English military Negligence.

The following letter has been re-
ceived by the editor of London Truth:
"Sir: 1t is notorious that orders have
been issued to the Boer marksmen to
pick off the officers of the British
army. I happened to be at Southamp-
ton last week when large body OF
men was being shipped for South Afri-
ca and / cannot describe the astonish-
ment which it caused me to perceive
that the officers wore clean shirts and
had washed their faces. contend that
all distinctive marks of superior rank
should be removed unless we are to
risk unnecessarily the lives Of our Off.

INDIGO IN COLONIAL TIMES.
1t Was Looked Upon as a Sort of Cur
rent Coin.


rent Coin.
The colonial ladies were great gar
deners, and the hours they passed with
their fruits and flowers must have been
moments of much pleasure in their
busy lives, says Longman's Magazine.
The most famous of these ladies was
he daughter of George Lucas,a planter
oil Carolina, and at the same time
governor of Antigua, at which place he
appears to have resided, leaving Miss
Eliza at home. From Antigua he sent
hei' all sorts Of tropical seeds Of fruits
and flowers, to try if any would take
kindly to the soil of Carolina. Eliza
observed certain hopeful signs with re-
gard to the indigo and undismayed by
repeated accidents to the young plants,
at length obtained a good crop. Gov.
Lucas was so delighted at this UNI
looked for success that he sent over an
Englishman to teach Eliza the whole
process of indigo working. The Eng
lishman, bearing gifts, seems to have
been a rather sly and tricky sort
OF person, but when did England ever
get the better Of America? The youth
full Miss Lucas saw through the Eng
lishman's lodges, (his name was Crom-
welD, and Finally obtained a success
full KIN owledge and application of the
compile and annoying methods of ex-
tractiniy indigo" A bounty of Cd a
pound encouraged the planting, and
through its profits more children were
sent over from Carolina to be educated
at home than from all the colonies put
together. Indigo was looked upon at
last as a sort of current coin, and it is
on record that when little boy was
sent to school at Philadelphia, he took
with him wagon of indigo to pay his
expenses.

pains in the back of her head and under
shoulder blades. By noon she was so bad
that she was almost delirious and il was then
that commenced giving her Dr. Miles
Nervine. She felt the effect of the medicine
inside of an hour, and by evening she was
quoted so that, after taking full dose, she
retired and slept soundly all night Tho
next morning she could not tell that she had
had the grip. This cure seems almost too
rapid to be true, but it is a fact and
we think II she had taken the Nervine before

exceedingly FAMILIAR.
The war in South Africa is produc-
tiv OF the greatest curiosities that
ha We ever come under the notice of the
Br ltish soldiers. One of the latest re-
po rts from the scene states that the
sin lple-minded British soldiers have
init itaken troops of ostriches for bands
OF Beers and bands of Beers for troops
of .ostriches. In some cases the os-
triches have made friends with the
soldiers. One of the best known cor
respondents at the front, who was
with General Methuen at the Modder
river, reports this remarkable Incl
dente while l ranged the valley or
plain with my glasses something slip
ped and tumbled heavily over the loose
stones behind me. l turned, thinking
to do dye or help stumbling man and
found myself staring into the great
brown eyes of an ostrich six feet tall
| and with legs almost as thick as and
longer than my own. He came up
here some days ago. said soldier,
'and he always stays here now. We
feed him and fool with him, and he
seems very happy The ostrich stalked
| past me and took position between
the major and the captain, where after
appearing to observe that they were
very busy scanning the landscape, he,
too, stared at the plain and remained
erect and watchful, the highest type Of
a sentry in appearance. He marred
this fine effect for just a moment by
Selling and swallowing a box of safety
matches. After that he continued his
sentry duty with satisfaction in his
eyes," The ostrich is a great figure
in public life in South Africa. He is
source of wealth and often a friend
and companion. He is a valuable sub
stitute for a watch dog. He can kick
a horse to death and is, therefore, very
formidable to burglars. He eats with
relish things that would poison the
strongest goat that ever lived.-New

Mayor Tom Estes came over on
the East Side yesterday in his rub
Der tire buggy and inspected the
street work going on. The Mayors
mouth watered and he seemed to
say: "You gentlemen of the East
Side think you are the whole show
when it comes to good streets, but
you just wait and see if Alcalde
Estes don't think up some scheme
OF paving the West Sidestreets, for
the old saying where there is a will
there is bound to be way" and
the will is not only lodged within
the breast Of the Mayor, but in the
entire city council, and if we don't
rig up scheme to rock our streets
we would like to know why. Here
the Mayors reverie was cut off by
Contractor Ockander approaching
and asking him about rocking State
Line Avenue. The Mayor said:
IF l am not fooled, l think we will
give you an order on Monday morn
ing to gravel State Line Avenue,
and if we do, it will be only a begin
ming to a triumphant ending of
street improvements" Mayor Es-
tes is going to have something to
show the people after his admins
tration is over, or we will get glori-
ously fooled in him.
