AT first Lord Roberts reported that
Gen. Hunter captured 5000 Boer sol
diers; then it was reduced to 9S6.
Probablyi will rest there, though it is
more than likely, judging from past
reports, that if the exact truth were
known it would appear that the actual
number was about 1877. The recent
admission of the British war office that
the Beers had. some weeks ago, killed
total of more than 81 900 British sol
diers while the aggregate of British
killed as reported and published from
time to time by them, was, in all, less
than 5000 should teach readers of news
to be discreetly suspicious of British
reports of their own losses, and of those
of the Beers. If we multiply the British
reports of their own losses by five and
divide their reports of Boer losses by
five, we will get pretty close to the
truth, Judging from what we now know,
upon their own confession, as to their
past discrepancies.

and watched carefully during that
campaign to see some denial of that
speech from him, but saw none and we
do not now believe there was any. And
Notwithstanding Roosevelt's tardy de-
NAL, three years later, we think the evil
dence OF several newspaper reporters
given q the time, is far stronger and
more entitled to credit. Without a
doubt the republican candidate for
president did say in 1896 that if the
majority of the American people elect
ed a president contrary to his, Roose-
yelts choice, he was ready to oppose
the Inauguration of their choice by
armed force. Such a man belongs
rather in Central America, where poll
ticians are in the habit of rushing to
arms when the election goes against
them. He is out of place in the United
States,

Ducks and Swans.
(By Rev. DIR. Reldnihcs.)

There is an interesting old story
about family of ducks. One was big,
ugly ana awkward. This particular
duck was suspected and disliked by the
rest of the family. He was pecked at
and ridiculed continually. Finally this
duck himself got the notion that he was
ugly, and he became depressed in spirit
and took on the habit of being down
cast. One day he ran away from home
and lived about among strange duck
families as he could find opportunity.
But lie was nowhere appreciated; he
wandered farther and farther away
When he left home he was only young
duck; but he continued growing larger
and more mature. One day he met a
number of very large and beautiful
birds. They greeted him kindly and
invited him to join them. They were a
lot of swans, and ne proved to be a
swan himself. In his new and more
congenial surroundings he soon forgot
that he was regarded an ugly bird, and
he took rank in the new companionship
at his true value. He was soon entirely
changed from his mood of depression
to a hearty interest and enterprise in
all that concerns the progress and COM
fort of his kind.
Now it is Just possible that we all
know few people who are regarded
in their own neighborhood as either
wicked or worthless people, but who
deserve better Judgment. They are
not properly esteemed because they are
not just like their neighbors; indeed
they are better than their associates
but are not appreciated. Many a
southern sympathizer who eagerly
watched the noted contest between
Abraham Lincoln and Stephen A.
Douglas mistakenly estimated the now
immortal emancipation to be an ugly
duck. But before his tragic death
Lincoln proved himself swan in moral
purpose and true patriotism. However,
so stubborn is the duck disposition in
some people that we now aud then find
a person who still refuses TO allow that
Mr.. Lincoln was anything more than
an overrated aud very ugly duck One
such man in particular comes to mind
as write He has quaeked in spiteful
jargon for nearly thirty years at what
he calls "uncouth and cruel features
in lineoln'S character. He is now so
old and tough in his pet folly that he
really believes the great martyr was
not very much of a man A candid
and just Judgment on his part is now
impossible.
All this simply illustrates what is to
be found in every community. Out of
spite. envy, or even meaner phrases of
character, some people misiudge others
who are, perhaps, their superiors in en-
dowment and their betters IN purpose
ann conduct Let us be careful whom
we rate as ugly ducks, for We may do
injury TO swan.

THERE should be still living, North

thousand or two thousand men were

The Chaparro tree of the United
States of Columbia is credited with
a phenomenal endurance of fire. The
tree-botanically known as Phopsala
obvata-grows to height of fifteen to
twenty feet, and its distorted trunk
measures from nine to twelve inches
In diameter. In Tolima where other
trees are nearly all destroyed by the
persistent burning of the savannahs
and hills for renewing pasturage, the
Chaparro not only resists the fire but
seems actually to seek It. In the lower
hills. reduced to sterility by the inces-
SAINT burnings, hundreds of square
miles are covered by growths of these
little trees. which are as regular in
arrangement as In a carefully Guilt
waited plantation. The resistance of
the tree is due to the structure of the
bark, of which the outer portion, to
the depth of half an inch is of peculiar
composition and serves no vital funo-
ton.

resolutions on this subject prepared to
offer for adoption. Had such been the
case undoubtedly would have heard

association bear proof that they are
opposed to President McKinley's policy

SIR Bombaster FurioSo, Lucius
O'Trigger Roosevelt has not, so far as
we have noticed, denied as yet, any
thing the reporters have attributed to
him in his recent speech to the republi-
can clubs at Minneapolis. He will wait
to see the effect of it and then if he
thinks it good politics to disclaim he
will do so. This is what he did with
reference to n speech made during the
campaign in 1896. The reporters who
took down that speech credited him
with saying that he would lead bri-
gade to prevent Bryan's Inauguration
if he was elected. Three years later,
when this statement was brought up
against him in an article in the Arena,
he wrote letter to the editor of that
magazine saying that the report of his
speech was untrue in that particular,
that he never said so, and that he

1t can truthfully be said that of all

sin, that Ellis Usher, who penned the
above, was the greatest rainbow chaser
of them all, and those SO foolish as to

it is different. The Gov. does not make
