The Hottentots are of various clans, scattered about, chiefly in the southern half of the colony. They are usually small and yellow skinned, and their wool grows in patches. Their language consists largely of clicks and gurgles and Is not pleasant to listen to. They are lazy, treacherous, thievish and untruthful. They work when they cannot help it, and when there is a chance of bunting, off they go, and leave their employer In the lurch. They will live where a white man would starve, and find water where he would die of thirst. Their cunning Is proverbial, and as trackers of game they rank high. They hare never been thoroughly thrashed and are not well disposed toward the Germans. The jure Bushmen are probably the lowest type of human being in the world. Queer little, undersized, nervously grinning blacks, they cannot be tamed, and now are approaching extinction. They live now, as they always did, widely scattered. Their language Is practically a succession of clicks, and as a rule their intellects cannot grasp any number higher than a five. Anything beyond that is great many. The Bushman has apparently no moral sense. He will live where even a Hottentot would starve, and as a hunter he is hard to beat He will follow a buck until it drops from exhaustion, and his poisoned arrows are things to be Avoided.
