gagement will, it is believed, prove an
important factor in breaking the pres
identiai states prepared for 1900, Mrs
Hazen is known to possess almost lin
itless ambition, and it is predicted that
her influence will be of such potency
as to induce the admiral to enter pol
itics.
Many political experts, dwelling upon
the dramatic method of announcing the
approaching nuptials, declare it ex-
plains Admiral Dewey's refusal to ac-
company President Mckinley on his
western stumping tour, one, if not the
leading purpose of which, was to de-
feat John r. Mclean, brother Of Mrs.
Hazen, democratic candidate for gov
ernor in Ohio.
Moreover, it is intimated that the an
nouncement by Admiral Dewey, just at
this time, of the expected relationship
he is to bear to Mr.. Mclean, was made
in the hope of it's proving politically
beneficial to the Ohio candidate.
Admiral Dewey has long been on
terms of intimate friendship with the
Mclean family, and vet it is asserted
that the courtship of Mrs. Hazen has
been of recent date. During his earlier
stay on the Asiatlo station occasional
letters passed between the two. The
Manila victory brought to the admiral
an enthusiastic cablegram from Mrs
Hazen. Then began a regular cores
pondence with cablegrams and letters
exchanged at frequent intervals. From
every port touched by the Olympia in
its homeward bound voyage cable
grams were sent to Mrs. Hazen and
promptly answered by her. Thus the
courtship was largely carried on by
means of dots and dashes and by let
ter.

Washington, D. c., Nov. Admiral
DeWey's engagement to Mrs. Mildred
Hazen has been the absorbing topic OF
interest in this city today. Though
somewhat Sudden in it's announce
ment, it had not been unexpected by
persons intimately acquainted with
either of the principals. 1t had been
known in the social circles Of Wash
ington that Admiral Dewey always had
the highest regard for Mrs. HaZen.
Admiral Dewey first met Mrs. HaZen
years ago, when she visited Washing
ton as Miss Mildred Mclean, daughter
of the late Washington Mclean Of
Cincinnati, and they frequently met
afterward while she was the wife Of
the late Brig. Gen. Hazen. Admiral
Dewey, who has always been popular
in the society of the capital, was often
guest at the Hazens house, and, af-
ter the death og Gen. Hazen, it was
more than once rumored in society that
he might surrender to the winsome
face and gracious manner of the wild
ow.
The fact that Mrs. Hazen is a Cath
ole will require the marriage to be in
a Catholic church, unless there should
be a special dispensation from the
pope Admiral Dewey is nominally a
member of the Protestant Episcopal
church, but he has never emphasized
questions Of dogma or creed.
1t is thought by those who know him
most intimately that if only his per-
sonal interests are consulted the we'd
ding will occur soon, and with as little
ostentation as possible.
The coming wedding is about the sole
topic of conversation among politicians
of both parties today.
BY many shreWd observers this en-

AN EMPIRE BUILDER.

William T. Stead says that Cecil
Rhodes is the third greatest figure in
the British empire today, the only two
exceptions being the queen and Lord
Salisbury To the foreign observer, un-
biased by distinctions of rank, Mr..
Rhodes appears more worthy of first
place as an empire builder There is
a strong fascination about the career
of the sckly lad who was compelled
to break off his studies in Oxford to
fight consumption, who won health in
the pure air Of the veldts, fortune in
the mines Of Kimberley and by his
quickness to see his opportunity and
his logged tenacity in carrying out de-
signs won for England her last great

OUR SOLDIERS.

The war in South Africa, coming as
it does so soon after the close of our
own Spanish American conflict, leads
those who are inclined to compare the
fighting strength of nations to note the
good qualities displayed by our own
forces in recent years. An English
authority, commenting in this vein, is
forced to make the following declara-
ton, and in so doing does honor to our
bravery and the fighting qualities of
our soldiery: ut is pity that the
Americans and ourselves cannot ex-
change a few regiments of troops just
now. Their cavalry, trained on the
border to Indian fighting, and accus-
toned to individual responsibility, and
their cowboy rough riders would be
desirable troops against the Beers
while our native troops, used to hill and
jungle fighting, would clear out the
Filipinos infinitely more quickly and
with infinitely less loss of life than the
best white material can

AN EMPIRES SORROW.

The statement of the London Chroni-
Gle that the defeat near Ladysmith is
the wors; blow to the British empire
since the nder of Burgoyne at
Saratoga all too keenly how
Great Bril-, egards her most recent
reverse. Nothing but most serious
catastrophe would extract such an ad-
mission from an Englishman, who of
all races is credited with never know
ing when he is beaten.
The whole nation mourns over the
humiliation of being beaten by race
of farmers, by homespun warriors.
Yet the experience is not new to the
English army In nearly every one of
her big campaigns England has been
outgeneraled and surprised by some
supposedly inferior force and the self
confidence and conceit of Tommy At
lSins has worked his destruction.
Braddock had a fine contempt for the
North American Indian as compared
with the British regular. In the later
years the rude Yankee farmer, the pro-
totype of Yankee Doodle, was an OBJ
ject Of derision. But in fighting the
American colonists the British in the
end found they had not to do with
geographical difficulties alone, but were
distinctly outclassed in strategy and
military efficiency as well.
Gen. Sir George White undertook his
command with a distinct knowledge of
the characteristics of Boer warfare.
The lesson of Majuba Hill. in which
Gen. Sir George Colley lost his com
mand and his life, was fresh in the
memory of every officer of the queen.
White was on the lookout for traps,
pitfalls and strategems, yet he deliber-
ately allowed himself to be caught in
a larger trap and suffered a humilia-
ton compared to which Majuba Hill
was a skirmish. The South African
republic is a natural fortress Each
hill is a redoubt, each ravine a moat
which will be filled with bodies of hun
dreds before it may be crossed. Pre-
toria is defended by natures earth
works.
If the Beers do not win their indepen-
dence they will at least win the worlds
respect for their ability as fighters.
just at present the Beers appear to
have robbed Kiplings redoubtable
Fuzzy Wuzzy of the credit of being
England's most formidable foe. Fuzzy
broke the British square, but the Beers
annihilated it, and took the men that
formed it prisoners.
