For The Enterprise.
In a history Of Stockbridge. Mass, is
found the records Of the family Of
Judge Zebulon West, great grandfather
Of Charles Francis West Of Wellington
Stephen and jeremiah, the two sons Of
Zebulon, as well as their father, were
graduates OF Yale college. Jeremiah
was grandfather of G. +. West, whose
father was Francis West. His fathers
brother was Edmund West, who was a
merchant in Elyria, dying there about
1925, leaving son who is a retired law
yer, in Chicago.
G.. F. West was left fatherless when
young and lived with relatives in Ely
ria. Judge Ely's wife was his fathers
sister.
Mr.. West has a sermon in manuscript
preached by his ancestor, Rev. Stephen
West, in Stockbridge, Mass, July IS,
1897. 1t is in elegant chirography, and
numbered on the corner 1891. The pre-
ciousness of paper in that day is infer
red by the exceeding fineness OF the
text, and the elderly clergyman who
was nearing his sixteen hundredth ser
mon, must have had excellent eyesight
10 have been helped in his memory By
notes in such minute characters. The
severity of belief a hundred years ago
is evidenced by such exI ressions as
hell-deserying worms of the dust, "
THAT we are prepared to love him,
whether we apprehend he designs to
save or to damn, n,-required TO love him
whether he shows mercy or not" The
tenor of the discourse teaches the nee
essity Of entire submission Of our will
to one who is infinite in wisdom and
power, and to find our compensation in
that obedience.
Stephen West was the successor OF
President Edwards at Stockbridge, and
was an influential and interesting char
acter. He was descended from Francis
West. who came from Salisbury. Eng
land, to Duxbury in the very early days
of the colony. Cyrus West Field and
David Dudley Field were also related
to the West families. N. II. II.

A Game win BE Played In Wellington
Thanksgiving Day.
There will be game of indoor base
ball, Thanksgiving day, in the hall over
the Taylor store, beginning at 10 a. m
This is the first appearance of this pop
ular game in Wellington, and much in
terest is displayed in it. The game is
played exactly like the great national
game, except the ball used is seventeen
inches in circumference, and being in
fated does not hurt the player, even
though striking him squarely in the
face. The diamond is marked with
chalk on the floor. The room will be
heated and seats supplied for specta-
tors, who will be charged 10 cents to
defray the expenses of the game. Big
crowds witness these contests in Nor
walk and many other surrounding
towns, and Wellington should not be
behind. We have many good ball play
ers here during the winter, and good
game can be expected. The. teams will
be published next week. Those desir.
ng to play will notify H. M. Horr.

A Cave of Honey.

/ A natural cave of honey is the latest
addition to the riches of Colonel Moses
c. Wetmore, the millionaire ST. Louis
politician, whose immense tobacco in
terests were recently absorbed by the
trust.
This cavern of honey has just been
discovered on Colonel Wetmore's 1000
acre game preserve in the wilds of
fancy County, sixty miles south of this
city. 1t is a large cave hidden from
view in one of the most isolated spots
of the Ozark Mountain region The
bees have probably had undisputed pos
session of the cave for many years, for
it appears to be literally filled with hon.
ey, just like a hive in a well-kept
apiary. How far into the side of the
mountain this cave extends is an unset
tied question. The mouth of the cave
is about six feet in diameter and it
presents solid front of honeycomb.
If this cave is like the average Ozark
Mountain cavern it is all the way from
one to two miles in length, and if the
honey is built in solidly from end to
end there are tons of it. The bees may
have only woven web of honey at
the front, or they may have filled the
entire space. This is a question that
will soon be determined for Major Me-
Cam expects to employ experienced
beekeepers and have thorough ex-
ploratlon made.-Chicago Record.

Cubans take the same view. believing
that the military government is paving
the way for the eventual independence

restful noight, during which he slept
most of the time, Vice President Ho-

siderable interest in the election, but
the subject was not discussed in his

better this afternoon. He took a light
lunch at noon, and read a telegram of

ONLY UNDER FIRE OF GUNS.
Joubert Will Not Allow Women and
Children to Leave Ladysmith.

ESTCOURT (NataD, Monday, Nov.
6.-Mr. Burnard, proprietor of the rail-
way hotel at Ladysmith has arrived
here with a companion, having eluded
the Boer outposts by night, riding along
Kaffir paths. He confirms the report
that when General White requested
that the women and children be per
mitted to depart, General Joubert re-
piled that he would only allow them
to get away under the muzzles or fire
of his guns. Mr.. Burnard views the sit
uation gravely, and says that none of
the British artillery is apparently able
to cope with the Boer siege guns.

border towns. General Butler has taken
effective steps to- check the Boer adj

larization, but you may expect good
news SoOn.' y
DURHAM, Sunday evening, Nov. o.
Other information confirms the state
ment of native witnesses describing
the severity of the fighting on botn
Friday and Saturday at Ladysmith.
The natives assert that the Beers were
so cut up that they howled for mercy
on the field, and covered their bodies.
Ladysmith is crowded with Boer pris-
oners and wounded, the latter present
ing horrible evidence of the swordsman-
ship of the cavalry. The Gordon High
landers suffered severely in the fighting.

NEW YORK, Nov. S.-Brigadier Cen
eral Ludlow, Military Governor OF Ha-
vana, who arrived in New York har-
Dor yesterday on the steamer Havana.
and was detained at quarantine, said:
Il am glad to say that the feeling OF
Cubans toward Americans-whether
the military representatives OF the
Government or others-has greatly I'M
proved during recent months. The sus-
picion and distrust with which perhaps
large number regarded Americans
for SO long a time after the military
occupation was established has given
away in great measure to confidence
and cordiality. They are convinced
now, think, that our purposes are
honest and friendly, and limited to the
organization and development which
are essential precursors of the estab-
lishment of a stable native govern
ment
Along with this conviction now goes
perception of the fact that these pre-
liminaries are not to bemaccomplished
SO easily and soon as seemed to them
at first. In other words, they see
that our conception of the task in hand
influential and intelligent are now con-
tent to have US work out the mist of
that problem before entrusting the
conduct of affairs wholly to them. The
more we do the less there will be for
them to do, and the more auspiciously
will the republic start upon its career.
The necessity of doing our part of
the work thoroughly, so that there shall
be the smallest possible chance for a
failure of self-government, makes it
very difficult to say when the military
occupation ought to end. There must,
at any rate, 1 should say, be a COM
plete organization of civil government,
and an experimental operation of it
under some degree of military super
vision before the armed regime is ter
minated and the island handed over alb
solutely to its own people.
THE organization of a civil govern
ment is proceeding prosperously
throughout the cities and towns of the
island. In many it is perfected: in
others it is we'll under way; in the
rest it is either being undertaken, or
about to be. In Havana of course, we
have had for some months a complete
municipal organization and administra-
ton, but under military supremacy,
which, however, is exercised no more
than is deemed necessary.
Among the final preparations for the
full assumption of authority by the
Cubans will be the election of a Consti-
tutional Assembly. The date for that
election has not been fixed, nor have
the details which must attend it been
worked out either by our Government
or by the Cuban leaders themselves.
Hence l am unable to reply to ques-
lions touching the conditions under
which the election will be held. In re-
gard to the suggestion of an educatio
al test for the electors, difficulty
arises in the fact that so per cent Of
the population is illiterate 1t is evil
dent that if the new republic is to be a
popular Government there cannot be
much of educational requirements for
the exercise of suffrage. In short, par
ticulars relating to the constitutional
organization of Cuba still belong to
the future"
