Sheep In Spain.

In Spain there are some 100000 Of
migratory sheep, which every year
travel as much as 200 miles from the
plains to- the "delectable mountains"
where the shepherds feed them till the
SHOWS descend. These sheep are known
as transhumantes, and their march,
resting places and behavior are regu-
lated by ancient and special laws and
tribunals dating from the fourteenth
century.
At certain times no one is allowed to
travel on the same route as the sheep,
which have right to Craze on all open
and common land on the way and for
which road 80 yards wide must be
left on all inclosed and private proper
ty. The shepherds lead the focks, the
sheep follow, and the focks are accom-
panied by mules carrying provisions
and large dogs which act as guards
against the wolves. The merino sheep
travel 400 miles to the mountains, and
the total time spent on the migration
there and back is IA weeks.-Spectator

els THE South African war at an

esting many people at the present
time. During the past week both
johannesburg and Pretoria have
been surrendered to the English and
President Kruger has either fed or
been captured. Many believe that
guerilla warfare will be continued
for many years, Facts, however will
hardly bear out this contention.
Dom Paul has ever shown shrewd-
ness in dealing with the English and
he is much more liable now to apply
himself to securing favorable terms

THREE ANGELS.

They say mis- life is barren, drear and cold,
Ever the same sad song was sung of old,
Ever the same long, weary tale is told,
And to our lips is held the cup of strife
And yet-a little love can sweeten life.
They say our hands may grasp but joys destroyed.
Youth has but dreams and age an aching void,
Whose Dead sea fruit long, long ago has cloyed,
Whose night with wild tempestuous storms is rife.
And yet a little hope can brighten life.
They say we fir ourselves in wild despair
Amid the broken treasures scattered there,
Where all is wrecked, where all once promised
fair,
And stab ourselves with sorrows two edged knife.
And yet little patience strengthens life.
Is it, then, true, this tale of bitter grief,
OF mortal anguish finding no relief?
Lo midst the winter shines the laurel's leaf;
Three angels share the lot of human strife,
Three angels glorify the path of life.
Love, hope and patience cheer US on our way;
Love, hope and patience form our spirits stay;
Love, hope and patience watch us day by day
And bid the desert bloom with beauty. vernal
Until the earth fades into the eternal.

WILLIAM J. BRYAN.

The Mlddle-of-the. Road Popuists
have placed VIM. J. Bryan in nomina-
ton for the presidency, and it is ex-
pected that the Democrats will fol-
low the example set by the Populists.
Mr.. Bryan enters the presidential
race of 1900 with some advantages
1over those of four years ago, having
gained experience, and having the
administration to oppose-there be-
ing naturally some feeling in GER
tain quarters against the party in
power. Mr.. Bryan is native of
Illinois, having been born at Salem,
just outside the region which is
called Egypt" His father Silas l.,
Bryan. was a native Of Virginia.
When he was twenty seven years old
he completed his college education.
After he removed to Illinois he held
many important Offices. VIM. j.
Bryan obtained a common school
education and afterwards studied
law, and before he became promi-
nent as presidential candidate, was
quite we'll known in Nebraska as a
leading attorney. He is man of
great oratorical powers, and most
people whe hear him are impressed
with his sincerity

The headquarters of the Repub-

mittee will be removed to Chicago,
where Chairman Babcock expects to
open up about June 18th. The mid
die West will be the scene of the most
vigorous campaign this year and it is
felt that the headquarters should be
established in the heart of the fray,
as this will enable the Republican
candidates for Congress in contested
districts to keep in closer touch with
the managers of the campaign.

THERE is food for a good deal of
thought in the way in which the
Boer delegates have turned down
their Democratic champions and
have aligned themselves with the
Republicans. This was the more
creditahle to them. as to do so they
had to cut loose from men who had
shown them considerable courtesy
and had arranged for various meet
ings in their behalf. True, the della
gates soon discovered that the object
of the Democrats in doing this was
altogether selfish, and that the at
tempt was being made to use them
as a sort of club with which to
attack the President, but neverthe-
less it could not have been easy to-
cut loose from the former associates.
But the great need of the Transvaal
prevented individual feelings from
being taken into consideration and
the ENJOYS speedily came over to
those from whom they could expect
laid. There is good reason for as
sorting that the apparently frank
disclosures of what took place between
them and the President and Secre-
stary of State was not so very frank

something more than appears
