WANT TO DROP REED CHARGES.

A short meeting of the U. s. Grant AS

quarters on Ocean avenue. There were
Just nine members present which consti-
tuted a quorum.
The trial of ex-President William E.
Reed for disloyalty is as far away as
ever. AS yet he has not even been served
with copy of the charges. The authors
of the charges have studiously avoided re-
cent meetings and it is understood they
would willingly drop the matter rather
than be made to appear ridiculous.

WAR NEARLY ENDED.
Eovernme o OmcinIs in London Think
South African Fight Is on
Its Last Legs.

London, Aug. 31.-There is very
buoyant feeling in the city, the clubs
and the public offices, and in fact in
London generally due to the prevail
ing impression that the South African
war is running out to it's last dregs.
Lord Roberts last dispatch shows
that the salient points on both wings
of Gen. Botha's position have been
carried in Buffers advance. The
troops occupied Machadodorp, Presi-
dent Kruger's most recent capital, on
Tuesday. The Beers evacuated this
place with great precipitation, but
of French's movements.
The British cavalry general had
worked right around the north of the
Boer lines, and was almost opposite
Buffers position and few miles away
from him at Elandsfontein. Thus, un-
less the Boers had decamped hastily,
they would have found themselves
caught between two British columns,
and could scarcely have saved their
guns and transport.
Whether they will yet be able TO ac-
complish their escape seems very un-
certain. They were facing Buffers
troops in the rocky position called
Helvetia, but they cannot stay there
long without being surrounded, as the
English divisions come up. If their
intention is to prolong resistance fur
ther, their only hope seems to be to
retire to the mountainous Lydenburg
region and subsequently to the north
ern Transvaal.
There are, however, persistent re-
ports that the capture of the Delagoa
Bay railway by Lord Roberts will be
accepted by them as final proof of de-
feat.
Lorenzo Marques, Aug. 31.-The
British prisoners at Moot Gedbacht
ION the railroad east of Machadodorp)
have been released by the Beers and
are marching to join Lord Roberts
forces at Watervalhoven, near Ma
chadodorr.
| President Kruger and his chief Off
cials are at Nelspruit, about GO miles
from the Portuguese border, and on
the railroad between Pretoria and
Delagoa bay.

sci coming he anticipated his master
in ringing the bell.
As the years have passed Sailor has
kept on ringing salutes to passing
vessels and steamers. Indeed, he feels
hurt if not permitted to give the GUS
tomary salute to passing craft, while
shippers whose course takes them
often past Wood island are accus-
toned to see Sailor tugging vigorous
ly at the great bell tongue.
They reply with will on their
ships bell or horn, and in case OF
steamers hearty triple blast is sent
back to the canine watcher of Wood
island, who gives new meaning ia
the good old sea term of dog watch"
"Sailor" is his masters constant
companion, and delights in being
made his messenger, especially at din
ner time, when he will come. bounding
from the kitchen to announce that
the meal is ready. He will also carry
letters, papers or small articles in his
mouth.
He understands all that is said ia
him, and although sailor dog by
adoption, his breeding comes to the
fore when some one says 1.-The sheen
are in the field"
This is a signal to Sailor to quit
sailorizing and light keeping, and get
to more serious work. He starts up
in a great hurry, rushes to the door,
and wants to be off in an instant, as
II the surrounding rocks and waters
were covered with flocks of stupid
sheep, bound to break into some imag.
inary field of grass or grain.
In his daily life in the household of
| the lightkeeper Sailor is most unseh-
ish in sharing his perquisites. He has
two large cats for companions, and is
considerate of them, allowing them to
! eat from the same dish that he does,
and often lying down with them for
quiet little nap, when his duties do
not call him to the bell.
Sailor" does not share the propen,
sity of most sailors for roaming. Ha
loves to stay near the lighthouse, and
| seldom goes away from Wood island,
though he might often make trips to
the mainland with his master. His
| chief aim in life is to see that every
thing goes well at the light, and that
| passing vessels are properly saluted.
Although reared beside the sea.
Sailor" has no taste for sport. He
will not follow gunner. In fact, he
is afraid oil gun. The report of one
makes him uncomfortable, Thunder
also has terrors for him, and he lies
very low during shower.
''Sailor" may be said TO have passed
the prime of life, but he is still at the
height of his vigor and is in fine com
dition. He weighs 60 pounds, His
color is black, marked with tan, and
he has a white spot on his breast.
"Sailor" has had his picture taken
in the act of ringing the bell, Mr.. JOS
eph w. Smith, Jr., of Andover Mass.
having snapped" him. The picture
was recently published in London
magazine.
