At the time of his retirement to
Mount Vernon, after the expiration Of
his term as President, 1.-The tall figure
of Washington was only slightly bent,
and he was still supposed to weigh up
ward of two hundred pounds writes
William Perrine, in the Ladies' Home
Journal" Excepting his gray hair and
his false teeth, and some trouble in
hearing, there was little of the usual
appearance of age in his muscular per-
son, his gait and his strong, pock-
marked face. He was affable and merry
with his best friends, but while he had
the true hospitality of a Southern gen.
tleman in inviting every visitor from
a distance to his table or to a bed over
night, his politeness was generally for
NAL. Yet if he particularly enjoyed the
conversation of a guest he would pay
him the compliment of listening to him
until after 8 o'clock, or even of lighting
him with the candle to a bedroom for
the night. Mrs. Washington at this
time was healthy, pleasant and unos-
tentatious little woman, still showing
traces Of good looks and with seldom

LOSS IN THE AFRICAN WAR.

That great battle on the Modder
River, which was described as the
"bloodiest Of the century," turns out
to have resulted in seventy-six killed.
Yet we are told that it has sent, con-
sternation to the heart of the English
people, and that even the theaters of
London are being deserted, because the
people in the presence Of such awful
in entertainment.
That Is humane expression doing
them credit, but surely the British
cannot have SO suddenly come to re-
gard such losses as reported as de-
plorable beyond all others. Have they
forgotten the Crimean war? Have they
grown to regard war as so trivial that
the loss of less than a hundred men
killed is paralyzing? ~
We do not credit the telegraphed
stories about all this fright and woe.
The British are surprised, no doubt.
But they are a fighting people. They
have had vast experience in war. They
have put enormous armies into the field
of conflict these centuries past, and
have seen them moved down and the
dead on the plains lie thick as autumn
leaves. They have met such disasters
as the sinking of ship after ship OF
their fleets, carrying down entire crews
of hundreds of fighting blue jackets
who went to watery graves before the
shot and shell of the foe.
They are now neither panic-stricken
nor paralyzed with fear or woe on
the contrary, the losses thus far sus-
tanned in South Africa have fired the
fighting spirit, and while the English
shed tears for the fallen few, they are
arming legions to avenge their deaths.
The sensational press reporters, who
are young and new brood of writer's.
are making the most of their oppor-
tunity to deliver themselves of sophie
moric lines and horrifying passes about
appalling loss of life"
There has been no such fearful loss
AS modern war goes, the dead in the
present conflict have been very few,
less by far than was to have been
anticipated. Before the conflict is over
England will record the deaths of her
soldiery by the thousand, and then the
time for real, widespread mourning will
have been reached. All there is to it at
present is that the young sensational
early in the conflict What they will
do for adjectives and burning words
later on must be left to conjecture.

Methods Of Making Beef Tea.

The first Of the methods here given
makes surrey a genuine extract OF peei'
containing all the Strengthening prop
critics and the full nourishment OF the
meat. If the stomach OF the invano
is quite weak this extract is not given
in it's full strength, but it is diluted
with hot water until it is OF the strenth
desired by the physician. In making
this tea or extract always select the
juiciest part of the beef quite without
regard to it's tenderness. Indeed, the
tenderer the meat is the less juicy II
will be found The lower part OF the
round is usually found to be the pest
for beef tea. 1t must be absolutely
free from fat, only the lean meat being
available Cut the beef into quarter
inch dice-shaped pieces. and put them
into a wide-mouthed bottle and SET it
on a stand of some kind in kettle OF
cold water, This is to rinse the jar
and let the water under it, so that the
glass will not be on the hot bottom
of the kettle. as it would almost to a
certainty break unless it was thus pro-
tected Set the kettle over the hre ana
heat it gradually. When it comes TO
a boil keep it gently simmering Tor
several hours, until the meat is per-
fectly white, looking like pieces of In
dia rubber all the juice being ex-
tracted. Then strain out the juice, press
it all out from the pieces of meat, and
season to the taste with salt. To make
the tea more quickly cut one half
pound of the juicy round freed from
all fat into small pieces, season with
a tablespoonful of salt, press it with
a wooden masher, and let 1t
stand in a covered bowl for half an
hour. Pour off the juice, and heat, but
do not boil it. Serve it Immediately
without straining. The salt will draw
out only portion of the juice from
the meat, so a beef tea may be made
from the meat after the Juice has been
poured off the first time by adding one
cupful of cold water to it and letting
it stand for couple of hours, then
strain off the water, pressing the meat
to get out all the juice, heat it, and you
will have a very palatable cup of tea
little less strong than the first, but
good Notwithstanding. = Sallie Joy

From The New York Herald.
Charles Devine got verdict in the
supreme court, Brooklyn. yesterday for
$4,000 against the Brooklyn City Rail-
road company. As a result of an ac
cident, Devine's backbone was shorten-
ed one and a quarter inches In 1898
a jury before whom the suit was tried
gave him a verdict for $4,000. On a
technicalty the appellate division
granted a new trial at the request of
the company. The second trial. before
Judge Gaynor and a jury, closed yes
terday afternoon.
Devine, who is SO years old. is a hat
maker He was driving in a light wag-
on in Third avenue, Brooklyn, on the
night OF Dec 10, 1896. His son. II years
old, was on the seat beside him, and
there We're several bags of oats in the
body of the wagon. 1t had been snow
ing, and the snow was heaped on each
side of the tracks. For that reason De-
vine was using the middle of the street.
He had turned out several times to al
low trolley cars to pass, and was be-
tween Seventy seventh and Seventy
eighth streets. when his boy looked
around and saw trolley car approach
ing very rapidly, and said: Father
there's a car right behind" DeVine
says no bell was sounded by the mo-
torman.
when I looked around he said, Il
saw that there was no chance to es-
cape. The car was coming very fast
and was close upon us. I pushed the
boy back among the bags of oats and
told him to hold on tight. Then the
car struck us and / was thrown out !"
Devne struck on his back with such
force that the coccyX, or lower extrem-
ity of the spine, was fractured. The
spinal cord was injured further up, and
the shock ruptured several internal or
gans. He was taken in an ambulance
to his home, and after several days an
inch and quarter of his spine was re-
moved.

TIOIll lllt DOSlbIl blODe.
And in this connection, said Chief
Justice Peters of Maine, I will state
my own experience. ] have been on the
bench continuously for % years last
May, and my salary, at first $4,000, and
since 1887 $500. has never for a single
year paid my years expenses, or any,
where near it. The nearest it has ever
come to making the two ends meet vas
in 1874, the year next after my APP
pointment, when my expenses of sup
port were $4.4l6. And this sum did not
include house rent q own my Cwn
house,, but did include house repairs,
nor did it include taxes, nor expense of
board and travel when at court away
from home, nor money paid for law
books, nor gifts to friends and reia-
tives, excepting small current chari-
ties. The next nearest to this was IN
1880, when my living expenses making
the same exclusions of deductions Is
before stated. were s4,759.
The disparity in all the other years
of my occupancy of seat on the bench
between receipts and expenses We're
greater than in the instance named.
And while it may not be worth while
to expose the facts in detail, l will say
in general terms that for the period Of
more than quarter of a century dur
ing which have been a member of Zoe
court. and wholly in the service of the
state, my ordinary living expenses, not
including any of those items enumerat ted
above, exceed all the amount of salary
received by me from the state by more
than the sum of 1000. And still l am
not aware that I am regarded by my
friends and neighbors as living at all
eXtraVagantly.
