nate to abandon his position when trapped in the laager near Pnardoburg by Lord Roberta. His capture Is character! led as the catastrophe of the war. In that Its disheartening effect on the lurghers was felt throughout the war. Kruger Is referred t* as “the stateeon n grown gray In his country's eervcc.” and Gladstone as the “greatest and noblest of English statesmen.” General De Wet cells upon God to witness that independence was all that was asked Of the British government on March 5, 1800, and Lord Salisbury Is accused of misrepresenting the facta. General De Wet complains bitterly of British breech of faith, but declares that the result was not all favorable to the “Invaders.” He cites the promises given General Prinsloo and his men when they surrendered^ safety of property and permission to return unmolested to their farms being guaranteed. Instead of this the prisoners wen daported to Ceylon, and old people.were levied on for hundreds of pounds because British railroad property was destroyed In their neighborhood. As a result of this, be says, 5,000 palled Boers took up arms again and fought to the end of the war. He de-

scribes Lord Roberts as his (De Wet’s) best recruiting sergeant because of bis frequent breaches'of faith. General De Wet's state of mind throughout the war and after It Is exprcRsed by a sentence In the book: "Everything Is as It must be, and unless one is a sluggard one has no reason to complain.”

HerbCTt Wolcott Bowen. American oldster to Ycnesuela, ha* been quaUod .by twelve years In the diplomatic ervice of the nation and

gcncies which may arise at Caracas. He went to -his post there In the summer of 1801. succeeding Francis B. Loomis, who went to Portugal, but whose policy was carried out by bjp successor. Minister Bowen went ti) Venexuela from Persia, wberiT be had boon minister for two years, having been appointed In 1898 to succeed his brother-in-law, Arthur Sherburne Hardy, the novelist, who went to Athens as minister. But It was In Spain, before the oatbreak of hostilities between that country and the United States, that Minister Bowen gained the especial experience which will stand him In good stead In the Venezuela Imbroglio. He first went to that country In I860, being appointed consul at Barcelona by President Harrison. In 1885 President Cleveland made him consul general. Barcelona was the scene of manifestations of hostility toward the United States In March, 1896. The feeling was .aroused by the passage by the senate of the Morgan resolution which recognized the — ‘ A mob of several

thousand persons gathered In front of the United States consulate In Barcelona and with ahonts and execrations de-
