4. womansa Persever.,,r,..

An interesting story of a womans perseverance comes from the wilds of GIamorganshire, England. She had inhe%9ed a small farm and as soon as she arrived at marr1ageabIe age be- gan looking for husband to share her lot. She was quickly married, but the couple had hardly settled down to welded bliss when the husband died without having had a chance to begin to cultivate the farm. Not intimidated by this, the widow married second husband, who sowed the fields with grain. He likewise died. She tried a third, who reaped the grain, but death soon snatehed him away. She then married fourth, who thrashed the grain. He also followed the fate of his predecessors. She then married fifth husband, with whom she enjoyed the produce of the farm. Tbe little woman had boldly married five men la the short space of eighteen months.
 The Flight of Empress Eug
 The true story of the flight of the Empress Eugenie from the Tui1leries will soon he publiet d. It is now in the form Of manuscript left by Dr. T.W. Evans, the American dentist, who accompanied the Empress in her flight to England. Dr. Crane, who aided Dr Evlns in protecting Eugenie and aeeelerating her flight, says he only awaits decision of the court be- fore publishing this contribution to French history. The reason why it was not published during Dr. Evans life time is because it deals hard blows at those who q serted the Empress in her hour of trial. Now that most of the chief acteFs in the drama of 1870 have passed away, the venerable ex- Empress has exl .sed the wish that this inter- esting manuscript be published.

 From Rensburg, 1n Cape Colony, comes the news that a train loaded with supplies and without any engine somehow got started on down grade within the British lines and was head- ed for the Boer lines. IL was seen to be impossible to stop the train, so, rather than have the supplies reach the Boers. the British gnnners directed the guns on the cars and destroyed them and their contents.
