The Odessa picnic, Wednesday, was a
big success, as everybody knew It would
be. The crowd was estimated at from
four to seven thousand people, In spite OF
the Intense heat. Every conveyance In
this city was used to take people to the
picnic. The speakers were Messrs'
Dockery, Cowherd, Walsh aud Jenkins
The latter Ia a colored democrat, who Is
Engaged in organizing negro democratic
clubs. The speeches were all excellent
and the only drawback to the complete
enjoyment Of the crowd was the unus-
uallv hot weather. The usual lunch
stands, lemonade stands and merry-go-
rounds were on the grounds and were
well patronized. The gambling schemes
were on hand, but feared to open up their
apparatus, One of the liverymen AZ
Odessa lost a horse from overdriving. A
man on the ground had his leg broken py

believed. at all ruffied by his sense
of onsibility-coolness always has
been one of his characteristics-bu
goes on from day to day signing for
transports and reinforcements and am
munition and mules with apparently as
little unconcern as if England started
a new war every day in the week. AS
for the other treasury employees, as
has been said, that portion of them de-
tailed TO keep tabs on the war office in
its wild career of expenditure are rather
pressed for time, but otherwise business
goes along in the treasury just about
as usual. which means in a thoroughly
dignified manner, unmarried by i'm
proper haste.
No Bother About Money.
When parliament was summoned to
an extraordinary session in the last
days of October its members were
made to understand that their bust
ness was to appropriate funds for war
which one Kruger had forced England
into waging. and they promptly made
those appropriations without waiting to
hear if the country could afford the
luxury of a war or not. If that unhesi-
tating action might be interpreted as a

fected by this tax-ail those whose in
comes are $500 or over-should pay their
share, and possibly a heavy share, OF
the war expenses, still he is con-
WINGED that to increase the nations re-
sources by an addition to this tax alone
would be emphatically unfair and in
equitable. 1t is likewise clear that in
the event of an increase in the subjects
of indirect taxation for so short a time
would simply defeat its own ends, for
the reason that the persons dealing III
the dutiable commodities would reduce
their purchases to the lowest point pos
sible-so that the customs receipts on
those subjects might fall short of what
they are at present. to say nothing of
netting an appreciate increase.
The Question of Payment.
Although the men who are looking
after the finances of the British nation
are very far from saying, in the manner
of the man in the gallery, What does
it matter?" they do not propose to be
over hasty in their anxiety to pay for
this war. Parliament has voted the
money--enough for the present, at any
rate-and the chancellor of the ex-
chequer has told where that money is
TO come from; about paying it back
again there is no hurry, and unless

at once, but win issue them only as oc-
casion demands. Considerable sums
have also been promised him by the
commissioners for the redemption of
the national debt--to be taken from the
resources in their hands belonging to
the savings bank deposits. Through
this course of action any disturbance of
the money market will be avoided.
No less than three other plans of
financial campaign have, however. sue>
gested themselves to the chancellor.
They were a possible suspension of the
payment of the national debt, the addi-
ton of a penny or of two-pence to the
income tax, and an increase in the
subjects of imports on which duty is
charged. What renders all three of
these suggestions impracticable is the
fact that seven months of the parlia-
mentary yeai,-which begins in April
already have passed. The suspension
of payment on the national debt for the
five remaining months would financiers
have advised the chancellor, be almost
barrent of results. AS for the income
tax. it has been made plain that while

not allow the neighboring natives to
arm themselves and get ready before
declaring war They have ways of find
ing out what a native chiefs intentions
are. sometimes before he has clearly
made up his own mind; in that case
they take the initiative. and when they
conquer a chief, in Zulu parlance, they
'eat him up" They destroy his villages
and crops. shoot down hundreds of his
warriors and carry off every last horned
beast he possesses. This leaves him as
poor as Lazarus. An African native
