Century Review of Marietta.

The Leader has been favored by the
compiler Of the Century Review with
advance proof pages, and feels safe in
saying that this handsome pamphlet,
Marietta's progress and surroundings,
will be greatly appreciated by the
pushing men of the city and the gener-
al reader as WELL The writer is a
great condenser and in about 120 pages
will be able to give full retrospect of
the city, which will doubtless have a
wide distribution, and we believe will
promote the future good of the place.

by clairyoyant in Chicago that her
missing son, Clement, IL years old,
would be found in three weeks. Hay-

and waited. Monday came letter
from the boy, written from the Jail in
this place, and when Mrs. Rowell
reached here it was just three weeks

out into the world and earn a fortune
sufficient to buysall the horses his heart
could desire. 1t was seven weeks ago
when he left home. After visiting sew

in with a crowd Of hoboes and reached

In his destitute condition the boy
was tempted to enter two farm houses

he was easily detected and was lodged
in the county Jail. When his story was
told in court the judge discharged him.

New York, Nov. 15.--War news
from South Africa increases in rank
and variety, says The Tribune's Lon
don correspondent. There are fresh
details of eight or ten minor actions
and skirmishes all the way from
Orange river to Lydenburg. The con-
clusion that may fairly be drawn from
this revival of hostilities is that the
British army is now thoroughly alert,
and more than match for Boer wiles
and strategems. The Beers are now
outmanoeuvered and surprised, and
the British cannot be entrapped, even
by DeWet.
Much is said in England about the
necessity for revolutioniZing the war
office and transforming the whole sys-
tenn of military training. Too little
stress is laid upon the fact that an
army of more than 100000 men is now
having in South Africa the most siren

GEAR is PHYSICALLY WEAK.
Europe Thinks His Illness Is More Serious
Than lis Admitted.

London, Nov. 16.-The impression
exists in most European capitals that
the Illness of Emperor Nicholas is more
serious than it is represented to be, but
this is probably based upon knowledge
that the cars constitution is not
strong and Is little likely to resist a
serious attack. In Copenhagen the ill
ness is attributed to oyerwork in con-
nection with the Chinese crisis, and
there is also suspicion tAat the
hyglenic conditions and water supply
at Liyadia may be faulty.
1t is feared, however that even If
no complications ensue the attack may
be of long duration. There is no news
from st. Petersburg on the subject be-
yond the official bulletins, which indi-
cate that the attack Is only slight, no
high temperature having yet been
reached.
