KRUGER VISITS PARIS
Exiled Transvaal President Is
Greeted as a Conquering Hero.
HE IS CHEERED BY MANY THOUSANDS
Hit Tour Through the French Itepnbllc
Wilt Continuous Ovation —No
Trouble Apprehended.
Oom Panl Kruger has become for a
time at least the popular idol of the
French. His triumphant progress
northward through the country from
Marseilles to Dijon and from Dijon to
Paris settled this beyond doubt. He
met a tremendous reception in each
town along the route where the train
stopped, culminating in scenes of
frenzied enthusiasm calculated to turn
the head of any man.
The population of Marseilles gath
ered in thousands to escort him to the
railroad station and gave him a rous
ing send-off, while at Tarascon, Avig
non, Valence, Lyons, Macol and Dijou
the inhabitants, who crowded ihe rail
road stations, made the rafters tremble
with enthusiastic shouts of “vive Kru
ger” and “vive les Boers.”
Saturday the city ol Paris welcomed
Mr. Kruger in a whole-hearted man
ner, according him a sincere reception
at the railroad station and showing by
the cheering,of the crowds along the
route that he was cordially welcome
Mud had the sympathy of the populace.
From early morning the street haw
kers did not permit the throngs to
forget that it was Kruger day. All
sorts of insignia were offered for sale.
Small Boer flags, badges of the Boer
colors and scarf pins of the same
character were called out on the bou
levards and lucky were the salesmen,
for almost every one wore a Boer
t mblem.
By the time Kruger’s train was due
all the places of vantage about the rail
road station and the hotel were packed
for the distance of about a block.
Among those gathered at the railroad
station were Count Boni do Caste-liane
and several other well known national
ists and M ss Maude Gonne and a party
from the Irish delegation. The crowd
on the platform pressed so closely
about Mr. Kruger's salon car that for
a time he was unable to alight and
stood on the footboard, bareheaded,
acknowledging the plaudits of his ad
mirers.
Mr. Crozier, chief of the protocol
department of the foreign office, to
which is intrusted the questions of
etiquette and the reins of diplomats,
and others advanced and bid Mr.
Kruger welcome in behalf of President
Loubefc nud the French government.
Mr. Kruger bowed his thanks.
Mayor Grevaul then greeted Mr.
Kruger in behalf of the municipality
of Paris, and the president of the pro-
Boer committee and others presented
the aged traveler with addresses of
welcome, to which Mr. Kruger replied
that he was extremely happy to-apaiu
find himself in the beauty city of Paris,
and asserted that he was touched to
the bottom of bis heart by the welcome
he had received and could not find
words to express his appreciation of
the sympathy Frenchmen were dis
playing toward his country. He con
cluded with sayixg ho had faith in the
Boer nation, which, though temptest
tossed, would keep afloat aud never
sink.
A sight which stirred the feelings of
the crowd to the utmost was the ap
pearance on the hotel balcony of the
great, grandchildren of Mr. Kruger,
waving a Boer flag. The little ones
were cheered to the echo ns, held aloft
by a servant, they unfurled the Boer
colors.
Through all this fervid welcome the
anti-British sentiment did not appear.
The cries were confined to plaudits of
Mr. Kruger and the Boers. If there
were any shouts opposed to Great
Britain they were not heard in the
general tumult. *

ELECTROCUTED BIRDS.
Attractive Looking Perches Which Prove
Treacherous When Tried.
If birds only knew better they
wouldn’t do their love making on eloc
-1 • transmission wires. The impru
dence of 1 hat procedure lias been fre
quently proved, notably last year in
the ease of the two owls and the two
eagles which were oremated on the
lint's of a long distance transmission
circuit in California. It will be re
membered that by a strange element
of selectiveness iu the action of the
current the owls were unusually fa
vored, being killed without the sligh
est disfigurement and failing to the
ground with hardly a feather ruffled,
while the greater part of the two
eagles went up iu blue smoke.
A similar fate had befallen a pair of
fowls which sought the shelter of a
powerhouse in Canada for their even
ing roost. The power company which
supplies ihe City of Three Rivers gen
erates its current sixteen miles away
aud transmits i( to the city at a pres
sure of twelve thousand volts. A few
evenings ago, just as the dusk was
coming on to feed the city lights be
gan to show on tiie ampere-meters, the
circuit breakers blew, the fuses blew
and the lights were out. The lights
soon started up again, and there was
no further trouble. The following day
the electrician went ou a tour of in
vestigation. Entering the sub-station
at Three Rivers, lie noticed in a pro
nounced form tiie smell of a badly
conducted restaurant. Looking around,
he found tiie cause of the previous
night’s interruption. A window’ had
been broken in tiie station,and through
this two chickens had slipped inside
and roosted on tiie bare copper con
ductors. As Chanticleer kissed Riddie
“good night” lie completed tiie circuit,
the lovers were electrocuted and tiie
lights were put out.—St. Louis Globe-
Democrat.

PAIN OPENED HER SKULL
ESrs. Lasher's Remarkable Story—Dr. Greene’s S&rvura
Cured Her.
" * u
MHS. FRED. C. I.AHnKR, Jll.
The case of Mrs. Fred. t'. Lasher, Jr., a well-known woman of Westport,
N. Y„ is one of the most interesting on record. It is an actual fact that head
aches caused her head to split.
“ For thirteen years,” she says, “I suffered from terrible headaches night
and day, until the bones of my skull opened ho that the doctor could lay his
thumb right iuto the opening on to my bruin. Two doctors attended me and
claimed that I was on the verge of insanity. 1 was ..under their care for nine
years, but got no relief. Then 1 tried Dr. Greene’s Nervura biood and nerve
remedy, and inside of a j’ear the bones of my head had taken their natural
shape again.”
That Mrs. Lasher’s statements are true Is vouched for by reliable men of
Westport, and by a Justice of the Peace there. Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood
and nerve remedy cured M rs. Lasher when all other remedies failed, and it cures
thousands of sufferiag women every year. If your head aches, if you cannot
sleep and are weak and nervous, remember that this great curative agent, Dr.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, will make yon well and strong.
Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remedy is a physician’s
prescription, formulated from a discovery after years of invest Ra
tion and experiment. Dr. Greene, 35 West 14th St., New York City,
is the discoverer. He can be consulted free personally or by letter.
