is reminded Of that eternal rest prom
ised him when the tolls Of life are
ended. The nation will soon forget
its God after it has forgotten His
Sabbath. When we labor six days in
the week we want good spiritual
meal on the Sabbath if we can get it,
and we find therein blessed compcn-

tians begin to live up to the gospel

Of the world to begin to fall in line
also.

us to love, serve and honor Him who

a Hypocrite Steer.

One Of the sights of the great cat
tie yards of Chicago is an old white OK
named Judas.
He came to the yards good many
years ago. while he was yet frisky
steer, and he was immediately pur-
| chased by one Of the great packing
houses, and driven from the train
which brought him from his Iowa
home to distant yard.
The life of most animals at the cat
tie yards is very short-a week at the
very most. A few days after the ar
rival Of Judas the herd of cattle
which occupied the pen with him was
selected for killing.
The way to the packing house led
down long alleyway, with nigh
fences cn each side, then up q narrow
chute and into the building.
For some reason the cattle seem to
know what is coming, for they always
object to be driven up the chute.
Judas was no exception. He plunged
madly about among the herd and the
cattlemen had more trouble with him
than with any other animal.
At last, however, he seemed to
realize that sooner or later he must go
and he made virtue of necessity,
trotted quietly up the chute, and the
other cattle followed rapidly after
him. Thus he ran until he had just
reached the door Of the packing house.
Then, quick as wink, he turned and
galloped down side passage and es-
capped, while the other cattle went on
ward into the building.
Judas had been SO ve5y clever that
the good-natured cattlemen let him go
for that day, for genius is to be appre-
ciated in steer as we'll as in man.
The next day, however, they drove
him up again with another herd.
This time he made not the slightest
objection, but trotted forward quietly
and the other steers, having conf
dent leader, behaved admirably. But
just as Judas reached the door Of the
building he lodged again, 80 suddenly
that the men couldn't turn him, and
escaped as he had done before, while
the herd behind him went oareening
into the kilIinp rom
Since then Judas has been regular
employe Of the cattle yards. Every
day he leads up herd of cattle and
every day he lodges just at the door
of the building. He has saved the
cattlemen no end of trouble and delay
with riotous herds since he began his
service.
He has grown fat and sleek on the
good living of the yards, and so high
ly are his services regarded that the
cattlemen provide him with white
blanket on cold days to keep him com
Portable.
And thus he is living to green old
age, but he bears the disrespectful
name Of Judas-thc betrayer.

HAND-TO-HAND FIGHT.
Rare Occurrence In "a Battle With
Modern Weapons.

I4ADYSMITH, Natal, Oct. "a (vta Lon
don, Oct. 25.-The fight made by Gen.
White, seven miles from here, to cover
Gen. Yule's march to Ladysmith, was
short and savage. The worst of it was
between detachment of a Devonshire
regiment and twice their number of
Beers. The Beers, outnnmbering the Brit
ish, began extending their lines to turn
the British left flank The Devonshire
men We're at the extreme left of line Of
low hills which separated them and the
force Immediately opposed to them from
the rest of the battle. The remarkable
thing was that both sides charged at
once. Originally nearly rnase apart.
they advanced by rushes, dropping to
cover every fifty yards and these tactics
brought them very close before many
were hit. The English yelled "Majuba,'
ajuba," at every jump.
The conclusion of the affair was what
was never expected to occur in battle
again-a hand-to-hand conflict, just as
If the opposing forces were not armed
with rifles for which mile is a mod
crate range. 1t was an awful mess, and
the British would have been overpowered
had not the main fight to the eastward
gone against the Beers. They had to
fall back, and those fighting against the
Devonshire men found themselves with
out support. Thirty men were killed and
wounded in a space smaller than a city
square.

CENsURE LORD WoLsELEY.
British Public Wants Facts @EFrom
the TranSVaaI.

LONDON, Oct. 25-The commander in
chief, Field Marshal Lord Wolseley, has
apparently been convicted Of 'doctoring''
of official reports from the front, and
there is a strenuous demand on all sides
for a revision of the earlier practice,
when the reports of Gen. Sir Stewart
White, the British commander in Natal,
were given out teXtually as soon as re-
ceived The commander in chiefs sum-
mary read in the house of commons yes
terday spoke of Gen. White having
fought a successful action, whereas Gen
Whites own account puts an entirely
different complexion on the situation,
and, by reducing the movement to its
proper proportions, shows that further
exciting intelligence may be expected
from the same quarter at any moment
1t is quite evident that the war in Ma
tai has only commenced, and that the
Beers are by no means discouraged at
losing the first two battles. Many ex-
perts are satisfied that Gen. Joubert is
even now close to the heels of the British,
and that decisive action may be fought
today or tomorrow
