then, in a single day, Ladysmith was relieved and Colesberg was redeemed, and the whole shell lay in ruins. The aim was to take Ladysmith, Kimberley and Mafeking, and to alienate the northern part of Cape Colony. Kim berley and Ladysmith have been re- lieved, Mateking is holding out, and doubtless will to the end, and Cape Colony is rid of the invaders. In every one of these four details the Boers have failed. The wonder is, of course. not that they have failed, but that they re-
 sisted failure so long and indeed came so near succeeding. There is no doubt that the collapse of the Boer oligarchy and the establishment of British author ity will mean liberty and good govern ment, for Boer as we'll as for Briton."

 sas. We had nothing to eat or drink and
 practically nothing to talk about, exI cept our dismal lot. Toward nightfall we got to discussing in all earnestness the miserableness of our existence and have always remembered the remarks 1 of fellow sufferer who we called West Virginia Brown. He was supposed to be the degenerate scion of a noble Eng fish family, and was one of the best educated men I had met in Hobo- grumbllng, but at last there was lull in the conversation, and he spoke up.
 T wonder he said, whether the good people who rest on Sunday. go to Church and have their best dinner i'll the week, realize how life is turned up- side down for us on that day. There have always been men like Us in the world, and 1t is for us as much as for any one, so far as know, that religion exists, and yet the day in the week set apart for religion is the hardest of all for us to worry through. Was it, or wasn't it, the intention that outcasts were to have religion? The way things are now we are made to look on Sunday and all that it means with hatred, and yet I don't believe that there's anyone in the world who tries to be any squarer to his pals than we do, and that's what l call being good"
 The last the road knew of Brown he was serving five years sentence in Canadian limbo. His lot cannot be pleasant, but methinks, that on Sundays at least he is glad that he is not outside.

TIMELY IND GRA CIOUS.

President McKinley's wise, discreet and eminently patriotic message to Con- gress proposing that all the money al- ready collected by our custom houses on Porto Rican products amounting to about $2,100, 000,-be made immediately available for relief of the distress in Porto Rico struck a responsive chord in the popular heart of the nation, and re- dounds to the credit of the President as statesmanlike as we'll as patriotic act The prompt action of the House in re- sponse is meet gratifying. The New York and Mail and Express, speaking on this subject, remarks: "A more gra- cious or more timely act than that which the President has recommended has rarely been performed by any gov ernment We greatly mistake the tenn per of the American people if their in- dorsement of it be not cordial and unan- imous.
 ITO the people of Porto Rico the Pres ident's words will no doubt have an un- familiar ring, they are in such signif- cant contrast to the utterances they have been accustomed to hearing from Spain. Sentiments of good cheer. deeds of manly generosity such as have thus far characterized the policy of the ad- ministration toward the island, were

bow of black velvet ana white lace, and an unusual color scheme is completed. Not q few of such are distinct gain in beauty and richness, but they are hardly safe for amateur effort. There are too many chances of getting a re- suit that looks like patchy hodge, podge.
 Separate skirts of summer material are out in full force. It is now possible to buy wonder of a skirt made of pink lawn, beflounced and edged with row on row of baby black velvet. It is an easy matter to match the lawn and make bodice finished with a dash of the black velvet. Then you have a whole frock very easily. White lawn skirts with insertions. flounces, tuckings and lace come in all degrees of price and beauty. It hardly seems worth while to have the skirt of a summer gown made; better give all attention to the bodice. One must be little careful to see to it that she is able to match the trimming used on the skirt. But not a few will plan their white gowns with bodices almost plaint, just cut out

l One of the schemes long talked about
 in Massachusetts and of general inter
 est as well, is that of the construction
 of Cape Cod canal. One of New Ha-
 ven's most prominent toWnsmen to
 whom old ocean in all it's moods is
 very familiar, has for many years
 taken a lively interest in this subject as
 a wholly disinterested observer and has
 urged not only the practicability Of
 such a canal, but it's absolute necessity | for the benefit of that large and inn portant portion of the people who go down to the sea in ships and who have to travel by way of the cape in ques- tion Many vessel wreck and the loss
 of many lives might have been averted had such q canal been available. The
 project of building such a canal has
 been so frequently aired in Massachu- setts that when the project Is brought
 up now it is set down at once as a ghost story, but admitting all this, the
 Providence Journal says that at last there is move on foot which may per
 haps amount to something in the case. It says: The fact that stares the men who still laugh at the project in the face is that the Boston, Cape Cod and
 New York Canal Company is hard at
 the task of getting the beginnings of
 the construction work on record. The
 men behind this owning corporation as-
 sert that their construction company
 will be able to complete the canal if
 ize the former to guarantee expenses.
 The debate of Tuesday revealed that
 1t may be very easy for the owning
 company to borrow funds. The legls-
 lation proposed at this time on finan-
 cial grounds asks for the approval by the state of six millions in bonds and
 six millions in stock These securi
 ties are to be issued to the investors,
 who are expected to take most of them at par. This expectation may be defeated. and probably will be. But it Is reported that expert contractors contend that the canal can be fin- ished for three millions. If that is so, then the issue of the stock and bonds at a very low rate would still permit the execution of the work. Many persons take the view that the job cannot be completed for less than ten millions. If they are correct the owning company will be bothered to get all the money required. Yet if the figure is placed al six or eight millions it would be practical to be- gin the channel and carry it pretty well along on the bond issue alone. If the Massachusetts legislature did not feel called upon to devote one-half of every year to burdening the blue books with excessive legislation, there would not be so much talk about this canal A canal is feasible On paper 1 and might be good investment, but 1t has so long been the football of ir- responsible promoters and idling leg islators that each new plan is justly viewed with much suspicion.
