"Well, if q man goes into literature he must
expect his pay in something besides dollars
and CENTS" remarked a Chicago novelist as
he stroked his blond imperial.

who writes western stories and delights to
have himself photographed in a picturesque
felt hat and an overcoat with a cape to it.

"They treat me the same way" said the
little blond man, who has a trick of holding
his head on one side. "Now for my Sky

with Mrs. Seymour-Seymour in it, and the
Snobs murder case, and all that, West side
and North side and all that-what do you
suppose l got for that? A beggarly $35, 900,

They looked at each other narrowly. The
man who writes prairie Yarns said he
must be going. As the elevator descended
with him swiftly he muttered:
You never can tell one so big that that

The little blond man laid his throbbing
forehead in his hand and mused: at takes

current on the Berlin and London
bourses. Though it is quite possible
the report is true. there is no news
corroborative of the rumor.
At a meeting of the town council of
Windsor Wednesday morning, it was
announced that news had reached
Windsor castle that Ladysmith had
been relieved. The announcement was
received with immense enthusiasm and
shouts of Bravo Butler"
The Windsor report of the relief of
Ladysmith created momentary jubi-
lation which was followed by a deluge
of queries at all the official points in
an endeavor to ascertain the truth.
London. Feb. 22.-Lord Roberts list
of 40 killed and wounded officers. in
Guiding two generals in the engage
ments up to Sunday evening, causes
anxiety, especially as in the officers
list neither the losses of the Welsh
and Essex regiments nor those of the
mounted infantry are included. This
is about the number that fell at
Colenso, where the noncommissioned
officers and men brought the total
losses to 500. 1t is considered strange
that when sending his casualties Lord
Roberts gives nc information as to
the result of the fighting. If he has
sent such a report the war Office is
withholding it. Moreover moth
ing is known as to what took place
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.
London, Feb. 22.-Winston Churchill,
in a dispatch from Chieveley, dated
February 20, says he still expects fierce
fighting before Ladysmith is relieved,
and he. again urges the imperative ne
cessity of pouring a continual stream
of men, guns and supplies" into the
Cape. He declares that soldiers are
wanted in South Africa and not at AL
dershot. Meanwhile he sees 'many en-
couraging signs that the Beers are
wearying of the struggle"

The commission appointed by the
New York senate to investigate the
prisons of that state has filed it's report
with the legislature. The commission
presents several suggestions toward
carrying out the idea that prisons
should be conducted with the end in
view of reforming the prisoner and not
simply Furnishing him. They condemn
anytreatment that will tend to decrease
s~elf-respect, and they urge the aboli-
ton of the lock-step and the prison
stripes. The commissioners hold that
the prisoners should be classified upon
the basis of present behavior.

The agricultural experiment station
work which has proved of the greatest
practical value to the agricultural in
terests of the United States is likely to
lie extended to the Philippines, Porto
Rico and Hawaii. Secretary of Agri-
culture Wilson has asked congress to
appropriate $4,000 for Hawaii, $780, 900
for the Philippines and $4,000 for Porto
Rico in order to establish experiment
stations on these islands. He believes
that even these small appropriations
will accomplish a great deal of good on
account of the present lack of knowl-
edge among the natives.
