The characteristic weakness in: the
present campaign is the Old, vicious evil
OF insu4ar arrogance and habituai con-
tempt CT others, OF which it sometimes
seems that Englishmen will never be
cured unit. they have received per-
manent4y SOLDERING lesson at the hands
OF sorae European adversary. We have
been demorallzed by victories over coll
oreo races, forgetting that war is like
music, where bad practice is worse than
none Which of those who are attack
ing the war Office and giving generals
the benefit of all the obvious ideas Of
the armchair were in. favor Of the gov
eminent sending out more than 10000
men to South Africa six months ago?
The Beers had to be dealt with, but they
were not for that reason to be Gespised.
have hardly ever known an English
man from South Africa who was not
confident that the Beers were: stink
ing cowards,''' and the re1t of it, who
would never stand up against British
troops in the field.
/ We had exactly the same opinion OF
the American coionists, aud when
George III. thought that. few regi-.
ments would be enough to bring them

Boer war nothing would induce British
officers to believe that these unkempt.
,frowsy farmers could fight trained
troops in uniform, and that loose shirts
ard patched breaches might have 4
good account of pipe-clay. The most
formidable British forces ever put into
the field, booked or surrounded in
every direction by a rough colonial
militia-there has never been anything
like it in history! It's nearly certain
that the forces with which the enemy ia
holding US in check are far smaller than
we have recently tried to believe.
This is a situation that ought to cure
us Of the complaint of bind national

Mathematical Worries That Hava
sArlsen with the
%E5s{,s s55is New Year. 81

The advent Of the year 1900 & has
brought other mathematical worries
than that regarding the relation it
bears to the twentieth century. There
is for instance difference Of opinion
us to@how the numeral signifying the
year shall be written. Several ways Of
arranging the Roman numerals are
possible, and the battle of the Ms and
8C's and .D's may be said to be now fair
8 y on. As a matter of fact the Roman
mineral has fallen largely out of use
during the century just closing, and
is now to be found chiefly in formal
documents and occasionally on the title
pages of books. The modern mind il
too thoroughly ACCUSTOMED TO the more
easily written and understood Arabic
numerals topause to figure out intricate
problems in the Romans. The year
1900 may be regarded as AGO years after
the year 1900, or 100 years short of the
year 1000. Much depends upon the
point of view. II the year 1900 is taken
as the base Of calculation, that being
the least multiple of 500, the present
year may be written MDCCCC, meaning
1000 years, 500 years and 400 years, =
total of 1900. Or, somewhat on the
same basis it may be written MDCD.
which means 1000, 500 and hundred
less five hundred. This, however, is an
awkward method, and might confuse
some nonexperts. Taking the years
2coo a. a basis two ways are possible.
MON, meaning 1000 and 81: hundred less.
another thousand, or CMM, meaning a
hundred less than 1900. OF these two
the weight Of reason aud usage lies
with the former, on the principle that
nis proper always to express the largest
possible established nun her, and to re-
sort to subtraction only in case of the
smHlest possible numeral to produce
e. definition. Should the principle
Q. we expression be regarded
throughout, the symbol MDCCCC would
stand ~ the correct numeral for the
year, for it involves no subtraction
whatever. At the same time it is true
that the syn for 8 is always arranged
epon the basis Of subtraction, thus, TX.
Upon this principle, which is carried
through the nult;?lss. the prorer syr,-
Dol for 1900 would be similarly sub
tractive, OF MCM. And so MlM is find.
Ing many advocates, and it may prove
that for hundred wears the world
will be divided jE,o TWO rive. camrs.
those who persist in writing NDCCCC
and those who maintain that h;CM
alone Is proper. II is relief to reflect
that with the year 900 the CONTROVERSY
will cease, for there is no dispute over
the double M.--Vvashington Star.

and it was coming from the side op-

The man did not hesitate. He
plunged into the swollen stream,
reached the other shore, rap to the
flag station and signaled the excur-
sion train. Then he disappeared in the
darkness.
Back to the river he ran without q

crossed again. Another rapid run to

William j. Bryan was nominated tor

He received every vote and unparal-

when he was named, one demOnstra-
ton lasting q minutes. For vice-pres-
ident. there were half dozen candi-
dates named. An effort was made TO
stampede the convention for David b.
Hill Of New York, but he personally
protested against being nominated and
