CONTEMPT FOR UITLANDERs.
They are Roundly Denounced for Their De-
sertion Of DR.. Jameson.

dispatch from Capetown says that after
nightfall on the day of the battle between
DIR. Jameson and his followers and the Beers
the latter used search lights, themselves re-
naming under cover and relying upon their
sharpshooters TO pick of Jamesons men.
The Westminster Gazette has dispatch
from Capetown which says: "a general
feeling of nauseating contempt for the
Citlanders of johannesburg exists here. This
feeling is based upon their obvious cowardice
in sitting quietly down after Turing DIR.
Jameson into his blunder and offering him
no assistance whatever"
The Johannesburg Standard has cabled to
London, under the date of January 8, that
1000 Beers, with Maxim guns, surrounded
DIR. Jameson's men and that 100 OF the latter
were killed or wounded. After Jameson and
his men surrendered they were disarmed and
marched to Pretoria. A revulsion OF feeling
has set In at johannesburg, and the reform
leaders are roundly denounced for their de-
sertion OF DR.. Jameson. 1t was mob revo-
luton, In which the main population did not
join.
Sir Hercules Robinson, governor of the
Cape Colony, is now at Pretoria. Immedi-
ately after Great Britain offered assistance
to the Beers the stores were closed, trade be-
came stagnant and women and children be-
gan leaving for the coast In coal, cattle and
horse trucks and every kind of vehicle avail
able. The scene at the railway station was
indescribable. The town is perfectly orderly.
A dispatch from johannesburg dated jan
uary /, says that deputation sent to Pre-
toria had concluded a three days armistice
in order to permit the arrival OF Governor
Robinson, who was expected in Pretoria on
January 4. In the meantime the national
union Of Uitlanders control the town.
A proclamation issued by Governor Rob
inson hos been published warning British
subjects In the Transvaal against joining DR..
Jameson, who, the proclamation declares
has been guilty of armed violation of the ter
ritory of friendly State.

It cannot be said that the incessant jingo-

onstrations in England against the kaiser
have produced an equally warliko spirit in
Germany. On the contrary, conservative

this instance by the German newspapers and

Is called to this matter now because
II Is the most suitable time to get few

MASTERS to thinking.
Persons who have not been on tours

1t amounts to many millions of dol
lars annually in the state of New York
alone. Probably one-half of the dairy
men would plead guilty to this indict-
inent. But there are many honorable
exceptions. Some keep their manure

to the field and spread. This is the
most sensible way. When the coun-
try was new the soil filled with
sweet native grasses and the butter
made had n delicious favor. BY the
lux system of dairying the soil gradual
ly became depleted of fertility, the
tame grasses slowly went out and
weeds and coarse grasses came in. The
butter made now is not of as good quail
~ as formerly. A few of the best
dairymen, observing whence they were
drifting by this system of depletion,
changed their methods, fed more grain,
especially cottonseed meal, carefully
husbanded and applied all the solid
manure made, and now the tame
grasses are driving out the weeds and
other wild growth. This is farming on
right lines. 1t must be understood
that most dairy lands are not tillable.
The dairymen might go further now
and utilize the liquid manure, which
is almost wholly neglected. Galen vii.

Unto the portal of the day there came
A shining presence fashioned out Of flame.
And from that purple threshold Of the
world
Arrows OF fire across the shadows hurled
Into the forest. over plain and sea
The darts In silence sped unerringly,
Lances Of sunshine from the morning
bow
Until the armament was all aglow.
Then from the zenith suddenly heard
The dew-fresh notes or some enraptured
bird,
Lost in the golden labyrinth of light,
Singing the dreams of the departed night.

A face that haunts me through the day.

And stretches out his hands to me.

I'm not. but should like to be.
I'm not the only man who goes
Along that street and glances in,
But I'm the only one he shows

His winning ways a seed have sown.
