committee of the international peace bu-
reau has decided to make a final appeal
to the twenty-five powers who are signers
of the conventions adopted by The Hague
peace conference, in favor of the restora-
ton of peace in South Africa. The com
mission calls attention to the clause of
the convention for the peaceful settle
ment of international conflicts by the
terms Of which the signatory powers
agreed to use all efforts for the settle
ment not only of difficulties among
themselves, but of all international dis
putes. Consequently, the commission
declares, an offer of mediation cannot
be considered by Great Britain as an un-
friendly act.

The wealthy Briton is confesseoiy
the most fastldious man living as to
the quality of his personal domestic
service. The concentrated energy with
which an EDgllshman will rebuke his
servant for an offense so slight that
the average American fails to observe
1t bears out the above statement, and
1t is this social condition that has de-
veloped the hyperaristocratic intelli-
gence office In London.
Those who propose changing serv-
ants are not content with references
and perfunctory interview with the
man or maid under consideration, but
insist upon full dress rehearsal Of
both manners and appearance.
The servant in livery is put through
all his PAGES, must display the size Of
his calves, the haughtiness of his pose,
as well hs breeding In handling n
card, announcing guest or serving at
the table.
Nothing is taken for granted. The
master and the mistress sit by and dis
cuss the points of groom or butler as
they would those of high priced horse
or valuable dog, pomestics are taken
with great seriousness by the upper
class Englishmen, and for that reason
nothing-is left to luck In peopling the
servants hall.--Cleveland Plain Denier.

Now the Golf Cart.

If one would be thoroughly up to
date when he drives to the golf links,
he must now go there in his golting
cart, for that is the newest thing that
the carriage makers have turned out.
The cart Is four wheeled affair and
locks like a dogcart or game cart.
The body has one of those moderately
high. boXlike bodies, with n coucave
curve at the back. the whole made Of
solid wood instead of being perforat-
ed with holes, as is done with the game
carts, originally intended to take
gamecocks to the pits and through
which perforations air was admitted to
the fowls, or Slated, as are the dog
carts, the object In this instance being
to admit light and air to the dogs.
A fellows bundle of golf clubs needs
neither light nor air, and so they are
carried in a basket strapped diagonal
ly across the rear of the cart, much as
the horn basket is strapped to road
coach. One of these traps was shown
at the recent horse show, and 1t occa-
stoned some comment among people
who were pretty well up on carriages,
but the puzzle was not solved, MS the
trap was one that was sent out of the
ring early In the game. A number of
these carts have lately been made for
shipment to the fashionable country
places.-New York Times.

Of silk or one of the oriental silks.

over the inside Of the skirt. About IA

with haircloth facing. This, too, is

IDENTIFYING THE DEAD.
Precautions Taken by British SOL

precautions Taken by British SON-
1 dicrs Before Going Into Dntt1c.
The names Of the British killed and
wounded after battle are ascertained
by means OF the Identification cards
which all our soldiers carry sewed up
In the left hand corner OF their khaki
tunics.
On the card are written the soldiers
name, rank, regimental number, to-
gether with the name and address of
his next of kin. The latter are added 80
that the authorities may know where
to forward the effects of any soldier
, who gets killed.
After an engagement the roll is called
their camp. Every man who does not
answer is "ticked pff' as missing, and
search is made for him on the field
! As the search parties come across the
dead and wounded men they rip open
the tunic at the left hand corner and
take out the Identification card.
The cards thus collected are carried
back to camp and handed over to the
clerks Of the general in command, who
therefrom compile the casualty lists.
After all the cards have been collected
the roll is checked again and note
made Of those men of whom no trace
has been discovered. These are usual
ly presumed to have been taken prison.

You will probably be surprised to
learn that one of the last things "Tom-

A stor, of John MorrI..ey.


Henry l.. Dawes of Pittsfield, Mass,
successor OF Charles Sumner In the
senate, told the following story:
when was Judge in Plttsiield,
Morrlssey and Yankee Sullivan fought
n prize fight at n neighborlng place
cnlled boston Corners Sullivan was
arrested and fined $1,000. He handed
over the money and went his way. A
day or two later, while | was sitting on
the bench, a fine looking man entered
the courtroom and sent letter up to
me. 1t was from n friend of mine in.
PRODUCING John Morrissey. He, too,
was fined 81 coo and said TO me that
he would send me his check ON his re-
turn TO New York.
"Well, didn't know what might
happen II he was let go on that under
standing, but said TO Morrissey that
any arrangement for settlement which
he made with the sheriff would be sat
lsfactory. The sheriff, feeling as
did, insisted upon having the fine paid
in cash, and since Morrissey didn't
happen to have that much cash with
him the sheriff locked him up until
the amount was sent on from New
York.
II fancied that Morrlssey felt he
owed me grudge because of this in
cident. Years afterward In Washing
ton number of new congressman
were brought up to be introduced TO
me. Among them was Morrissey.

for waist lining there was drilling or
