THE THREE LINKS
Cut from Barre Granite by Alexander
Dobie.

At recent meeting of Green Noun
tain Lodge, I. O. O. f., Mr.. Alex
ander Dobie, the then N. G., present.
ed to the lodge very beautiful and
artistic emblem in the shape of three
links, cut and polished from one piece
of Barre granite, each link being re-
lieved clear from the others, just as
natural as though they formed part
of chain. Mr.. Dobie stated that
when he cut the links he had no idea
Of the benefits of Odd Fellowship, but
simply undertook the job in his leisure
hours, in the hope of proving that
the three links could be cut in gran
ite, and now that he was an Odd
Fellow he thought that the most ap-
propriate place for them was in the
lodge room, SO he intrustcd them to
the care and keeping of Green Noun
tain lodge.
Every granite cutter who has seen
the links admit that very few could
do the same piece of work, and when
we know that no pneumatic tools
were used in the cutting, any one can
realize the difficulties that had to be
overcome for the slightest wrong blow
with the hammer would be enough to
spoil the whole affair
No doubt Mr.. Dobie felt proud of
his work, for many an anxious thought
it must have cost him before he saw
it finished.
Amongst the many places where it
has been exhibited may be mentioned
the Worlds Fair at Chicago, where it
attracted SO much attention and
where it could have been sold at very
tempting prices.
Green Mountain lodge feels proud
of the emblem and has given it a con-
spicuous place in the lodge room,
where it will always be reminder of
the first N. g., of the lodge.

lowing yesterdays success, Gen. Bra
bant again engaged the Beers today
with advantage, holding the position
that he occupied yesterday. There

mounted force pursued them, but the
result is unknown. The British cas-
ualties in the two days were 13 killed

unknown. The troops from the Colo

the arduous fighting and the severe

MAFEK|NG TO Be RELIEVED
Strong British Force Marching to Relieve the Garrison
Reinforced by Cecil Rhodes Troops.

London, March 6.--The Beers in
Northern Cape Colony are in full re-
treat to the Orange Free State. The
possession of Stormberg puts General
Gatacre in railroad communication
with Gen. Clements at C0lesberg, and
the entrance of additional troops into
the Free State is greatly facilitated.
Gen. Whites garrison has begun to
leave Ladysmith for the Mooi River,
and will campaign then further south.
They are emaciated and exhausted.
The road to Colenso presents scenes
exceeding the horror of Dantes Infer
no. Dead men, animals, ETC., mutt
lated, purified lay in the trenches oc-
cupied by the Beers. This fills the air
with sickening stencil. According to
the Boer prisoners taken at Osfontein,
another important British success will
cause President Steyn to flee from Pre-
tora leaving a provisional govern
ment at Bloemfoeteln.
This is likely to make peace over
lures. The recent rains afforded Lord
Roberts plenty Of good grass for his
horses, etc.

Railway Development in Africa.

In twenty years time, it is safe to
pr0bpcSy. railway development in At
rira will have made enormous strides
and the many important branch lines
20 connect with the CapeCairo trunk
will have been constructed or be near
completion. In the south the line from
Johannesburg will join that at Bull
awnyO: Bulawayo again, will be con-
nected with a line running right across
country to Waltisch bay in German
West Africa. In central Africa the
trunk line will connect with German
and British lines running to the east
coast; and it is only reasonable to sup
pose that by that time Il line or lines
through Belgian territory will connect
or be in close touch with the Cape-to-
Cairo route And that the trunk line
will be paying concern there is no
reason to doubt In the Rhodesian
section already built the returns have
advanced by leaps and bounds. The
engineering difficulties of the Cape-to-
Cairo line are considerable, but not in
superable: so that with Mr. Rhodes at
the head to push the thing along"
there is every prospect of the scheme,
vast as it is. being successfully accom-
