A "sHIPs THAT PASS, STORY.
George Eliofs Generous Response to
an Appeal for Help from an
American Woman in the Fnr
West. ls

In travelling recently 1 CHANGED upon a
typical Ships that pass" story, that
seemed to me too sweetly human and
sympathetic to be allowed to pass into
oblivion.
Living in a little western town several
years ago was tender souled mother
whose only son developed at an early age
beautiful voice and marked musical
ability. Through the influence and as
slStance OF friends, she was persuaded to
allow him to go to London for study,
where his voice and talent soon won for
him position among the choir boys in
one of the leading cathedrals.
In course of time, however, came
long interval during which the mother
heard nothing from her beloved son, and
in consequence became a prey to the most
'ieadly lear and anxiety. Knowing no
one in London to whom she could appeal,
ller mind instinctively turned in this soul
stress to the one great heart in England
That for years had stood to her for all
that was most noble, strong, fine, woman
~ and sweet So in a perfectly simple
way she wrote letter to George Eliot,
stating the details of the case and giving
The last known address of her sons lodg
ings, addressing the letter simply, Lon
don, England. This artlesS appeal did
not fail to reach it's destination, and
George Eliot lost no time in hunting up
the homeless youth, though she failed to
find him at the address given. She
traced MIN, however, from place 10 place,
until she came upon him i'll and forlorn
among entire strangers; and to him her
coming seemed indeed like the shadow of
a great rock in a weary land.
The humane and sympathetic woman
had the friendless boy taken Immediately
TO her own home at Chelsea, where he
was nursed and cared for until restored
to health. She of course wrote at once
to relieve the anxiety of his mother, and
provided ways and means for her to
come to England to visit her boy. But
by the time that the grateful mother had
made the long voyage, her sons noble
benefactor had gone to join the Choir
Invisible
The Lewessons, however, had become
so interested in the youth, and were so
pleased with the character OF the
mothers letters and her naive sweet
faith in the power and love of their
mother, that they continued to look after
The boy and extended to the unknown
American upon her arrival on foreign
shores every possible kindness and
courtesy, not the least of which was be-
slowing upon her in memory of the ex-
perence, a beautiful pearl pin that had
for many years adorned the foremost wo-
man of her time-if not of all times.

MATABELE CA1PFIRES.
Sixteen of Them Are Visible From
RuIuWayO.

LONDON, May "a dispatch from
Buluwayo dated May says that Fred
erick c. Selous. the African explorer,
accompanied by a column of troops dis
patched to meet the forces of Cecil
Rhodes with the force of Colonel
Plumber, who is at the head of $50
men on horseback or with wagons, is
expected to arrive soon.
Sixteen camp fires of the Matabeles
are visible from Buluwayo, but the
movements of the enemy remain an
absolute mystery. The question as to
whether or lot Cecil Rhodes is to re-
sign from the directorate of the Brit
ish Chartered South African company
is producing great excitement through
out this section. People here regard
him as necessary to the progress of
the company. They also think that the
chances that the company will be able
to make compensation for recent losses
will be imperiled in the event of his
resignation. A monster petition pray
ing for his retention will be presented
to the government

VOTE OF CONFIDENCE.
1t is Passed BY the Italian Chamber
of Deputies

ROME, May 9-The chamber of dep
uties today, by vote of 27S to 153,
passed a vote of confidence in the gov
ernment. The chamber afterwards
voted favorably upon the matter of
supplementary credits for Africa. The
Marquis di Rudini, the premier, in a
speech in the chamber today endorsed
the declaration Of General Ricotti, the
minister of war, and the Duke of Ser
nlonita, minister of foreign affairs He
stated that General Barateri must be
tried before a military tribunal He
deprecated the charges made in the
chamber against the Crispi cabinet as
being likely to prolong party strife He
said that the publication in the green
books relative to Africa had rendered
am inquiry unnecessary. The Italian
blood already shed. he urged, rendered
evacuation impossible. He asserted,
however, that he would not accept any
motion in favor of expansion of Italy's
sphere of action in Africa. He opposed
the occupation of Adigrat The Adowa
line, as a boundary, he regarded as in
evftably leading to a prolonged war. In
conclusion he explained that if the
Italian troops did not proceed beyond
the March and Beosa line, all cause for
conflict between Italy and the Abys-
sinian king, MeneIik, would be re-
moved

CAMDEN, N j., May 9.-As a re-
suit of the legislative investigation
which has been in progress in this city

ally. The city had for many years

the allegations of the state to the ex-
tent of permitting the muddled condi-
ton in the city treasurer's office.
