All but three places have sent in
their returns of the election. The law
requires that if the returns are not in
before n certain date the Council shall
send q messenger for them. In one of
the places but four votes were cast
That place is SO remote that at one
time several years ago when an at
tempt was made to get the returns,
it was impossible to make the trip,
since the place is so remote from
civilization and the messenger was
stopped by ice in the river from com
nleting his trip. 1t is probable that
the votes of the towns combined will
not combined amount to over 10. and
the expense of getting the returns Will
be considerable. but as the laws MAKE
provisions for getting the returns ana
leave no option. they will have TO be

LORD ROBERTS.
How the British General Appears to
His Men.

Julian Ralph, in Harper's Magazine
No one questions or doubts Bobs" in
the British army. His place is unique
there-and in all the world besides. In all
the world besides no other man has the
confidence. affection and pride of so many
men, 1t is not merely the private soldier
who is wholly satisfied simply TO be led
by him. The feeling is the same among
the officers. He has infinite tact, because
he is in complete sympathy with every
man in or above the ranks. He returns
every salute; he talks to every sort of sol
der: he knows them by name by the hum
dreds He is more profuse in kind words
and compliments than in reproof just as
he is most inclined TO be gentle and kindly,
yet every man knows how firm and severe
he can be. In those two sentences lies
the definition of perfect justice. which he
nearly personifies. He makes so little show
and parade that there is no palmer man
among his 100000; and yet he is always as
neat as a pin; a straight-built, solidly
bright eyes under a majestic fore
head and above masterful chin.
His face is so sad and gentle when it is
in repose that you have to look at it again
and again-and then only to add TO your
wonder how that can be this visage of
a man who deals death for profession,
and leads to death the flower of the army
he loves. Look at the same face again
when he is speaking giving orders. 1t is
Just sas kindly, but the melancholy has
fled, and in its place is the indefinable
tracery called command"
At Dreefontein he came out to where a
naval battery was and sat down a
camp-stool brought for him by his Indian
attendant. He spoke TO the officer in COM
mand of the battery cheeriiy, and now and
then he asked the younger officers ques-
ton All the time he was smiling and
looking most pleased, though, for its size
there has not been a hotter battle I'm the
war Gallopers and staff officers came and
went. bringing news and taking away or
ders. Tell the Colonel So-and-so TO move
a little forward and TO the left Say
that I wish So-and-so would push for
ward" 1t was all as quietly and calmly
said and done. there In the heat of battle
and within range OF the enemy's guns
manager issued orders to his clerks a
dull afternoon. And, just as suddenly as he
came the field marshal sprang up and
walked away. with the Indian and the
chair at his heels.
