COOLNESS OF LOUIS BOTHA.
Hia Nerve In Dealing With • Savage
Zulu Chieftain.
A story of the cool daring of General
Louis Botha, whose name Is so Inti
mately associated with dramatic epi
sodes in the history of South Africa,
appears In his biography written by
Harold Spender. It happened one win
ter when young Botha had taken sheep
for pasturage across tho Drakensberg
mountains and down to the warmer
coast lands, which were still In the
grip of the Zulus.
One tranquil day a young natlre
rushed Into Botha's camp. Ho breath
lessly warned the young Boer to fly
and save his life. Mapelo was "out."
The most bloodthirsty of all the ruf
fianly gangs that were then ravaging
Zululand was the well mounted and
well armed gang of Mapelo. Only an
hour or two before, said the native, he
had cut the throat of a missionary at
the old mission station, about six miles
from Botha's camp. The native him
self had Just left the body of the un
happy man lying still and warm on his
own dining room table.
Botha bad little time to make up his
mind, but one thing was clear—he
could not desert his sheep. Most of
them belonged to his brothers. So he
be^an to prepare to face the raider.
Looking at his bandoleer, he found to
his dismay that he had only one car
tridge left. Scarcely had he discovered
the fact when a troop of Zulu horse
men appeared about a quarter of a mile
away over a rise of ground In extended
order and charged toward the wagon,
waving their rifles over their heads
and shouting like demons possessed.
Louis Botha rose and very deliber
ately mounted the bos seat of his wag.
on. lie laid his rifle in a conspicuous
place next him. Then ho proceeded,
with an outward calm very foreign to
his own Inner feeliugs, to light a match
and apply it slowly to his pipe.
Throwing away the match and look
ing up. he found that the native horse
men had drawn rein In a cloud of dust
Within a few yards of the front of the
wagon.
A few seconds of dead silence follow
ed, the natives glancing at Botha and
Botha eying them with a steady gaze
of surprise. Then Mapelo advanced
and said that his men were very hun
gry and wanted something to «at.
Botha gravely demurred at this stormy
way (if approach and coolly bargained
with the invader of his peace. At last
he agreed to give them one sheep on
the strict condition that they should
wllhdraw some distance from his
camp and not disturb him again. The
condition was accepted, and so ended
an incident that Botha has always de
scribed as one of the most disturbing
in his whole life.
One Inning, Six Hits, No Runs.
Ceo six bits be made In a half In
ning without the side making the hits
scoring a run?
TI1I9 question was put to the Chicago
News, whose expert says "Yes" and
explains:
The first man up triples and Is
thrown out at the plate. The second
inan triples and Is also nailed at the
home pan. The third, fourth and fifth
batsmen single, tilling the sacks. The
sixth man drives the ball between sec
ond und third, and the leather hits the
runner coming from second. The man
hit Is out, retiring the side, and the
man who hit bim gets a base rap.
This makes six consecutive safe raps
without one run being scored.
We Label Everything as Pure.
The word pure is a curious example
of the striving of people after perfla
tion. We have pure olive oil, pure
candy and pure reading matter. Ev
erything that we know is likely to be
adulterated we take pains to label
"pure." We never call pure the things
we know to be pure, but only thoso
things about which I here is an element
of doubt. Only In one particular do
we vary from this rule. If some kind
friend tells us the truth about our
selves we are very likely to refer to
that as pure nouseuse. — Woman's
Home Companion.
Long Distance Lecturing.
A pretentious person said to the bur
gess of a country village:
"How would a lecture by me on
Mount Vesuvius suit Ihe Inhabitants
of your village?"
"Very well, sir; very well indeed,"
answered the burgess. "A lecture by
you on Mount Vesuvius would suit
them a great deal better than a lecture
by you lu this village, sir."—Pitts
burgh Chronicle-Telegiaph.
Save Some Money.
Every one should try to live within
his Income and also to put away a lit
tle of his salary for use on a stormy
day. Don't watch the other fellow and
learn how much he is spending; watch
yourself and ascertain where you can
benefit It is time enough to Increase
your living expenses when your salary
Is advanced, when it is also ttine to
add to your bank account
Good Advice.
"The man I marry," she said, "must
think I am the only girl In the world."
"Don't worry about that," her mar
ried friend replied. "He will think It,
all right Just put in your time try
ing to find out how to make him keep
on thinking It."—Chicago Herald.
Getting Through the Shell.
"A man may have a rough exterior,
but a kindly heart"
"Yes," commented Senator Sorghum,
"but that kind of man is usually like
an oyster. He has to be handled very
rough to get any good out of him."—

Fighting the IniKta.
One hundred million dollar* are lost
to the United States every year dm to
the ravages of Insects In cropa. Half
these Insects were Imported, according
to the Popular Science Monthly.
Though insecticides are useful, they
are not effective under all condition*.
The most satisfactory result* have
been obtained by introducing other bi
sects which ftod upon the undesirable
foreign pests.
The threatened destruction of Oatlr
fomla's orange groves was arrested by
the Importation from Australia of •
certain species of ladybird. The tiny
workers were shipped In tin borea
placed on Ice Once released In the at
mosphere of southern California they
set about their appointed duty WltO
such avidity and multiplied eo rapidly
that the pesta were virtually wiped oat
In a very short time.
The Two Manilas.
There are t:wo Manilas now. One la
the old Spanish city. Inclosed by pic
turesque and massive walla, with nar
row and tortuous streets. This Manila
seems as old as time Itself, and It af
fords a remarkable contrast to the
busy, bustling American city that baa
grown up beyond Its falls. There la
nothing like it In the world, save per
haps Algiers, where an African Paris
has arisen beside the old Moslem city
which was once the headquarters of
the Barbary pirates.
The years of American occupation
have made Manila the cleaneet and
healthiest city In the orient, with tbe
possible exception of Hongkong, where
British sanitary science has accom
plished wonders.—Exchange.
