SOUTH AFRICAN NATIVES.
Basutos Employed by the British oa Military
Railroads.
The British are employing a largo ;
number of Basutos to repair anil lay
the railroads in the Orange Free State
that are essential to the advance of

inunications with the base of supplies.
Thus th.? natives are uow to partiei- '
pate, for tin- lirst time ou a large scale,
iu work that is related to the war.
The Basutos,have no friendly seutirueuts
for the Orange Free State Boers
who incorporated in their republic a
part of Basutoland. The Zulus have
always hated the Transvaal Boers.
t with whom they had many a hard tight
in what is now Natal, and by whom
the Matabele braueh of the Zulus were
driven north of the Crocodile River.
The Basutos and Zulus are the strongest
native elements in South Africa.
These tribes supply a large part of the
manual labor throughout South Africa,
but their ellicieney falls below that of I
the average American negro. Tiiey
have not reached the same plain' of
civiliation, tlu-ir wants are fewer and
more easily supplied, and after a term
of service they usually wish to return
to their homes for a long period of idleness;
so it has been found necessary to
supplement them by the importation
of thousands of Indian eoolies. Still,
they are by far the largest element in
ihe labor market. Sixty thousand of
them were at work in the Wit watersraud
gold fields when the war began;
all the labor in the diamond mines is
supplied by the natives, and they are
widely scattered at service through the
towns and over the sheep and cattle
farms.
They are prisoners as long as they
work in the diamond mines, for one of
the rigorous measures taken to prevent
ie tn kcon the native

laborers in a compound from which
they never emerge during their tenn of
service, except to march, under escort,
to and from their work. But the South
' African natives are progressing, ant
their value as a factor in the develop
inent of the laud is growing.
Some people insist upon hidingtheir
light under a bushel when a thimble
would be quite large enough for the
purpose.
The average toy makers in Saxony
makes about one cent an hour.
A Very Interesting Sight.
Anyone riding along the Seaboard
Air Line, on the Georgia division, can ^
see a very interesting sight as they 2
go southward, on the right hand side
of the road in the northern part ot
Auburn?a side walk for a half mile,
that is bordered with beautiful lilies.
This is the work of our Industrial c
Agent. Mrs. J. C. Hawthorne. She a
has planted these lilies along the side
walk from her home to within a short
distance of the S. A. L. depot. She
does not seem to think she has done
very much towards beautifying her
town, and is constantly planning f
something she can do to make a re- j
cord for herself. Mrs. Hawthorne is a
a very quiet, unassuming lady, but she 0
and her good husband have taken so *
much interest in the industrial work
being done on the S. A. L., that neither
of them have missed a single meet- n
ing of the Industrial Agents, and al- u
though they are backward in saying
what they have accomplished, yet
they, with other Industrial Agents. ?*
have done a great deal to assist in ^
making a record for the S. A. L that
has caused it to be known all over the
country as the most progressive rail- tj
road line in the way of development
and beautifying its territory. d
