Well Treated.
Philadelphia American.
Captain Alfred Mann, Of the British
steamship Masconotno, which arrived
from South Africa recently, was per-
mitted to visit the Boer prisoners at st.
Helena when his vessel stopped there
for 36 hours for repairs.
He rode up the hill five miles to
Deadwood Plain, where Cronje's men
are confined. The Boer captives are
confined within a barbed wire enclos-
ure a quarter Of mile square. Twelve
feet from the fence on all sides Is
second trocha like the first. 1t Is death
for a Boer private to cross the line OF
the inner pen.
CAPTAIN Mann said that Boer, wish
ing for a change Of scene, left the In
ner enclosure and advanced to the out
er enclosure. The sentinel warned him
and ordered the man to 60 back. The
Boer only laughed. The sentinel fired
and killed his man. The British soldier
was then tried and acquitted by a
court martial.
while the British soldiers sleep 13 in
a tent" said Captain Mann, 1.-The Beers
sleep only 10 in a tent. In order to af-
ford all the room possible, the British
have allowed the Beers to cut bamboos
for shacks. These bamboo frames the
Beers have ingeniously covered with
canvas and slabs of tin. There were
on the island a great many parafine

OF those whose deaths have been abso-

men, eight women and six children),
and "a were British, (nine men, 10 wo-

proof that 81 more were killed at Tai

tell substantially the same story. Ten

It is impossible to get the number
of the Catholics killed; but there were

some were in the country where the
Russians are fighting. There were also

leaders intend to exterminate them.
Literati and minor officials are send
ing memorials to the Dowager Empress
thanking her for ridding the country
of foreigners.
All the information coming from the
interior Is that, except In those parts
of the country which the foreign troops
occupy, the people believe that the
empress has won great victories and
driven out the foreigners. 1t is assert
ed they will continue to think so until
the foreigners who were compelled to
flee are able to return, and conspicuous
punishments are inflicted in retaliation
for those who were killed.

Sam Jones in Atlanta Journal.
Talk is cheap. This is the on-year In
politics and the spell-binders will soon
be entertaining the dear people at the
court houses, at the crossroads and
the big spell-binders, such as Bryan
and Roosevelt, will meet their audien-
ces in the great auditoriums and open
air meetings. OF course each side put
ting their best light upon their own
principles and policies. the other side
doing the same for theirs. and both
magnifying the faults and bad policies
of the other. I don't believe much that
one politician says about another poll
tician of different politics from himself.
Really, I don't believe much hear
"no-how." Like Bill Nye when he was
caught snoring. A gentleman punched
him and said, wake up, your snoring
disturbs u.s." Bill replied, II was not
snoring" The man replied, You were
snoring, sir" Bill said, How do you
know I was snoring?" II heard you,
said the gentleman. Law" said Bill"
"you can't believe half you hear these
days."
1 am by politics like am by scandal
mongers. You can make heap of al
lowance, and then, as the Negro says
low some more before you get 1t
straight" Saint James said, THE ton
que is an unruly evil and full Of dead
ly poison and setteth on fire the whole
course of nature and it is set on fire OF
hell" The average person does not
weigh his words or appreciate what he
saws. 1t is also true that the average
hearers do not give much weight to
words and assertions. A hog at his
slop, the dog eating bologna sausage, a
vulture at work on the carcass are sc
much higher animals than scandal
mongers that they ought not to be
mentioned in the same week, or the
same year, or the same decade. The

TESTIMONY IN CLARK CASE
Bickford the Only Witness Before II,
senate Committee,

senate Committee
Washington. Feb. S.-WaIter NJ
Bickford was practically the ONLY wit
ness before the senate committee on
elections yesterday in the Clark in
vestigatiOn. He was one of Senator
Clark : special friends in the last Mon
ulna senatorial campaign. Bedford
contradicted much of the testimony of
Speaker Stiff. Senator MYERS. RcDre-
sentative Sullivan, DIR. Ector. Coven
and others. He. however. admitted
rendering to DIR. EctOr $1,000 with
which TO lift the Indebtedness of Rep
resentatiVp Woods. of Rovelli county.
saying that he had not intended that
Woods should know of his doing this
and that his only purpose was To con-
troll the debt 50 that The DAILY people
could not get hold Of il and thus force
Wood into voting contrary To his in
clination.
He received the money from Senator
Clark'S son and when il was not ac-
cepted for Wood by DR. E,ctor he had
returned il To Clark. Bickford also
explained the purchase of timber land
owned by Representative Mclaughlin
prior to the meeting of the legislature
He cOntended that the property was
worth more than had been paid for it
and that the timber was necessary in
Clark's business. In his deal with Me
i.aughlin witness never talked with
Fam concerning the senatorial Situa-
Gon nor tried 10 influence him in that
connection to vote for Clark.
ON his crOSS-cXamination Bickford
stated that he was counsel for Clark
but after saying that he would not
tell what his fees had been. he said
that all told Clark had paid him S.
800 as counsel. He also said William
McDermOtt had refunded TO him the
money expended in the campaign. and
he thought McDermott was engaged
in Clark'S interest.
