'The United States second otass

of tho naval reserves of the various

one week of good, hard praotice,which
will constitute lessons in navigation
and the mechanism of the guns. There
will also be target practice.
There are a number of negroes
aboard the I’rairie, and some of the
reserves were of the opinion that they
would he forced to associate with the
darkies. This Is not so. The local
reserves will have hunks apart from
those of the blaok men, and there will
be no foroed association with the
crew whatever. Their rations will be
served in separate quarters, and the
New Orl-ans reierves need have no
fear on this point.

St. I.ouis, May 2.—The Washington
correspondent of the Republic wires
the following to bis paper:
Webster Davis, uutil reoently assist
ant secretary of the interior, has re
ceived from the United States consul
at Lorenzo Marqu°z the fo lowing in.
teresting letter, written to the consul’s
wife by Mrs. Reitz, the wife of the
seoretary of state of the south African
republic:
“Pretoria, March 11, 1900.—Many
things have happened sinoe I wrote
you last. We did mind losing
Ladysmith and Kimberly much, but
we were very sorry about Croi je. We
knew him to be a brave man and we
all prayed God that it might please
Him to restore him and his burghers
to, us. Tbe president asked tbe people
to pray for him on three successive
Rights, and lie hoped that be might
fight his way out. Will God utterly
forsake us'd Perhaps He will still
hear us in His own good time. We
oannot turn back now and we do not
mean to. May Gjil hive mercy on
us.
“1 see in today's paper that 54,000
more troops are ooming. The outlook
is certainly not bright now, I suppose
you have beard that Baden-Dowell at
Mafeking threatened to send armed
Kafllra to invade the Rustenburge and
Marioo districts if we did not with
draw our forces by Marob 3, and he
has actually done so. Our gen°ral
warned him that he would have to
take the eon sequences. Kbama’s Kaf
firs are wall armed and cruel beyond
words to women and obildren. The
men there are (mostly away on com
mando. English officers with cannon
are leading the Kaffirs. You know
that they tried this experiment before
and how they themselves had to ac
knowledge how completely the Kaffirs
got out of band. I heard today how
two women were murdered there.
“If God means the British to crush
this, our people, t do not Ihink they
will And many men left. We do not
fear the great number of English
troopa—tbey cannot shoot—but it is
the cannon we oan do so little against.
“Will your people not help u-? Per
bape your government will not let
them. I shall pray God night and day
that He may move the heart of your
president and lay such words in the
mouth of Webster Davis as will go
borne to the people of America to make
them listen tc the cries of the little
child that is being murdered here by a
big and atrong man, as our president
expressed it.”

Monument to Oglethorpe.
The movement started by an associ

Brunswick to erect a monument to the
memory of Gen. Jamea Oglethorpe de

from all the people of Georgia.^
It seems rather remarkable that in
all the years that have elapsed since
Oglethorpe founded the colony of
Georgia at Frederica no monument
has ever been erected there to his
memory. This negleot should now be
atoned for. An announoement has
been issued by tbe Brunawiok associ
