London, Dec. 1.-The war office has
received the following from Lord Kit

also several minor affairs.
According to the Daily Express no
more infantry drafts will be sent to

dispatch from Pretoria saying that
fighting has been going on for four
days at Bronkhorst Spruit. east of
Pretoria, that Commandments Viljoen
and Erasmus, with $500 Beers, are now
surrounded, and that so Beers have
been killed.
At the war Office this dispatch is
characterized as belated information
regarding events covered in the Of
fetal dispatches from Lord Kitchenet
dated Bloemfontein. Nov. 80. although
the statement that the Beers were sur
rounded is not officially supported.
]. NJ. Robertson, who has just re-
turned from South Africa in speech
at meeting of the League of Liberal
said the people here knew little o
nothing of what was going on in At
RIGA. He further asserted that he him
self saw an order of Lord Roberts III

Our base ball boys should serve
notice on the Shreveport nine to
bring along their bathing suits, also
scaling ladders, for their Sunday
game. The boys down in Shreve-
port don't know how many bitches
and pit holes there are on the out
skirts of the base ball grounds at
this place, and they never will
know until the Chic kids put few
balls in dead negro gulch" and
send a few grounders in "no mans
lagoon. When Arkadelphia and
Marshall played ball here, the boys
of those cities spoiled their pretty
uniforms diving for spheres, and if
the Texarkana team can only find
the Sport picther's balls they will
give the visiting team a chance to
show what they know about playing
water ball. Captain Chic has
three men drilling for second base,
and will take the best of the pic k
when the game is played. He said
to the reporter confidently: "Put
all of your salary on the Vets if
you want a soft thing. We've heard
this kind of dance music before and
went into the set, aud our money
paid the piper and we didn't have
very much out of the dance either.
Still the Captain speaks what he
believes, but we are here to tell
you not to place too much conf
dence in a dead easy thing on

that a game is not won until it is

HAPPINESS.

Happiness is quality that every
one ought to possess. 1t makes one
pleasant, agreeable at all times,
and is an indication of good and
pure heart. A great many people
think that if they were surrounded
with all the luxuries of life, they
would be very happy; but they are
the best witness against themselves.
Already have more tharI deserve,
and are unhappy with that; it they
had more they would be still less
happy. People who are thus favor
ed often prove to be the most un-
happy So we can readily see that
It's not our worldly possessions and
surrounding that make our lives
happy. | have heard people say
their home among the mountains of
Switzerland, where the scenery sur
passes in beauty that of all the
rest OF the world, their happiness
would be complete. l think in a
measure this is fact as the eye
takes in the beauties of nature.
Our troubles are all forgotten for
the time being. True happiness
does not consist in riches alone; but
good health is the most important
thing to make people happy. After
all this is an internal quality. and
does not depend very much, and
perhaps not really at all, in the sru-
roundingS. A man or woman of a
happy disposition will be happy any
where and make others happy. 1t
is quality that ought to be cult
vated Let US all try to make our
selves and Others happy. 1t is best
not to begin with ethers, and we
will not fail to come in for share
OF it.
