Not a delegate to the Democratic National Con-

The rumor OF the anxiety and mental

OF the terrible slaughter OF British SOL

In the extreme. She Is now, for the

Of the queen regent OF Spain. when the

seeing her rule OF peace Interrupted
by sanguinary wars. Her soldiers
have slain their thousands and tens OF
thousands In Asia and Africa. But the
present situation she feels,with the keen
instinct Of n woman. to be nothing short
OF national calamity.
The thought that tho rcversos In
South Africa In course Of time must be
turned Into victories. is but partial
relief In the present agony. That can
not recall to this scene Of action those
who have been slain. Nor can II
prevent the sad reflection that victory

terrible sacrifice. The South African
war must be heavy blow to the aged
queen. no matter from what point Of
