LOUIS BOTHA IS DEAD
South African Premier Victim
of influenza,
Death, Which Occurred at 1
tor'in, Was Sltoclg to Empire -Me
Was a Leader During Boer War,
Bat Was Subsequently Loyal
Supporter of British. Against
Whom He Once Fought.
PRETORIA, South Africa, Sept. 1.
-Gen. Louis Botha, Premier and
Minister of Agriculture of the. Union
of South Africa, died suddenly early
Thursday morning, Ioilowing„an at-
tack of influenza.
Soldier, statesman, patriot, the
late Louis Botha was for the past
twenty years an outstanding figure in
the affairs of the British Empire.
From an armed rebel who' led the
Transvaal forces in hitter opposition
to the British in South Africa, his
transition to Premier of South Africa
and to arm allegiance to the Empire
he once fought, is marked, yet logic-
ally
ogiaally consistent with the nature of the
man. To Gen. Botha is due a great
share of the credit for South Africa's
loyalty during the recent war, and
for suppression of the attempted re-
bellion in the fall of 1914.
Louis Botha was born at Grey -
town, Natal, in 1863, and was a
member of the first Voolka-radt of
Transvaal in which he represented
the district of Vryheid. At the be-
ginning_ of the Boer War in 3899, he
was veldt -cornet for that district.
Joining the Boer forces in Northern
Natal, he soon rose to high com-
mands. He was in charge of the
Boer forces at the Battle of Colonso
and Spion Kop, and following the
death of Gen. P. J. Joubert, he was
made commander-in-chief of Trans-
vaal Boers. After the fall of Pre-
toria he reorganized the Boers with
a view to prolonged guerilla warfare,
his forces offering steady resistance
to the British up till late in 1901.
Following the peace negotiations
between the Boers and the British,
Gen. Botha took a leading role in
the period of reconstruction. After
the grant of self-government to the
Transvaal in 1907, Gem Botha was,
called upon to form a government.
This honor he resigned in December,
1912,,, owing to ,dissension in. the
Cabinet, 'but was immediately asked
to form a new government. At the
outbreak of the Great,War in 1914,
Gen. Botha took command.of the
Union forces in Southwest Africa,
achieving a complete success and
compelling the German troops in that
region to surrender. With Gen. Jan
Christian Smuts, Gen. Botha signed
the peace treaty with Germany on
behalf of the Union of South Africa,
June 28, last. He arrived in Cape
Town from Europe on July 28.
A recent biography said:
Gen. Botha is as remarkable phy-
sically as he is mentally. He weighs
230 pounds, in strict training. stands
six feet high, is a crack rifle shot, a
skilful boxer, and is handsome into
the bargain. But despite his im-
mense physique, he is extremely
unostentatious, and his sauve
courtesy is in striking contrast to the
brusque manners of the majority of
the Boers. His wife, to whom he
was married on December 13, 1388,
was Miss Annie Clere Emmet, and he
has three sons, all of whom were out
with him in his recent campaign. The
oldest, as a mere lad of twelve or
thereabouts, went on commando with
his father in the old war.
Saw Canadian Crucified.
ST. ' CATHARINES, Sept. 1. -
About the first St. Catharines man to
leave for the front and about the last
to get back is the record of Lieut.
T. Edward Jones of this city, who
got home Friday. He left St. Oath-,
arines with the old St. Catharines
7th Battery on August 28, 1914, and
saw all the hard fighting the Cana-
dians had.
"I saw the first Canadian they
crucified," said he. " Ile was a ser-
geant of the 15th Machine Gun Bat-
talion, and it was in April, 1915,
There was no support and they drove
us back a mile and a half. The
Huns captured this poor fellow and
pinned him up to a barn door. They
ran one of their saw -like bayonets
through his stomach, and they pin-
ned his wrists and legs with Ross
rifle Canadian bayonets."
"Do you suppose he was alive
when they crucified him?" he was
asked,
"I certainly do, because when we
got to him he was still bleeding,"
was the lieutenant's reply.
All Quiet In Germany.
BERLIN, Sept. 1. - CompIaints
that the German 'workers no longer
possess revolutionary vigor, and that
they cannot be induced to strike for
any political aims, have featured a
two-day conference of 52 delegates
of the Extreme Independent Sparta -
can sections, who claim to represent
many thousands of workers. The
conference was held in Halle for the
purpose of discussing means to over-
throw the Government and to fo-
ment a world revolution. It was re-
solved to organize a central bureau
in Halle, but the president of the
conference himself admitted that it
would be unwise to attempt to use
force to overthrow the Government
because the German proletariat was
not sufficiently revolutionary,
U. S. Wants More.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1. -- An
amendment to the peace treaty pro-
viding that the United States shall
Piave as many representatives sentatives as the
British Empire on the League of Na-
tions Assembly was adopted by the
Senate Foreign Relations Com-
mittee.
The vote was 9 to 8, Senator Mc-
Cumlre.t', Republican, North Dakota,
standing with the Democrats against
the amendment, The provision as
framed would not reduce the six
votes held by Great Britain and its
dominions on the assembly, but
simply would provide that the
United States have equal represen-
tation.

BIG FAIR IS OPE1.
Management Want Attendance a of One
and a Quarter Million.
TORONTO, Aug. 25.-'lne Toronto
Exhibition opened a day earlier than
usual this year. The formal cere-
monies, at which B.R,H. the Prince
of Wales will preside take place to-
day, but the gates were thrown open
on Saturday, and all the exhibits were
in' place for the visitors to the
ground*. The war relics were all on
view; the Canadian. War Memorial
paintings could be seen in the gal-
leries, and the Grenadier Guards'
Band provided'_two programs, one in
the afternoon arid the other. inthe
evening. In addition, there,was a -mili-
tary tattoo in front of the grandstand
in place of 'the big spectacle which
is offered during the two weeks of
the fair. By opening on Saturday,
the management gave themselves an
extra day on which to reach the high
objective which they have set •for this
year. More than the usual interest
is manifested in the aim of the Ex-
hibition authorities to reach the one
and a quarter million mark in at-
tendance. The highest attendance
yet recorded was in 1913, when'
1,009,000 people swarmed through
the gates of Exhibition Park, or
about 84,000 a day during the 12
days of the Exhibition. This year
there will be 13 days in which to
struggle toward the goal aimed at,
but a daily average attendance of 86,-
000
6;000 will be necessary if it is to be
reached.
Several reasons are advanced in
support of the general opinion that
the high-water mark will be reached:
The extra day the Exhibition will be
open is given as the greatest factor
toward that end. It is also pointed
out, however, that the fair has this
year awakened an interest far keen-
er than that of previous years; that,
following the years of war, the car-
nival spirit is prevalent everywhere;
that everyone wants to see the Prince
of Wales, and that, as the result of
the increased advertising the Ex-
hibition authorities have carried, on
in the United States, there will be a
greatly increased influx of American
exhibition -goers.
The following table shows the
daily attendance for last year and
for 1913, when the record number
of admissions was reached:
1913. 1914.

Ex -Kaiser Is Costly Visitor.
AMERONGEN, Aug. 25. - Under
the headline, "An expensive foreign-
er in Amerongen," the Amsterdam
Handelsbiad, a copy of which has
been received here, says 19 police-
men, the salaries of whom total 75
guilder daily, have been guarding the
former German. Emperor since No-
vember.
"So the Kaiser already has cost
our country a total of 20,000 guild-
er," says the newspaper. "Truly an
expensive foreigner."
It is understood here that there
has been no change in the status of
the former German Emperor with
the Netherlands Government, and
that he is still confined to certain
limits. Report has it that he expects
to bring to Holland his own furniture
front German castles to furnish his
newly purchased home, the House of
Doorn, if the German Government
gives its consent.
Street Markets Beating Profiteers.
LONDON, Aug. 25. - The British
campaign to defeat profiteers received
new impetus Saturday when hun-
dreds of people from the surround-
ing district poured into Oxford to
purchase from the street market or-
ganized by the Trades and Labor
Council. The stalls were besieged for
hours, and every class of purchaser
was there. Prices were nearly fifty
per cent. below that in the shops. All
over Great Britain street markets are
being opened to fight profiteers, and
success in such a high-class city as
Oxford foreshadows extension to
places that never expected street
markets.
Returned Soldier Drowns.
BROCKVILLE, Aug. 25. -Stanley
Woodman, 23 years old, of Hamilton,
N,Y., while bathing Saturday at Ter -

to throw up his hands and drown.
The body was recovered a few min-
utes later, but efforts with a --pul-
motor at resuscitation were unavail-
ing. He had come to the park only
Friday night, and had been engaged
to teach school at Alexandria Bay.
It is thotfght he was a victim of heart
failure, due to sudden immersion in
cold water.
Employment Conditions Better.
OTTAWA, Aug. 25. -Employment
conditions in Ontario and Quebec are
improving, according to reports made
to the Department of Labor by em-
ployers throughout these two pro-
vinces.
During the week ending August 9,
2,686 firms increased their em-
ployes by 591, an increase of .2 per
cent., and expected a further jump
in the following week of 2,071 work-
ers, or .6 per cent.
Germans to Found League of Nations.
GENEVA, Aug. 25. -The Munich

Japan and the "smaller nations dis-
satisfied with the Paris Conference."

THE WESTERN FAIR
LONDON, ONTARIO
September fith. to 18th..
The management of the Exhibition,
London, Ontario, is to be congratu-
lated on having secured for the Mid-
way attraction this year the famous
Johnny J. Jones Exposition which is
without doubt, the greatest array of
all-star feature attractions that have
ever been seen with any outdoor
Amusement enterprise. This ex-
position includes about thirty shows
and rides, all of which are of the
very best quality. They will require
over fifteen hundred feet of frontage
to accommodate their shows. This
will be something new and different
from anything ever presented to
Western Fair visitors. The platform
attractions will be of a very high ord-
er, consisting of Horse Acts, Trained
Elephants, Trained Dogs, Monkeys
and other animals, also some very
high class platform acts, which will
be announced later.
