Ways of the Lord Bishop

pr. Mandell Creighton, the present lord bishop of London, gets about with remark able a1acrity, anpd crowds more work into a day than smart journalist. He rarely has time to prepare his speeches carefully, and many of them rae made up in his riage while on the way. His letters average sixty day, or nearly 20,00O a year. and these are read and answered Then there are committee meetings, ordinations-in fact, it would be easier to catalogue what the lord bishop of London does not do than what he does. He is not a teetotaler- he smokes, he likes a good play, and he spends his holiday in the little Italian vi- 1ages, where he throws work to the winds, and prowlS about the hills doing nothing.

London, October 31.-A belated dispatch from Pretoria tells of the failure of the for the surrender of the Boers. Botha re- ceived General Pagets flag of truce cour- teously, and admitted his defeat, but said it Was impossible to treat for surrender so long any burghers wished to continue the war.
 President Steyn was more irritable. He refused to receive the bearer of the flag of truce.

EIDllSIOl N Northern Wisconsin.

The wise poor man who bought
a farm on easy payments, and
the wise manufacturer who err
ected factory in Northern Wis
consin a few years ago, when
times were not as prosperous as
they are now, are reaping their
reward. Northern Wisconsin is
feeling expansion in the truest
sense of the word. Opportuni-
ties have not passed, by any
means. There are still thousand
of acres Of rich hardwood timber
lands awaiting the settler as
well as the manufacturer which
can be obtained at low figures
and on easy terms. Good roads
fine school houses and other i'm
provements are increasing and
civilization is progressing. The
plentitude of iron ore, clay, kao-
line, mari and timber lands sup
plies the wants of everybody.
The transportation facilities
are unexcelled. The Wisconsin
Central R'y, a strictly Badger
State Road pierces the rich north
ern portion of the state, offering
excellent transit service to the
markets of the world. Those in
terested can obtain maps, illus
trated pamphlets, etc, by ap-
plying to W. H. KILLEN, Land
