"You haven't It'll" echoed Miss Abb

'Me-I say had it,"
"Well, if you haven't it, who has?''

You said you were a kleptomaniac!"

Then Marguerite, flinging herself
into Mr.. Van Essen's arms, e1

ENGLAND WILL WIN.
Portugal Must Lease Delagoa Bay
Railway TO Raise Money.

London, October 3.-The de-
cision of the Swiss arbitrators in
the matter of the. Delagoa Bay
Railway has been prepared for
some little time and may be issued
any day, possibly tomorrow. 1t
is understood that the award to be
paid by Portugal to the McMurdo
concessionaires will certainly run
into the millions sterling, though
one expert estimate given today Of
five millions sterling probably is
an exaggeration.
Upon this award a great inter
national event hangs. Portugal
cannot herself fird the money.
She must sell something. DR..
Leyds' present mission to Europe
is largely concerned with the
Transvaal's desire herself to lend
Portugal the necessary funds in
return for the Delagos Bay Rail
way, Tor President hrueger real
ICES that therein is the key to the
South African position; but DIR.
Leyds' rebuff at Berlin last week
kills this project. England will,
as foreshadowed, herself provide
Portugal with the money in re-
turn for long lease of the rail-
way.
The original idea of joint
Anglo-German guarantee seems
to have been abandoned in favor
of solely British financial oper-
alton, Germany lending her moral
support. Other features of the
glo-German deal are not yet
ripe for public official announce
ment. Among other events they
await the Ksiser's talk with the
Sultan.

"Dr. Jennie Hillebrand, who is

"The improvement in the con.

readiness to receive and act on the
suggestions made by DIR. Hille-
