script from the provinces. Did it not
exist, however, his comrade from the

day a fiery adjutant questioned
Jacques, the provincial:

Teated Her

Charley NJ. was at home from college,
| spending his summer vacation. The
Ms were people fairly well to do, and
| Charley was passing the forenoon very
| comfortably On the cool and shady
veranda.
Down by the barn yard fence, in a
neglected place, a crop Of strong,
healthy weeds had sprung up and
f1Ourished under the summe sun. Left
unmolested in the rush of work on the
farm, they were fast becoming a blot
on the otherwise orderly premises, and
that morning Charley's father-the
'old man"-had sailed forth and was
now making Il vigorous assault upon
the patch.
Suddenly be left off his work and
came up into the yard. Taking a
broomstick which happened to be lean
ing against the ve-anda. he laid it on
the grass. then turned to Charley and
said:
"Git down here and see if you can
pull me over that stick"
He held in his hand a small chain, in
each end Of which was inserted a stout
stick to serve as a handle. Then the
tug began and developed into Glite a
spirited contest. But ut last Charley
succeeded in dragging the old man
across the line.
'There, that'll do" he said, dropping
his end Of the chain. Il guess you've
got strength enough to pull them
weeds down there by the barn"
II never said a word" said Charley,
telling the story a%fte-ward. but before
noon there weren't any weeds left
standing."-Youth's Companion.

LONDON, Oct. 16. General Sir Red
vers Butler, who will have the chief
command in South Africa, accompanied
by his staff, left Waterloo station fol
Southampton to go on board the Dun
otter Castle. His departure was the
occasion for another patriotic demon
stration. General Butler arrived at the
station at 1:45 y. IN. With great diff
entity his carriage pushed its way
through the great crowds that blocked
every approach. The people swarmed
everywhere and gave the station the
appearance of a veritable beehive.
Constant and deafening cheers marked
the approach Of the royal carriages con.
tainlng the Prince of Wales and the
Duke CT Cambridge, and when Sir
Redvers Butler allghted and appeared
in the doorway Of the station to receive
the prince and his former commander
in-chief. enthusiasm knew no bounds.
The immense waiting room was con-
verified into a reception room. where the
secretary Of state for war, Lord Lans-
downe, Lord Wolsely, George Wynd-
ham, parliamentary under secretary OF
state for war, General Sir Evelyn
Wood, Colonel Lord Paul Methues and
a host of other celebrities were gathered
to bid farewell to General Butler. The
Prince Of Wales and Duke Of Cam

Meanwhile the people filled every avail

The admiralty has been cautioned
against allowing ship owners who are

The Sun publishes an incredible story
to the effect that the Beers have offered
$1,000 for the capture Of Cecil Rhodes,
dead or alive.
Captain Nesbitt, who was killed at
Kraaipan, belonged to the Mashonaland
police. He served in the Matabele war.
during which a daring exploit brought
him the Victoria cross. With thirteen
men he fought his way through the
Matabeles, relieved a beleagured party
and escorted them to Salisbury. Three
Of the party were killed and five
wounded, all the horses being killed or
