Towards Peace-The. Better Class Of
People Anxious for Way of Honorable
6ettlement-Pointed Advice to Lord
Salisbury.
LONDON, Jan. THE American COM
missioner of the Daily Chronicle cabled
to that paper from Washington yester-
day as follows:
1.-The tide Of opinion here regarding
England seems to me to be distinctly
turning, owing, believe, both to the
Chronicles utterances and to Englands
anxious foreign crisis. Yesterday l
quoted sympathetic words from the
New York Sun. To-day the Tribune
says there is something magnificent in
the way the British themselves face
their international situation. The
Tribune speaks Of the everlast-
ing birthright Of the British
people in the memories of Agincourt,
Plassy and Trafalgar, and declares
that the present opportunity is equally
momentous and advantageous to both
countries. 1t adds that worthy di-
plomacy should now make easy the
way for an equitable and amicable set
tlement with Great Britain: Upon the
governments OF Washington and Vest
minister 1t rests to determine whether
this noblest opportunity Of the age
shall be neglected or shall be improved
to the perpetual profit and glory Of
both the great divisions of the En-
glish-speaking race
MANY similar utterances prove the
truth of my assertions that all the
best American opinion is earnestly de-
sirous Of friendly and dignified set
tlement. To-day l had conversation
on this subject with Senator Gray, Of
Delaware, an intimate and devoted
friend of Mr.. Cleveland, and promi-
nent member of the foreign relations
committee. Senator Gray said:
II don't think the president made or
intended to make threat towards the
British government in his message,
but he did mean to express in the
strongest way possible his own feeling
and what | believe to be the feeling of
all the people of this country regar d.
ing the supposed British refusal Of
arbitration in the Venezuelan matter,
except with reference to an arbitrary
line made by the British govern
ment itself. know there
is sincere regret and dismay
among all right-minded people
here that more conciliatory dispose
tion was not shown by Lord Sails
bury in regard to the general principle
of arbitration. If the British govern
ment should show kindly disposition
towards this principle l believe it
would be greatly welcomed by the peo-
pie Of this country. So far as there
being any loss of prestige to the Brit
ish government in this course, it would
make me more hopeful that the great
principle of arbitration will find ex.
preston in a convention between the
two countries covering all questions.
The New York Times also describes
my statement of the American case as
superior and entirely truthful.
The present moment is golden one
to secure American good will. Can
England afford to lose it. If Lord Sal
isbury takes no step and sees no way,
then let him reflect that his attitude
is identical with that fatal one which
lost Great Britain her American col
onies more than a century ago. The
American people are eagerly listening
for some word from him. The cost
of it would be slight and the gain CO.
lossal.

A Farmer Clearing More Than Fifty PEI
Acre.

Acre.
Hon. J. b. Wilson, of Yazoo City. is
one of the few farmers of Mississippi
who has contended that with proper
economy cotton could be protitably
grown at 5 cents per pound. He has
cited facts and figures OF his own ex-
perience to prove this, and has made
another big success this year. when ne
had several adverse circumstances to
deal with, such as rainy season. worms,
etc. He worked 300 acres of land with
eight mules this year. He made $1,000
worth of cotton on said land. The total
cost Of crop mot including land rent, as
the land was his own,) was $500.
Total froHt So, 200, which is nearly $500
to the mule and over $50 per acre.

is taught TO cook her husbands
meals from her early infancy.
She has to set the victuaH. for
him upon platters and watch him
devour them while she stands not
less than twenty feet away. What
he leaves she may eat but nothing
else. Her eyes may not close in
slumber until her husband sleeps,
and she must arise in time to wait
upon the br---benevolent gen
tleman. Her servitude is only
beginning when the husband
breathes his last lazy breath, for
then she becomes the slave to
anyone in his family community.
DR.. Ryder's announced lecture
on How not to be ill.," after the
interesting prelude just reported,
was highly appreciated by the fair
auditors. Many Of them gave
proof of their desire to hear more
from the gifted-lady physician by
buying tickets for the course.
This opening talk was free. The
doctor said the gospel she was
preached WAS one not preached Ivy
erybody. She would give as q
text the maxim, A womau's first
duty is 10 herself" When a
woman went out in the morning
tn. first greeting she got from n
friend was, "Oh, how do you doJ
Not iutrequeutiy the answer was
a tale of aches and pains which
made the uuestiomcr feel as i'll rs
the woman questioned. They
should learn that person who
cultivated a cheerful mind had
better physical health for it, and
besides spread wholesome at
mosphere about her wherever she
went. Many men were driven TO
drink because their wives made
their homes dyspeptic. We
should pay doctors for keeping us
well instead of curing us when i'll.
Some women consulted doctors
books at home, and forthwith i'm
Ggined they had all the diseases
they read about. Her advice was
to lend such books to persons in
the habit of not returning bor-
r0wed books.

"Put We or AZ Bun.io."

The title OF this wcllknown
song as well as the song itself
emanated from the brain OF an
employe of the Buffalo Brewing
Company. That entcrprising firm,
believing that man who could
compose SO catchy an air must
have Il large and we'll balanced
brain, straightway raised his gala-
ry. This has proven to be a good
move on their part as is testified
by the excellent qualities of their
beer, which is dispensed over the
bars of the Cosmopolitan, Pacific
and Royal saloons at the rate
of two glasses for 25c.; half
and half is also served at the
same price. 1t is always
fresh and cold and life sustaining.
Or you can get one glass of Buf-
falo and one Of Pabst beer, the
fine product of the Milwaukee
brewery. Exchangeable checks
good at all the above mentioned
resorts are given in change if you
only want one drink. "Best beer

OF many of our prominent citi-

The peculiar death of Miss Mary Frances

still remains unexp aimed, and doubtless never
will be solved How she came to her untime-
" end will probably never be known until the
day of judgment, when the secret of ali hearts
will he disclosed If she was murdered, there
yet is no proof of the murderer. The more thor
oughly it is investigated, the deeper the mys-
terry becomes. How a young woman just
budding into womanhood, apparently in the
best of health and spirits could suddenly be
stricken down by the grim destroyer seems TO
pass all comprehension. 1t she had been
foully dealt with, there certainly would have
been some marks of violence on her person
Even if poison or some opiate had been al
minstered her person would have indicated
it, but except for few small bruises on her
neck. which were trining, she was Otherwise
apparently uniniured.
