.1 members chosen for threo years by tho volks raad. The chief olUcer ia each d 1st rlct is tho lauudror.t, who acts as magis trate and civil commissioner, with the H.Mi..tanco of ft clerk, who is at the fame time public prosecutor ar.d dis tributor of Btampn. Kach district is further provided with a baljmv or tdicrii?, gaoler anil a staff of constables. With tho exception of a corps cf mounted artillery and police, com manded by threo of.lcera with about f ixty men, tho republic has no armed force. The president, with tho concur rence of tho executive, has tho right to declare war nnd call up a commando, la which tho burghers are placed under tho field cornets and command ants of each district. The whole force is commanded by tho commandant general, who ia elected by tho country for tho term of ten years. AU inhabit ants of tho state between sixteen and eixty yenrs of n.e, not exempt nceord hvj to law, ar.j lkiblo to service on commando. President Kruger is now occupying hU olllce for tho tlii.-d term, llo i-t n patriot, a man whoso heroic Yite posterity will honor. Among tho Boors ho Is known exclusively as "Ooin Paul." '"Uncle Paul.'' Though a man ofrnggud exterior, untutored even as Vizards tbo most elementary brunches of education, ho has shown a practical enpa-.'ity for government that lias been a match far t'.io most finished diplo rv.K'y and statecraft. For the conser vation of the iutore.dj of the mining c'lu.'.i, almost cnlhvly Ihiglish, he in fluenced tho volksraad to establish a K-.'cnnd chamber, to which they could R?n:l their representatives. This cham ber legislates In t!ia interest of tha Dar:;-h c'.aisS aud for the local inter fsta of tho country, the volksraad hol;'.!ng the right of veto over its pro ceedings.

Ono of theso true lovers of flowers, calling on Mr3. Midas t)io other day, says tho Now York Tribune, was shown Into her sumptuous drawing room, which, In accordance with the delightful fashion of tho day, was Idled with costly roses In tho greatest profusion, and was redolent of their perfume. Quito entranced, tho "lover of flow ers" wandered from ono fragant speci men to another, and finally was hang in? with delight over a largo bunch of "Mmo. Cousincs," whose exquisite pink looked moit cnohantingly fresh in a largo bowl of eluor cut crystal, when her hostess entered. "Admiring tho rosea, are you?" Baid tho latter, ufter tho first greetings had 'een said. "Yes, they are pretty nice this morning; I gave carte blanche to Blank to fill my vases every other day, w I have no trouble about them at alL I'Ut don't waste your praises over those twenty-tlvo-cent things; only smell thews," pointing to tho superb cluster of American liooutios, "They cost one dollar and a half apieoo.H ti.-.. -v.... uv.-.n..,, o!&rrnnTTW orten drop their tolls and scurry away.

When tho warm uprinjr bun showers its rays down on the pools in which tho moccasin lives and finds hU prey ho comes to tho mirfiujo and hung on to a Jutting buh or weed, or crawls out on tho banks and lies stretched on tho gross or sand. Ho is shy and will run quickly at an approach, except at mat ing tliae, and then ho will show you a pretty fight.

Thor is considerable vim In stalking a stuinptail moccasin when ho Is ab sorbed in hlslovemaking, and you want to tntilco !uro of your shots when you draw lead on him. "Tho proper and sportsmonllko way of hunting snakes in Anno Arundel county Is to shoot them with a small rltlo. and tho sportsman who docsnl bag his gnme by shooting it In the head lsu't looked up to much.

CuHtom of llitptlMnml ( tirldtenliig aol odd ItMalta of Mlntiikea. Down t5 tho early p irt of the present century It was usual to namo a child after tho saint on whoso day he hap pened to bo born. A writer to Notes und Queries In 1933 states that ho had recently baptized a child by tho namo of ltenjamiu Simon Judo. On his ex pressing some surprise at this some what singular conjunction of names, ho was informed thut tho birth had taken place on tho festival of SS. Simon and Jude, and that it was al wnys considered very unlucky to take the duy from a child. The custom of naming children after any particular salut has fallen Into general disuse, except In thoso coun tries where the population Is composed almost entirely of I Ionian Catholics. The giving of a name in baptism is really no essential part of the rite, but is merely a custom derived apparently from the Jews, nnd which through long practice lias become an important clement la tho ceremony. Many instances mi;'ht bo furnished of children who hava inadvertently re ceived wrong names. Tho registers in Warminster church contain the follow ing entries: "'lTW, January 17,. Charles, daughter of John and Hetty Haines. This child ought to havo been christened Char lotte, but owing to a mistako of tho r.ponsors, it was wrong named." "17'Jl, July 31, William, daughter of William nud Surah Weldd'.ck. N. 11. It was Intended that this child, bomg a girl, bhould havo been christened Maria, but through a mistako of tho godfather it was named William.'' WILL WITH A TIME LOCK. OJJ Tentuinontary Freak of an Ecwntrlo X'ollsh Land Owner. Tho contents of a most eccentric will, loft by M. Zabjsky, a rich Polish lauded proprietor, who died in tho province of Tauridn in March, 1880, were recently published, wiys tho London Telegraph. Tho property lei't by tho deeeuaed was vuluod at seventy-flvo thousand dollars, and his will was inclosed In an envelope bearing tho words: "To bo opened after my death." On this cn velopo lielng opened, tho executor found a sealod envelop, on which was written: "To be opened blx weeks after my death." Tho stipulated Urao huving elapsed, tho second envelope was opened and a third was found with tho words: "To bo opened a year after my death." At tho end of tho year a fourth envelope was discovered which was to be opened two years after tho death of tho deceased. This continued for five years, and when, at length, In 1804, tho actual will was read, it was found to bo as eccen tric in ite dispositions as In the dlroc tionsttaohlng to Ita opening. The testator bequeathed half of his fortune to such ono of his heirs as has the greatest number of children. Tho rest of his money he dlrocted to be placed la a bank, and at the end of one hun dred years, distributed, with the ao- cumulated Interest, . among tnterest, among the ao- 1 scendantsof tho testator. !

DMarbanra of the Adjunct to the Dma mln Wortdilp. In certain parts of India monkeys are regarded as objects of worship. In '"Ucminlscences of Sovcnty Years' Llfo, Travel and Adventure, " tho author was bout to enter the oourt f a large monkey temple at Nuddeu, when tha ofiicintbig K rah mln said: "No person must visit the oourt of Hunfmnn" the monkey god "with his shoos on." After omo dlscusKlon, however, tha point to yielded, tho party entering without removing their shoes. Of an other occasion ho writes: In passing up tho country, when near to Nuddoa, I happenod to stroll Into a bamboo tope, or Jungle, when the boat bod put to for tho night. I had not ad vanced for before I hoard a terrible up roar all around, and was not a little olormod, on looking up, to behold a whole army of tho largest monkey making towards me from all quarters. Botno jumped on tho ground leforo me, others swung by tho bamboos ovef my head, and many closed up the path hi my rear. Beveral females hod young ones clinging to them, but this did not com to-rendcr them loss agile than tho others. A few of the largest, nnd apparently tho oldest, chattered for about half a minute together; then tbo wholo tribe responded, while all closed in upon me. What to do I know not. However, I hallooed as loudly as I could to make my people hear, and to my great com fort tho monkeys retreated a few paces every time I did so. This encouraged mo to persevere, but I peroelved that when I began to retreat they closed upon mo again, without being affootod by my noiso. Onoe more I stood still and gave a tremendous Bhout, when back they went again. I gained full twenty yards tills time beforo they came Jumping around; and Just as I was about to repeat tho call, my hopef were raised by beholding a poor, de crepit old woman some hobbling tlirough tho midst of them. She shook two or throe of them by tho puws as eho passed; but no sooner had she come within hearing than sho opened upon mo n torrent of abuse for disturbing the sacred animals in their retirement. Sho motioned tno, with almost frantic gestures, to depart quickly, and her tongue never ceased till I was quite out of hearing. I was not long in fulfilling her com mands, as the monkeys all seemed im plicitly to obey her bidding, ond mudo a way for my retreat. When I quitted tho Jungle I met my servant, who said he was coming to tell mo not to dis turb tho monkeys, as Huniman owned that bamboo grove. Tho old woman. It appeared, was employed by the lirahmlns to give tho monkeys food every day; besldo which tlicy were worshiped by all tho peoplo in the country round, who brought offerings 'ji rice and swoctineats to them contin ually. AN EXPENSIVE DINNER. It Coot at tho Kate of fievon Hundred Imlp lura a i'luto. "History of tho cuisine fairly teema with descriptions of costly meals," re marked a resident of lirooklyn recent ly to a writer for the Washington Star. "We read how that profligate Hello gubalus, the Konian emperor, had a einglo dish on his table once that cost two hundred thousand dollars, end how another lloman, Aclin Verus, gavo a supper to a dozen cronies that cost a quarter of a million dollars. Then Vitclllus, still another Iloman aud nn emperor, likewise entertained hU brother at a littlo smack that used up a couple of hundred thousand; but theso were aneiont follows, who haJ nightingales' tongues and humming blrdV bruins and similar marvelous dainties. Coming down to modern days and plain, ordinary, everyday Lam and eggs, I ate a supper onoo in this very town that cost a friend of mine four teen hundred dollars. A geutlwaan .named Parker kept an establishment devoted to entertaining gentlemen at sundry games of chaneo. Ono nighl tno friend I speak of and myself wcr killing an evening horo together, when we conceived tho idea that a visit tc Parker's would bti Just tho thing. W put it into execution at once. I have nover gambled la my life, and my friend has not done It siaco. Wo went upstairs and entered tho room just as supper was announced. My friend did not want to cat anything, but I wa hungry, and when toina plausible ras cal of a dealer told mo that thoro was broiled Smithflcld Laia flanked with pwllote' eggs as a sort of silo Issue t the otherwise gorgoou3 feast I .broke for tho supper room, despito my cour panion's pleadings. Of course lie fol lowed mo when ho found his protesta tions woro useless, and we enjoyed tha feed Immensely. Whon wo came out my friend pulled out a twenty-dollai bill and said ho would pluy a turn ot two to pay for our supper. I bogged him In turn not to do it, but ho was as obdurate as I had been. lie lost his twenty-dollar bill and tried to got it back. In two hours fourteen hundred dollars wero gone glimmering. I have never felt so downright hungry since that a Blight request from a mere oo quaintanco cannot keep me away from a dead-bead food." Ttio Tulloet of the Root. According to an investigation con ducted under tho auspices of tho Inter national Society of Anthropologists of London, which has Just concluded an inquiry respecting tlie ovcr&go height of the various races and nationalities, English oixd American citizens averago taller than any other representatives of the human family. Tho English professional classes, who head tho list as tho tallest of adult moles, attain tho avoroge of 3 feet 0.14 lnohes. Next on the list como the males of all classes m the United State, and a minute fraction behind them come the English of all classes. In other European coun tries the average for the male adult la but 5 feet 6 Inches; the Auutrlans, tho Portuguese and the Spaniards fall somewhat below tho general European average.
