InfantIIe PxeluslYeness.

There is a little Sixteenth street girl
still under six, who may be described
as the limit in the matter of sensitive
ness. Likewise, she has her points in
respect to dead gameness. She was
taken out to Takoma Park about d
week ago to spend a few days with
her aunt. The tot played around in
the front yard Of her aunt's pretty
home for a while. Then her aunt let
a playful little fox terrier into the
front yard, saying to the child:
This is your little four-footed
cousin"
Five minutes later the aunt returned
to the front yard to call the kid into
the house, but she wasn't anywhere to
be seen. The fox terrier was playing
alone. There was a scrambling hunt
for the tot, and all kinds of alarm, but
the little girl didn't turn up. The aunt
hustled into town. The little girl was
home with her mother.
She had walked to the Seventh street
road as soon as the fox terrier pup
was presented to her, and, not having
the price Of a ride into town on the
cars, had asked the driver of a groc-
cry delivery wagon to give her a lift
in. The driver took her home.
'NVhy didn't you stay at auntie'sP'
her mother asked her. in surprise.
"She introduced me to a dog!" re-
piled the naughty young person.

Mr.. Wyndams speech was the
strongest defense the government has
yet put forward as to what has been
done and is being done. The general
tone Of the morning papers is that his
figures will astonish the country.
NRoughly speaking only $4,000 men
are at the front. Ten thousand others
have been lost and 10000 are shut up
at Ladysmith.
Excluding these there are 10000
troops who have not yet been in &C
ton, in addition to those at sea. Why
SO many electives have not yet been
engaged is explained by the lack Of
land transports and the organization
of supplies, to which Lord Lord Rob
5erts is devoting his experience and
Lord Kitchener his genius for details.
1t seems as though the weight of
these masses must destroy the equi-
librium which now holds the British
forces stationary wherever they are in
contact with the Borer army.
Lack of transports or organization
will not explain adequately why, when
generals at the front request re-en-
forcements, they get them in small

Boer lines.

the crossing of the Tugela to the aban-

The only announcement regarding
