The tone In which this word was pro-
n0unced convinced Andre that his
fathers decision was infexible. He
was accustomed to bow to the will OF
despotic father, just as he had seen
his mother yield until her death. In his
childhood he and his mother had been
compaEsons, and often together they
had bent their heads to the fury of a
Storm aroused by some slight or irreg-
uiar domestic occurrence. Not that M.
Delyalley was a bad man. He was
quick-tempered, but usually repented
his outbursts and tried to make amends
when he saw the effect Of his harsh
words Before he was very old Andre
had seen that the family life Of his
father and mother was not happy
one. though he did not know to what to
attribute the state Of affairs. Since his
mothers death he had simply given In
to his father when any question Of dis
agreement had come between them,

ably together.

Kitchener was made commander-in-
chief Of the forces in Egypt. He led a
successful expedition up the Nile
against the Khalifa, safely conducting
his troops up cataracts and through
marauding tribes and burning deserts
until Omdurman was reached. Here
was fought terrific battle between
the Anglo Egyptian troops and the
dervishes, the latter being cut down
like grass before the scythe. In one
charge the dervishes lost 1000 men
and when the battle was over 10000 of
their dead and dying strew the ground.
The Khalifa and his chiefs were fugi-
tives and have recently been killed.
Kitchener, on returning home after
this brilliant expedition, became the
popular idol. He is the youngest ma,

While no official statement is forthcom-
ing as to the position of france, in the
absence from Paris of those in control of
her foreign policy, the following, emanat
ing from an official associated with the
French government, expresses the views
OF the foreign Office at the present juno
ture:
I'VE have no revenge to seek in China
and we have no intentions to demand such
recOmpense i'll the shape of indennities
as will create resentment against foreign
ers. Our policy will be one of liberal edu-
cation, the effort to teach this great mass
OF people to trust and regard Europeans
faYorably. In the end LnIs may result in
the advancement of civilization for the
one and commercial prosperity for the
others. Those who think that a change
OF government will change the character
OF the Chinese people have not broad
understanding OF Ine deep-seated ideas
which centuries have bred in them. To
make a radical upheaval of their form of
government just at this time would do
more harm than good. We snail attempt
" hiu suIl@ole PSlsoh vi HDtldl lucas
towards foreigners who will assume the
relns of government. Our position follows
the identical lines of the United States in
nearly every instance. Commercially we
wish the broadcast international construc-
ton to be placed on foreign privileges,
and it is a fact that had not your coun-
try declared an open door at the time it
did, France herself would have done so.
The reply made by the United States to
Ii Hung Chang's request for the appoint
ment of an emissary to act with a view
to settlement and the establishment Of
peace receives general approval here.
France will take similar position, for
we must be assured that we are negotiat-
ing with a concrete body, and not with a
shadow. While we have special CONNER
cial interests in Yunan and Sze-chuen,
our desire to develop that region would be
defeated should we act ON narrow, selfish
ideas there"
