LIVED AT KIA1BERLY FOR YEARS Is Well Acquainted with Cecil Rhodes nnd President Paul Krucgor of the Trnnsvnnl KoUibllc-IIc Docs Not Think Smith Africn Is n fiood Plnco for n Young Man Without .Menus to Co to Just nt This Time, but Relieves It llns n Great Future. There Is at present visiting In this city a gentleman who has, during the ten years previous to 1897, been Inti mately connected with the momentous occurrences In South Africn. The gen tleman Is Rev. James Hughes, pastor of tho Baptist church of Klmberly, South Africa. Rev. Mr. Hughes Is the RBV. JAMES HUGHES. guerft of his only brother. John Tit Hushes, of South Rebecca avenue, and Is accompanied on his visit here by his wife and child. The absence from his church Is an enforced one, due to the Instructions of the family physician. Rev. Mr. Hughes had already buried three chil dren and had ho not came away his wlfp and two other children, who were falling, would have succumbed. They paid a short visit to friends In Eng land, and then came to America for the first time to visit Mr. Hughes' broth er, whom he has not seen for over thirty-three years. Since coming they have all lmnroved In health rnnlrllv and are charmed with this country and our city. With the object of procuring some facts first hard from one who had been so long In touch with South African life, and especially at the time when the now famous "Jamleson Raid" oc curred, a Tribune reporter called upon Rev. Mr. Hughes and procurred the following Interesting story: MR. HUGHES STORT. Rev. James Hughes, a minister of the Baptist denomination, Is a native of Wales having been born in Blaena von. He entered the ministry Avhen a young man, received his first, call be fore his graduation from Pontypool Theological college. The call came from Lancashire, England, and Imme diately upon his graduation, he entered upon the charge, remaining there near ly twenty years. While yet In charge at Lancashire, a call came from Port Elizabeth, South Africa for a Baptist minister. Upon ap plication Rev. Mr. Hughes was strong ly recommended to accept the Invita tion by the president of the Baptist union of England and Ireland. He went, nnd after three years of suc cessful work at Port Elizabeth was sent by request of the leading men of the Baptist denomination of Cape Colony lo Klmberly, the natural center of the diamond fields In point of population. The object was to establish a Bap tist church In this place and so suc cessful was the effort that In three years and a half, a spacious structure was opened for the worship of God. The cost exceeded I2G.F.00 and the build ing had a seating capacity of nearly one thousand. The debt has been fully cleared, with the exception of a few debentlture bonds, held by church members. WHAT ARE PROMINENT. The white population Is composed of a great many diverse nationalities but tho Welsh speaking part Is very large. The great majority of the Welshmen there do very well and many attain prominence, as for Instance, the mayor of East London is a Welshman. The mayor of Port Elizabeth, Klmberly, and Cape Town are all born "Cymros." The manager and assistant mana ger of the government railways which cover quite a territory, are both Welsh men and the chief manager of the Beers Diamond mining company, the largest In South Africa, is a Welsh man, but of American birth. The gen tleman, Gardner F. Williams, is in deed a thorough American for all Klm berly knows when a national Ameri can holiday occurs by seeing the stars and stripes floating from Mr. Wil liams' residence. He Is the lineal de scendant of Robert Williams, only brother of Roger Williams, of Rhode Island fame. Mr. G. F. Williams comes by his ability naturally through a long line of capable ancertry and today is recog nized as one of tho most competent managers In the diamond Industry. "What Is your opinion of Cecil Rhodes?" was asked by the reporter. In response, Rev. Mr. Hughes said: "My opinion Is that the consensus of opinion among the Impartial thinking public, is that Mr. Rhodes Is one of the most capable men we have ever had In South Africa, and Is one of the best qualified men to develop the resources of that country. We all condemn Jameson's raid, and consider that Mr, Rhodes In that case, committed a huge blunder for which the whole colony Is sorry. Yet, while we admit that it was a great wrong, It was not a wrong unprovoked. OPINION OF RHODES. "As these questions are under tho consideration of a parliamentary In quiry In Great Britain, I think It In considerate to say more In relation to this matter. As every man ought to have his due, however, allow me to say that Mr. Rhodes Is the most lib eral man south of the Tambesl In South Africa. He ivas tho hardest working public man In the country. He Is the strongest Imperialist and Is endowed with larger capabilities than nearly any other man In Cape Colony." "I suppose, then, you are acquainted with Oom Paul, or know something of his personal characteristics," was a, query of the reporter, "Oh. yes," said Mr. Williams, "my personal conviction Is that President Paul Krueger, of the Transvaal Re public, Is a man endowed with very large natural capabilities, and If edu cated to the extent of some ot the present men ot other countries, he woutd be a really conspicuous figure In contemporaneous publlo lite. I be lieve him to bo a good man In tho truest sense of the word, but some what misled In political matters by Hollanders, who are hlghjy trained In state craft, I am persuaded that If President Krueger were left to not ac cording to his own natural Instincts and Intelligence, the trouble In tho Transvaal would never have occurred. Or, If anything had, by lnadvertancy, occurred, It would have been settled In the most amicable and satisfactory manner." "What about other prominent men of the Capo Colony?" was further asked of Rev. Mr. Hughes. , MANY ABLE MEN, "Well, in addition to these two pre viously spoken of, wo have a liberal sprinkling of very Intelligent public and professional men. The prime min ister at present In Cope Colony Is Sir Gordon Hprague, and ne Is a gentle man who stands high In the estima tion of nearly every section of the country. Ho Is the son of a Baptist minister, nnd served, years ago, as par liament reporter In tho house of com mons for a leading London dally. Sir Gordon Is surrounded In the Capo leg islative assembly by a fair number of practical statesmen. Men of consider able erudition, energy and self-sacrifice." "In the legal profession we have gen tlemen who rank high In the opinion of even the great legal lights of England and we, of the Cape Colony, are proud of our Judges and barristers. Com mercial men are to be found In every great centre of Industry of the coun try, who are distinguished for their business capacity, energy and success. Many of them have thus made their fortunes In South Africa. "What are the general prospects of the country" was the next query. "In answer to that question I would ay that,, Judging from statements which I have received from reliable experts! In different branches, my delllerat9 conclusion Is that there Is a very bright prospect before South Africa, The mineral resources of the country are both varied and rich. The agricultural capabilities of the country, especially fruit cultivation, warrant the conclu sion that profitable fields of Industry will continue to open up for many years to come wherein thousands of poor men will find remunerative em ployment. LACK OF WATER. "The great drawback to agricultural pursuits is want of water. The Cape Colony government has coped some what successfully with this difficulty by procuring a quantity of diamond drills and using them In locating water In every locality of the colony that was advisable. This was and Is being done at the government's expense. In every case, water of a good quality has been found In abundance at depths varying from a few feet to several yards. "These testings unquestionably prove the existence of abundant water, but a short distance below the surface. Act ing upon this proof, the more rnergetlc members of the Cape parliament have decided to advocate a. scheme of Irri gation throughout tho colony at tho full or partial expense of the govern ment. "This will make, should It ever come to pass, and no doubt It will, the means of living In South Africa considerably cheaper than at present. The two great Items of expense In living out there, -are house rent and 'fuel. The fuel obtainable Is almost entirely wood. The climate, on the whole, Is really charming and where there Is sufficient water, vegetation, fruit and flowers are luxuriant. "At present, however, I would cer tainly not recommend young men to go there unless they have employment to go to when they arrive. Because the labor market 13 glutted to a very large extent. In addition to that, war clouds are hovering over the country. Though I do not believe this present misunderstanding will end In a war, still It would be wise to allow the clouds to pass away and mutual con cord be realized between all the states, before men without capital at least, rush out there. A GREAT OUTLET. "I am fully persuaded that South Africa In a very, very short space of time will prove one of the grandest out-lets for the congested population of the older countries. Also a country where labor will be adequately enum erated. "And what bearing has the press up on the aspect of affairs In Cape Colony" queried the reporter. "The press of South Africa In the Cape Colony Is do ing a great deal of good In the coun try," Bald the speaker. The tone of many pt the papers Is high and honor able. The management of the press generally Is very creditable and re liable." "Of course the religious part of the community is well taken care of?" was asked. "As far as Cape Colony is concerned, nearly every section of the church of God Is found there in a flour ishing condition. In the year of 1875 the Eplscopalean, or Church of Eng land, was disestablished and since that time all churches enjoy the same legal rights and I am pleased to say that the whole of Capo Colony seems to be Interlaced with religious organizations and Christian Influences. "How do the recently established Baptist missions piosper there?" "It Is indeed only of late years that the Baptist church In South Africa has been able to take up mission work among tho natives. But since we com menced, a great deal of Juetul work has been accomplished. Four missions have been started. Two of them In dustrial missions. In which tho native Is taught to work and pray." CONVERSANT WITH AFFAIRS. Rev. Mr. Hughes seemed to be very conversant with the political as well as the moral sldo of affairs in that country. Necessarily so as ho was fflllMtllllllllllllnul IF Your coffee is not suiting you, try some at the Scranton I Cash Store a, much In demand upon publlo occasions and being, as1 ho was, In the direct cur rent of business life and preaching to a congregation whose members were allied with all the publlo Interest In many ways he 1b thus able to Judga things in their true light.

Emas McLean, who died at the Moses Taylor hospital Friday evening, was a man of unusual Intel lectual and moral power and Christian spirit. He was a graduate of Hamil ton college and Auburn Theological seminary, and took high raffk In schol arship. He was for some years a for eign missionary In Chill, South Ameri ca, with his brother, the Rev. Robert McLean. The fervid consecrated ser vice of the "McLean Brothers," as for eign missionaries, had antered Into the history of the Chilian mission. Owing to the failure of tho health of his family, Mr. McLean returned to this country and devoted his life to home missions on the Pacific coast In Ore gon. He was so self-sacrificing In his service that a simple reference to It by one of the home missionary sec retaries at the general assembly stirred the great audience with sympathetic admiration. On the death of his wife to whom he was most tenderly at tached, Mr. McLean returned east with his five children, with the hope of re gaining his own greatly Impaired health. The Presbyterian church in Elmhurst will never forget his able and spiritual ministry, nor the Pres bytery of Lackawanna his Inspiring ex ample and Chrlst-llke spirit. But he never regained his health and for the past ye m and a half has been calmly waiting for the summons, cheered nnd comforted by the devotion of his chil dren. His wife, who he burled In Or egon, wp a beloved sister of Mrs. William Hanley and Mrs. W. C. Wood ward, of this city.

Verdict in tho Patch Cnso nnd the Cnso of Connolly Against Shannon--Court Crier Snyder Wins a Suit in Which Ho Was Plaintiff. All day long, Currlngton Von Storch, tho defendant In the Von Storch land suit, underwent a flro of questioning and cross-questlonlng from tho ten lawyers engaged In tho case, and at adjournment they were not yet through with him. Judge Jessup did the actual Interrogating for tho rlpfnnr. nnrt Mo. Jor Warren for the cross-examlnsrs. it was a trying ordeal and when the day was over he gave unmlstakablo signs of fatigue. Today at 11 o'clock the Judge, Jury, attorneys and Interested parties will go to Providence to look over tho ground In dlsnute. A nnpolnl r win be engaged so that there will be no un necessary delay. After the Inspection a recess will be taken until 9.30 o'clock Monday morning, Judge Archbald agreeing to postpone the opening half an hour to accommodate one of the Jurors, who lives over the mountain, and who wants to go home for Sunday. It looks very much now as if the case would occupy the greater part of next week. The defendant's testimony yesterday v as virtually a repetition of the story told by Mr. Umsted In making the opening for the defense, which was1 printed In substance In Tuesday's Is sue. THE CROSS-EXAMINATION. In cross-xamlnatlon tho plaintiff's attorneys strove to bring out that Wil liam Von Storch has had full control of the property in dispute ever since ihe time It Is alleged he came into ownership, that he made the Improve ments thereon, received the rentals therefor, and that Currlngton Von Storch only occupied It through the graclousness of his uncle. During the morning the witness was asked what his uncle. Godfrey, said when he heard that Anel Bennett, of Blnghamton. had been put In control of the property. "My conscience won't allow me to repeat It," was the wit ness' laughter-producing answer. The trial Is attracting unusual at tention among the members of the bar, there scarcely ever being a time when there are not at least a dozen lawyers taking In the proceedings, not count' Ing the dozen or so connected with the case. Before Judje Lynch yesterday morn ing, Court Crier J. B. Snyder prose cuted hlfi suit against S. B. Molt for the recovery of a commission of $100. which he alleged was promised hint for negotiating the sate of a. couple of Jots owned by the defendant's sis ter. Mr. Mott denied that "Uncle Jakp" figured In the deal at all, but when John Benore, the purchaser, and n number of other witnesses gave evi dence to the effect that n had, the jury concluded that he was entitled to the hundred. Taylor & Lewis, repre sented the plaintiff, and John F. Scragg the il-'fenriant. SHIFFER'S CLAIM. A Jury went out at 3 o'clock to pass upon Elijah Shifter's claim for $1000 damage s, to which extent he. alleges his property was injured by the- grading of Tenth street. He avers that the cut ting down of the street has left his property so high above grade that. It will cost $S00 or thereabouts to bring it down to where It will be conveniently approachable from the street. The city held that the property's value has been Increased by reason of the grading. Mr. Burns appeared for the plaintiff and Mr. Torrey for the city. The Jury In the case of Owen Con nolly against Thomas Shannon re turned a verdlot In favor of the de fendant. A rule for a new trial was afterwards granted. In the case of George C. Patch and I.larj Patch, his wife, against the city of Scranton, the Jury returned a ver dict In favor of the defendant, as re lates to the husband's suit, and for $417.60 In favor of Mrs. Patch.
