A Display of Dignity.
A Cape paper relates -an amusing story
of an incident that took place at one of
the informal gatherings of the leading
members of the Volksraad at President I
Kruger's house, in the days when Jou-
Bert and His Honor were not on the best
of terms. The President desired to con -
stilt some papers relating to, the subject
under discussion, and, as they were:
placed on a shelf some distance from the •
ground, made one or two futile attempts
to, reaoh them. Joubert, who is tall, ---
came to his assistance, saying:
"Let me bring them;• I am higher
than your"
"You are longer' Piet; not higher,"
corrected Kruger with a frown.
There are over 100 gold mines' in the
