Their Prnaprct nt I'nrllnl I'm-dom. Oliallnnc) ul lrlllli OUcrri, Howard Urcgg of Sun Francisco Is familiar with tbe Iloers on account of a nsldcnce of some yours' duration at Johannesburg, and the other day, In spending of tlie South African war at tbe Waldorf-Astoria to a reporter of tbo New York Tribune, bo snld: "I do not share tbo generally express ed opinion that tho llocr Is lighting for hopelessly lost cause. Ily that t do not mean that bo will again occupy the position be did prior to the commence ment of hostilities, but I am Inclined to tho opinion that sooner or later n peace will be declared in which greater or less frcfcfom and ludepcndcuco to tho Iloers as a nation will be guaran teed. Certainly I'.dward Vlt's procla mation naming Mltner ns paramount lord of tbo Transvaal would seem to point In this direction. If Hugtnnd doesn't comprotnlso with tbo Iloers, Iboy will make her tenure of tbo coun tty a disagreeable and cxprnslva thing. 1 believe tbey can keep up tho guerrilla system of warfare they bavo embarked on for years, nnd so long ns nuy of tbem nro left In tho Held hearing arms England will bo forced to maintain n beary military establishment In South Africa so heavy, Indeed, that It will soon provo a heartbreaking strain to tho taxpayers. Tbo Ilrltlsh soldier learns but slowly and Is tied up In red tapo and tradition. A friend of mine who Ferved there gnvo mo an Instance of tho nonprogrcsslvcness of their otll cere which would bavo brought on n court martini bad It occurred In tho American army. When night fell, tho rear guard of tho Doers could be dis cerned going over a kopjo some seven' mlk's nhcad nf tho English advance, so. that It was practically certain that tbo Itocrs that night would encamp within easy riding distance of tho English camp. Seeing this, my friend made up his mind to go on and see If ho could not pick up some Information that would provo of vnluo In tho next day's operations. "In pursunnco of this Idea bo applied to tho officer commanding tho advance for a couple of troopers to accompany him, nt tho snma tlmu explaining wbnt sort of work be proposed doing. 'What do you want tho men for? Why can't you go it alone?' tho olllcer Inquired. Because,' was tbo reply, 'when I ap proach within a certain dlstanco I shall not dare to ro nearer on horse back on account of tbo nolso, but will havo then to go forward on foot In that caso it will bo Imperative for mc to hare some one to bold my horso for mc.' Notwithstanding this explana tion tho olllcer refused to lend tbo troopers, saying that ho had no author ity to uso bis men for such a purpose. My friend, being set on his plan, how ever, went on alone and by riding In nnd out succeeded In getting quite near to tho Boer camp without being scon. Ho discovered that their pickets wero very careless and that tho watch kept was most Inelllclcut. Indeed, If bo bad bad a dozen troopers with him ho mado sure that ho could havo rushed them and destroyed two and possibly tlirco of their guus. Ho picked up a lot 'of miscellaneous and valuable Informa tion, however, with which he returned to camp. Once back, bo reported toi the general In command, told what ho bad dono and was about to glvo hlin tho Information be bad picked op when lie wni Interrupted by the general.' 'Who In told you to go scouting? the Irato commander demanded, and, the result wns that the two men parted with bad blood between them, and my friend Is still tbo solo owner of tbo Information bo had picked up, for tho general refused to- listen to It This story Is literally true. I am not at lib erty to give names, because It might get people Into trouble. It doesn't show a progressive spirit on tbo part of tho Kngllsh army olllcer, though. Do you think so?" SWEDEN'S NEW RIFLE. It Itraemhlea the 3ln.er nnd Uaea (life Snma Cnrlrldae. Experiments have recently been car ried out at Ilosersbcrg, Sweden, on a now automatic rltlo which Lieutenant Colonel Lemchcn, director of the school for shooting there, says has all tho qualities which could bo desired name ly, practical uso and simplicity of con struction. The rltlo resembles tbo Mau ser In appearance, having tho tamo cal iber ami consequently taking tho satue cartridge, says tho- Cologne tiazettc. When tho magazine Is filled with rounds, each ono Is passed automatic ally Into tho firing chamber after each shot without tho necessity of any ac tion at tho breech on tbo part of tbo Urcr, Tho magazine once charged, tho sol dier has nothing to do but to aim and tiro until It Is empty.
