CHARGES AGAINST MINER.

an interview he has just had with
Mr.. Fisher one of the Boer peace COM
m~issioners, who arrived there yester-
day.
Mr.. Fishr said he was convinced
that Sir Alfred Miner when appointed
governor of Cape Colony and British
high commissioner in South Africa,
went to Cape Town with a fixed inten-
ton, with a mission. to bring about
the war and this was proved by the
fact that Miner had systematically
opposed the Transvaal's generous eff
forts and concessions to avoid war, as
though he had reviewed precise in
structionS to follow this line of policy.
While the Transvaal was making
concessions" said Mr.. Fischer, Great
Britain was gathering troops along the
frontier"
The Boer envoy accuses Sir Alfred
Miner of classifying dispatches. In
fact, according to the commissioners,
accusations against Sir Alfred Miner
constitute n of the principal features
in the peace negotiations which the
commissioners seek to carry through.
The Boer envoy left Naples today
going by way of the st. Gothard, pass
and without stopping here.

CASSIE BOON MURDER TRIAL

Charleston, S. c., April 10.-There
was much excitement and interest in
the Cassie Boon murder trial at Ches-
terfield, this state, this morning, as it
was known that Thomas Steen, one of
the men charged with the crime, had
turned states evidence and would be
put on the stand 1t turned out to be
quite a disappointment, as he did not
come up to expectation. Ben Jackson,
who has been held back, is to follow
as states evidence. The defendants
are hopeful of aequittal, believing that
no case has been made Of it. The case
will probably go to the jury tomor-
row.

crime was committed in the Cane Sa-

dwelling house was falling in and in
the panic that followed. one child was
left in the house and was burned TO
death, the others narrowly escaping

His wagon n farming implements

goes on to say that this has come to
be recognized form of casualty in the
hospital and neurological columns of
the daily press. At intervals TO be
sure n candidate, introduced with too
much enthusiasm into the mysteries of
the occult orders, has one of his fea-
lures permanently modified or one of
his limbs fore-shortened by his com
rades. At rarer intervals a member of
the degree staff slips up ldisastrously
on the smooth floor where he is gyrat-
ing in the weird war dances that he
believes have come down from the
Pharaohs. or he falls into the icy bath
intended for another and contracts a
cold that settles on his lungs. But this
is not very common and in no way de-

secret organizations to society.
There is an impression, which the

| many solemn and noteworthy sensa-
tons as a ride on a scenic railway at a

The Issue in Kentucky.

Imperialism is the paramount issue
in Kentucky; not the straw bogy of
national Imperialism set by the Kan
sas City convention to deceive voters,
but the real imperialism of the Ken
lucky Democracy which has substitute
ed fraud and force for free ballot in
that state. 1t is a genuine and vital
issue, and in the campaign now begun
its Importance will not be for a mo-
ment forgotten. When Hon. John w.
Yerkes spoke, accepting the nominal
said: We have in Kentucky, under
our election law. the only Imperialism
of this era, an Imperialism that. with
Oriental denial of right. justice and
law. robs more than one-half the elect
ors of this state of the constitutional
privilege of having voice in the selec
ton Of those who bear rule cover
them" That charge is strictly true
and unless kentucky glories in its
Shame IL Will DuIS ueep tile Nrotbti law
and the Goebelites, next fall.
The Republicans of Kentucky have
nominated a strong, clean man in Mr..
Yerkes and will not only poll the full
party vote, but will also attract the
anti Goebel Democrats, many of whom
participated in the convention. The
promise of the Democrats to amend the
| Goebel law comes too late and is
| known to be insincere. They have
nominated young Beckham, the acting
governor. No office, except the gov
ernorship, is to be filled and no issue
except that of political fair play will
| figure prominently in the campaign
| The Republicans are clearly in the
| right and deserve a sweeping victory.
No state campaign will be watched
with greater interest than that in Ken
lucky.

The Message from Pekin,

The ray of hope given the country by
the message received from Minister
Conger at Pekin, is followed by re-
newed anxiety and uncertainty. The
mysterious message leaves much I'M
explained, and in many places is not
given full credence. The absence of
date is much commented upon. Why
was the message so brief? If the Pekin
government is strong enough to effect
communication, why is it not strong
enough to save the ministers and for
|eigners? 1t is declared that being in
the state department cipher and in re-
Spouse to Minister Wu's message of in
quiry, it is incredible that the message
was counterfeited by the Chinese If it
is true that our minister was alive, last
week, there is ground for hope of his
final rescue II he had been able to
hold out a month or more, it is not i'm
possible that he can hold out days or
weeks longer.
any W dS, Jul SoNtIuIil Will
doubtedly act on the assumption that
the message was authentic and ex-
haust every endeavor to rescue him
and those with him. Prompt action is
necessary and it seems inevitable that
the message received at Washington
shall spur on the allied powers to move
in harmony and with vigor. While it
would be fatal to make dash for
Pekin with an insufficient or mad
equately supplied force it is as bad to
delay action. 1t seems too much to
believe, however, that the allied
powers can assemble a sufficient army
and force their way to Pekin in time to
effect a rescue. 1t may be that with
the refinement of cruelty for which
they are famous the Chinese permitted
the dispatch to come out of Pekin to
raise false hopes and give us glimpse
of the grim tragedy being enacted.

A Summer Shower.

The wind that has been playing with the
tasseed heads of grain
Now sounds sudden warning moan that
tells of coming rain,
And all the running, creeping folk, and
all the folk that fly,
Are filled with CONSERVATION as they hear
the warning sigh.
And into holes and creviceS, in frantic
haste and fear,
They run and crawl and hop and fly, and
quickly disappear;
The squirrels to their nests have gone,
the bees gone from their food.
And safe beneath a rhubarb leaf hen
has clucked her brood,
The butterflies have left the air, the
crickets left the grass,
When like breath the raindropS fall,
and like a breath they pass;
And then the golden sun returns and
drives the mist away,
And all the creeping, flying folk come
back to work play.
