We do not wear masks In our
homes though we may do else
where. Neither beauty nor de-
formity is hidden there. The gra-
cious smile and pleasant speech,
which are not the spontaneous
expression of a kindly nature are
dropped when a person is among
bis kith and kin. There is no
striving after effect, and he ex-
presses in words and deeds his
real self. In the home, the sell
fish are selfish, the good are
good. There are many gay plu-
mayed birds of society who are
nothing but black crows in the
home, and on the other hand,
many who appear to little advan-
tage in the world are clothed
with the sweetness and goodness
of an angel when they are at their
own fireside. Many things arise
to test and reveal character.
Home life makes demands on
patience, sacrifice and consider
ateness. 1t Is easy for atoms
to spring up; self-will can create
strife which only gentleness can
allay. The art of conciliatlng has
wide scope in home life, and good
humor is an angel of harmony

The natives of a certain coun-

they have not solved the problem
as to how to silence the SANDER
Gus tongue, have at least devised
an appropriate punishment for
the slanderer. The person who
IS found guilty of slanderlng
another is punished in the follow
ing manner: He is made to march
through the town, with bell
tied to his neck, calling out that
what he said was a lie. He is
afterward compelled to go into
all the compounds, and tell what
he has done at every door.

THE MASTER OF LIFE

By Paul Laurence Dunbar
October is the treasurer of the year.
And all the morths pay bounty to her
store;
The fields and orchards still their tribute
bear,
And fill her Drumming Golfers more and
more.
But she, with youthful lavishness,
Spends all her wealth in gaudy dress,
And decks herself in garments bold,
OF scarlet, purple, red and gold.
She heedeth not how swift the hours fly,
But smiles and sings her happy life along;
She only sees above a shining sky;
She only hears the breezes' voice in song.
Her garments traf the woodlands through,
And gather pearls of early dew
That sparkle till the roguish sun
Creeps up and steals them every one.
But what cares she that jewels should be
lost,
When all of natures bounteous wealth Is
hers?
Though princely fortunes may have been
their cost.
Not one regret her calm demeanor stirs;
whoIe-hearted. happy. careless. free.
She lives her life out joyously,
Nor cares when Frost stalks DER her way
~And turns her auburn locks to gray,

MIR. vANDERBILT,s MINISTER

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
A special bequest of $4,000 to the Rev.
DR.. David H. Greer is an indication of the
esteem in which Mr.. Vanderbilt held the
rector of st. Bartholomew church. 1t
was the chance caused by some unforeseen
delay or accident, compelling Mr. Wander
bilt to spend Sunday in Providence, which
brought him to the church of which DR..
Greer was then rector, and that led to an
invitation seen after, suggested by Mr..
Vanderbilt, that DR.. Greer become rector of
st. Bartholomew church. That was Mr..
Vanderbilts church home. He often spoke
of it as something whose associations and
privileges were cherished next to those of
his family and home.
DR.. Greer has been, in almost all of Mr..
Vandcrbilts religious benefactions, his al
moner and adviser, and upon him rested
the responsibility for that great philan-
thropy that is established upon the East
Side through the benefactions of Mr.. Van
derbilt and his mother, representing in
money expenditure nearly 900 and in
results marvellous transformation of what
was once one of the wickedest regions in
New York to district suggesting sobriety,
comfort, and all the virtues that make good
citizens.

GovERNMEsr THEoRITE MILL

Washington Correspondence of the Chicago
Tribune.
Secretary Root has determined to manu-
faeture the new explosive, theorite, at
Sandy Hook instead of in the Philippines,
as contemplated some time ago. The ordi-
nance department is convinced that this
powerful explosive has passed beyond the
experimental stage, and it is valuable be-
cause 1T combines the elements of safety
in handling and destructiyeness to any
enemy. 1t has been shown that theorite
cannot be ignited by fire and 1t will not
explode when a lighted cigar or a redhot
iron is applied to it. The conclusion from
a discharge of heavy ordance has no eff
feet upon 1T, and ordnance experts are con-
WINGED that there is absolutely no danger
in loading the gun with theorite, while gun
cotton and OTHER explosives are handled
with great risk. Some difficulty was ex-
perienced in finding a time-piece which
would set off the theorte at the proper
time, but this has been overcome. Prepara-
tions are being made to enlarge the plant
at Sandy Hook, and in a short time the
manufacture of this explosive will begin.

Sir Redvers Buffers Campaign.

Six thousand troops have already reached
$4,000 more will be due at that port. When
these men are on the spot the new CAM
paign of General Butler will begin to take
form. All circles of information are now
concerned as to it. Not particle of gen.
uine information has come to the people,
who are confined to speculations and
probabilities.
The better surmises seem to relate to a
campaign that has Lorenzo Marques as a
base. Lorenzo Marques is the port, rail-
road terminal and capital of the Portuguese
territory that lies between the Transvaal
and the sea. line of rails runs directly
from it to Pretoria and johannesburg. Pre-
toria is 300 miles from Delagoa bay and
Lorenzo Marques. Some understanding has
been, 1T is believed, reached between Great
Britain and Portugal under which England
will be permitted to use the port and rail-
road for military purposes. The cable and
telegraph lines have already been monopo-
ilzSu ny IplitlSu lney are
closed to the public, and this fact alone
leads people to think that the port and
railroad win go the same way. The Portu-
guese line is the shortest enc to the Trans
vaal capital, and probably the most FEAST
bic one in other respects.
As soon as General Butler begins to move
in force from Lorenzo Marques, General
Joubert will either have to take Ladysmith
by direct assault at a great sacrifice of
men, or else he will have to return quickly
to Pretoria in order to save it from cap
ture. Its fall would be the fall of the en-
tire country. Its fall might lead to desul-
tory warfare, but the heavy fighting would
be ended. If General Joubert should be
thus compelled to return to Pretoria, Gem
eral Whites army of 900 men would be
added to the aggressive force, thus expe-
diting the Inevitable downfall of the Beers,
and confountling the enemies and critics of
England in France and Germany.
Some of the talent think General Butler
will start three columns, each about 20, 900
strong, simultaneously from the Capetown
railroad. from Port Elizabeth, and from
New London, another railroad terminal on

addressed an audience of Lee county DEM
ocrats al the court house here last Satur-
day, and the News commends the sound
democracy of Mr.. Tomlinson's platform, as
avowed in his speech. There was no dodg-
ing, no trimming, no hesitation and no
room left for speculation as to where Mr.
Tonlinson stands on the questions that will
be to the fore in the coming contest. He
believes in reaffrming the financial decla-
rations of the Chicago platform, and that
William j. Bryan should be renomnated.
He believes in a positive and aggressive
warfare on trusts and monopolies. He is
exactly in line with the party in opposing
Imperialism and expansion.
The determined fight he is wagiag against
the school book trust should meet the APP
probation of every citizen of Alabama
There may be other candidates for the
high office of governor who hold the same
views on these questions, and who are
ready to express them as positively as MI
Tomlinson. When they do SO the News Will
give them due credit, and say for them, as
If does now for Mr.. Tomlinson, here is a
democrat in every way worthy of your
consideration when you are ready to choose
a governor.

the east coast, about hundred miles north
of Port Elizabeth. These columns would
all perhaps be concentrated in the neighbour
hood Of Pretoria. The better opinion seems
to favor single irresistible column from
Delagoa bay, but General Butler certainly
did entertain the three column plan.
General Joubert is absorbed by the desire
to bag General White at Ladysmith before
he must get ready to defend his own capt.
tai. The clouds are gathering very thielxly
about him. General White is provisioned
against a two months siege, and a direct
assault would involve the possible loss of
10000 men-the flower of the Transvaal
army. Such a loss would be fatal to the
Af9ikanders and their desperate cause.

Spheres of Influence IN China.

The south is deeply interested in main
tanning an open door" policy in China;
for This section of the country expects to
find there's finding there-a great market
for cotton goods and iron and steel. Great
Britain and Japan also desire an "open
door, and Germany has no reason to fear
such a policy. What the United States,
Japan, Great Britain and Germany want in
China could not be successfully refused by
Russia and France, the two Chinese-wall
countries in commercial affairs
The best and only solid hope for an open
door in China consists in an union of the
-four countries against Russia and France.
Ley Should act unitedly, and If this adj
ministration has net sense enough to see
the situation as it exists then we should
elect one that will. The more doubtful
point relates to the action of Germany, but
that country is very far-sighted in trade
matters, and it is believed she will join
the United States, Great Britain and Japan
in demanding an open door policy in China.
The four countries need not ask any IA
vcrs. All they need is a chance to do bust
ness without being Handicapped by vexa-
tious restrictions and railroad obstacles
When they attempt to open up the vast
markets of interior China. Fair play and
no discrimina lions, is all they want. Ger
man trade is prospecting elsewhere under
like conditions, and the Germans would
gain from an open-door policy in China
their share of her trade So would the
other three countries in the sugges led COM
blne No doubt all four should resist actual
partition of the country, for that would
involve political control, and political con-
troll inevitably would lead to trade dscrlm-
nations.
1t is said the administration is moving in
the matter. 1t is further given out that the
negotiations towards an open door are pro-
crossing favorably. Thus far neither Rus
STA nor France has shown any disposition
to close even their acquisitions ON the coast
against fair trade. Nor has Germany. The
impression is gaining ground that the par
tition business has been stayed, and that
mutual jealousies and clashing interests
will save China from complete disruption
but domination at Pekin would be nearly
as hurtful, and this government should
make The fact plain that it will be found
ever on the side of an open door that is
never even partially closed or blocked.
This country does not desire Chinese ter
rtory, but 1t does desire in China a full,
even chance for the extension of trade, and
It should not accept less. The party that
Goes accept less will be condemned as soon
as the people have an opportunity to ex-
press their sentiments

THE FAIR SEX

From the Atchison Globe.
The woman's idea of a poor Christian is
one who keeps on her kid gloves at a
church social and bosses the rest.
When a girl walks home swinging her
parasol in a reckless sort of way, it is
sign that she lacks nickel with Which to
pay her street car fare.
A girl visiting Atchison has four party
dresses in her trunk, and her hostess is
locking scared to death.
1t pays to be patient. When Fanny Sol
ONION was a baby she was ugly that her
mother threatened to throw her away.
Now she is one of the prettiest girls in
town.
To a girl that has never been in love but
orce, love is a very serious matter, but
after a girl has been in love six or seven
times she pays about the same attention
to it that she does to Christmas.
1t can usually be said of every daughter
Of sixteen years that she runs the house.
Many q woman who becomes indignant
when called tough, CLOVIS when called a
bohemian. r
Women have the most to wear, but men
have the most to eat. ~ q
One of the incomprehensible things to a
man is that when woman offends her
husband she asks the Lord to forgive her,
and then feels all right about 1T.
An Atchison woman offended her nus
band and half her friends, spent $25 and
gave a party. Result: Those not invited
abused her, and those who were there had
headaches next day. She didn't please any
one except the caterer, and he Thought her
order was "stingy one."
An Atchison man, to get even, has taken
to selling his wife's old clothes He says
every time he puts off a summer suit to
put on a winter suit his wife sells his
clothes to a secondhand dealer and he pro-
poses to sell his wffe's party dresses to get
even.

HIS OPINION OF SHAKESPEARE

There is a story going about town just
now concerning a famous man of letters
who visited Washington recently. He ap-
peared at but one dinner party. There he
sat next the young daughter of noted
naval officer. Her vocabulary is Of kind
peculiar to very young girls, but she rat
tied away at the famous man without a
moments respite. 1t was during pause in
the general conversation that she said to
him:
Pm awfully stuck on Shakespeare Don't
you think hes awfully interesting?
Everybody listened to hear the great
mans brilliant reply, fer as Shakespear-
ian scholar he has few peers.

is interesting l think he is more than
