Two r,,,ed English Girls, Pony FARM

E EsEi
Two Titled English Girl-' Pony Farip
London Leader: 1t is Kent, the
garden of England, that bonsts a
novel farm run by women. Here the
wild, shaggy little pony that, with
long, tangled name md flowing tail,
scampers about in the boisterous
winds over the rocky wilds of Shetland
finds n second home, where his coat
is carefully brushed down and his
Maynard locks combcd and crimped
according to the civilized %neatness
that rules the modern world. Not
that the pony minds it, in fact he
seems to enjoy %colonizing in this cor
ner of England, and most dutifully
appreciates his lew quarters, with its
plentiful pasture, good stables and
kind mistrcsses, to whom he is ever a
pet.
Starting with n single Shetland
pony the Ladies Ecstelhs and Doro-
thea Hope, the owners Of this unique
farm, took up the breeding Of these
ponies as a hobby, and then went Oh
to make the undertaking a serious
business, and at the same time a big
success. Country life appealed much
more to their taste than did the rush
of town, and hesides this these two
sisters of the present Lord Chamber
lain had already had considerable eS-
pericnce with animals, and no pursuit
could have been found more to their.
liking than this Of pony farming-thet
fancy for pretty little Shetlhnd ponies
making the farming still more inter-
estIng. And so the Edtlbridge hnder-
taking grows and pfospers.

Richmond, Va, correspondence of
the New York Herald: Captain Page
McCarty, an editor, and known as the
last of the Virginia duelists, died this
evening at the Retreat for the Sick,
after a long illness.
There was one episode in his life
which surrounded him with eNcep-
tional romantic interest. That was
the duel over the noted beauty, Miss
Triplett, who was called "the belle of
the SOUTH"
mccarthy was one of her many adj
Both men belonged to cultured Nir-
friends. They had rollicked and had
studied together in the University Of
Virginia during the COS, and after
their graduation had entered into the
gay and fascinating social life of
Richmond. Both were favorites in So
ciety, and were devoted to each other
until u stronger love filled their
hearts.
mccarthy was dashing, fearless und'
quick to afenge an insult. His col
lege churn was equally courageous and
hot tempered. Miss Triplett, the reign
ing beauty, showed no partially for
one of the two bosom friends until
II night in April, 1873, when Il ball
was given in Richmond.
Mcrdecai and McCarty were there.
Each pressed his suit for Miss Trip
let's hand. The capricious beauty
showered all her fnvors thai night on
Mordecai and her other admirers,
finally sighting McCarty in so
marked a manner that he left the
house in "a rage, vowing he would see
her no more.
There appeared a few days after
ward i'm one of the local newspapers
a poem in which the name of Mary
appeared. Those who were ware of
the incident at the ball knew at once
that the MARY" was Miss T'riplett.
MTordecai was at breakfast in u res
tnurant with n friend when he read
the publication. %Crumpling the pa
per in his hand. he EXCHANGED: Page
mccarthy wrote those verses, and l

GENERAL CRONJE AND
 ,.. LORD ROBERTS MEET

Paardeberg, Tuesday, February 27.-Ma- juba Day, a. m.-The British camp was awakened. by the continued rattle of rifle fire at daybreak, and then news arrived thatthes Canadians, while building a trench quite close to the enemy were fusiladed at a range of fifty yards. The Canadians gal lantly worked forward and occupied the edge of the trenches along the river, entire ly enfilading the Boers. This movement was followed by cessation of the fire ex- cept an occasional solitary report.
 Suddenly a regiment stationed on the crest of a hill perceived white flag and burst into cheers, thus first announcing the surrender of General Cronje.
 Shortly afterwards a note reached Lord Roberts bringing tidings of the Boers, un- conditional surrender. General Prettyman was sent to accept the surrender.
 About o'clock small group of men ap- peared in the distance, crossing the plain towards Headquarters. The latter being appraised of General Cronjes approach, Lord Roberts went to the front in the modest cart in which he sleeps and or dered a guard of the Seaforths to line up The group of horsemen then appeared On General Prettymans left rode an eld- erly clad in rough short overcoat, white brfmmed hat, ordinary tweed trousers and brown shoes. It was the redoubtable Cronje. d1is face was burned almost back and his curly beard was tdnged with gray

CHANGE OF ELECTION LAWS
Republicans of Kentucky Want Reform
 in Southern States

Frankfort, Ky, February 28.-The repub evening and, after long discussion con- corning election laws in the south, and par ticularly the Goebel election law in this state, decided to make the initiative in a movement to bring the matter before con- gree. The purpose is to call a convention of the states of Kentucky, Tennessee, Ala bama, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina and South Carolina, at which convention action is to be taken memorializing con- gross to amend the national election laws so as to take out of the hands of the elec- ton machinery of the various state govern ments the details of at least congressional and presidential elections.
 Several prominent republican leaders, in addition to the republican members of both houses, were present. National Com- mftteeman John w. Yerkes was among the leaders present and made a speech. The speaker declared that the election laws in the states mentioned practically amount to disfranchisement of the republican voters living in those states and the call for the convention will invite all persons who op- pose partisan election laws to participate in it. A committee was appointed to secure the cooperation of republicans in tht states named and all over the country ant interest them in the movement in favo of election reform
