VIII the British Ministry BE Recon-
structed?

The almost unanimous censure cast by
the London press on the management OF
the war In South Africa has given rise to
rumors that some changes in the British
Government may be shortly made. We
might give some credence to these rumors
but for the fact that the Salisbury Govern
ment has In the House OF Commons q ma
jority so large and hitherto 30 tractable
that 1t might seem able to defy criticism.
II. however. during the weeks that must
elapse before the achievements now or
dered and tho new commanders, Lord Rob-
IHTs and Lord KITCHENER, can arrive at
the Cape, fresh revcrses should be encoun-
tored. 1t may be deemed the part OF pru-
denoe to defer to public opinion before the
reassembling Of Parliament. which is not
distant. The fate Of the Aberdeen Ministry
In 1855 suggests that timely reconstruc-
ton Ia better than defeat.
The Crlmean War was the last contest in
which Englishmen were pitted against
representatives Of the Caucasian race. 1t
began in 1863. not long after Lord ABER-
DRKS had become Pre- mier at the head OF
coalition Cabinet composed partly OF Wings
and partly Of Peelites. In September,
1854, British army under Lord RAGLAN
landed near Eupatorla. During the ensu-
ing winter it suffered appalling hardships
and privations, due, unquestionably, to the
Incompetence OF various departments at
homo. and, especially, to the gross mis-
management OF tho commissariat The
original belief that the allied forces had
but to land in the Crlmea to effect
the capture OF Sebastopol had been
succeeded by an apprehension OF dis
aster and by a growing dissatisfac-
ton with the Government, which latter
feeling, however. might have been allayed
had tho Premier and his principal coad-
tutor. Lord JOHN RUSSELL, consented to a
change in the administration OF the War
Office. No such change was made, how
ever, and, at length. the discomfort found
emphatic expression In the House Of Com
mons, when motion OF inquiry into tho
conduct OF the war, submitted by Mr.. ROE
BUCK. was carried by an overwhelming
majority. A great many loyal Ministe-
rlalists had voted for the motion, and Lord
PALMERsToN, who was then Home Score
tary, wanted the Government to accent tho
Inquiry and abide by its results. Lord
ABERDEEN preferred to treat tho motion
AZ one Of no-confdence, and resigned.
whereupon, in February, 1855, he was sue
ceeded by Lord PALMERsToN. Athorough
purgation and invIgoration OF the War
onice Instantly took place. and, eight
months later, Ssbastopol was taken.
We do not believe that Lord SALISBURY
viii repeat Lord ABERpERNs mistake.
Should events go from bad to worse before
the meeting OF Parliament. a great many
discontented Unionists might vote with the
opposition for resolution of inquiry

Sc. Louis, NO., Dec. 2s.-The tram
script Of case appealed TO the
United States court of appeals from
the Indian Territory has been filed
here. The style OF the case In the
Atoka Coal Mining company, plain
tiffs in error, VS.. w. w. Adams, ct
al, defendants in error. The latter,
the plaintiffs in the original suit, are
all residents OF th > On )ctaw nation.
Prior TO June Is, 1898, when the Cur
tis act became operative, they dis
covered coal on some property.
They claimed the land and subse
ouentIy leased it to the Eiuing COM
pany, under a contract which bound
the company to pay the claimants
one fourth Of ! per cent royalty on
every bushel of coal mined. Un-
der the laws as they stood then,
their arrangement, 1t 10 said, was
legal.
The Curtis act stipulates that the
royalties on coal taken from the lands
leased by residents of the nation,
were not to be paid to individuals,
but to the nations treasury, to be
disbursed for the common good. The
suit was brought TO determine wheth-
or or not the Curtis act was retro
spective in it's workings. Originally,
the plaintiffs, eleven in number, sued
for s4464, claimed to be due them as
royalties. There was no dispute as
to the amount, the coal company ad-
mitting an obligation OF that amount.
The money had even been deposited
in the Merchants National Bank of
of Fort Smith, Ark. But the compa-
ny did not wish TO pay the money to
the claimants as individuals, and
then be compelled to pay the Choe-
taw nation, SO t refused to honor
the claim of Adams and his associ-
ates. In the lower court the plain
tjffs were given the verdict, the
Judge holding that the Curtis act was
not retrospective. The appeal was
taken by the coal company.

Women who Wear w.lI.

1T is astonishing how great a
change a few years of married life
will NJ axe in the appearance and dis
position of many women. The fresh
ness, the charm, the brilliance van
ish like the bloom from a peach
which is rudely handled. The mat
ron is only dim shadow, faint
echo of the charming maiden. There
are two reasons for this change,
ignorance and neglect. Few young
women appreciate the shock to the
system through the change which
comes with marriage. Many neg
lect to deal with the unpleasant
drains which are often consequent
on marriage and motherhood, not
understanding that this secret drain
is robbing the cheek of it's freshness
