    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. Pi-nrUME MEASURED DY CENTS

NAMES OF CHILDREN.
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

SACRED MONKEYS.
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.
