AN AMERICAN GIRL, TOO
Only Womah Who Has interviewed
the Princess OF Wales.

Only woman Who Has lntervtewcu
the Princess of Wales.
Saturday Evening Post; The only
newspaper woman who eve inter-
viewed the princess of Wales is an
American girl, Miss Mary Penfield. 1t
came about in a curious way. A new
drama was being presented at a lead
ing London theater and Miss Penfield,
her editor and the playwright were
occupying a box. Suddenly there was
A round of applause and into the royal
box came the princess of Wales and a
lady,.
The playwright looked at his friends
and exclaimed, II wonder how h
princess likes my piece!"
Miss Penfieid, more in joke than n
earnest, replied, "I1l GO and find out"
She was promptly challenged to do
Il, and rather than be accused OF fear,
rose and left the box. AS required by
London etiquette she was in evening
toilette, better dressed, in fact, than
most of the audience. At the royal
box the official looked at her inquir-
ingly, and when she nodded he opened
the door and bowed her in. n adj
ranced two steps and bowed to the
princess, who motioned her to a chair.
She seated herself promptly and lis
tened to the princess comments upon
the play. Undoubtedly she had been
mistaken for some one else, because at
the end of fifteen minutes the box
| opened to admit a lady who rcsemblcd
her in face and figure. Miss Penfield
t~hereupon rose, bowed humbly and re-
turned to her friends, TO whom she re-
| heated the criticisms.

FOReSEEN BY JoUBERT.
Dead Bocr Commander Realized IL
Was a Hopeless Struggle.

Was n Hopeless Struggle.
New York, May 2S.-General Jou-
bert on March IL, eight days before
his death, wrote a letter to George
w. Van Siclen, of this city, in which
he said:
"Our small, but noble Christian peo-
pie arc at present in q very strait
ened and, l may well say, miserable
and dark condition.
Driven to war, and, l may well
say, to a ruinous war, by the pre-
sumptuous and overpowering English
government, our small number of
fighting men, with few guns and little
ammunition, did wonders with Gods
help against q vastly greater force;
but the superiority of England by
which that power can furnish against
our two, three or four cannon, twenty,
forty or even more and thousands of
men against our 100 or 200, is such
that anyone can already foretell ac-
cording 10 human nature, what the
result will be after thousands of brave
English soldiers and hundreds OF
valiant English officers have been
killed by us or taken prisoners; that
we yet i'm the end will be compelled to
yield before a force of 100000 soldiers
with our three or four thousand.
"And now our God, who rules heav-
en- and earth, has made many nations
great upon earth. Among those also
is the great American republic, the
United States Of America. All these
powers are great. They naturally
have no necessity to yield to England.
The only small Christian states upon
earth are the Orange Free State and
the T'rnnsvaal, and they will now not
only be checked in their development,
but will be swept from the world and
Dnnjhiloted."

GOING AFTER FACTS.
General Wood Making n Thorough
Investigation.


Havana, May 2S.-Bristow, acting
director general of posts, today abol-
ished the solicitors bureau, appoint
ing in its place a law clerk with one
stenographer and thus saving $4,000
annually. Many other reforms are
promised.
The inspectors are still busy over
the postal accounts, and they say il
will be a month before their report
will be ready. In the meantime it is
not likely that important develop
mcnts will arise. General Wood has
ordered that every department of the
islands be thoroughly overhauled. The
auditors are now dealing with the
treasury and with the North Ameri-
can Trust company. Later they will
deal with the custom house. There is
no suggestion that frauds are sus-
pectcd in connection with any of
these departments or institutions, but
General Wood feels that the public de-
sires the most complete investigation
Of all accounts. Such a move had
been contemplated for several weeks
before the discovery that something
had gone wrong in the postal depart
ment. General Woods order will be
executed quite irrespective of the in
vestigation hat congress is likely to
direct.

Eat and Lean.

Scientists with the government in
Washington assert that American men
are bullying in the middle because
they eat wheat and oats in n form
or another, says the Cleveland Leader
Men with large stomachs are FREE
duently proud of the distinction. Of
ten they stand with their hands on
| their hips and their coat tails pushed
back. The side elevation may be
startling to the beholdcr or may be
entertaining or may engender covet'
1t all depends upon the
point of view. But stomachs are
largely a matter of food and drink.
If YOU want flesh about the hips
and abdomen eat sugar and starch
wheat, oats, fresh bread, cake, pie,
preserves, candy, ice cream, potatoes,
heavy soups, fat meats, nuts, butter
cream, oyster p%atties, goose livers,
beans and bananas.
If YOU are already too large, diet,
diet, diet, and then begin all over
again. Cruelty your appetite; go into
a straight jacket; array yourself in
sackcloth and ashes. Live on lean
meat, eggs, fish and raw cabbage.
Drink hot water. Walk five miles be-
fore dinner. Starve in the land of
plenty. Become irritable. Watch
the hungry and fierce look grow into
your face. Go to the scales every day.
Dream of banquets. In three months
your clothing will not fit you. Oh,
it's great fun for the tailor and the
doctor.

thrown without injury to honest
trade.
1--WE, therefore, favor such addition
al legislation, both state and national,
as shall establish complete legal con-
troll over all trusts and mon0polies,
with full power to dissolve the same,
and mete proper punishment to all
who thus seek to destroy honest COM
petition and prevent the widest possi-
bic employment of labor, and we favor
such amendment to the constitution
of the United States as will give to
congress full power to enact such leg
islation.
1--WE congratulate the people of the
country on the enactment into law OF
the currency bill, which provides the
gold standard as the monetary unit
of value. Financial discussions no
longer disturb the business conditions
of our people. The republican party
stands for money laws that benefit all
the people alike, the borrower as well
as the lender; laws that tend TO re-
duce and equalize interest rates in all
parts of the country, for the benefit
of our producers-thc farmer, the Ia
borer, the manufacturer and the MGR
chant.
II hCNNlDDlf'i va bS 49,
It's has been largely brought
about by the survivors of the war of
the rebellion, who were among its
earliest and most active settlers. The
republican party now, as always, APP
preciatcs the fact that they redeemed
and saved the nation in its hour OF
peril, and that TO them is due all
honor from a free and grateful people.
"We point 10 the part taken by our
w South Dakota soldiers in the war
with Spain and the insurrcction in
the Philippine islands, and the honor
and credit they reflect upon our fair
state. They proved themselves brave,
loyal and patriotic. Their glorious
deeds upon the field have given then
a name among the brave sons OF
America, of which their state n its
people are justly proud.
1--WE unhesitatingly indorse and APP
prove the policy and the course OF the
administration and the legislation by
congress in respect to our newly ac-
quircd possessions and Express full
confidence i'm the wisdom, integrity
and ability Of the administration, sup
ported by n republican congress, to
deal wisely and justly with the ques-
tions concerning the same, as they
may arise.
1--WE favor the extension Of the pow
ers Of the railroad commission sc rs
TO include the supervision of express,
telephone and telegraph companies
doing business within this state. We
favor the extension, in our state, of
the system of rural free delivery OF
mail, where practicable, as rapidly as
may be done.
"NVc declare ourselves in favor of the
enactment OF a statute, with proper
penalties, providing for the purchase
within the state of all printing, blank
books and stationery for public use.

Only nm Ace aud Ten Left.

Scottish American: A young mar

coach and a new footman to match.
John" she said one day, 1--WE will

shan't get out of the carriage; you
will, therefore, take the cards that

John, and he ran upstairs to fetch the
cards.
After they had driven about a con-
siderable time and cards had been left
at a large number of houses, the lady
remarked:
Now we must call on the Dales, the
Framptons and the Clarkes."

many other prominent Beers have
large interests i'm the mines"
/ asked him what he thought OF the
war as it stood at present. His reply
was that he thought the game was up
and that no stand would be made at
Pretoria, but at Iydenburg.
/ suggested that the English, with
u large force at their disposal, would
take Lydenburg.
THAT he replied, "is impossible.
~Lydenburg is SO surrounded by noun
tains that it would be impossible to
take It,"
"Why not starvc it out?" / said.
TO this he replied: "Why, all the
provisions from Pretoria are being
taken there, and there are enough to
last for three years."
So, If he is right, we may have a
siege of Lydenburg which will beat
all siege records.
"And President Krueger?" | asked.
"He won't go to Luxembourg"
"What will he do, thcn?"
"Just as he did i'm 1880. He will go
mp country and no one will be able
TO find him."

ESCAPES FROM THE SHERIFF.
Horse Thief Gives Union County
Officials the Slip.

officials the Slip.
Elk Point, s. d., May 25-Dan Beard,
alias Dan Petit. a police court char
acter in Sioux City, who was being
held az Elk Point for the larceny of Il
horse and buggy and against whom
warrants are outstanding at Canton,
escaped yesterday forenoon from
Sheriff Ryan, of Jefferson county,
South Dakota, and after a hard TN or
five milcS through the timber came
down the Missouri river in a skiff.
When Ryan could get back to Elk
Point he telephoned the fact of
Beard'a escape to the Sioux City po-
lice, ana the river was being watched
for him last night. 1t vas thought GER
tain he would seek shelter in Sioux
City.
Beard accomplished his escape by
working on the officers sympathy. He
was in the court house and was al
lowed to go into a toilet room. From
this place he made his escape by
crawling through a window.
Not only at Elk Point and at Can
ton is Beard wanted, but also at Sloan,
where he is suspected of having stolen
a pony.
