BUILT BY A CANADIAN.
Ontario Lady Gives Six Thou- sand Rupees For a Leper Home In India.
News has just been received at the Baptist Foreign Mission Board offices at Toronto, that a leper home has been erected at Ramachandra, Puram, India, the cost of whic's has been refrayed by Mrs. Kellock, of Perth, Ont. Having had the needs .of the lepers brought to her atten-
‘tion, Mrs. Kellock decided to devote.

The establish- | ment will be known as the Dr. Kel- | lock Home for lepers. The donor’s |interest in the lepers was enlisted | by 2 letter to the Canadian press by | Miss S. J.

THE FRENCH PRESS.
’
| Paris, Dec. 4.—Kmperor Wil- | lam s telegram to Mr. Kruger re- | ‘using to receive him continues to | xe the chief subject of comment in | he French press. The afternoon supers strike a note of sadness. “hey sav they see in His Maiesty’s action the shattering of his reputa- (ion for chivalry. The Temps
says :
‘‘The Emperor’s wording that he -ould not receive Mr. ruger on .ccount of dispositions already
vaken is very clear. Everyone un- derstands that the Emperor, if not cctually fulfilling one of the clauses {the recent Anglo-German accord, 's inspired by the spirit thereof, in
}ieclining to receive Mr. Kruger. | Neither the declarations of ount Von Buelow or others
| Save concealed frona the eyes of the
world that the Emperor has veered nis policy in favor of England since
| he sent his famous despatch on the
|Jameson raid. The Emperor has failed to find in Europe the alliance
needed to brave Kugland, and his people have refused the credits to build a fleet. The consequence was the Emperor
threw in his lot with England. This is clear but incomprehensible. Mr. Kruger’s advisors neither saw nor foresaw anythimg, and exposed Mr. Kruger to the total check he has just experienced. This, perhaps, is not the first bad advice they gave him, and which explains many in the past.
THE GERMAN PRESS.
Berun, Dec. 4.—The govern- ment’s curt amd decisive intimation that Empéror William would not be able to receive Mr. Kruger has created’ a profound throughout Germany. What may be calied the anti-British section of the press does. not conceal its an- noyauce, and the moderate Anglo- phobe organs with difficulty repress the utterances of disappointment.
The inspired jourmals declare that it was Germany's desire to intimate definitely that Mr. Kruger’s visit would not be welcome; and there- fore, the fact that he omitted to comply with the strict etiquette of the German court and deferred asking Emperor William for an audience until he had reached the Helge-German frontier, was eagerly | seized as a reason for denying him’ | him such an audience.
The semi-official Cologne Gazette puts the matter as follows :
“The question as to whether Em- peror William weuld welcome Mr. Kruger’s visit must be answered without qualification in the nega- itive. Thereason why sucha visit just new cannot be welcomed is plain, for Mr. Kruger intends the requested audience net only as a mere act of politeness, but as an dccasion for receiving proofs of per- sonal sympathy. lurthermore, he is prosecuting at the same time outspoken aims, and desires te in- duce the rulers of those states which he has visited to abandon the strict neutrality they have hitherto found ) r inthe war be- tween Great Britain and the Trans- The
maintenance of strict
a serious political errorit a mere suspicion was created that, at Kru- gers wish, this neutrality would ne tonger be maintained.”’ |
Mr. Kruger’s reception at Cologne Was ¢xceeuingly enthusiastic so mo
‘ago and organized a society under)
' meeting
the name of Afton Hall Debating | Club and Literary Society. Mr. A. | S. McNeill was chosen president, A | D. McArthur vice-president, and} Brenton Currie secretary-treasurer. | After bye-laws had been submitted | and adopted, the old time-worn sub- | ject was chosen, viz ; ‘‘Which gairs} the more information, traveller or} reader?’ On the following night of ; this subject was ably! discussed and a vote was taken | which stood twenty-three to seven- | teen in favor of the traveller. The subject for next night is “which is} the better country to live in, Canada | or United States? The club; meets every Tuesday night at seven;
1 o'clock.

uelow, the imperial chancellor. and to the heads of the German states were left unanswered. - There is no doubt, that as late as Saturday. foreign office officials contemplated that Mr. Keuger would be receive in Berlin tomorrow. Kmperor Wil. liam and Count Von Buelow must have reconsidered the original plans. It is suggested that as Mr. Kruvar’s intention to come to Beitlin was mooted while in France, and Kaiser and his advisers may have suspected a trap.
Herr Von Tschirschky, German minister to Luxemburg, under Em- peror William's instructions, per- sonally thanked Mr. Kruger for. the telegram to the Kaiser, and Mr. Kruger, when thanking the envoy, said:
‘I invoke God’s blessing upon that .u rust personage.”
Viplomatists generally regard Mr. Kruger’s mission as frustrated, and cousider Germany’s action of great political importance, as denoting a new era inthe relations between Germany and Great Britain.
