Foretold His Death.—Almost exactly a year ago, Mr H. B. Kruger, a 42-year-old Bloemfontein electrician, was given up for after he had accidentally touched a live wire. Quick thinking on the part of an African servant who dragged him off the wire enabled helpers to revive Mr Kruger. He then said: “If I get another shock it- will be the last one.” Mr Kruger made his own prophecy come true when he accidentally touched a live wire and was killed.—Bloemfontein.
