There are two views of the national

alone, but that every real national life
pours itself into the service of mankind.

AN IMPOSITION.

A few weeks ago an accidental break
occurred to one Of the Selby hill cables,
and during the time of repairing 1t was
possible for the street cars to use only
one track, causing most annoying delays
to passengers. especially at certain hours
stills" at the ill were nothing uncommon.
Patrons OF the cars, recognizing that the
break in the cable was a pure accident,
were disposed to be charitable to the rail-
way company; but, even so. there was
very strong opinion that the company did
not rush the repair, taking as 1t did
something like a week to make it. Yes
terday the same sort Of annoyance was
experienced by travellers at the same
spot It appears that this time one Of
the two dummies becoming disabled was
the cause This was also, perhaps, en-
accident, but 1t was Of the kind that
should not have Inconvenience the public
at ALL Two dummies are continuously
required to operate the cars on the hill,
and vet 1t seems that these are all tbs
company has.
Had the street railway company small
degree of the respect for Its patrons that
their liberality entities them to. there
would certainly be provided and always
ready for use in such emergencies at
least one extra dummy. In view of the
enormous patronage it receives. miserable
parsimony in It's equipment Is utterly In
excusable on the part Of the Twin City
Rapid Transit company.

PUBLIC NOT PLEASED.
Emperor Williams Play Given a
Chilly Reception.

Chilly Reception.
BERLIN, Feb. H.-The first presenta-
ton tonight Of Der EisenZahn ("The
Iron Tooth'o at the Royal theater was
notable event, socially and artisticany
All the tickets had been sold nine days
ago and the house was packed.
Emperor William appeared during the
second act, and sat almost unobserved
and quite alone in the royal orchestra
box. screened by the drapery from OBJ
servation.
After the first act there was complete
silence. After the second and third there
was rather vigorous applause, but from
the paruuette, where the critics and lit
erary people sat, and from the second and
third galleries, there came piercing
storm of Kisses.
The emperor. whose collaboration with
Can't. Laus In the play Is well known, was
highly displeased.
Capt Laus took a cup of tea with nus
majesty after the third act, having twice
answered calls from the boxes and else
where, and having come before the cur
tain as pale as q ghost. Then he, with
the emperor, left the theater, whlcn
caused a sensation. Neither the empress
nor tho imperial princes attended quite
contrary to the previous arrangement.
The public verdict on the play Is that
it Is verbose, although containing nne
dramatic passages, and toe pafpaoiy
glorif1es the Hohenzollern hero, who put
down the Berlin rebellion in 1447.
The acting was excellent throughout
especially that of Herr Matkowsky, as
Frederick Of Hohenzollern, and OF FRAU

NEW YORK. Feb. 2S-Gen. Miles said
Of Cronje's surrender:
CronJes surrender was expected and
1t was the only possible outcome after
force Of 5000 has held out for a week
against trained force Of $1,000. Cronjes
action will strengthen the cause Of the
Transvaal. You will observe that Cronje
at first had q force of 5000. He surren-
dered with 5000, what became of the other
5000? The effect of the surrender shows
the fighting valor Of this handful of
Beers. only 5000 against an army Of $1,000
of English picked soldiers. The effect of
Cronje's surrender will be to strengthen
rather than to weaken the Boer power
and cause in this war s,fe
I'VE cannot help but admire these
Beers. no matter where our sympathies
be. In my position it would not be dip
lomatic for me to say too much, but, who
ever is in the right, We must admire the
5000 patriots who stood off for ten days

WASHINGTON, Feb 27.-The proceed
1ngs of the senate committee on prlvi-
leges and elections in the case OF Sena-
tor Clark of Montana, today dealt with
the bank accounts of some of the mem
bers of the Montana legislature. Ono
of these accounts was THAI of Repre-
sentative Bywater, of Flatnead county
who deposited $4,000 In the Bank of
Montana, at Helena, on the Sd of last
March, after the adjournment of the leg
fslature.
Mr.. Bywater was put on the stand. Hs
said that he had brought $4,000 of this
sum to Helena with him, and kept 1t in
his trunk all winter, while $1,000 had been
received from his brother as purchase
money on a sale of mining stock. He
declared that he had not received any
pay for his vote for Mr.. Clark In the
senate. but said that Mr.. Whiteside had
told him that he could get 5000 fer sup
porting Mr.. Clark.
Other witnesses of the day were Clark
Rickerts, of the Montana state supreme
court: T. c. Kurtz, of the Montana Ma
tional bank, both new witnesses, and
Attorney General Nolan. Mr.. Whiteside
and D. C. Peller recalled.
Mr.. Whiteside, the first witness Of tina
case. and who. in some respects, may be
considered the prosecution witness. was
called for rebuttal purposes. lie first
related his meeting with Ben Hill, in
Butte, when the latter made his affidavit
as to the transactions in Helena while
he was there supporting Mr.. Clark for
the senate. Mr.. Whiteside said he had
not suggested to Mr.. Hill any statement
to be made in the affidavit. Mr.. Hill had
intimated at that time that he wanted
financial assistance, but none had then
been given him. He denied that he had
given Mr.. Hill any money for testifying
in the Welcome disbarment case, and
also that he had given any money for
DR.. Minshall.
Mr.. Whiteside also referred at some
length to the testimony of Representa-
tive Jacqueth and Witness RIngwall.
He was especially emphatic and sweep
ing in his contradictions of Ringwall, as
sorting practically that there was no
truth in any of that witness testimony.
Referring to the testimony of John
Burns, Mr.. Whiteside said he had never
told Mr.. Byrnes that he meant to Job
Mr.. Clark. for he had no such intention;
his intention, however, was to show up
bribery wherever 1t appeared. He had
never told Burns that he had been Of
fered 100000 to leave the state, as he
had received no such offer
Mr.. Whiteside said that he had not
only not received any money for his part
In the senatorial investigation, but that
he was in debt to the extent of several
thousand dollars. Mr.. Conrad had offered
him money in his legislative campaign,
but he had not accepted 1t.
In reply to questions from Mr.. Foster,
Mr.. Whiteside said that he had paid
his own expenses In this investigation,
amounting to about $1,000 and that he
had received but $500 from any other
source. Mr.. Campbell loaned him that
amount,
