CHINESE NATIONAL HYMN.
When Natives Want to Sing This They
Take a Day OF.

rake Day On.
IL takes day to sing the Chinese ma
tionai hymn. Sometimes people over
there say: Let's take a day off and
enjoy the hymn" But they don't say
Il often. It's hard to keep UP enthu-
siasm for a twelve hour stretch.
OF course they start in cheering vocif-
erously. and then they sort of weaken
and grow hoarse and look at the
clocks. and 10, it's only half an hour
since the blame thing began. And there
are places further on where they ought
10 just get up and YELL. and they
haven't the strength to do 1t, and prob
ably they fall asleep long before the
grand patriotic climax Is reached
You can't expect to find much Fourth
20 July inspiration in a people with a
ditty Of that sort. And think of the
strain on the singers and the tomtom-
mers! Think of putting dozen hours
on steady run of 'hiyahs- ching-a-ring-
a-chi-yahsi" and no let up for either
breath or chopsticksl And whacking a
tin pan all the time. tool
Think of going TO little evening out
and having the hostess say: Miss Pc
keo of the Shanghai conswuvatwah
viii now favor us with the national
hymn"
Is Il any wonder the Chinese have
failed to understand the meaning OF
good government? a national hymn OF
those dimensions would be apt to Soul
anybody but a deaf paralytic on the
best government that ever existed.

cessary to build a double platform
about the pump and then cover the
| boards with sand or sawdust. Unless
| great care is exercised to close all open
ings, the sand or bits of wood will be
blown away in Il short time.
| One peculiar feature is that the snow
and ice will sometimes adhere to the
material protecting the pump and at
other times will all melt away. The
farmers have sometimes retired at
night when there was a thick coat of
ice and snow about the pump, and in
the morning when they arose it would
be entirely melted away, when the
snow a few feet away remained UNI
melted.
After making a series of investiga-
tons and examinations the conclusion
has been reached that about sixty feet
below the surface of the earth there is
field of coarse gravel and that dur
ing glacial times this was filled with
water. Perhaps there was an under
ground stream there which carried
away a portion of the vast volume of
water which resulted from the melting
of the immense quantities of ice during
the closing years of the reign of the ice
king. After the water disappeared the
small crevices or openings between the
stones and coarse particles Of sand be-
came filled with air and this immense
region below is not unlike the air
chamber ON force pump. AS indica-
ted by a barometer when the air be-
comes lighter above, the compressed air
below will expand, and being forced
out, produces a current. When the at
mosphere above becomes heavier or
when 1t exerts a greater downward
pressure, the air is crowded into the
little air spaces below, to be released
again when the pendulum swings to-
ward the other extreme. On account of
these constant changes above there is
either a current downward or upward,
varying with the barometric pressure
at the surface of the earth.-Chicago

BRITISH, ADVANCING.
Have Almost Driven the BOers Out OF
the Free State.

The situation in the Boer-British war at
the beginning of fast week was that of the
continued general advance of the British
forces under Lord Roberts. Winburg
surrendered 10 Gen. Hamilton on May >,
the passage of othe5 Naal at Fourteen
Streams opened the way northward toward
Mateking on the route by rail, the abandon
ment of Thaba Nchu made Rundle's co
operation with the main army possible on
the east, and the crossing of the Vet by the
column with which the Field Marshal is
personally identified brought kroonstad
within measurable striking distance. The
retiring. burghers showed no disposition to
risk decisive battle at any point.
Lord Roberts has been very strict in his
examination of the farms, with the result
Of disclosing the fact that nearly every
house is miniature arsenal, Mausers,
Martins, and abundant ammunition being
found. Ii these had not been discovered,
the army would be leaving in its rear the
material in men and arms for a dangerous
movement among the Inhabitants. All
along the railway the culvertS, wherever
OF any size, Rave been utterly destroyed
but the engineers hope to make a detour
In some eases, and in others they will fill
up the gaps. The Beers were SC active
that the British cavalry could not flank
them.
The advance continued throughout the
week and up to the middle of this week.
Ten. Hutton, with mounted infantry,
reconnoitered May. to the Zand River
and found the enemy in considerable force.
Gen. Broadwood's Brigade of Cavalry,
with Gen. Ian Hamilton's force. performed
the same operation with much the same re-
suit.
On the 9th Hutton attempted to seize a
Boer convoy that was leaving the Zand
River. He advanced toward the river with
mounted infantry, including the Canadians.
A long line OF wagons was plainly visible.
On becoming aware of Gen. Hutton'S
object, the Beers stopped their retreat
and opened fire with 10 guns. They
seemed in great force, and threatened
Hutton's flank. Presently mounted Boers
were seen crossing the dry bed of the river.
They circled to the right and began to Ell
tilade the West Australians, while many of
the British were hit by Boer shells. The
position became serious. The Beers sent
up reinforcements, placing the Australians
III danger of being cut off. Thereupon,
Gen. Hutton ordered a retirement to Welge-
legen, where he had left his own convoy.
A portion OF the forces advanced and en-
